Plot summary
Promethium is a pharmaceutical company in Chicago, and Harold Soyinka is a mild-mannered rep there. His bosses, Richard Rusk and Elaine Markinson, take him to Mexico for a merger deal, then leave him behind to handle other business. On a call home, his wife Bonnie says she is leaving him. Celerino Sanchez, who runs the Mexico plant, has been selling the company's marijuana pill to a cartel, and Promethium cuts him off. Cartel leader Villegas is told that Harold is the company's boss and sends men after him. Harold hides at a motel run by brothers Ronaldo and Ernesto, then calls Richard pretending to be a kidnap victim in need of a ransom. Richard turns to his brother Mitch.
