After leaving a party at a women's dormitory (aka the "virgin vault"), Matthew is trapped in an elevator with an unknown, and unseen, woman when the power goes out. Matthew and this unknown woman have sex in the dark. When Matthew wakes up in the morning — still in the elevator — he finds himself alone with a pair of her panties.
On a mission to find his mystery maiden by finding a matching bra for the panties, Matthew becomes the maintenance boy of the virgin vault. He releases mice and goes room to room setting traps. He convinces the panicked women to leave the room and then starts to look for a match. This does not prove successful, and he continues to break things (such as the air conditioning) in an effort to find his woman. His roommate Rod (James DeBello) keeps telling him to give up, and together they philosophize about men and women.
While searching one room, Matthew finds himself trapped in the bathroom when the occupant returns. Matthew is attacked by Wendy (Larisa Oleynik), until she recognizes him as a high school classmate. Wendy decides to help Matthew in his quest to find his mystery maiden. Later we learn that she is also looking for a woman because she is a closet lesbian.
In addition to searching by hand, Matthew puts an advertisement in the school newspaper to meet him in the basement. One night, the mystery maiden shows up telling him to stop looking for her.
Despite the end of the semester approaching Matthew isn't detered and disguises himself in drag to keep searching.
Desperation has set in, and so Matthew appeals to his mystery maiden by proclaiming his love for to the whole dormitory. Afterwards he determines his mystery maiden is Patty (Emmanuelle Chriqui) — the same one he's had sex with since the elevator incident. Previously he beat up and maimed her abusive boyfriend Crick. She initially rejects him because she thinks that he only sees her as some slut. However she warms to him after he tells of his undying love for her.
