This week’s scene unfolds in an unconventional location for both a heist or romance narrative: the fictitious retail store SuperSave. Kendall (Sam Richardson), who spends his days attempting to persuade indifferent customers of the merits of physical media while displaying crime films he cherishes on 4K TVs, is the protagonist. Although he adores writing screenplays, his true passion, his job and friendship with Bill (Corey Hawkins) have been his primary focus. Bill appreciates Kendall’s latest script, “One Last Job,” which bears resemblances to “Heat,” “Inside Job,” and “Ocean’s 11.” Despite the exceptional screenplays that Kendall produces, he remains reluctant to leave for Hollywood to pursue his dreams. Even though breaking into the entertainment industry is challenging, Bill understands that Kendall cannot succeed without a push. Since cuts were needed in any case, Bill dismisses Kendall, a news he does not accept lightly. At least, he avoids working on Black Friday, a small comfort considering its chaos.
