Ex-con Mickey (D.B. Sweeney) decides to go straight, work a legitimate blue-collar job and ask his friend Claudi (Bridget Fonda) to marry him. Unfortunately, before the wedding can happen and the couple can finally leave their one-horse town, their troubled pal Dobbs (Cary Elwes) arrives and begs his buddies to help him escape from a deadly gang that he recently crossed.
