Synopsis/Details
Benny, a hapless small-time drug dealer in a bunny costume, is caught red-handed and red-faced after seducing the wife of his ruthless boss, Vinnie the Viper. Now tied to a chair with a gun to his face, Benny must talk his way out of certain death. What follows is a wild, fast-paced descent into chaos, told through freeze-frames, fourth-wall breaks, and absurd flashbacks. As sex, stupidity, and seduction collide, Maria ( the boss’s dangerously charming wife) manipulates both men, while Vinnie’s fury is only eclipsed by his bruised ego. Armed with nothing but desperation, dick jokes, and philosophical bullshit, Benny scrambles to save his own furry hide. But will his fast-talking antics earn him a second chance or a bullet?
