After a weekend long crack binder, Dave Bell, a washed-up track star turned high school volleyball coach, awakes to find the front bumper of his Volkswagen smashed in with scratches of another vehicle’s paint all along the metal. Rather than stopping to reflect on the situation, he hightails it to his dealer’s house, where he scores enough crack to kill a small elephant.

A couple drinks and a few hits later, Dave is behind the wheel of a school bus packed with a bunch of hormone-raging teenagers. He doesn’t get very far before the state troopers pull him over and arrest him for driving under the influence.

But the courts go easy on him. Thanks to some fancy footwork by his lawyer wife, Cheryl, Dave gets off with 90 days mandatory treatment at a secluded drug rehab high in the Rocky Mountains. There, he meets a young alcoholic named Monty, grieving over the death of his girlfriend who was killed in a hit-and-run only a week earlier.

As Monty shares intimate details of the accident that killed his girlfriend, memories begin to unfold of a crash Dave caused while blinded by crack and alcohol. As the details gel with increasing probability, Dave can’t help but wonder if he was the driver responsible.
