Incarcerated for a crime he didn't commit, framed by his brother, in love with the one woman, he can't have. We open with a commuter bus on a lonely stretch of highway. Derek Russell, a passenger in a sports convertible, peers through the bus's window, and is instantly drawn to the beautiful, Toni Culmer, who glances at him for a moment. Later that day Derek and Toni, meet at a Bus Stop, but when he asks for her telephone number, she refuses, telling Derek, he must find a way to get it, if he has a genuine interest in her. Later that night Derek, in a car with friends, Robert, Wesley and Snake, stop at a convenient store. To everyone's dismay, Robert pulls out an gun and playfully attempts to rob, Nathan Culmer out of $5. The playfulness ends abruptly when the gun accidentally goes off, hitting Nathan in the head. Derek aids the wounded Nathan as his friends flee the scene. Nathan ultimately passes out from a loss of blood and Derek too, flees the scene.
