Nekega večera Wiley Roth na tleh svoje kuhinje naleti na odrezan človeški prst. Povsem pričakovano ga njegovo odkritje pretrese in šokira. Svojo najdbo pokaže najboljšemu prijatelju Mitchu, s katerim bosta skušala odkriti skrivnostnega lastnika prsta. Pri tem bo Wiley naletel na devetprsto Cheryl, ki bi lahko bila dekle njegovih sanj.
An offbeat comedy in the style of "Bottle Rocket" and "After Hours". Wiley Roth finds a severed human finger in his kitchen one night. Understandably freaked out, Wiley and his best friend Mitch try to figure out the mystery of the finger, in a search across Los Angeles that brings them in contact with psychics, ineffectual police, crooked taxidermists, mysterious neighbors who might be on drugs, and a nine-fingered woman named Cheryl who might, improbably, end up being the girl of his dreams.
