Although the Theatrical Cut runs quite long (approx. 2 hrs.), the Extended Version includes 9 min. of new footage. If you like the Theatrical Cut you shouldn't hesitate to watch the Extended Version as well. The new footage intensifies some shallow characters (Landlord & Landlady) and the footage makes the film more understandable. The Extended Version seems to be the favored version that had to be cut down to 2 hrs. without cutting out a complete plot line.
Thongs and Octopus accept a job from their landlord: kidnap a baby. Soon, the baby awakens strong paternal feelings in the two crooks, leading to complications when it comes to handing him over to his possibly crazy gang boss grandfather.
