Plot Summary
J.T., the bored slacker son of a motel owner, decides to steal the convertible sitting outside one of the motel's rooms. He hopes the move will impress another hotel visitor named Tanya - an aspiring model who has been flirting with him. What he doesn't know, however, is that the car's owner - a beautiful woman going by "Ms. Smith" - is actually a professional assassin. What began as a joyride soon becomes a deadly game of cat-and-mouse between J.T. and Ms. Smith.
