Two salesmen, Wheeler and Danny, find themselves at a crossroads after an array of poor decisions leads to community service instead of jail time. Their offense? A series of irresponsible acts culminating in a major public disturbance. As part of their sentence, they are assigned to an unconventional mentoring program, a last-ditch effort to set their lives on a better path. Tasked with the responsibility of being role models, they are each paired with a young charge. Wheeler is matched with Ronnie, a foul-mouthed and unmanageable kid, while Danny finds himself trying to mentor Augie, a nerdy teenager with a profound obsession with medieval live-action role-playing games.

The assignment begins as a nightmare for the mismatched duo, as their attempts at mentoring are met with defiance, mischief, and outright rejection. Wheeler struggles to connect with Ronnie, whose defensive exterior and penchant for trouble make him a formidable challenge. Simultaneously, Danny's cynical outlook and personal turmoil clash with Augie's immersive fantasy world, leading to frustration on both sides. As they navigate their community service, the two salesmen embark on a journey of self-discovery, learning about responsibility, friendship, and the importance of genuine connections. Despite the chaos and comedic mishaps, the experience presents an opportunity for growth and an unexpected chance to make a positive impact on their young protégés' lives.
