Plot

In the heartland of America, three unique sales representatives from varying life stages convene at a bustling trade show, their mission clear: sell industrial lubricants. Larry Mann and Phil Cooper, two seasoned salesmen and lifelong friends, find themselves partnered with Bob Walker, a green recruit from the company's research and development team. Their collective ambition is focused on one elusive target, a powerful business executive cryptically referred to as 'the Big Kahuna.' As the trio occupies their temporary headquarters in the hotel's hospitality suite, orchestrating a delegate party on the convention's last evening, the disparity in life experience between the youthful Bob and his more world-weary colleagues becomes glaringly evident. Their ultimate goal is to reel in the 'Big Fish' of the industry, but the game changes when it's revealed that the unseasoned Bob holds the exclusive line of communication to the coveted executive. With the pivotal meeting looming, Bob's fervent religious beliefs ascend to the forefront, clashing dramatically with the hardened cynicism of Larry and Phil. This unexpected discord threatens to widen the chasm between them, turning their once united front into a battleground of conflicting ideologies. The Big Kahuna is more than a tale of a high-stakes corporate chase; it's a compelling exploration of the interplay between innocence, experience, faith, and business in the modern world.
