Episode 1
Best friends Leon, an out-of-work actor with principles, and Ahmed, an unscrupulous stoner new to the film industry, audition for the same role in a new Hollywood movie.
The boys spend the day shopping for comics, disputing cultural appropriation, and clashing with neighborhood children.
After a run-in with two privileged white guys at a local movie theatre, Ahmed, Leon and their pal Mark imagine what their own lives would look like with white privilege.
Reality and fantasy merge as Leon and Ahmed celebrate father’s day by smoking joints and reminiscing about the lessons learned (or lack thereof) from their immigrant Dads.
Ahmed and Leon encounter cultural issues on a double date with two white girls, both named Becky. Ahmed fakes his ethnicity to impress his date while Leon is fearful of being fetishized.
When Leon and Ahmed throw a Comic Con party at their apartment, Leon’s VIP pass and Ahmed’s weed are stolen. Now they have to team up and track down the costumed culprit before they miss the convention, and ideally before Ahmed completely loses it.
The boys enter the world of fantasy when Leon invites Ahmed to play D&D with his friends. But when Ahmed wins over the group and takes over the game, Leon gets a harsh dose of reality.
When Ahmed beats out Leon for a coveted role in the new McG movie, the long-simmering tension between them boils over into an epic battle. Both are confronted with their shortcomings, and the boys must choose friendship or a shot at the big time.
