The film follows the story of a down-on-his-luck TV producer (Matthew Broderick) who is recovering from his drug and alcohol addiction which caused him to vomit on stage at the Emmys and lose $150,000 betting on a horse race. However, regardless of his past, he is sent on a mission by his wife to find their niece Amanda, who is working as a stripper in Las Vegas, and convince her to follow him into rehab. But once in Vegas, his uncontrollable old compulsions reassert themselves with a vengeance.
