Her big heart gets her into trouble because she's violated her apartment's lease agreement. When her landlady gives her an eviction notice, Zapporah can't believe her eyes since she and the landlady were on good terms, and she's always been on time with her rent. That very night, Rookie displays an unbelievable skill, she's able to set up a chessboard and move chess pieces. Zapporah believes Rookie's skill could help her score the fast money she needs to get new digs. Zapporah re-connects with Kenny, her ex-boyfriend. Although she's forgiven him for catching him getting a lap dance from his boss, Gloria Stravos, Zapporah will not go beyond anything other than getting his help with securing a talent agent for Rookie. Rookie is hired for a commercial, and just as things are about to look up for Zapporah, her intelligent cat is stolen. Sloth and Kenny attempt to outdo each other as they come to her aid to find Rookie. When she gets a strange voice message from Gloria, Zapporah goes to find out what's going on. She finds Gloria murdered. Previous opposition with Gloria implicates her as a suspect. Zapporah's intuition about that strange phone call tells her that whoever stole her cat also murdered Gloria. Zapporah and Sloth are up against a cunning murderer, white supremacists, and an inept cop to find her intelligent cat. Will gadgets, and a strong intuition be enough to help Zapporah find her cat and the murderer?
