Synopsis by Sandra Brennan
This low-brow drama centers on the lives of some slimy characters. The sordid mess begins when Terry "lullaby" Fairlane is released from prison. He spent nine years there after raping his wife Michelle's 12-year old sister. The only one who is really glad to see him is simpleton Speck White who works as a towel boy in a rundown boxing club. Terry moves in with Speck and his wife, the pothead Brenda. Terry runs across his ex-wife, now a college student, and when she rejects him, the loyal Speck goes out and kidnaps him a woman. Though he doesn't want her, Terry has Speck keep the woman anyway. Real trouble ensues.
