Spoilers ahead

Trace McGraw arrives by taxi in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, already running late for a chance to reinvent himself. A friend lends him a sea-worthy boat and warns that he’ll be out of reach for two months with no reliable mobile reception. Another buddy jokes that Trace is still a captain of the rich and famous, but warns that his papers aren’t in order, pushing Trace to improvise a little, even offering a necklace that’s touted as an aphrodisiac to seal a deal. A wary word about Calderón](/actor/humberto-busto) lingers as Trace sets his sights on a fresh start.
