In 1976, four students took a trip to the desert. Now the repercussions of that fateful summer are coming back to haunt them.

Even, perhaps, a happy ending.

We've all been there. One minute, you're sprawled out on your bed, minding our own business, and the next, you're lying in the back seat of your best friend's car as she races you to the ER.

When our eyes locked over the busty, blonde stripper who was gyrating against me and he smiled, it was all the encouragement I needed. I have no idea what happened next.
