Plot

She's All That is the story of a popular high school jock, Zach Siler (Freddie Prinze Jr.) who is dumped by his girlfriend. He tells his best friend, Dean (Paul Walker) that she is replaceable, although his friend disagrees and makes him a bet to see weather or not he could turn any girl into the prom queen. Dean picks Laney Boggs (Rachael Leigh Cook) as the girl that Zach must turn into the prom queen. Zach begins trying to make a connection with Laney, who is hesitant at first, but eventually becomes comfortable with him and his group of friends. After taking her sister's advice and getting a make-over, Laney is humiliated by Zach's ex-girlfriend. While working through Laney's make-over, Zach begins to have feelings for her and falls in love. At prom, the details of the bet are made public, again humiliating Laney. Zach begs for Laney's forgiveness, which she gives, but makes him go to graduation naked, in order to humiliate him.
