...they will vote their conscience.

A group of singers called Forever Plaid are killed in a contretemps with a school bus. 25 years later, they're back on earth again--four well-shaven ghosts with their hair parted at the extreme left, dressed in white dinner jackets adorned with bow ties. And they're staging "the biggest comeback since Lazarus...
