Sean (James Van der Beek) lusts after the unapproachable Lauren (Shannyn Sossaman); Lauren is seeing Victor (Kip Pardue), a handsome and egotistical ladies' man; Victor is also secretly seeing Lauren's room-mate Lara (Jessica Biel); Lauren's ex, Paul (Ian Somerhalder), has become smitten by Sean; and affable Rupert (Clifton Collins Jr) has become the campus drug dealer, readily supplying his classmates with cocaine. Soon their lives move into a more serious gear as Sean finds himself dealing drugs in order to pay debts and encouraging Paul to become one of his customers.

Drama starring Philip Caland and Forest Whitaker. Fashion designer Amer Atrash (Caland) has become so immersed in his business that he has neglected his wife Sherry (Virginia Madsen) and their young daughter. When Sherry decides that enough is enough and asks her husband to leave the family home, he finds himself confronting a dark secret from his past: a hit-and-run incident in which he knocked down a pedestrian, Philip Blackman (Forest Whitaker), leaving him a paraplegic. Convinced that his failings in life might be the result of bad karma, Amer sets out to track down Philip and put right his wrongdoing.
