...removed on arrival in the U.S. An undercover sting operation had also enticed the suspects into smuggling weapons and explosives aboard planes. Agents began investigating the smuggling ring after in-flight coffee, which an American pilot had complained was too weak, turned out to have been accidentally laced with heroin...
High school grads Alice (Claire Danes) and Darlene (Kate Beckinsale) lark off to Thailand, where they get framed on a heroin rap. The dank, formulaic script allows few of the moral ambiguities of 1998's Return to Paradise (there the country was Malaysia, and the American prisoner sort of guilty).

Data from U.S. satellites indicate "an explosion" of drug growth inside Colombia over the next couple of years, McCaffery says, and that means more...
...reconsider what constitutes healthy, full-bodied femininity. Fit as fiddles, Chastain is 5 ft. 7 in. and 130 lbs., Scurry is 5 ft. 8 in. and 145 lbs., Foudy is 5 ft. 6 in. and 130 lbs., Akers is 5 ft. 10 in. and 150 lbs. There's no heroin chic in Babe City. Those, little Suzie, are role-model physiques...
