Synopsis/Details
With a devout Catholic African-American mother and a white alcoholic cop father, Jeff Walsh never felt like he belonged anywhere. Until college. That's where he met Jaime, a beautiful rich girl with a heroin problem, and Ellis, the smoothest-looking gay man that ever walked the Earth. Together, they were a mighty trinity. But Jeff’s obsession with having a picture-perfect life went too far back then. Now, three years later, with a faltering libido, Jeff travels to reconnect with Ellis and Jaime, to reinstate their triumvirate. At the airport though, Jeff spots Stacey, a dead ringer for Jaime. Or rather, Stacey allows Jeff to spot her. Why did she pick Jeff? What purpose does she have in mind? Ellis and Jeff drop Stacey off in a sketchy neighborhood, but they see her later that night at a Halloween rave, moments after Jeff’s proposal to Jaime ends horribly. Stacey aggressively seduces Jeff. Moments before they have sex for the first time, she tells him that she stole money from a drug-dealing boyfriend and asks Jeff to protect her, to save her. Ellis argues that Stacey’s crazy, which may be true. Ultimately, Jeff will be forced to enlist the help of his estranged father, now a homicide detective, to help find out the truth.
