In 1986, three best friend are planning their future. They return a "lost" cat to the neighbor lady for a $40 reward which they had stolen. Fast forward thirty years and find Vince is living on Chris's couch. He is selling vacuum cleaners door to door and must just quit. Chris works at a car repair garage.

All three friends are jobless. Vince sees a newspaper article offering a $25 million reward for the capture of a drug lord. Using Kurt's wife's credit card, they buy first class tickets to South America. They land in Colombia thinking its Mexico. Kurt likes the cocaine drug life but is captured by Diego who wants to kill the gringo. Cartel boss Garcia likes Kurt's money saving ideas on drug distribution through Canada.
