"Ever wonder what might have happened if The Producers had been involved with Enron?
It all starts, when Jim Jepperson finds a dead stranger sitting at his office desk. Moments later, police arrive to arrest him. Within the hour, the phony policemen die in an accident, all three corpses have disappeared, and Jim's only clue is the mysterious man in a Goober hat.
