Svibnja 1969. godine, Lou Jean Poplin, gonjena strahom da će skrbništvo nad njihov sinom biti dano njenoj majci, pomaže svome suprugu Clovisu Michaelu Poplinu pobjeći sa zatvorske farme Beauford H. Jester. koja se nalazi u Teksasu. Tijekom svoga putovanja, oni savladavaju i otimaju policajca Maxwella Slidea, kojega potom drže kao taoca u svome sporome karavanu. Poplinovi i Slide putuju kroz Beaumont, Dayton, Houston, Cleveland, Conroe i na kraju Wheelock, Texas. Za razliku od događaja u filmu, oni stvarni su se odigrali u svega nekoliko sati.

Poplinovi potom dovode Slidea u dom Lou Jeanine majke, u kojem se dotični susreću sa brojnim snagama reda i zakona. Upravo ondje FBI agent i okružni šerif pucnjevima iz vatrenog oružja ubijaju Clovisa Michaela Poplina a potom i uhićuju Lou Jean Poplin. Kroz cijeli događaj oteti policajac prolazi neozlijeđen. Lou Jean Poplin provodi pet mjeseci u zatvoru za žene. Dotična Lou Jean je umrla u Livingstonu u Texasu 1989. godine. Pravi Crone je bio savjetnik na snimanju filma te je odigrao manju ulogu u filmu kroz lik zamjenika šerifa. Prethodno spomenuti gospodin Kenneth Crone je umro u 10. veljače 2011. godine.
