Ethan Mao is a closeted gay teen who is kicked out of his house after his stepmother exposes his sexuality to his traditionalist father. On the street, Ethan is forced to become a hustler for money, soon meeting, befriending, and moving in with Remigio, another teen hustler and drug dealer. The two plan to go to Ethan's old home over the Thanksgiving holiday (when Ethan knows everyone will be away visiting other family) to get money, some old belongings, and Ethan's deceased mother's necklace—which he feels is the only thing he has to remember her by. But when the family unexpectedly returns to the house, they feel forced to take everyone hostage.
