A bellboy gets fired for providing guest services outside his job requirements and his troubles are just beginning. A night in jail for drunk driving incites a flurry of misfortunes and puts a hamper on his girlfriend's plans for their future, resulting in her imminent departure. Then while pursuing job opportunities to make ends meet, his pile of bills leave him bare-boned. He goes from sports car to bus pass and from ocean condo to crummy efficiency. As a Cuban immigrant boy, he had Hollywood dreams that seemed far-fetched; now they're simply out of sight. But when his cynical, false friend disparages his intention, his intention becomes his quest. The once cunning bellboy writes a script and fails miserably time and time again. His despair leads him down a destructive path of vice, but nevertheless a true friend continues encouraging him; whereas his false friend who's bent on proving him wrong, spills knowledge that ends his romance with a new girl, who was a light of inspiration. After more deprecating remarks, now from his stepfather, he shamefully accepts money from his mother and promises to repay her, yet her only petition is that he honor the memory of his father. Penniless and homeless, he's taken in by his true friend, who further stirs him on. Then, sifting through his backpack for his phone one day, he comes across a business card that realigns his stars. And one day at a popular neighborhood restaurant, his redemption comes full circle turning the table on his false friend by doling out a taste of his false friend's own patronizing advice. Subsequently, with nothing left to lose, he sets his sights on tinsel town to rewrite his life.
