Spoilers ahead
Dennis is in love with Tiffany, a prostitute. He isn’t particularly drawn to sex, but he pays her to keep him company and showers her with expensive gifts. He funds this by repeatedly stealing diamonds from his employer, Globus Diamonds. Faced with an upcoming investigation into the missing stones, he fears he can’t keep living like this, so he plans one last heist — bigger than any before. He succeeds and leaves most of the diamonds with Tiffany’s parents, who agree to hide them. The two of them then flee to Mexico: Dennis escapes the country, while Tiffany’s wish to visit that sunny destination is fulfilled. Because the theft is already discovered, their departure is complicated by travel logistics, and Dennis must obtain a false passport to keep moving.
