Sammy Smalls is a 21-year-old tomboy who works as a store detective, catching shoplifters for her boss who beats them up so they never re-offend. She is head over heels for scruffy musician Eugene Zaslavsky. He’s perfect for her, but doesn’t want to be in a relationship.
After a disastrous one-night stand, Eugene suggests they play the field to get more experience. Following his advice, Sammy hatches a plan catapulting her on a quest that takes her through her neighbours’ bedroom, the public swimming pool, and finally to blackmailing shoplifters into giving her sex lessons in the woods behind the supermarket.
