Two childhood friends from New York are sent to Australia to deliver mob money. After one of them accidentally hits a kangaroo with their car, they put a jacket on the seemingly dead animal. The kangaroo springs back to life and hops away with the cash-filled jacket, leading the pair on a chaotic chase across the Outback to retrieve it.
