Ernesto goes to look at used cars. He wants to give up his
Volvo because it isn't cool. He buys another car and donates
his old one to Yvette's needy family. During the car search,
Ernesto and his friends meet a veteran who is trying to get
his money back for the used junker he purchased. Paul
Morales, Ernesto's tough friend, helps. Unfortunately,
suspicion falls on the group when the used car lot's offices
are burned to the ground. Money and computer equipment has
gone missing. The police question everyone about the theft
and destruction. Then, Jorge Aguilar, a track team teammate
is arrested. The evidence is hard to deny. Ernesto and his
pals are unconvinced that Jorge has it in him. When they
meet Aguilar's older sister, Dawn, there are red flags
everywhere. She has a leech of a boyfriend, who just so
happened to buy a hunk of junk from the same lot. Does Dawn
know that her brother was set up and is staying quiet?
Ernesto and Paul lay a guilt trip on her.
