Oliver is sitting in his small town pub one night moping around another potential relationship he's ruined by coming on way too strong when wannabe criminal Connie enters with a gun, demanding to take the place for every last cent. Her inexperience and clear lack of confidence starts to be her undoing, until Oliver falls head over heels for her and attempts to impress her by becoming her partner in crime. Connie is put off by this, but as the local law enforcement begin closing in around her, she has no choice but to accept this creep's help.

Grant Dempsey, a once-prominent actor now confined to community theatre, enters the chaotic world of an amateur stage production. As he struts through the theatre, he encounters Bella, the overwhelmed stage manager, and Tommy, a young actor balancing theatre with school assignments. Grant's narcissistic attitude and inflated sense of self-worth create friction with the cast and crew, including a bickering couple, Laura and Kyle, and the absent young star, Steve. Grant's self-centered monologues and dismissive behaviour toward others highlight his struggle to accept his diminished career. He dismisses Bella's attempts to manage the production, derides Tommy's dedication, and belittles Steve's budding success in film.
