About
Rent on Apple TV+ or buy on Apple TV+.
When a disc containing memoirs of a former CIA analyst falls into the hands of gym employees, Linda and Chad, they see a chance to make enough money for Linda to have life-changing cosmetic surgery. Predictably, events whirl out of control for the duo, and those in their orbit.
Chaos erupts when two dim-witted gym employees mistake a discarded disc for top-secret intelligence. This frantic comedy turns the spy genre on its head by replacing grand conspiracies with sheer, hilarious stupidity.
