Plot

Chloe Lawrence (Mary-Kate Olsen) is a very driven teenager and leader of her high school's Model United Nations team. After performing particularly well in a competition, the team is selected to attend the international Model UN competition in London, England. One of the team members, Randall , is unable to attend. Chloe's twin sister, Riley (Ashley Olsen), steps in to fill the gap – to get closer to Chloe's attractive teammate, Brian, more than anything else. When the group arrives in London, they discover that someone is already representing their usual country: China. Undaunted, they improvise and end up representing England. Plenty of sight-seeing and shopping ensues, while Chloe takes a fancy to James Browning, the son of an English noble, Lord Browning, who is pressuring his son to achieve more. As the competition progresses, Chloe's over-competitive nature stalls her budding romance, Riley tries to get closer to Brian, and the team earns both admiration and anger for their unconventional methods. Nevertheless, tribulations are weathered and lessons learned about sportsmanship, overlooked friends, and learning to enjoy one's youth.

Trivia

* Riley doesn't directly answer her oral essay question. She's off topic. She describes the Royal Family's position in the UK, not the UK's position on the rest of the world in the 21st century.
* Chloe and Riley are Ashley and Mary Kate's respective character names in their short-lived TV series "So Little Time", and the hairstyles of both sets of characters are similar too. The theme song of the series is also played many times.
*A significant vignette shows the twins shopping at the Camden Market in London, which suffered an historic fire on February 9, 2008.

Goofs

*When Chloe, Riley, Brian, Rachel and Dylan are playing a game of catch to test each other on their knowledge of England, Chloe incorrectly replies "Her Royal Highness" instead of "Her Majesty" when asked the Queen's form of address. However, neither her sister nor any of her friends corrects her.
