After incurring a huge debt with a crime lord, con man Eddie Sullivan (Mark Feuerstein) needs some quick cash. Upon hearing that a local orphanage also desperately needs funds, Eddie convinces the head nun that one of the residents, a gentle giant named Walter (The Big Show), can win the money as a traveling fighter. The nun gives Eddie and Walter one week, and as they journey across the South, Eddie wonders if he can really go through with his plan to keep all the money for himself.
