The grumpy little simian tries to get them back on his team to chase down a runaway heir to the throne of Sarelia, an alien planet ruled by a brutal patriarchy. Little does he know that the heir in question happens to be Alex’s younger sibling. And they have…wings. Turns out, a genetic quirk gives some of their race wings when they’re born. But on a planet that lives by the motto “Kings, not wings”, those born with wings are required to have them cut off. It’s supposed to make them more “masculine.” The king is doing all he can to get his youngest heir back on the butcher block and restore the line of succession. As Alex and Max race to save Alex’s sibling from Bieti, the king’s guard, and a galaxy-wide bounty hunt, they’ll dredge up Alex’s past and confront her planet’s misogynist present.

Meet Max & Alex. Reformed intergalactic assassins-for-hire. On the run. Also super gay. Their former boss - a fluffy monkey with a jetpack - is hot on their tail to take back his stolen ship. They gotta eat (tacos preferably), so they take a mission from Alex's old flame. Your standard no-kill, casualty-free kidnapping recovery from a nearby moon. Only complication? Half the moon is ruled by a fascist dictator hostile to foreigners. They're the Killer Queens, so what could possibly go wrong? Pretty much everything. After their ship is forced to crash land way off target, they have to escape from a high-security detention center run by a race of alien xenophobes. Then it s all laser blasts and one-liners until they face the choice between getting paid for their mission or helping out a struggling group of refugees fighting a rebellion. Tacos are overrated, anyway.
