action
James King lives on the road to success as a highly paid fund manager and is about to marry the attractive daughter of his extremely wealthy boss. But due to a completely opaque intrigue for him, although completely innocent, he is sentenced to ten years imprisonment in a maximum security prison for embezzlement and investment fraud, which he must begin in thirty days.
For fear of the conditions in the prison, he hires the black car wash operator Darnell Lewis, who is supposed to harden him for life in prison. He hired him because he later found out to be a false assumption that Darnell, as a typical African American, has already had experience in prison. Darnell, who has no criminal record, makes him believe that he absolutely needs equity to finance a house in order to finally be able to move out of the ghetto with his family.
The training program for James includes self-defense, oral sex and other vital skills for everyday prison life. In the end, however, together they manage to uncover the intrigue and convict the actual fraudsters. Since James had an unregistered weapon with him, he still has to go to jail for six months. After the sentence has expired, Darnell picks him up, who has meanwhile become a friend for him and in whose car wash he has invested.
