Muggers
Matt Day and Irish actor Jason Barry play Brad and Gregor, who are about to take their final medical exams, but are flat broke, behind with their rent for their shared bed-sit flat deep in debt to a menacing crook Roy Rogers' (Chris Haywood). They cannot study for hunger and the noisy parties their drug-addled neighbour holds constantly. They have been failing their recent tests and look likely to fail, much to the delight of Brad's wealthy rival Nigel Stamford-Street (Simon Bossell). They break into their professor's office, trying to find the next vital exam to give them a chance, but instead witness a meeting between their Professor (Marshall Napier) and Dr Marcus Browning (Rod Mullinar) who runs the transplant unit, and the boys hear that he is paying large amounts for illegally obtained organs for his patients. When a suicide-jumper lands in front of the boys the next day, they take their chance and remove a kidney from the body, and sell it to Dr Browning, thus relieving their financial worries a little. After obtaining another three kidneys, from an annoying neighbour whose car alarm constantly wakes them, from their landlord and from their noisy downstairs neighbour, they manage to pay off their debts. In each case they knock the victim unconscious, remove the kidney, and sew it up neatly with dissolving stitches. They decide to celebrate by visiting call-girls from the local paper, but Brad discovers that his call-girl is actually another medical student, Sophie (Petra Yared), who he actually fancies. She explains that she does it to pay the university fees, as prostitution leaves more time for study than normal jobs. Grigor discovers that his call-girl was a Playboy model and is beyond his price range. The boys' activities attract the attention of two ambulance men who were Dr Browning's usual suppliers, as well as the police who come asking questions. Matters come to a head when the ambulance men come to beat up the boys, at the same time as a couple of Roy Rogers' boys, the angry car-alarm neighbour and the police arrive. In the end the police arrest the ambulance men for the murder of the boys' landlord, and the boys take their final exam, with Brad winning the University medal, and Grigor winning the Uni golf tournament. Of course Brad and Sophie end up together, and Grigor finds the sexually voracious Belinda (Nicola Charles).
