The pawn shop gets a visit from a seller who owns an original "Ace Frehley" Les Paul guitar. Rick, the owner of the pawn shop, has been a longtime fan of the band and is excited to see the iconic guitar in person.

However, Rick is not the only one interested in buying the guitar. A KISS mega-fan also comes in to try and get his hands on the guitar. The seller is aware of both bidders and is hoping to get as much money as he can for the prized possession. As the negotiations begin, it becomes clear that Rick's passion for the band may be clouding his judgment in terms of how much he is willing to pay for it.
