In Topdog/Underdog, Lincoln (Tyrone Mitchell Henderson) and Booth (Matthew J. Harris) are brothers, best friends, and bitter rivals. Lincoln, a former 3-card monte hustler, works as a Lincoln impersonator in a shooting gallery; Booth is an aspiring grifter. He tempts his brother to get back in the game, but the consequences could be deadly.
