Two hit squads compete for the same target: 'The Artists', meticulous and organised, have already done the job beautifully, and 'The Butchers', convinced they arrived first, stumble upon their rivals' handiwork — and the situation tips into absurdity.

The scouts
Crime procedural meets slapstick collision — the premise flips the genre inside out by making the *failure* of professional brutality funnier than any heist punchline could be, and that's exactly the kind of subversive rug-pull most scouts would miss.
The theatrical staging and tonal precision recall a certain strain of Coen Brothers economy, where absurdism operates within a rigorously constructed formal framework; the two-minute constraint demands the kind of disciplined comedic editing that separates crafted dark comedy from mere novelty.
The choice to play both squads with absolute professional sincerity — treating their competing incompetence as tragedy rather than farce — is the single decision that transforms a premise into something that actually *lands* in 120 seconds.
