SUPERTROOPERS, BEERFEST) makes his directorial feature debut. Written by

Soter and Erik Stolhanske.
"Slammin" Cleon Salmon (Michael Duncan Clarke) a former World
Heavyweight Champion is now the proud owner of an upmarket seafood
restaurant, The Slammin' Salmon. He's lost none of his formidable traits
and uses fear to rule over his misfit waiters played by the Broken
Lizards, including Tara (Cobie Smulders) and Mia (April Bowlby).
On this particular night though his bullying skills peak to coerce his
staff into selling more food than they have evr achieved before. Not only
that bu the top selling server win $10,000 while the least successful
waiter gets served with a broken rib sandwich - courtesy of Salmon
himself.
Why is Slammin' Salmon being even meaner and more forcefully inspiring
than his usual self? He has
to pay off a gambling debt to the Japanese Yakuza - not a clan to cross.
Spurred on by greed and panic, a fierce competitive frenzy grips the
waiting staff as the contest escalates towards closing time and the
announcement of the winner!
