Running with Violet

- Season 1

(2017)

Struggling hairdresser and single mother Jolene tries to convince lonely housewife Miranda to go with her on a girls weekend - with diapers. When Miranda finds herself in a violent confrontation with her slimy husband Blair, the girls weekend and possibility of escape suddenly seems like the very best plan.

The weekend goes quickly awry when Miranda confesses about what's in the trunk of the car. The women stop at a roadside diner to regroup where they meet the mysterious waitress Stella. She seems to be expecting them and passes them an address to a motel.

Back in the car Jolene angrily drives them down a wrong short cut. Checking in with Violet she notices some dangerous looking packages on the floor of Miranda's car. A curious pair of Norwegians who claim to be doing soil testing in Pictonville pass by just at that moment.

After another pee break for toddler Violet, the women get back on the road, this time with teenager Frankie along for the ride. When a shady cop pulls them over, things take a very dark turn changing the course of the girls weekend once again.

Jolene and Miranda set to work digging a hole for the dead "cop." Frankie suddenly makes the link that Stella thinks they're drug dealers. Stella shows up and orders them to the drug drop off spot.

The women arrive at the drug drop off spot where they intend to do the 'deal' and make some mad cash, all while keeping Violet safe. Unbeknownst to them there are cops surveying the room and tracking their every move.

Miranda's husband Blair suddenly reappears, forcing another violent confrontation. Quirky cop Stewart pushes Jolene and Frankie aside as he searches their motel room for drugs.

Now wearing the cop wires, Jolene, Miranda and Frankie wait anxiously for the drug dealers to show up.

Having dealt with a mess of her own, Stella shows up at the motel in a disturbed state, surprising the women and drug dealers Deedee and Ranger.

A showdown between all parties leads to a casualty and the end of the sting operation. Miranda and Jolene decide to embark on a real girls weekend in Florida.
