Plot

Lynch, an emotionless food connoisseur, stops a thief who stole a phone from Mimi in a railway station. Falling in for her instantly, he doesn't notice that she accidentally switched phones with him. She later gives Lynch's phone to her boyfriend, Abe Klein who works as a locksmith. When Lynch's employers try to assign him another assassination over the phone, Abe and his pot-smoking slacker artist friend go to warn the victim, Mr. Fish, hoping for a reward.
Concerned by Abe's behaviour over the phone, the employer has another operative, Virgil, who hasn't met Lynch in person, to check up on him. Virgil has a Czech killer, Dragan, brought in to deal with "Lynch".
All the while, Danny Devine, a foul-tempered, foul-mouthed loan shark, is driving around trying to collect from various deadbeat clients including Abe.
