Plot Summary
In a bid to re-establish his relationship with his son Max, which has drifted apart slowly over the years, Goofy decides to take his son out on a fishing vacation to Lake Destiny, Idaho, where he and his father went when Goofy was Max's age. Oblivious to the fact that times have changed since his era, Goofy believes this vacation will be like no other, especially when he's spending some good quality time with his son.
However, on the other side of the fence, this vacation is Max's worst nightmare, and it couldn't have happened at a worser time- His original plan was to go out with his dream date Roxanne to her friend Stacey's end of year party. With his father's vacation already on plan, Max not only faces losing what he's worked hard for, but he also faces the possibility of losing his dream date to another guy, thus breaking his heart in the process.
Being the typical adolescent, Max's only chance to perserve his relationship with Roxanne is to lie to her by telling her that he's going to Los Angeles to attend a Pop Music concert of Powerline (whom is the biggest pop icon in the film- and an obvious mould of Michael Jackson and Bobby Brown, who is voiced by Tevin Campbell) and that he'll be dancing with him on his final number. Falling for his lie, Max now faces a huge problem- and it's one that he has to fix. When his father named him as the "navigator" of the trip, his luck finally begins to brighten up, with Goofy assuring Max that he will not even look at the map. Max uses this opportunity to alter the destination of the trip to Los Angeles.
Throughout the journey, the two begin to re-establish their close bond, though they also confront each other's problems in the process of doing so. Max defends himself with the fact that he never wanted to go with his father because he's growing up, whereas Goofy tells Max that he just wants to be a part of his life. The respect that once existed between the two grows and is replenished, and Goofy, hearing of Max's tale of Roxanne, agrees to help his son get to the concert.
Despite keeping true to his promise that he will attend the concert, Max decides to tell Roxanne the truth and reveals the fact that he lied and doesn't know Powerline. When asked why he did it, he claimed that he wanted her to like him, only to find out that she already liked him, and that she felt the same way about him too.
