Showcased herein are characters from the schizophrenic melting pot of the modern South--a stage where the urban and the rural, the cultured and the unrefined, privileged and poor, black and white all perform side by side. An airbrush artist learns to counterfeit twenty-dollar bills in a scheme to prove to his estranged wife that he is a genuine artiste; a teenage boy becomes a peeping tom in order to discover the true reasons for his parents' divorce; a father gives his son a classical lesson in logic and revenge by taking him to murder their next-door neighbor; the manager of an apartment complex is caught in a bizarre love triangle with a gorgeous new female tenant and her bedridden seven-hundred-pound husband. This menagerie of misfits serves as a reminder of how freakish we can become when our lives lack truth or love, or when we suddenly discover it.
