En route to a delivery, Frank discovers a fresh accident and a man, Steve (John Goodman), is dying in the wreckage. Waiting together for the inevitable, Steve pleads with Frank to complete for him the mission he was on before the wreck - to meet an old sweetheart. The trail leads Frank to the Marilyn Hotchkiss' Ballroom Dancing and Charm School.
