Nachdem ein Brand sein Haus zerstört, dessen Feuerversicherung er nicht mehr zahlen konnte, bleibt ihm nichts anderes übrig als im Garten zu zelten. Aus der finanziellen Not und von seiner Bekannten Tanya angestiftet, fasst der überdurchschnittlich gut bestückte Ray den Entschluss, aus seinem besten Stück beruflich Kapital zu schlagen. Doch leider muss er feststellen, dass das ganz schön harte Arbeit ist …
