Charlotte Sartre, also known as Charlie, is on a quest to cover her expenses and improve her lifestyle, but it hasn't been a walk in the park. Despite her efforts to distance herself from her troubled past, it keeps resurfacing wherever she turns. Repeated rejections due to her criminal history are a harsh reminder that following the rules isn't getting her anywhere.
In a moment of desperation, Charlie reaches out to her former partner in crime,
Casey Calvert, offering a proposition. That evening, the two women convene to devise a plan to earn some illicit cash. With Charlie being on probation, engaging in such activities is highly risky, but she's willing to take the chance to alleviate her financial struggles.
The fact that both Charlie and Mia have criminal backgrounds only adds to the danger of their scheme. Their risky venture takes a turn for the worse when Charlie's dubious probation officer,
Jason Moody, unexpectedly appears. In a spontaneous move, Charlie and Mia decide to feign a romantic relationship, despite both being heterosexual.
However, Jason remains suspicious and demands convincing proof of their supposed romantic involvement. If Charlie and Mia want to divert Jason's attention from their real intentions, they must go to great lengths to persuade him that their relationship is genuine.
