Naturally, Kurt, Linda, Danny and Carrie are invited, but Jesse decides to also invite Diego and Irma. Diego then offers to hang the Christmas lights outside Jesse's house. Later, Diego and Irma stop by to announce that they can't come because Irma already had tickets to the mayor's charity ball. Which also means that Diego doesn't have the time to hang the lights. Jesse gets fixated on her anger towards Diego and starts venting it out on everyone else. Add the antipathy already existing between Linda and Kurt and you do not have a good start for a party. And things are only about to get more tense...

Many different facets of society are reflected over one driver's shift. He starts out it seems as a cold, ignorant man. But his character develops as the different people of Chicago come & go. His character shows through when he tells a woman the truth about one of the huys he has in his cab. One highlight of this is the amount of cameos by well known faces who seem to be doing this film for the craic. The cab driver reacts well to the madness surrounding him & you can almost share his tiredness at the end of the shift. Crackheads, stoners, posh randy lawyers, irate Pakistanis and the high & lows of the working day are dealt with in this low budget film.
