Small-time pool hustler "Fast Eddie" Felson travels cross-country with partner Charlie to challenge the legendary player "Minnesota Fats" After 25 hours and an entire bottle of bourbon, Eddie is ahead over $18,000, but loses it all along with all but $200 of his original stake. Eddie stashes his belongings at the local bus terminal, where he meets Sarah Packard, an alcoholic who is supported by her father, attends college part-time, and walks with a limp.
