For several ordinary people, a washed-up diner in the middle of the New Mexico desert becomes a traumatic venue for self-revelation.

Stephen is a contentious youth who chafes at the inhibitions of early adulthood and expresses his angst with a slightly off-key James Dean persona. Angel is a shy, lonesome young woman who balances her portly size with a steady stream of well-intentioned conversation. Richard, with a patronizing smile, exercises a silent patriarchal control over his reticent wife, Clarisse. Muted by vanity and insecurity, their innermost flaws barely show through layers of social facade.

Enter Teddy—a drug-smuggling drifter with an utter lack of inhibition, a severe distaste for hypocrisy, and a keen talent for dismantling personal identities. Held hostage by this clever sociopath and his buxom companion Cheryl, the occupants of Foster's Diner face an eye-opening ordeal that will change them all forever. Whether they like it or not.
