Plot
editPeter and David Falcone are identical twin brother waiters who want nothing more than to open their own restaurant, but are unable to get a loan. Frank Hillhurst is a corrupt businessman who has decided to give state's evidence, but his former right-hand man has threatened to kill Hillhurst and his nephews if he testifies. After the Falcone twins save Hillhurst's life, he hires them to protect his young nephews, paying them more than they have ever made in their life. Hillhurst soon departs with Federal agents, leaving Peter and David with a pair of massively mischievous identical twin ten-year-old brothers with a double mean streak.[2]
