Ralph and Sylvia Nebula plan to spend the summer at Deepdip Cha-cha's Fun Ashram for Kids, until they discover it's just another fat camp in disguise. The siblings run away, joining their friend Mavis Goldfarb at a dude ranch, where the trio helps prop up the local economy with a flying saucer visitation. Lacking the emphatic "fat prejudice" focus of Fat Camp Commandos, this sequel is still an enjoyably silly romp.
