After embezzling a small fortune from his employer, executive Eugene Ormsby (Richard Gilliland, Joan of Arcadia and 24) is skipping the country. But before he can catch his flight, by-the-book accountant Beth Washburn (Emmy-winner Yeardley Smith, The Simpsons) arrives at his doorstep. She's found several inconsistencies in the company ledgers and fears that someone is cooking the books. Eugene realizes that he must silence his new liability, one way or another, in Frank Salisbury's suspense-filled comedy. Directed by Adam Carl.
