Mladi James, ki je izgubil starše in so ga vrgli iz kolidža, se pojavi na pragu svoje babice, a starka umre pred njegovimi očmi. Njegovo življenje gre le še navzdol, ko se zaplete s krajevnim sleparjem, ki preži na mestne upokojence.

Mladi James, ki je izgubil starše in so ga za nameček vrgli še iz kolidža, se pojavi na pragu svoje babice, vendar starka umre pred njegovimi očmi. Njegovo življenje gre poslej le še navzdol, ko se zaplete s krajevnim sleparjem Webbom, ki preži na mestne upokojence. James vzame pod svoje okrilje dobronamerni, pošteni sosed, vendar tudi vojska angelov varuhov ne bi mogla odvrniti Webba, ki ima nekatere lastne težave. Kriminalni boter Duane mu je namreč postavil ultimat, ki Webba prisili v nasilno poravnavo računov. [Cinemax]

Kicked out of college, James visits Grams, his only remaining family, who dies shortly after his arrival. He finds consolation in the company of Grams’ neighbor, Dot, a dance teacher, as he figures out his next move. While settling Grams’ affairs, James learns she’s been the victim of the “grandparent scam” in which someone posing as James has been slowly bilking her out of thousands. But before James can go looking for the culprit, he shows up at the front door, desperate for money. The culprit, Webb, has his own problems in the form of Duane, who has ordered Webb to pay an old debt or else. And if Webb can’t get it from Grams, James will have to do – no matter who stands in his way.

*************

Writer-director Alex R. Johnson's feature debut uses Southern Gothic simmer to heat up what is otherwise a typical gun-and-bag-of-money crime tale, though Hébert's terrifyingly electric performance keeps the heat turned up enough to make the bloody climax feel like relief.
