She's sexy. She's seductive. She's Robin Shay (Rebecca De Mornay), a beautiful free spirit whose spontaneous style always gets her into trouble - and now she's escaping from a New Mexico prison! But freedom is fleeting as Robin escapes right into the lap of politician James Tiernan (Frank Langella), who reluctantly deposits her back in jail. There she "talks" carpenter Billy Moran (Vincent Spano) into a hasty marriage, effecting her immediate parole. However, Robin soon learns that freedom has its price.
