When a reformed grifter currently running a prosperous alibi service for
adulterous husbands inadvertently becomes an accessory to murder, he is
forced to execute one last, well-timed con as a means of clearing his name.
Ray is a smooth operator with a special knack for helping his fellow man
dodge the proverbial bullet. When a married man simply can't resist the urge
to have a bit of fun on the side, Ray is the man they call to ensure that
word of their infidelity never gets back to their unsuspecting wives. When
the spoiled son of a high-profile client accidentally kills his clandestine
lover on the eve of his wedding, Ray is shocked to discover that he has been
implicated in the crime. With a small-town cop targeting him on one side and
a mysterious assassin known as "The Mormon" locking him into his sights from
the other, desperate Ray must now enlist the aid of his beautiful new
recruit Lola in carrying out one last con designed to both clear his name
and save his life.

says
"I
play Sam Elliot's wife in a movie called The Alibi, I play a nice Mormon
wife. Yeah, I play one of many. I think I have four other wives in my
family. [laughs] But, of course, I put a really realistic spin on it -- I'm
like a Mormon slut-wife. [laughter] I know, it's impossible. I don't know
what I was thinking"
