SYNOPSIS:

Would-be embezzlers Phil and Corinne hit the road with the $3 million they stole from a criminal organization - only to lose it all, in a night of gambling, in New Jersey. Returning to their motel, the duo find their room has been turned into a crime scene. A fact confirmed, when they are surrounded by cops, and hauled away on suspicion of murder. All the while, the unhappy couple's misadventures have been observed. The latest in a long line of scenarios orchestrated by a sinister figure called The Balance - who may be acting with official government sanction.
