Jerry Seevers thought he had it all: a cushy job in the advertising business, a great bachelor lifestyle, a classic, rad Mustang, and a beautiful woman for a bedmate! Unfortunately, Jerry's lover, Elvira Broderick, happens to be his boss' wife, and she just witnessed an assault of a young woman right outside his bedroom window. Not wishing to expose their affair, Elvira asks Jerry to come forward as the witness and he agrees. Unfortunately, after he meets the attack victim, the sweet and vivacious Riley Donegan, he knows he has failed her by not properly identifying her assailant as a man by the name of Kasey Weems. The investigating detectives, Toomey Laramour and Saul Griegos, hoped to garner a conviction for the assault, until Jerry blows it on the witness stand. In the meantime, someone dubbed the Dumpster Killer has been terrifying the female populace of San Antonio. The sadistic murderer has struck three times, and each time Jerry seems to be in the immediate vicinity, thus prompting both detectives to suspect that he might actually be the man they're after. With his lover refusing to come forward, and with the police breathing down his neck, Jerry must now take the law into his own hands, especially when Elvira winds up dead. Enlisting the help of Riley Donegan, he must now play a dangerous game with a psychopathic killer in order to clear his name!
