After a drunken night out, Tim accidentally shoots Nick's beloved horse, Corky, with a bow and arrow, apparently killing him, and buries the horse in his abandoned swimming pool. In a bar, he meets J-Man, a bizarre drifter, who lends a sympathetic ear and offers advice. Meanwhile, Nick's wife Natalie decides to run for state senate but is continually plagued by questions about her husband's product.Īfter Tim's wife Debbie and children temporarily leave and he is fired from 3M, Tim's envy reaches new levels. Nick is blissfully unaware of Tim's envy, and his generosity only serves to make Tim more envious of him. As Nick's wealth continues to grow, so does Tim's envy, as he had initially scoffed at the idea and squandered an opportunity to invest and become mega-rich himself. Nick is constantly coming up with crazy ideas to get rich quick, and when he invents Vapoorize, a spray that instantly disintegrates dog feces, he actually succeeds. Tim Dingman and Nick Vanderpark are best friends, neighbors and co-workers at 3M. The film was a critical and commercial failure. Envy is a 2004 American black comedy buddy film directed by Barry Levinson and starring Ben Stiller and Jack Black.
