Macrae and Charlie meet by chance in New York's Battery Park. Macrae is AWOL from the army, living on the fringe. Charlie is a University of Chicago graduate and increasingly psychotic. Within minutes after their meeting, they've teamed up to rob the first of a series of victims carrying ATM cash cards.
