Description

Rocket (Tray Chaney, HBO's The Wire) is a businessman cashing in on an underground scheme to steal from criminals. Using his upscale nightclub as a way to pinpoint targets, he creates elaborate plans including phony police busts and online embezzlement. For his next heist, Rocket uses his girlfriend, Monae (Tila "Tequila" Nguyen, MTV's A Shot at Love With Tila Tequila, I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry), as bait. Although reluctant, she is forced to pose as a love interest and assists in stealing a large sum of money ... But when instructed to continue seeing the target in order to further drain his bank account, she begins to develop real feelings for the man. When Rocket becomes suspicious, he beats her in a jealous rage. Fed up with the abuse, Monae confesses to the man being conned and proposes they get his money back and skip town together. However, this time they stole from the wrong guy ... And when a dangerous drug cartel shows up at the club, all hell breaks loose!
