After a rough break-up, Elizabeth sets out on a journey across America, leaving behind her life in 
search of something to mend her broken heart. Waitressing her way through the country, she befriends 
a troubled cop and his estranged wife and a down-on-her luck gambler with a score to settle. Through 
these chance encounters, Elizabeth witnesses the true depths of loneliness and emptiness, and begins 
to understand that her own journey is part of a deeper exploration of herself.

==========

Elizabeth's heart is broken. For solace, she drops in late at night a few times at Jeremy's diner for 
blueberry pie a la mode; they talk. Once, he watchers her sleep, her head on the counter. Abruptly, 
she leaves New York City to get away from her pain. She works a couple of jobs in Memphis. There, a 
heart-broken cop is drinking himself into oblivion, his ex occasionally showing up where he drinks 
and Lizzy works. Then, she's in Nevada, working at a casino where she uses her savings (she wants a 
car) to stake Leslie, a busted gambler, in a high rollers' game. After, Beth drives Leslie to Vegas 
where Leslie's estranged father lives. Broken relationships. What about Jeremy?
