Enforcer of the Month

In the competitive world of parking enforcement at a Los Angeles office, the "Enforcer of the Month" title is the holy grail. Harold Birkeland has dominated the competition by winning seven consecutive months, much to the frustration of Jimmy Wen. Tired of Harold's winning streak, Jimmy teams up with a new transfer colleague to devise a plan to bring Harold down and reclaim the top spot for himself. But as the race heats up, tensions rise, and the stakes become higher, Jimmy and his partner must decide whether winning is truly worth it.
