When Jack and his beautiful wife Colleen are evicted from their home, Colleen asks Eric to persuade his flatmate Uncle Angel to allow the couple to stay with them for a few days. Eric is unable to resist her, but after they move into the living room they make themselves unwelcome. Having lost all the money they have borrowed from Uncle Angel to go to the casino, the three are caught stealing from his bank account and the old man kicks them all out.

When Jack discovers that Uncle Angel’s living on a Dutch pension (that Eric draws on his behalf), he hatches a plan to get rid of the old Dutchman and keep drawing his pension for themselves.

Two brothers, Jack and Eric, have been brought up in the way of the Lord.
