The Mugging of Christian Brown

The plot

While cutting through a dark alley on his way home, Christian Brown is violently mugged. Fed up with feeling like a human doormat, he becomes obsessed with retrieving his phone and wallet. His conspiracy theorist drug dealer, The Flower Guy, and a shady hacker assist Christian in tracking down the buff assaulter, an old high school foe named Pat. After an unsuccessful attempt at recovering his stolen items, a mind altering experience gives Christian the confidence he needs to complete his mission.
