One night, he meets Marcy (Rosanna Arquette) at a local bar and decides to follow her home downtown. However, their encounter quickly turns chaotic when she asks him for money to pay the babysitter but he doesn't have enough. In a rush to find cash, Paul leaves his wallet behind. A series of comedic misfortunes ensue as Paul tries to retrieve his wallet while also trying to impress Marcy and her friends with his artistic skills. Throughout the night, Paul becomes involved in various bizarre situations, including a mobster's overdose, a punk rock vigilante gang, and an encounter with a thief who mistakes him for a police officer.
