 Sam Logan is a young executive who s just lost his job, and is finding it impossible to make the connections necessary to be considered for a good opportunity. He runs into his acquaintance Cal, who tells him that all the best business connections are made at a small, little-known downtown club. Intrigued, Sam forgoes his scheduled job interview in order to accompany Cal to the club, which he finds to be a bit odd in its ritualized social activities; but he gamely plays along, hoping to get his big break.
