In need of money after damaging their dad's truck, Sterling and Blair team up with veteran bounty hunter Bowser to help capture a frenemy's father.
Plot[]
Blair and Sterling Wesley, twin sisters who suddenly find themselves in need of cash after Blair accidentally dents their dad’s prized hunting truck. In Blair’s defense, Sterling had just dropped the news that she lost her virginity to boyfriend Luke, so Blair didn’t exactly have the wherewithal to notice that she was about to hit someone.
The man Blair avoided hitting pulls a gun on her, only to have Sterling pull a shotgun on him. We then learn that this man is being pursued by a bounty hunter named Bowser Simmons, who soon shows up to claim his prize. Likely emboldened by the shotgun in her possession, Sterling works out a deal to split the reward with Bowser — the beginning of a partnership.
The girls’ lives are further complicated when Sterling is named the new fellowship leader at their private Christian high school, Willingham Academy, making an enemy of mean girl April Stevens. And when April stumbles upon an empty condom wrapper in her bag, Sterling watches in horror knowing that April will hold it over her head.
When the girls learn that their first hunt didn’t make them enough to fix their dad’s car, they strike another deal with Bowser to track down another target at a racist country club. As luck would have it, the slime ball — who apparently assaulted a prostitute — turns out to be April’s dad, so Sterling takes extra pleasure in tracking him down, knocking him out and turning him over to the authorities.
Impressed with their natural abilities, Bowser agrees to let the girls work at his frozen yogurt shop while moonlighting as teenage bounty hunters. In the distance, a poster reveals that the twins’ mother is one of the wanted women on Bowser’s wall.
