Jonathan is a cowardly kopi kia who is fired and replaced by a Mainland Chinese "dragon lady" doubling as his boss's mistress. With his recently retrenched friend Leon, they embark on various schemes to survive - all of which fail before taking off. Finally, they are arrested for hawking pirated VCDs, and face jail or a $40,000 fine. Jonathan and Leon split after a petty fight, and he is left to raise the sum on his own. After a chance encounter with Hong Kong celebrity Law Kar-ying, Jonathan strikes 4D, pays off the fine and buys over the coffeeshop after his boss runs into debt.
