SYNOPSIS:

It was to be a great day. It was the day that DEAN MOONEY would, finally, be allowed to tear down the old, abandoned Teke House. Closed and shuttered for over thirty years, the Teke House represented lawlessness, defiance, wild parties and a damn good time. But that day was not to be. A former member of the Teke House died and left a hundred million dollars to the university if they fulfilled two conditions. They must reopen the Teke House, and they must accept any descendants of that last bunch of misfits. It is Dean Mooney's worst nightmare. He hires two henchmen to make life so miserable for the young Tekes, they will want to go straight home to mom. LESTER and OTIS are foiled at every turn until they finally succeed by filming one of the Teke's mother while she is taking a shower. Outraged at seeing his naked mother on television, CODY EVANSWORTH declares war on the dean, and so it begins. It's Homecoming Weekend, and everyone has turned out for the big football game. Dean Mooney will soon retire, and a small ceremony is planned for halftime. But the Tekes have different plans. The crowd doesn't spell out, "Good Luck, Dean Mooney", and the covered statue is not a likeness of him either. Dean Mooney is furious! He orders Lester and Otis to blow up the Teke House, and surprisingly enough, they do. With no place to live but their cars, the Tekes plan one last assult that will expose the corrupt Dean Mooney for what he truly is. At his retirement party and in front of the student body, the Board of Regents, alumni and the press, the Tekes present the dean as a cheat in college and a cheat on his wife. In the end it is learned there is a clause in the will that states that if there is any corruption in the administration, the money is to go to the Teke House. The Tekes rebuild, not in the grand style of Greek architecture, but a simple, wood house like before.
