Imagine if you ran off on the plug twice. Better yet, wouldn't it be even sweeter if you didn't need to get it the ski-mask way? To hit a dope boy lick, and then never look back again? Some burglars thought so. However, it's well known that everything that glitters ain't gold.

This story is told of some friends coming from nothing to something in Miami Florida. They shared a mutual passion for money, with thoughts on how to get hood rich. At the center of this caper are four co-conspirators; 19 year old Ryan "Jit" Henderson and Jerome "Swole" Parker, who became partners after they were fired from work. Being ex-convicts, the two of them fall on hard times when unable to find another job. Eventually their financial stresses force them to give up on earning an honest living and try the game. These crooks come from varied homes; one middle-class, two gutter brothers, and a little Haitian baby. But class distinction made no difference in the streets. If you were a go-getter and had some potential, you were accepted. Two schemed and two plotted, but they all had ulterior motives. That is, all but one mastermind. He was on a mission to come out on top, but to do that he had to start from the bottom. The action gets hot when a clever plan is hatched to steal a stash of kilos and drug money belonging to ruthless Haitian Zoe pound, right from under their nose. In comes Zoey, a set-up girl, who is down for a role she was born to play. She comes dressed to impress and ready to finesse. Armed with the sexy accomplice, and Hollywood, Swoles brother, they have to make their next move their best move, but it could also backfire, at the cost of their lives.

Of course, we all know what happens to friends in the end. The only question is, which ones will be left holding the back-stabbing knife when the other turns around and be the least one expected? They soon learn there is no honor amongst thieves, and that cashing out the game isn't as easy as cashing in. There is always an ultimate price to pay, but will this once in a lifetime chance be worth it? Only way to tell what the lick reads is when you see what it hit for.
