Synopsis

High schooler Ferris, his girlfriend Sloane (Mia Sara), and his best bud Cameron (Alan Ruck) are off on a spontaneous romp through Chicago after faking a series of excuses to get each other out of school for the day. Meanwhile the principal Ed Rooney (Jeffrey Jones), who knows of Ferris' devious ways, is nasty and scheming as he investigates Ferris’ absence and is foiled at every turn. Ferris' jealous sister Jeanie (Jennifer Grey) has a few adventures of her own when she ends up meeting a leather-jacketed bad boy (played by Charlie Sheen) in the police station and makes out with him in front of her mother! So barf up a lung, forge a ‘sick note’ from the parents and tag along on the funniest adventure to ever sweep through the Windy City.
