Gerard Jenkins (Lawrence Lamont) wakes up after dreaming himself a famous chef. His older sister calls in saying she is on her way to Cedar Point and so he has to look after their father's (Roger Guenveur Smith) shop. To Gerard's dismay he has to run his father's shop for the day. Over the course of the day a lot of things happen. One of the major events that happen throughout the day is when a local gangster, Nazario (Ari Rufino), comes into the shop and tells Gerard to hold $5,000 for him. Gerard is reluctant but gives in eventually. Later a kid named Mykell (Trevione Williams) walks in to sell Gerard stolen electronics but Gerard doesn't buy any. Gerard gets distracted and Mykell sneaks behind the cashier counter and finds the $5,000 and steals it. Later Nazario comes to Gerard asking for the money. Gerard can't locate it and so is threatened by Nazario at gun point. Mykell admits he stole the money and spent it on himself and so his mom, Keisha (Kia Jelks), could get her car repaired. Nazario is out numbered and leaves. Later one of Gerard's associates tell Gerard that his girlfriends car is getting broken into. Gerard walks out infuriated only to find his family and nearly everyone who frequents the store outside screaming " Happy Birthday"!
