A pair of long separated boyhood friends meet when one assassinates a racketeer the other has been hired to shoot. Both conclude that it's time to retire from the underworld fray and take a slow boat to the island where they were raised, reminiscing about the good times, the bad times and their favourite noodles; they decide to become 'angels' by founding a new orphanage. Meanwhile, their more recent past is catching up with them.
