POETIC JUSTICESynopsis The Wolf is developing a reputation as a predator. From Las Vegas to San Francisco, he has managed to elude discovery. In his eyes, he is not the monster the media is saying he is, but a misunderstood and misjudged man who loves and understands women and just wants to make them happy. After yet another failed attempt at connection, he heads to Los Angeles. One night at a bar called Ryan's, he meets an attractive young woman named Wendy, whom he comes to believe is the soulmate he has been searching for. After a disastrous breakup and a history of picking the wrong men, Wendy has given up all hope of finding a soulmate, until the Wolf walks into her life. When Wendy goes off the grid for a few days, her best friend Cilla is concerned, and asks for help from Sam, a private detective with a poetic streak, to find her. He does, but as in life, nothing is what it seems to be. Feelings change; perceptions change; but destiny has its way in the end.

Lenny was the getaway driver for a group of sophisticated jewel thieves. They got away, he got caught. Now released after 10 years in prison, Lenny's kept his cool, kept his secrets, and emerges as a new man, with two goals: leave his criminal past behind and reunite with his wife, Maureen, who divorced him while he was in prison. His son Flynn picks him up and takes him back to his own place in Hollywood. Lenny begins to acclimate to life on the outside and plans to reunite with Maureen. It's a process, but Lenny, the eternal optimist, believes everything will work out. Then he gets a phone call from Deek, the leader of the gang, wanting to welcome him back to the world and thank him for keeping his mouth shut while inside. Lenny reluctantly agrees to meet him, and Deek has quite a surprise for him: his split of their final deal. Deek slides an envelope across the table to Lenny. The envelope is thin, so Lenny is confused. Turns out it's a Bitcoin certificate, an account Deek set up in Lenny's name. Perfectly legal, he says, and when Lenny takes a look at the amount and sees all those zeros, he's speechless. After talking it over with Flynn, Lenny decides he can't accept the money. Legal or not, it's a link to his past he's trying to move on from. So the next day, they drive to Deek's gorgeous house on the beach to return the envelope. But Deek is not someone who takes no for an answer, or rejection of what he considers his kind act. The envelope goes back and forth, relationships come together and fall apart, and in the end, everyone gets what they deserve, or at least what karma has decided for them.
