Plot Summary:
|
Career black hat John Lyshitski (Dax Shepard) wants retribution on the now-grey pass sentence who put him away. He gets a prime opportunity when the measure's son, Nelson (Choice Arnett), nonetheless faultless of a crime, is convicted and sent to imprison. John immediately has himself thrown secretly into the clink to become Nelson's cellmate and make sure he gets the full prison experience.
