Summary:
Mormons Greg and Nelson are two complete opposites on a mission to complete their Home Teaching on the last day of the month--even if it kills them! Nelson (Jeff Birk) is so determined to meet the requirements of 100% home teaching that he drags Greg (Michael Birkeland), kicking and screaming on an all-day adventure that sends them careening off cliffs, crashing through ceilings, and running for their lives from deer poachers.

Annotations:
