Check out what happened in A Night at the Roxbury!

In the midst of their nocturnal escapades, wealthy Yemeni American brothers Steve (Will Ferrell) and Doug Butabi (Chris Kattan) revel in their shared love for Eurodance, a genre that fuels their unbridled enthusiasm for club-hopping. With an uncanny ability to synchronize their dance moves, they flail about on the dance floors of various nightclubs, leaving a trail of awkward silences and rejected advances in their wake. Their ultimate goal is to gain entry into the fabled Roxbury nightclub, where they are consistently rebuffed by its imposing bouncer (Michael Clarke Duncan). Meanwhile, their aspirations extend beyond mere partying, as they dream of establishing their own club where wannabes can mingle alongside A-list celebrities.

Their nocturnal adventures are juxtaposed with their humdrum daytime routine at their father's artificial plant store. Steve and Doug spend most of their working hours in idle chatter, scheming about opening a nightclub that will surpass the Roxbury's prestige. Doug, meanwhile, finds creative ways to flirt with "Credit Vixen" (Meredith Scott Lynn), an unsuspecting card approval associate he encounters over the phone.

In a bid to strengthen family ties and business partnerships, their father, Kamehl Butabi (Dan Hedaya), hopes that Steve will marry Emily (Molly Shannon), the daughter of their neighbor and rival businessman, Fred Sanderson (Dwayne Hickman). Emily harbors a deep affection for Steve, but Doug's disdain for her makes it clear that he won't be taking part in this arranged union.

As a gesture of goodwill, Barbara (Loni Anderson) equips her sons with behemoth cell phones and grants access to the fake-plant store's delivery van, hoping these tools will serve as lifelines in case of an emergency. Despite this generosity, the brothers are once again rebuffed by the doorman at the Roxbury, a trendy hotspot that has become the epicenter of their social aspirations.

Undeterred, the siblings embark on a quest to find an ATM, only to collide with Richard Grieco (no actor name provided) in a fender-bender. In a calculated move to avoid legal repercussions, Griego leverages his fame to secure the brothers' entry into the exclusive Roxbury club. There, they cross paths with Benny Zadir (Chazz Palminteri), the enigmatic owner of the establishment.

Zadir is captivated by the brothers' audacious concept for their own nightclub: a space where the exterior and interior mirror each other, featuring identical couches and music. He is impressed by their innovative thinking and schedules a meeting with them for the following day.

Meanwhile, the brothers encounter Vivica (Gigi Rice) and Cambi (Elisa Donovan), two women who are smitten with their supposed wealth. The brothers, in their characteristic awkwardness, play along, leaving the ladies convinced they've found themselves in "serious relationships."

As the evening wears on, the brothers attend an after-party at Zadir's lavish estate, where they annoy his driver and bodyguard, Dooey (Colin Quinn), by incessantly stopping for fluffy whipped cream and making jokes about sleeping with their parents. At Zadir's abode, Steve proposes a novel idea: adding a glass top to the swimming pool to expand the dancing area and create a visually striking effect of dancing above water. Zadir is impressed by their ingenuity and looks forward to their meeting.

However, Dooey exacts revenge by denying the brothers entry into Zadir's office for their scheduled meeting. He claims that Zadir was inebriated the previous night and has no recollection of their encounter. In reality, Zadir had wanted to see them but lacked their contact information.

As the dust settles on Vivica and Cambi's sudden departure, the Butabi brothers are left to pick up the pieces of their shattered illusions. Doug and Steve engage in a heated debate over whose fault it is that their luxurious lifestyle has come crashing down around them. In a bold move, Doug decides to distance himself from his brother and moves out of their shared bedroom into the guest house, seeking solace from the harsh reality.

Meanwhile, Steve finds himself trapped in an arranged engagement with Emily, courtesy of his overbearing father. The wedding ceremony, held amidst the tranquil backdrop of the Butabi residence's lush backyard, is suddenly disrupted by Doug's uninvited appearance. Soaked and disheveled, he stumbles into the proceedings, sparking a chain reaction that ultimately leads to the wedding being called off.

As the dust settles on this chaotic scene, Craig (Lochlyn Munro), the brothers' personal trainer, reveals his long-held feelings for Emily, sending shockwaves through the gathering. As the stunned guests begin to disperse, Grieco (a guest at the wedding) takes Mr. Butabi under his wing, offering words of wisdom that help the patriarch understand Steve's reluctance to commit and his overly harsh treatment of Doug.

With tensions eased, the brothers are finally able to reconcile with their father, and Doug returns to sharing a bedroom with Steve. Their newfound harmony is short-lived, however, as they stumble upon a swanky new nightclub that seems tailor-made for them. The building's unique design – an exterior resembling the interior of a club and an interior mimicking the streets – was actually pitched by Doug and Steve themselves to their friend Zadir earlier in the film.

As they attempt to gain entry into this exclusive hotspot, they're stunned to find their names already on the VIP list. Zadir reveals that he's rewarded their entrepreneurial spirit by making them part-owners of the club, bringing their dreams full circle. As they bask in the glow of their newfound success, they encounter two familiar faces: Doug's phone operator from the credit card company, affectionately known as "Credit Vixen," and a police officer with whom Steve had previously flirted while receiving a traffic citation.
