Plot – On the eve of his release from a Los Angeles prison, whimsical car thief Jimmy Dworsky escapes with a trick to attend the baseball championship game. In a phone booth he finds the agenda and some credit cards of Spencer Barnes, a neurotic advertising executive whose diary records his meticulously organized life. Barnes tries desperately, but in vain, to contact Diane - manager of a major advertising company - and Sakamoto - a prestigious Japanese businessman - with the hasty help of his former classmate Debbie. Meanwhile Dworsky, mistaken for Barnes, gets successfully involved in the executive's business. After many misunderstandings, Barnes and Dworsky meet and become friends, but not before they are both hired with lavish salaries by Mr. Sakamoto. Dworsky returns to prison with a ruse and is immediately afterwards released.
