There’s one heck of a movie in there somewhere–Passed over for a promotion, he finds a dead body killed by an electric razor. He is arrested and put in prison, but a good attorney gets him out on bail. It turned out the body was a clone of his boss, he gets, and starts a new career defending clones in court.
