Plot

Con man Ray Elliot decides to leave crime behind to start a company that sells fake alibis to clients who have been unfaithful to their significant others. It seems that the streetwise Ray has found his calling, until he unexpectedly becomes a murder suspect in a case involving one of his most influential customers. Now, as the police and an assassin called "The Mormon" track Ray, he and his attractive assistant, Lola, must clear their own names.

Ray Elliott, a crook whose former partner Jack is under a $5 million contract, believes in statistics and runs a risk-assessment and managing business that's actually a front for a company that provides alibis to adulterous people who cheat on their partners. He does not accept giving alibis for crimes and he has just hired the alluring Lola to be his assistant. When Wendell Hatch, the reckless son of his wealthy client Robert Hatch, accidentally kills his masochist date Heather in a kinky S&M game, Ray breaks his rules to protect his own name and hire some guys to clean the bedroom and vanish the body. Sooner Ray has many problems to resolve: the police are on his tail trying to find a clue about Heather's disappearance; her jealous Mexican-American boyfriend wishes revenge against the murderer; Wendell is upset because Ray told his father about the crime; Robert is angry and hires hitman "The Mormon" to kill Ray, but the killer spares him to chase Jack. When the jealous The Mormon sees his wife Adelle flirting with Ray, he decides to kill him. With no option, Ray joins his crook friends to help him to resolve the situation.
