Beyond things being hot, smelly, and crowded, Eddie Gillespie can't stand always losing, Mickey O'Sullivan is sick of being financially strapped, and Joey Sallazzo just lost his wife, his girlfriend and his job. This team of pathetic delinquents decide that with nothing left to lose, they are going to try for a big score just one more time. However, this job is going to be different than the last. This time there will be absolutely no outsiders in for the take. With some IT help and website ingenuity of hired hand, the beautiful and mysterious Mallory Fenton, the team sets up a website for a fugazi marathon. The First Annual Keith Condon Rockaway Run is an event meant to aid in the search for their friend who disappeared only a couple of months earlier. Their plan takes off a little too well and the team finds themselves forced into making the marathon a reality or losing out on over 3 million dollars.
