Plot

A bored motel clerk and his buddies go for a little joy ride in a woman's car. They don't realize until it is too late that she is a paid assassin only known as Ms. Smith (her first name was never revealed) and that her latest victim is in the trunk. Thus begins the clerk's descent into a shadowy world of lies and murder.
