Plot Summary


In the city of brotherly love, Philadelphia, in 1999, a sense of unease settles over the streets as Santos hastily exits a bar, his nervous energy palpable. The bartender, however, has other plans for him, and with swift brutality, Santos’ life is cut short in an alleyway.

Meanwhile, Jamie and Sukie’s relationship teeters on the brink of collapse due to Jamie’s infidelity. A bitter Sukie ultimately sends Jamie packing from their apartment, leaving Jamie to ponder her next move. It’s then that she learns about Marian’s upcoming trip to Tallahassee, Florida, and decides to tag along for the ride. The unlikely duo finds themselves at a drive-away car service, where they inadvertently snag a vehicle already booked by someone else - a trio of nefarious characters known as Arliss, Flint, and Chief.

As Jamie and Marian set off on their impromptu journey, the tension builds when they discover the mysterious cargo in the trunk. The pair’s initial reluctance to explore gives way to a series of detours and flirtatious encounters at lesbian bars along the route. Marian’s literary pursuits take a backseat as she slowly opens up to Jamie’s charms. The Florida sun beats down on them, but their adventure takes an unexpected turn when they find themselves with a flat tire and a gruesome discovery in the trunk - Santos’ decapitated head and a container of smoky white substance.

As Arliss and Flint hotly pursue Jamie and Marian, the pair becomes embroiled in a wild goose chase courtesy of a soccer team that’s invited them to a party. When they finally check into a Tallahassee hotel using Jamie’s credit card, the mob is alerted to their location. In a moment of vulnerability, Jamie convinces Marian to indulge in a night of passion, seeking to release pent-up emotions. The next morning, Arliss, Flint, and Chief arrive in town, while Jamie becomes fixated on unlocking the secrets within Santos’ briefcase - a collection of dildos crafted from plaster casts of men’s erect penises. Marian is left stunned by Jamie’s newfound fixation, but Jamie insists it’s all about recapturing the liberating sexual release she experienced the previous night.

As the euphoria of their climax begins to dissipate, Jamie and her companions are suddenly confronted by Arliss (character) and Flint, who burst into their hotel room with haste. The intruders swiftly retrieve Santos’ decapitated head and the mysterious briefcase, before abducting the women at gunpoint. This dramatic turn of events unfolds in a manner that is both swift and calculated.

The trio finds themselves transported to an unassuming dog racing track, where they are met by none other than the Chief. As it becomes clear that this individual is not merely a casual observer, Jamie and her companions are treated to a revealing explanation: the sex toys scattered throughout the establishment are modeled after the genitalia of prominent public figures, including one that bears an uncanny resemblance to Senator Channel’s (character) own anatomy.

Channel, whose reputation hangs precariously in the balance, is consumed by anxiety. You see, Jamie had earlier indulged in the very same dildo, leaving it behind in their hotel room as a tangible reminder of her morning’s activities. The implications are dire; should this information become public knowledge, Channel’s esteemed career would undoubtedly be left in tatters.

As tensions simmer and gangsters squabble over the finer points of their nefarious agenda, Flint’s impulsive nature ultimately leads to the demise of Arliss and the Chief. Abandoning their cohorts, Flint flees the scene with haste, leaving Jamie and Marian to ponder their next move.

Meanwhile, Sukie (character) had been en route to Tallahassee in her capacity as a police officer, thanks to Jamie’s timely tip-off. As fate would have it, she intercepts Jamie and Marian at a lesbian bar, where they are in the midst of negotiating with Channel himself. The stakes are high; in exchange for a staggering sum of one million dollars, Jamie and Marian agree to part ways with the incriminating dildo.

However, their triumph is short-lived, as Sukie’s timely intervention sees her apprehending Channel. In a shocking turn of events, newspapers begin publishing sensationalized articles detailing Channel’s sordid criminal connections and his penchant for collecting sex toys fashioned from the genitalia of prominent public figures.

The next day, Jamie and Marian meet with Marian’s aunt at their hotel, where they casually mention plans to travel to Massachusetts – a jurisdiction where same-sex marriage is legal. As they depart in a vehicle driven by Marian’s aunt, a bellhop hastily hands them a forgotten bag containing two plaster casts of the dildo modeled after Channel’s (character) very own anatomy.
