[edit] Plot summary

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

After a vacation in Malaysia, one of three friends is arrested for possession of drugs. The Malaysian government sends word to his companions demanding that they return to Malaysia to take their fair share of the responsibility, or their friend will hang in eight days. In the end one returns, but the Malaysian government then reneges on the deal.

Spoilers end here.
