But Tripp's attempt to meet cute goes wrong when two different sets of thieves invade the bank at the same time.

Before long, both teams of crooks are trapped in the bank and find themselves constantly in each other's way, while Tripp is trying to find a way to protect Kaitlin and himself while foiling the robbers, though the fact he's delusional and has stopped taking his medication is making things rather complicated.Canadian Home Video Rating: 14A.DVD ; widescreen presentation ; Dolby digital.
