The IRS is after widower Harry Connick Jr. (as Tripp Spence). Since he doesn't have the money, Mr. Connick runs away to Las Vegas, with athletic young son Shawn Salinas (as Derrick). They darken their blond hair, to become "Glen Ryan" and his son "Mickey". Clear-glassed spectacles assist in the disguise. When questioned about the lack of prescription strength, Connick says his son is "slightly" nearsighted. Apparently, there are no school nurses in Las Vegas.

One of the benefits of the new identities is that young Salinas gets to remain a 12-year-old, because "Mickey" is twelve - so, father Connick can play him in "Little League" another year. A better idea would have been for Connick to find his son an older identity. But, many of the other "Little League" kids look older, especially the Cubans. If they are taking steroids, it isn't shown. "Mickey" is curiously immoral, for a "family film". But, Salinas performs the title role well.
