Synopsis
Rupert Pupkin is obsessed with becoming a comedy great. When he confronts his idol, talk show host Jerry Langford, with a plea to perform on the Jerry's show, he is only given the run-around. He does not give up and persists in stalking Jerry until he gets what he wants. Eventually he teams up with his psychotic Langford-obsessed friend Masha to kidnap the talk show host in hopes of finally getting to perform his stand-up routine and host the Jerry Langford Show.
