Synopsis

The film follows Durell (Ice Cube) and LeeJohn (Tracy Morgan) in Baltimore, Maryland, who are best friends and bumbling petty criminals. At the beginning of the film the two have just began working in a store that repairs electronic goods and the manager is impressed by Durell's skillful ability to fix things. LeeJohn gets both men fired when he attempts to steal a TV from the store. Durrel attempts to find another honest job but no one he asks is willing to hire him and he has stated a criminal record on his application form. LeeJohn gets them a one-off job for a local criminal or con man Blahka who will pay them $2000. While attempting to deliver the ten stolen wheelchairs worth $1200 each, they lose the merchandise in a police chase. They are sentenced to 5000 hours of community services. Then they are told they have 24 hours to pay $12,000 to cover the loss or they will be shot dead. Simultaneously, Durell's son will move to Atlanta unless he gives his ex some money to pay her lease. First they try to get a loan from a guy named Mordecai at a massage parlor. LeeJohn goes to get a massage first but is scared away when his massuse is Mordecai (a man). They come up with a desperate scheme to rob their neighborhood church. Instead, they are forced to deal with much more than they bargained for.

When they try to steal the money they find that the money has already been stolen. Enraged they both hold the church hostage until the money turns up. Durell then goes to fix the broken air conditioner while LeeJohn watches over the hostages. He expresses his sadness, and is comforted by Sister Doris.

Meanwhile, Durell and Tianna go to fix the air conditioner. After an awkward conversation, they finally get the air going, and Durell orders everyone back to the lobby. Then the blind, deaf janitor finds the missing money. Durell receives a phone call from his son, which he is ashamed to answer. Momma T then asks for Durell's purpose for what he is doing. Durell answers that he is doing it for his son. Momma T then says that Durell is doing it for himself, as he is blaming everyone but the person responsible, himself.

He says that he will not lose his son and leaves the money. Unfortunately, cops have surrounded the church, blocking their way out. The pastor tells them to escape out the back, which leads to a chase which gets the two of them caught. At the trial, which the entire church is attending, The Deacon says that they have been accused of stealing 64,000 dollars. Although the amount of said money collected was half of what the Deacon claimed was stolen, which puts the deacon at question. Since none of the people stand when witnesses are called, the case is dropped. He goes back to Omunique's apartment where he is confronted by the men who gave them the wheelchairs.

After he explains his situation, the two men allow him to go and get his son. Omunique opens the door yelling at Durell asking him where did the money come from. The money was left at her doorstep and Durell tells her it was a gift and to please don't take his son away. Saying his son is all he has. she tells him that yes we will stay. In the end LeeJohn and Durrel appear much happier and it is implied Durrel is closer to his ex-wife and son while LeeJohn remains close to Doris and Timothy. The remaining money is used to restore the community and Tianna is seen painting a community centre.
