You get addicted to cocaine with your agent while attending celebrity parties.

You fall in love with a porn star.

She leaves you when your fame ends.

You and your agent go after Saddam Hussein.

You both sneak into Iraq and end up in a crumbling palace snorting more cocaine, making plans that never materialize.
