    Plot [edit]

    2 patients (Martin Brest and Rudi Wurlitzer) meet in a hospital, just later learning that both have untreatable diseases with short life expectancies. They start talking about their death that is to come up very soon. When they observe a bottle of tequila, Martin finds out that Rudi has never seen the sea. Martin tells Rudi that all they talk about in Heaven is how beautiful the ocean is.

    Drunk and still in their pajamas, they steal a baby blue Mercedes-Benz W113 classic roadster and become for their last mission - to encounter the sea. The car belongs to a crime boss. They rob several small shops, just to find that in that location is a million deutsche marks in cash in the trunk of their motorcar.

    Equally they progress closer to their goal, police force along with gangsters start the hot pursuit. Eventually, the two friends find themselves trapped in the middle of a countryside road by police units on one side and gangsters on the other, pointing their guns at each other. The stand up-off finally erupts into a large shoot-out while the two brand a desperate escape through the corn field. After that, Martin buys a pink Cadillac of the same model as the one which Elvis Presley presented to his mother. His wish is to give the same present to his own mother. Equally he fulfills the wish, they get ambushed past police about Martin's mother's house. Martin pretends to have a seizure and falls on the ground. He is taken to the hospital in an ambulance with Rudi sitting past his side. En route, Martin and Rudi hijack the vehicle to continue their quest. On the way to the ocean they stop by a brothel, where Rudi wants to fulfil his wish to have sex with 2 women at the same time. By coincidence, the brothel is owned by the boss whose money they had constitute in the car they have stolen at the starting time of the journeying. They are seen by the two gangsters who were after them throughout their journey. The gangsters accept Rudi and Martin to their boss who asks them for money they should render. Martin says that the coin was spent and sent to various people which drives the criminal boss insane. Enraged, the boss points a gun at them ready to shoot, only Curtiz, the about influential criminal to whom the money was meant to exist delivered, comes in. After a brusque talk he says "Then you better run, before you lot run out of time". The capo goes on talking about that in heaven everybody would be talking near the ocean. Curtiz spares their lives and lets them go.

    The motion picture ends every bit Martin and Rudi get in at the ocean'south shore. They walk to the sandy embankment and Martin falls dead on the ground. Rudi imperturbably sits down beside his friend, facing the bounding main and watching the surf.
