Cal Shy is a college professor who just lost his job, his wife and his tenure. Jack Shy is a math prodigy with a compulsive gambling habit on the run from the Greek Mafia in Reno. And Leonard Fawcett...well Leonard Fawcett is their cousin. And together, they decide to become the news sensation of the early 80's: "The Honey Pot Boys"; a trio of masked men who rob banks across the heartlands of America. With bees. Hot on their tails is the local sheriff who's seen it all; Montague Booker and his inept young deputy, James "Frisbee" Duchamp. No nonsense Special Agent Natasha Guthrie is sent from the F.B.I. to assist in the heavily publicized affair while Reno Godfather Maceo Drakoulis will do anything to get his cut. These characters and more collide; all of them racing for a taste of the American Dream. Will the sweetness be worth their pain?
