Summary:

Charlotte is a seemingly mild-mannered, middle-aged housewife, who's decided to leave her husband and skip town. Her mind is made up and all that's left to do is go to the bank and withdraw her money. But while she's waiting in line, her plans are suddenly changed when a desperate young man robs the bank and takes Charlotte along as a hostage. What ensues is a wild and quirky trip that includes car theft, demolition derbies, a cat named Murder, and even romance.
