Sam and Phil finally come face to face with the elusive Mr Stevens, who they find is heavily in debt to Mr Lau, a local underground casino boss who has kidnapped Stevens's wife, Scarlett.
With no money, no skills and no idea, Phil and Sam are sent to rescue Scarlett. Sure enough it doesn't go to plan, and in the melee our accidental heroes end up accidentally taking an angry hostage of their own - Mr Lau's nephew, Jason.
