Description:
Las Vegas is full of people whose morals hover over the grey line between right and wrong. For “Slick” and his crew, pulling cons is their bread and butter; they have adapted quite well to the unforgiving, transient nature of Las Vegas. No mark comes to town without Slick knowing about it. This time Slick and the crew have stumbled upon the “scam of a lifetime.” In comes Jebidiah a Texas cattle baron, his entourage, and a mysterious briefcase.
A beautiful stewardess and a talkative bell hop call to inform Slick of the newly arrived whale. With dollar signs in their eyes, Slick and the crew devise an intricate plan that will allow them all to retire in luxury; but are they in for more than they bargained for? Needing a distraction for Jebediah, Slick contacts his ex, a leggy brunette named Olivia, to help with the con.
A junkie who happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time overhears the crews plan and leaks the information to Tyrell, a North-Town Gangster and a couple hard-core Irish Sisters known as “The Murphy’s”. In a tangled mess of deceit, violence and drugs we find each character trying to steal what already has been stolen. Once Jebediah realizes his world has been taken from him, he sets out on a bloody rampage to seek retribution from those who have wronged him.
