Kai and Jiajia are friends, sometimes lovers, in Taipei who sometimes steal and resell cars for cash. One such car turns out to have been stolen already for use in a gangland murder. The original owner takes out an ad offering a reward for its return, and Kai and Jiajia reply.

Then Kai falls in with the mobsters who stole the car.
