A coffee vendor refuses to compromise quality, loses his spot to a cheaper rival using rotten ingredients, then confronts the fallout when mass illness strikes.
Aaron runs a modest coffee operation built on honest ingredients, but rising costs push his latte price to six dollars. Competitor Chad undercuts him with a three-dollar drink made from spoiled supplies, stealing Aaron's workers and forcing him out of his regular location into a flea market. When Chad's shortcuts trigger a wave of food poisoning, the park authorities turn to Aaron for help. Standing by his standards again puts him in the crosshairs, setting up a clash between principle and survival.
