Steve and Doug end up at the owner's table, then at a wild pool party at the owner's mansion, where they lose their virginity (simultaneously but in separate bedrooms) to two miniskirted gold diggers who think the guys are important. They have a fender bender with their celebrity idol Richard Grieco (the erstwhile star of ''21 Jump Street,'' playing himself), and he gets them into the Roxbury, the chic club of the moment, just so they won't sue him. Or so you'd think - until one night their luck appears to change. The house is expensive but largely tasteless, and the cultural level is such that when the daughter of friends is asked to sing, accompanied by the living room piano, she does the theme song from ''Cheers.''

It turns out that they live in Los Angeles with their parents, a vacuous blonde who enjoys cosmetic surgery (Loni Anderson) and the gruff owner of a fake-plant store (Dan Hedaya). Most people probably never gave much thought to Steve (Will Ferrell) and Doug's (Chris Kattan) home life. Still, do you really want to spend an hour and a half with them in a dark room?

The Butabi brothers movie, ''A Night at the Roxbury,'' is a lot like the brothers themselves: undeniably pathetic but strangely lovable. As one unimpressed young woman tells Doug, ''You and your brother are ugly, pathetic losers.''

Week after week, they drive to the trendy clubs, appall the women they try to dance with and deal with rejection by trying even harder to look cool. Steve and Doug Butabi have been silently bobbing their heads to the music on NBC's ''Saturday Night Live'' for three seasons now.
