Plot
Living in an closed down apartment, three boys named Lawrence (Sean Giambrone), Jake (Xavier Mosley) and Gillan (Tucker Albrizzi) remember the times they were bonding. Later, they get a letter from the elderly Melvin Mendaler (Larry David) saying that they are invited to a funeral of his late brother. They go to the man's home with the assistance of Florence Sara Richard (Jay Livings), Lawrence's girlfriend. The elder invites the Boys in. He gives them a box holding a chocolate cake and tells them to deliver it at the funeral in San Francisco, California.

They head off to San Francisco on a handmade sidecar (that is made from a bicycle and a red wagon attached together). Meanwhile in Los Angeles, a woman named Sylvia (Kate McKinnon), the spoiled and rich millionaire lives in a mansion and has a lover Jack (Seth MacFarlane), who has brought a box of illegal weapons for their trip to Washington, D.C. The boys arrive to their home for directions. After getting the directions to San Fransisco, the Boys leave and take the wrong box, which is the one with the weapons. Discovering the couple had their box switched when they had the one with the cake, they decide to follow them.

Later that night, they sleep at a rest stop, where they tell stories and look at the stars. The next day, they continue the trip. Jack and Sylvia drive after them and one of them start climbing out of the car and jump them, though, Gillan throws out a banana peel out and makes their car go off the road, foiling the plan they had. After several backfiring attempts following and trying to steal the box, they try a different plan: shooting them down.

On the third day of their trip, the boys encounter a truck stop. While in there, they order a pie, in which later, it causes a food fight to occur. It stops at the end, where the Boys get their sidecar stolen. Disappointed, they continue the trip on foot.

After walking for countless hours, they encounter an abandoned motorcycle. After driving non-stop for 19 hours, they run out of gas. Now, they start to hitchhike. A van stops and the driver takes them on their trip to Comic-Con in San Diego. After they arrive, they interrupt announcements in panels, attendances, etc. Some time later, the convention closes at night and the boys hide and wait until morning. The next morning, the Boys wake up, then came out from their hiding spots and get separated by many crowded people.

The unexpected Sylvia and Jack arrive at the convention to kill the Boys. When the boys encounter them both and Sylvia with a gun, they split up and run. They go after Jake and Gillan and catch them in an empty panel. When Lawrence finds Gillan and Jake, he gets joined with them. Jake opens the box, revealing the weapons. Sylvia thanks them and then starts to shoot them, but the C.I.A. arrives, as well as Melvin, who explains that he that the funeral was a set up to arrest the couple and the cake had a tracking chip in it, so they could following them since the Boys brought it and accidentally swapped boxes. In the aftermath, Sylvia and Jack are arrested.

After all the traveling and suffering they went to, they become irked and distraught all for nothing but to arrest two criminals. They leave on foot, but the C.I.A. retrieved their stolen sidecar and give it back to them. The Boys see a bus going off to Corpus Christi. They attach their sidecar to the bus with rope, then the bus takes off and pulls them home.

During the credits, post-credits scenes are shown when each actor is shown. Riding home at night, Lawrence sings "99 Bottles of Milk on the Wall" and Gillan and Jake join in; Now at dawn, Gillan wakes up Jake and Lawrence that they're home; When the boys arrive at the treehouse, Jake thinks on redecorating.

In jail, Sylvia plans escaping with shovels. Jack says, "What shovels?", which makes Sylvia think of a new plan.
