The story

Convict Jack Hammond stops at a gas station in Newport Beach, California, where he encounters two police officers and a young woman. When the officers receive a radio call indicating that the car Jack is driving is stolen, he panics and uses a Butterfinger candy bar as a makeshift gun to kidnap the woman and escape. Fleeing in her car, Jack learns that his hostage is Natalie Voss, daughter of a billionaire industrialist, Dalton Voss.
