His relationship with Alice (Beau Garrett) having recently ended, lovelorn college student Billy (Nick Stahl) travels back to Northern Virginia and starts hanging around with his childhood pal Stanley (Jonathan Jackson). It's been years since Billy and Stanley have seen each other, and now the more time they spend together, the more obvious it becomes that Stanley isn't the same guy he used to be. Concerned, Billy seeks the advice of Stanley's roommate, Christian (Christopher M. Clark), who has also noticed some disturbing patterns in Stanley's behavior. As their investigation gets under way, Billy and Christian uncover some bloody evidence that seems to link their troubled friend with a violent crime, and sets all three men on a tragic collision course with destiny.
