Three former judges known as the ""Brethren"" are detained at Trumble, a fictitious federal minimum security facility situated in northern Florida. The trio starts a scheme to trick and take advantage of affluent homosexual guys who aren't out. Despite the fact that none of them are homosexual, they write effectively as two gay young guys who have become friends and are in need of financial assistance. In the meanwhile, Aaron Lake, a hawkish congressman backed by the armaments industry, is being favoured in the United States presidential race by Teddy Maynard, the ruthless and soon-to-retire head of the CIA. However, the unaware Brethren manage to con Lake, who is a closeted man. Maynard rushes to prevent them from learning the truth because he knows Lake might be exposed if they do. Carson is assassinated by CIA operatives in the Caribbean after being fired by the Brethren. Trumble was infiltrated by the CIA with a guy, who informs the Brethren that he is aware of the con. Judges are pardoned, a settlement is negotiated, and money is exchanged-but only after Maynard sends them abroad to hide his participation.
