"Pimped" is an Australian thriller film that tells the story of a young woman named Sarah who encounters a charming man named Lewis on a night out. Sarah is immediately intrigued by Lewis, who seems to have a way with words and a knack for making her feel special. However, she soon learns that Lewis is not what he seems; he is actually part of a twisted plan devised by his friend Kenneth, a wealthy and spoiled young man who enjoys manipulating people for his own sick pleasure.
Kenneth has masterminded a plan to lure unsuspecting women into his home, where he and Lewis can subject them to a night of sexual debauchery. However, things go wrong when Sarah proves to be more savvy and resourceful than they had anticipated. She quickly sees through their ruse and tries to escape, but finds herself trapped in a deadly game of cat and mouse with both Lewis and Kenneth.
As the night wears on, Sarah becomes increasingly desperate to escape the clutches of her captors. Lewis, who has grown increasingly fond of her, begins to regret his involvement in the plan and tries to protect her from the dangers that lie ahead. Meanwhile, Kenneth grows increasingly unhinged, and it becomes clear that he is willing to do whatever it takes to maintain control over the situation.
