Mitch is a rich and powerful man, however, and soon, Slim begins to discover a dark side to him. Mitch believes that his money and power will give him anything and he has a misogynistic streak. He beats Slim and threatens to kill her. The police cannot help, because the best they can do is jail him for a short period, and meanwhile she would risk losing her daughter to state family protection programs.
Mitch stops all her credit cards and freezes her accounts. Slim and Gracie then flee to a motel, but Mitch finds them. They escape on a public bus, and move to Seattle, where she meets with her former boyfriend, Joe, who still has feelings for her. Meanwhile Mitch turns to Robbie, his contact in the Los Angeles Police, the same man who had verbally abused Slim at the diner. It emerges that Mitch and Robbie had scammed several women using the "verbal abuse" trick, and Mitch had several mistresses. Mitch locates Joe's residence and sends three men there to search for Slim and Gracie, but are unsuccessful.

Renee Graham of The Boston Globe said the film "shamelessly exploits the horror of domestic violence for melodramatic, cheap thrills. The Boston Globe (and Boston Sunday Globe) is the most widely circulated daily Newspaper in Boston and in New England, "[4] BBC film critic Jamie Russell said "the crassness of this reactionary thriller is matched only by the ridiculousness of its premise. "[4] Jim Judy of Screen it! said "it's just too bad that so much of the film is heavy-handed, manipulative and contrived, or simply so hard to believe. "[4] Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times called it "a nasty item masquerading as a feminist revenge picture. Roger Joseph Ebert (iːbɝt born June 18, 1942) is an American film critic and Screenwriter. The Chicago Sun-Times is an American daily Newspaper published in Chicago, Illinois. "[4] New York Magazine critic Peter Rainer said "Clumsy, obvious, preposterous, the movie will likely set the cause of woman warriors back decades. New York is a weekly magazine concerned with the life culture politics and style of New York City. "[4] Richard Roeper said "It's a loathsome movie, it really is and it makes absolutely no sense. "[4]
Joe Leydon of the San Francisco Examiner called it "a juicy, pulpy and entirely shameless melodrama, the kind of well-tooled popcorn flick that manages the difficult feat of appealing to your worst instincts without making you feel ashamed of yourself. The San Francisco Examiner is a US daily Newspaper. It has been published continuously in San Francisco, California, since "[4] Joe Baltake of The Sacramento Bee said the film was "perhaps the guiltiest guilty pleasure in a long time. The Sacramento Bee is a daily newspaper published in Sacramento California, in the United States. "[4]
