Incastrati in ruoli burocratici e ripetitivi, due aspiranti agenti segreti si annoiano a morte. Finalmente, per caso, arriva l'occasione di diventare vere spie: dopo un bislacco addestramento, i nostri eroi partono per la prima (e ultima) missione. Tra risate e pasticci a non finire, befferanno l'esercito russo, il Kgb e perfino la Cia, fuggendo poi con una bella ragazza.
