Plot
Chris and Chester, two slacker pals, are approached by a mysterious entity only identifying herself as "Nine." She commands them to find "Ten", which they initially laugh off, but soon find themselves mysteriously driven to attempt. Confused and at a loss for how to approach such a vague goal, they try a number of strategies - stealing a road sign from Interstate 10, taking ten different drugs simultaneously, buying 10 shares of stock in a friend's crazy plan to open a Brazilian nut import/export business, and attempting to attend a hip hop concert headlined by 10 acts. The pair begin to question their reality. They come to believe that they can speak perfect Ancient Greek and realize in horror that both they, and all their friends, may in fact be Platonic ideals, and the creation of "Ten" may require a combination of smaller numbers - but which ones will add up to the desired result?
