After stealing from a drug dealer, a heroin addict (writer-director Kevin DiNovis) seeks shelter with a solitary busboy (Peter Pryor), a man so accustomed to being alone that he actually fears female company. But it doesn't take long for the fledgling friends to form a disturbing partnership. Instead of accepting rent, the busboy is content to take an unusual form of payment, steadily molding his new roommate into the ideal woman.
