A car mechanic approaches his friend, a lawyer in a wheelchair with the gift of persuading any heterosexual that he is a homosexual, asking for protection from an evil bureaucrat with a soft bottom.
SYNOPSIS:
The main character, Harry "Multitool," a car mechanic, lives with his wife Bella and his son Nico from another woman. Nico suffers from Tourette syndrome and constantly swears. Harry maintains friendly relations with the local policeman Zedekiah and his brother Bob. As a favor, Harry repairs Zedekiah's RV, which has essentially transformed into a BDSM castle.
A corrupt official attempts to seize almost all of Harry's property—his house, garage, and land—setting the redemption price at $200 under the guise of legality. Harry seeks help from an old army friend, Corporal Bayonet, now a respected attorney confined to a wheelchair after an injury. However, Bayonet has a unique gift: he can convince anyone they’re gay. Unfortunately, during the court proceedings, Bayonet spends too much time talking to the judge and accidentally convinces him of his own homosexuality. The judge begins flirting with the official and rules in his favor. Corporal Bayonet loses the case.
Bayonet, over a glass of wine, suggests alternative ways to solve the problem at Harry's house. Harry and Nico begin to behave strangely toward Corporal Bayonet.
“Fk! Fk without lube, rough, painful, constantly!” yells Nico. “I want love under the moonlight, with a team of firefighters,” Harry whispers, stroking Bayonet’s hand. “I get it now—I want to be loved by twelve women at once,” Bella declares, downing her glass of wine and smashing it on the floor.
The noisy gathering is interrupted by the corrupt official, who walks in with legs spread wide. “I won the court case, but at what cost? At what cost?” the official squeaks quietly. “Fix bayonets and grab this man with a wrecked rear!” Bayonet shouts. Nico and Harry tackle the official, with Bella sitting on him triumphantly.
“I think we should call my friend Zedekiah and have him bring Bob, along with their BDSM RV,” Harry declares. The official is dragged into the BDSM RV. Inside, Zedekiah and Bob welcome him warmly. Harry and Nico follow them into the "temple of BDSM," leaving Bella outside. She listens to the torrent of profanity and cries, watching the unnatural rocking of the RV.
The next morning, the official, now in a wheelchair, hands Harry a suitcase full of money and promises not to touch his house or land. He thanks Harry for the incredible experience and newfound sensations. The official also announces his plans to abandon his career and join Zedekiah and Bob on a journey to the grand “Love Without Borders” festival.
Corporal Bayonet concludes with a smirk: “You know, sometimes the only way to defeat bureaucracy—and even corruption—is through the back door.”
