One month after his reluctant return to civilization, Charlie Waldo struggles to balance his ascetic rules for living with the demands of a relationship.  Against his better judgment he gets drawn into the orbit of a wild and privileged L.A. teenager who tells lies as easily as she breathes, a case which drags Waldo into the opulent and seedy world of Orange County, where nothing is as it seems.
