The story

Max Bialystock is an aging Broadway producer whose career has veered from great success to the depths of near failure.

Leopold "Leo" Bloom, a neurotic young accountant prone to hysterics, arrives at Max's office to audit his accounts and discovers a $2,000 discrepancy in the accounts of Max's last play.

He convinces Leo to join him, treating him to lunch and a day out and saying that his drab life in accounting is little different from prison anyway.
