Karl, an aspiring actor, only gets casting calls for roles he can't play - bad guys. His friend and drug-dealer Josef has an idea: Bring Karl to a drug deal to give him the experience he lacks. They pick up a run-down car with a drug-filled trunk and head towards the drop-off. On the way, Josef maneuvers his way out of a car breakdown and an arrest, but is powerless when it turns out the trunk has flown open and the drugs are gone.
