An AWARD-WINNING COMEDY
By Paul Slade Smith
An Amateur Production By Arrangement with ORiGiN™ Theatrical, on behalf of Playscripts, Inc.

Two cops. Three crooks. Eight doors. Go. In a cheap motel room, an embezzling mayor is supposed to meet with his female accountant, while in the room next-door, two undercover cops wait to catch the meeting on videotape. But there's some confusion as to who's in which room, who's being videotaped, who's taken the money, who's hired a hit man, and why the accountant keeps taking off her clothes.
