Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Alice and Darlene, best friends, decide to take a trip to Thailand to celebrate high-school graduation. While there, they are befriended by charming Australian rogue Nick Parks. Nick convinces them to take a weekend side trip to Hong Kong, but at the airport, they are busted for smuggling drugs. They are convicted in a show trial and sentenced to 33 years; in desperation, they contact Yankee Hank, an American lawyer based in Thailand who has been reported to be helpful if you've got the cash.

Did You Know?
| Trivia | In an interview Claire Danes complained about the conditions in the Philippines, heat, humidity, filthy, cockroaches, poor and disabled people. She subsequently was declared "persona non grata" by the Philippine government and barred from entering the country. See more » |
| Goofs | After Alice and Darlene take the fruit forbidden to new prisoners, Alice is punished by having the palms of her hands beaten severely with a heavy wooden club. Even if the beating didn't break any bones, it would have caused severe swelling, pain, and difficulty gripping things, yet in the very next scene, her hands seem fine. See more » |

| Quotes |
Doug Davis:
You're a scammer and you're a manipulator. You think that I don't know you? You are dead wrong. The only thing that has ever come out of your mouth is lies. Six years old... the paint... the paint all over your hands. All over our couch? 'I didn't do it.' 16 years old with the beer cans in my car. 'I didn't do it.' Let me hear you say it again, Alice. Come on! Let me hear you say it in here, huh? Come on, one for old times' sake! Alice Marano: [screaming] I didn't do it! See more » |
