Meet Toby, who never run a red light, married the only boy she ever dated, had a family, and attended church regularly. She fulfilled all of her responsibilities and more. No one could have predicted that Toby would wind up on the run, shacked up with her younger boyfriend John, a convicted killer, when she quits her job and forms a non-profit to rehabilitate mistreated, rescued canines at the nearby prison. The star-crossed lovers devise a scheme to smuggle John out of jail in one of the dog crates, triggering a government search.
