Synopsis:
In a not-so-distant future, where interstellar transportation is as common as catching an Uber, two of the galaxy's not-so-finest criminals pull off a daring bank heist. They've arranged a slick getaway, an off-the-books driver who's awaiting their instructions. However, when two friends planning to hitchhike their way across the galaxy mistake the Criminal's getaway driver for their rideshare pilot, they unknowingly teleport away, leaving the Criminals stranded and furious. Now fuelled by vengeance and incompetence, they commandeer a teleporter and give chase across the galaxy. A ridiculous intergalactic game of cat-and-mouse ensues, featuring a colony of bunny worshiping nutters, a troupe of strangely circus obsessed and a whole lot of Onverklaablargh miscommunication.
