The nun told them that the orphanage was about to be sold, unless someone could pay $5,000 to the tax office within 11 days. The two brothers are determined to recall band members from all over the world, through performances to raise funds to save the orphanage where they grew up, and named their action "On A Mission From God". During the progress of the performance, they were chased by the police and the underworld. Troubles emerged one after another. Every time they were able to escape after a blues-style singing and dancing, and they raised sufficient taxes at the last minute of the deadline, and succeeded. Keep the orphanage.
