About "Sucker": Lovable loser Jim Crawley is having a pretty bad day. He gets fired from his job at the Nuclear Power Plant he's worked at for 11 years, his car gets impounded, and he discovers his wife is having an affair with his ex co-worker. To make matters worse, Jim gets abducted by an evil scientist who is conducting tests of a controversial vaccine against a deadly virus that is spreading across the planet.
