Welcome to Eddie's world. It exists at the very juncture where Hollywood meets the mountains, where the almost-rich and not-yet-famous live on cheap thrills and heady ambition while searching for true love and redemption. Eddie lives with his smugly charming business partner Mickey, who is 'taking a break' from his wife and kids. Often they are joined in their mission for good times and perfect one-liners by two close friends; the smooth Hollywood player Artie and the brutish yet would-be-actor Phil. Into this exclusive all-male club come three equally adrift women. First there's Darlene, a cool, beautiful fast-laner herself, who two-times with both Eddie and Mickey. Then there's Donna, an under-age, runaway waif whom Artie gives to his friends as a 'care package'. Finally, there's Bonnie, the sweet but stepped-upon exotic dancer, whose unfortunate run-in with Phil sets off an unexpected chain of events.
