The vital key to prevent Armageddon is in the possession of Jim Pickles, the Pentagon's bumbling concierge, who’s more concerned with the fact that he’s getting dumped and kicked out of his house for some highly questionable Facebook activity. With just 5 minutes on the clock, our hero must race against time, cut through chaos, and somehow reason with the hapless Pickles before it's too late.
