Charlie has been recently released on parole for a mistake he made years prior. In an attempt to make some extra cash to pay off his prison protection debts, he is caught trying to rob Roberta Hastings, the wealthy homeowner who intends to help Charlie pay off his debts. Caught on camera in the act of stealing and not wanting to violate his parole and return to prison, Charlie agrees to a full time job working for the woman to help fix up her aging home.
However when the prison gang comes to collect, Charlie realizes he will never be able to pay them off. That is until Roberta asks for his help on a different job. One that she promises will keep him safe and pay off his debt in full. So long as he is able to stick it out until the end.
Other Duties as Needed is a story about finding yourself with the help of others, sometimes with an extra dose of convincing.
