Three tales of urban indulgence are interwoven over the course of this film. Ronna (Sarah Polley) is an eighteen-year-old checkout girl who, together with her reluctant friend Claire (Katie Holmes), organises her first drug deal in order to make the money to pay her rent. Meanwhile, Simon (Desmond Askew) and Marcus (Taye Diggs), after a night out on the tiles, find themselves driving around Las Vegas in a stolen car, attempting to avoid a beating from some angry locals. During which time, respected TV cops Adam (Scott Wolf) and Zack (Jay Mohr), blackmailed by a creepy detective, have become involved in a real-life undercover drugs sting - which brings us back to Ronna and Claire.
