A pair of convicts attempt to exploit a new rehab program that has inmates paired with female chaperones who escort them outside the prisons one weekend per month in the hopes that the feminine influence will imbue the criminals with good, loving, and more socially acceptable qualities. The two cons try hard to get into the program with the plan of robbing a bank. They succeed in the former, but their robbery plans are quickly derailed and they get in even bigger trouble. They also begin falling in love with their lovely escorts.
