When Urbb, her much older husband, is invited to a VFW convention in Las Vegas, she urges him to go. But Urbb dies unexpectedly, leaving Iris to go to Las Vegas alone. Also on the road to Las Vegas are their more prosperous neighbors, Forky and Netta Stimple. The Stimples have built a huge, stinking hog confinement directly across the road from the Haugsdahl farm - on purpose. They are confident that what they see as their esteemed position at home will translate successfully to Vegas. As for Iris, she is marked by her na vet , making her the target of the huckters she meets. Kitty Velour sees that. Kitty, a transgender lounge singer and Vegas veteran, sets out to save Iris by remaking the farm wife in her image. It is, of course, a mistake.
