Summary:

John is living in Los Angeles and is starting to buckle under the pressure of his own failures. With no jobs coming in and a massive credit card debt to pay off, John works part-time as a courier. Out of the blue, a strange man makes John an offer that involves delivering a suitcase to a man in Baker, CA. John will receive $27,000 in cash if he can get it to the man. John's first tip off that something odd is going on comes when, along with the suitcase, he's given a loaded gun and instructions to defend the package with his life if necessary.
