The short film is a uniquely hilarious glimpse into a brief encounter of two assassins with one of their victims. The setting is of a dim-lit luxurious room where a man is about to meet his end. However, instead of the usual violence and grimness that could be expected from such a setting, the viewer is surprised with humour invoked at the expense of the unsuspecting man who will soon be killed, but with utmost politeness and courtesy. The film exhibits efficient use of limited space as almost the entirety of the plot unfolds in a single corner of the same room. It further goes ahead to prove how a good story, when coupled with strong performances, indeed makes for an unforgettable product.

The narrative introduces us to two characters, Roger and Breanne - assassins who are struggling to stay afloat during the pandemic. It further attempts to experiment with its approach by never revealing the faces of the characters while sharing their story. 
Even though the job at hand requires them to commit a murder, and move on from there, a longer glimpse at their partnership reveals more forces at play. From concealed affections to sushi dates to the dearth of work ‘projects’ that pay, the partners discuss it all. 
However, just when the story seems to have reached its culmination, a plot twist subverts it all, enabling the narrative to share its final flourish with the viewer, in an attempt to enhance itself, while also offering a little play on its title.
