　　天欣外事职业高中学生林奇是个聪明的男孩，保龄球打的帅，鸡尾酒也调得好，他就要毕业了，可实习的饭店竟是他爸爸工作的地方。 在妈妈的参与下，他与爸爸达成“协议”：在饭店里他们父子俩装做素不相识。 实习开始了，一心想当模特的杨美妮居然没来，找了个打工妹陈小妹冒名顶替，她干活踏踏实实，能吃苦、肯用心，同学们也就不捅破，认可了她。 饭店最近不景气，听说外方董事长劳格斯要来，王经理忧心忡忡。一天果真来了位叫劳格斯的珠宝商，王经理认定这是微服私访的董事长，让大家好生服侍，待为贵宾。同天到饭店的还有个华裔老太太李碧云，她像是故地重游，对饭店的样样事都上心打听。 珠宝商丢了一包珠宝，正巧那天是陈小妹当班，饭店怀疑她，又发现她是冒名顶替的，就“炒了她的鱿鱼”。 李碧云告诉林奇，从前她在这饭店吃过一道名菜叫“百川归海”，可现在没有了。 一日林奇在家中无意中发现爸爸以前得了许多奖状，原来爸爸是有名的厨师，是“百川归海”的创造者，后来手受了伤，才干起了清洁工。 同学们发现珠宝商有梦游的毛病，珠宝是他自己梦游时藏了起来，陈小妹是清白的。 李碧云终于公开了身份；她是外方的董事长，她看到实习生们的出色表现，加强了继续合作下去的信心。陈小妹也破例进了职业高中。

　　在明尼苏达州北部的“边界水域”中，六个老朋友之间的周末露营之旅在神秘的环境下死亡后变得悲惨起来，随着他们企图在本集团内揭露杀手，引发进一步的动荡。

Two codependent best friends become addicted to the heroin-like touch of an alien narcissist who may or may not be trying to take over the world. Writer and director Addison Heimann’s second feature film is provocatively comedic, inventive, and insane in the best possible way. An ode to the deliriously stylistic lens of Japanese cinema in the ’60s and ’70s, Touch Me dares to “go there” with its themes of mental health, desire, and Hentai-infused sexual abandon. Olivia Taylor Dudley sinks into character to portray a fractured and wandering human being in desperate need of a life-affirming touch, while Lou Taylor-Pucci’s tracksuit-clad alien persona is played to delightful perfection. Jordan Gavaris and Marlene Forte round out an impeccable cast of far-out characters who manage to be at once acrimonious yet relatable. The end result is a weird, wild, and frenzied fever dream with so much to unpack. While we may not be able to relieve ourselves of self-doubt, deep-seated childhood trauma, and debilitating anxiety with the simple touch of an extraterrestrial being, maybe life isn’t so bad after all?
