The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens
《鱷魚》是2021年上映的臺灣浪漫愛情喜劇劇情片，由陳大璞執導，柯震東、李心潔、李康生主演。該片描述力爭上游的更生人遇上釘子戶青農，因官商勾結的窘境，而被迫面臨麵包與愛情的抉擇。 自稱鱷魚的小魚余大偉（柯震東飾演），17歲時因狙殺黑道角頭而入獄，且否認受地方角頭劉銘材（李康生飾演）教唆行兇。大偉出獄後，投靠任職議員辦公室主任的劉銘材，開始替議員為民服務，並期待能擁有自己的名片。陳芝平（李心潔飾演）因農地水圳堵塞而向議員辦公室陳情，劉主任便委派大偉解決。由於施工廠商已解散，政府單位無法即刻處理，大偉便親自清理水圳，結果被河馬（巫建和飾演）帶頭的一群混混給打傷雙手。 王警官（林暐恆飾演）勸芝平勿和前科犯大偉有所牽扯。余媽（王靜瑩飾演）從大偉那取得零花後，便丟下受傷的大偉而去。芝平決定照料雙手受傷的大偉，兩人漸生情愫。大偉發現河馬出入史清清議員的辦公室，劉主任為了分一杯羹，便威脅史議員的幕僚趙特助（鄭有傑飾演），此過程被大偉給錄下。大偉受劉主任指使，不得已對芝平的車開槍，以示警告。 大偉試圖說服芝平賣掉農地，但芝平堅持不放棄。河馬打算淹死芝平，大偉見狀便槍殺了河馬。芝平為了守護「更重要的東西」，決定把農地賣給建商，並譴責追究大偉罪狀的檢警先前的無作為。大偉以影片威脅劉主任歸還芝平的農地，劉主任便教唆河馬的小弟山豬（楊懿軒飾演）對大偉開槍，大偉則咬傷劉主任的鼻子。水圳的水終於通了，芝平的農地也因此變得綠蔥蔥。大偉出獄，芝平在監獄外迎接大偉。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
