Harley's "junior" agent has gotten him a highly paid spot in a commercial for a Japanese energy drink. When the actor playing the beloved mascot for the company dies on set, it is up to Harley and Sam to find the person who is heartless enough to commit such a crime. Who will become the new mascot to uncover the death of the old mascot?

Sam, Harley and Dave Leigh finally get away for the weekend. They swear not to talk about crime, criminals or murder or use their phones for 72 hours, but trouble finds them. A mysterious body in the woods is discovered by a hiker that leads to Dave's dark past. Police Chief Pershing is forced to go back in the field – and he loves it.
