Plot
Chris and Chester are best friends working together in dead-end jobs in a health food-themed supermarket in LA. They both have very different outlooks on life. Chris very much lives in the moment, while Chester focuses on his long-term goal of moving to Brazil.
Chester asks Chris to cover his register while he meets up with Carlo who has expressed interest in buying his Craigslisted 90s Corolla. Arriving at their meeting point, Carlo asks him to drive, supposedly to see how it drives. However, his associate Paco climbs into the trunk with an automatic weapon. Chester discovers he's being used as a get-away driver for a drive-by. After the Guatemalans shower a rival gang with bullets, Chester takes them on a gridlocked freeway and escapes on foot.
Chris's day starts with his 35 y.o. diabetic brother Johnny videoing him pranking him, which goes viral. As he's a ticket scalper, Chris swipes two tickets. At work he covers Chester's register and tells customers they can only pay cash, so he can skim money to recover his impounded car. Discovering the tickets are fakes, he arranges to meet legit scalper Jay Morrison, swaps the tickets and steals Jay's stash of drugs.
Supermarket manager Danny, a gambler and addict, calls Jay for coke although he already owes him 3,000 dollars. Under threat of bodily harm, he cleans out a register to give him 1,000 dollars. Given an hour to come up with the rest, Danny calls Chester into his office and tells him he discovered that he and Chris had stolen food to resell to another supermarket and threatens to call the police. Chester offers to give him the money from his car sale.
Mr. Winters from divisional management comes a day early to oversee the supermarket and how it's run for the next two weeks. Brooke briefs Danny and Winters on the register tallies, revealing the 800 dollar shortfall caused by Chris while he was operating Chester's register. Danny realises that he himself must have been captured on camera emptying a register. Two undercover LAPD cops approach him, pressuring him to help them catch Jay.
When Jay arrives home and discovers that Chris switched the tickets, he gets angry and calls Sahara a thot. She slaps him and asks hims if he is gay or into other girls. Jay promptly breaks up with her. Soon after, he comes across Chris and Chester on the highway, shooting out the newly-recovered car's windows and tires.
Chris and Chester hitch to the show, and are picked up by Sahara and her friend. Despite their valid tickets, they cannot enter because the venue is already filled to capacity. They jump the fence, and once inside Chester forces Chris to come clean. Jay finds them in the toilets, but before he can exact revenge for the tickets and the moonrocks, a high Chester knocks him down.
Early the next morning, the buddies arrive back in LA with Sahara and Carmen, and Chris gives Chester 1,000 dollars from selling the moonrocks. Jay arrives to deal to Danny at the supermarket and the LAPD take him in. A short while later they return as Winters and Brooke have found footage implicating Danny in the theft of 1,800 dollars. Carlo and Paco are taken in for auto theft and Chester flies to Brazil.
