As he tries to access an ATM to retrieve his last twenty bucks, Jason“JINX” Taylor
runs into a snag – the transaction fee will overdraw him, and he cannot get his money out of the bank. Jinx fumes about this and other hidden charges which complicate his life…as we realize that he is locked in a bank vault…with the beautiful but tied-up Jessica, her apparently a hostage. But, as Jinx rails against corporations and how they
stack the deck, we realize that the situation is very different from what it appears: in
fact, it is Jessica, not Jinx, who is robbing the bank. She is aligned with SIMON, who
leads an armed team inside the branch. However, Jinx’s entry into the scenario upsets the heist, leading he and Jessica to be inadvertently locked inside the vault. In addition,
Jinx has called the cops, who, led by Officer De Gepse, have surrounded the bank.
Jinx makes contact with Simon by cell phone, and the situation becomes clearer, as he
realizes Jessica has access to a special inside-the-vault computer and its codes…she and
only she can open the vault door. Simon becomes increasingly upset when he is unable
to strong-talk Jinx into getting the vault open (so the robbers can clear out the safe
deposit boxes). And De Gepse is equally frustrated by the standoff, particularly when it
is Jinx, not he, who seems to gain control over the situation.
As things progress, Jinx realizes that he and Jessica actually think very much alike –
they both feel used – and this new kinship leads them to plot an escape. Another call
comes in from Nick, the true mastermind of the robbery, and Jinx and Jessica realize
that Nick needs them to issue a PIN number for him to access funds which have been
skimmed (from fees, of course) over the course of years. With Simon increasingly
unstable, Jinx is able to manipulate both him and De Gepse while also making a deal
with Nick to provide a PIN number (controlled by Jinx/Jessica) to go with Nick’s account information. Jinx manages to talk both cops and robbers into letting Jessica and him out, as freed hostages, and in the ensuing chaos, they slip away, to meet Nick and escape with their cut of the cash… --© Official Site
