- Cade Huntley is a seasoned cinema sleuth renowned for cracking cases revolving around the film industry. He faces his toughest assignment when the mythical artifact, the horn of the Greek God Hypnos, vanishes from an old film. With his tech-savvy ally Raevynn, Cade unravels a mysterious connection to a troubled Greek myth-based film currently in production.
  
  Using his sleuthing skills, Cade infiltrates the studio to expose the cunning studio head, Lucille Lincoln, behind the production's chaos. Determined to prove his investigative prowess, Cade soon discovers Lucille's plot to exploit the powerful artifact for a Hollywood takeover. Lucille manipulates the director of the film, Wesley Rian, using the artifact to control his every move.
  
  Cade must enlist the help of his ex-girlfriend Maycee. As they reluctantly collaborate to thwart Lucille's plans, he strives not only to solve the case but also to mend his past with Maycee. Tracking Lucille to her secret studio, Cade, with Maycee's assistance, uncovers her sinister plot to hypnotize Hollywood executives for film industry dominance.
  
  Obsessed with classic films and aware of the industry's jeopardy, Cade is determined to save Hollywood by halting Lucille's hypnotic takeover. In this laugh-out-loud comedy, Cade's adventure unfolds with clever jokes and unexpected twists, paying homage to 90s classics like Ace Ventura and Naked Gun, and drawing influence from Indiana Jones. Join Cade on a roller coaster through Hollywood, where humor, intrigue, and the magic of cinema collide in an unforgettable tale.
