The film opens showing a dusty Texas town in the middle of nowhere, and tells the story of Justine Last, a thirty-year-old married woman who works at the local Retail Rodeo. Justine's life seems rather mundane. She works with an eccentric group of characters, including Cheryl, a cynical, young girl who inserts subliminal profanities to the sleepwalking customers; Gwen, the overly peppy, older woman who works with Justine in the cosmetics department; and Corny, the Bible-obsessed security guard. Justine returns home every night to her dim-witted and seriously clueless husband Phil, a house painter who spends more time getting high on the couch with his buddy Bubba than doing any work.
Justine feels trapped, and there seems like no sign of escape. Then, one day, a new, young cashier named Holden Worther starts working at the Retail Rodeo and Justine is almost immediately taken by him. Holden keeps to himself mostly and always has his nose in a copy of "Catcher in the Rye," claiming that his own life parallels that of Holden Caulfield. Justine and Holden start spending a lot of time together, having lunch everyday and even hanging out after work. Holden always manages to get Justine to take him home, by pretending to have a twisted ankle, and, one day, Holden tries to make a move in the car, but Justine stops him, reminding him that she's a married woman.
