Matthew purchases three tickets for him and his friends to see their
favourite rap band, Public Enemy, in concert. As he prances through the streets
in delight, clutching the envelope in his hand, one of the tickets falls out and
lands on the road. A middle-aged businessman passing by spots it and
nonchalantly picks it up, putting it in his jacket pocket before continuing on
his journey. Back at the flat, Peter and Paul anxiously assemble as Matthew
hands out each ticket, first to Peter and then Paul, but upon reaching to
retrieve the third ticket for himself, he discovers that the envelope is empty.
Matthew is distraught. So, despite their desire to go to the concert, Peter and
Paul agree not to go without their friend. Thus begins their search to find a
replacement.
Matthew visits the leader of another Posse and asks him to use his contacts
to get a ticket, but when he asks for the remaining two tickets in return,
Matthew is unwilling to negotiate. Meanwhile, Peter asks his girlfriend for
help, but even after he subjects himself to her insensitive ridicule, he too
leaves empty handed. Paul has enlisted the help of his dog, who he hopes will
sniff out the home with a concert ticket, so as he takes to the streets,
disguised as a sales man, he tries his luck conning people into giving him their
ticket. He resurfaces, roughed up, bruised and ticketless.
Exhausted by their futile attempts, the trio sit on the steps outside the
concert hall. The crowds are beginning to form and Peter and Paul are wavering
under the pressure of being inches from seeing Public Enemy. Matthew insists
that they go to the concert, but the two cannot bring themselves to abandon him.
Resigned to their predicament, they make their way home. Peter and Paul
congregate while Matthew paces up and down in a fit of temper. When he
accidentally bumps into a man walking by and knocks him down, the friends
apologetically rush to help the man to his feet and Matthew discovers a single
Public Enemy concert ticket that has fallen out of the strangers'
pocket.
