SYNOPSIS
This story centres around Philip, a moderately average salesman, going
through a messy divorce. Deciding to inject some much needed excitement and cash
into his life, he devises a scheme to rob a large department store of a day’s
Christmas takings. However, realising he can’t succeed alone, he enlists the
help of two rather naïve business colleagues. The first, John, has lived an
exemplary life until, on one fleeting moment of madness, he commits professional
suicide by fiddling his expense account, resulting in his dismissal from work
and financial ruin for his wife and family. The second, Dave, is also a
struggling salesman with a high maintenance wife, so with a little gentle
persuasion from Philip, both are enticed into his get-rich-quick plan. However,
when Dave and John’s wives Gemma and Gillian become entangled in the plot,
things don’t go quite as planned. With their husbands behaving
uncharacteristically, the pair determine to investigate their fidelity,
resulting in unexpected consequences.
