Spoilers ahead
Laine, a drifting wanderer, drifts through a quiet morning after dozing in her car in the parking lot of a small motel. When she wakes, she hides a personalized money clip and is soon welcomed by Luanne, the motel’s owner, who offers Laine a free meal as a kind of first gesture. As a local police officer named Gault arrives on the scene to fix Laine’s flat tire, he informs her that a brutal murder has rocked nearby Flagstaff. In a small, almost incidental moment of kindness, Laine makes a coffee for Gault as a favor for Luanne. This simple exchange plants the seed for a new possibility: a job.
