Guy is a non-player character (NPC) in Free City, a massively multiplayer online (MMO) video game developed by Soonami Games. Unaware that the world he lives in is a video game, he works as a bank teller alongside his best friend and the bank’s security guard Buddy. In the real world, Millie Rusk, who plays as Molotov Girl, tries to find evidence of being the rightful owner of the source code stolen by head developer Antwan Hovachelik, while co-developer Walter “Keys” McKey works at Soonami. In the game, Molotov Girl catches Guy’s attention by singing his favorite song, “Fantasy” by Mariah Carey, and he begins to deviate from his programming. Taking a pair of sunglasses from a player robbing the bank, Guy sees Free City through the player’s heads-up display (HUD) and tries to catch up with Molotov Girl.
Keys and coworker Mouser, believing Guy to be a hacker disguised as an NPC, unsuccessfully try to ban him from the game. Guy soon meets Millie at the Stash, a well-guarded compound that holds evidence of her source code. Thinking Guy is a novice player, she advises him to level up after their failed break-in. Rapidly progressing the game by completing the missions via good acts, Guy stands out from the other players and becomes a worldwide sensation as “Blue Shirt Guy”. After stopping another player from robbing the bank, confiscating the player’s sunglasses in the process, Guy tries to give them to Buddy, who isn’t convinced.
