A troubled teenager leaves home in West Texas and takes to the road. He soon finds that he gets off on the thrill of confrontation and killing. Dan, Wally and Syd are on a trip to deliver equipment to an observatory in Arizona. The paths of these two worlds cross, leading to a game of cat and mouse where the role of mouse changes hands. Along the way, Wally finds himself in jail, Dan finds love (maybe), and Syd does her best to herd them away from trouble. Find out who walks away when Wally becomes the target of a serial killer.
