Chris Vaughn, un soldato in congedo delle forze speciali del corpo dei Marines, ritorna al paese natale per ricominciare una nuova vita. Tuttavia nel frattempo le cose sono cambiate: la segheria dove lavorava il padre è stata chiusa ed ora la maggiore fonte di reddito della città proviene dal casinò gestito dal suo vecchio rivale (nonché ex compagno di liceo) Jay Hamilton. Inoltre, alla festa di bentornato Chris scopre che la sua ex fiamma Deni lavora come spogliarellista alle dipendenze di Hamilton...
