    Plot summary

    [edit]

    Winslow Lowry is a no-good, indebted gambler[4] and the nephew of elderly, infirm millionaire Albert Dennison.[1] Winslow seeks to speed up his uncle's demise by hiring three of the most inept orderlies he can possibly find. The trio (played by The Fat Boys Markie, Buffy and Kool) only mean well, however. When they fail to give him his medicine, the ailing Albert becomes re-energized, as it turns out he was heavily overmedicated. In the end the trio and Albert learn about Winslow's scheme and try to stop him.
