When you decide to go home for a visit after being away for seven years, it is probably a good idea not to drop by your local bar and get completely shit-faced. Particularly if you didn’t leave under the best of circumstances. Melanie Carmichael (Reese Witherspoon) is now a successful New York fashion designer but she needs to get her high school husband to sign the divorce papers he’s been reluctant to do. A boatload of shots loosens her tongue to the extent that she outs Bobby Ray (Ethan Embry), her old high school chum, and moves on to confirm the rumour that she married Jake Perry (Josh Lucas) because he got her pregnant under the bleachers. Topping off her evening out, she pukes regally all over the front seat of Jake’s truck as he tries to take her home. Ahhh… those high school memories.
