Clutching an intriguing looking briefcase, a man (JUAN CARLOS CANTU) arrives home late to his concerned wife (ALMA MARTINEZ). Curious to hear the tale of his tardiness she pries the story from him. A story that involves giving a ride to an oddly behaved hitchhiker (ALBERT HAMMOND JR) who was spotted walking along the edge of the tarmac on a desolate desert road, holding the aforementioned case. Reluctant to accept the ride the strange hitchhiker realizes he has very little options given his location. Once in the cabin and back on the road stifled conversation and non answers confuse our innocent driver. Hoping to get something from the stranger our man inquiries about the briefcase, where he is met with rude resistance.
