Craig Foster, a divorced father and bank security guard, is hoping to become an entrepreneur. His brother, Isiah, repeatedly takes part in illegal activities. While Craig tries a second time to get a $20,000 loan at his own bank, Isiah robs the bank, and Craig is fired from his job. Craig rents out his apartment for extra money and begins living in his car. He gets a call from another loan officer wanting to discuss a potential loan and they agree to meet at the site of his proposed saw palmetto farm. He returns to his apartment to get dressed and finds that it is being used to film pornography. Craig's car is destroyed in a fire, and he calls an Uber to take him to his meeting. His driver, Jillian G, lives in a towed billboard behind her car. On the way to the meeting, Jillian stops during the trip and kills a Burmese python. She brings it back into the car, and explains that she has a side job of killing invasive snakes. During the drive, the snake, who was believed to be dead, begins attacking Craig. He puts its head outside of the window and rolls it up to kill it, but becomes covered in blood. He wears Jillian's graduation robe to cover the blood but does not receive the loan from the loan officer. While Jillian is in collecting a $100 bounty (which she offers to Craig) for the python, Brock, a professional python hunter and influencer (with his son Corby) sees the dead python and assumes Craig hunts them and starts trash talking him about the upcoming python hunting challenge with a $20,000 prize. The episode ends with Craig smiling as he contemplates that prize getting him the $20,000 he wants to start his business.

Using a nail gun, he shoots a python through the head, but accidentally nails it to his hand. He sees Jillian, who offers to take him to get medical help. After getting the snake removed, they find that Silas has died. Following his wishes to become unidentifiable so he can be buried instead of cremated, they steal his wallet.
