00:00Terry Richmond, a former Marine, is cycling through the small town of Shelby with his
00:05earphones in.
00:06He fails to hear the cop car behind him, which suddenly hits him from his bike.
00:11Police officer Evan Marston holds his gun on Terry, claiming that Terry was fleeing
00:15from him.
00:16Another cop, Steve Lann, pulls up, his gun also trained on Terry as Evan puts him in
00:22handcuffs.
00:23The sadistic Steve threatens Terry with getting tased for trying to argue, then falsely claims
00:28that Terry's bike was reported stolen.
00:31Terry tries to explain that he had an earphones and could not hear, but the cops ignore him.
00:36Evan begins to search Terry while Steve runs his information but gets no hits.
00:40He returns and sees Terry's Marine tattoo, revealing that he is also a former Marine.
00:46Evan then goes into Terry's bag and removes a plastic bag of cash Terry was carrying to
00:50post bail for his cousin.
00:53Evan puts Terry inside his cruiser, then starts removing the cash, totaling $36,000
00:58from the bag.
00:59Terry explains the situation with posting bail and plans to buy a truck to start a legit
01:04business.
01:05Evan plans to give Terry a traffic ticket but refuses to return the cash as he claims
01:09it may be drug money.
01:11Terry tries to protest, but the cops threaten to arrest him on bogus laundering charges
01:16and throw him into jail if he tries to fight this case in court.
01:20Despite this, Terry keeps his cool and takes his traffic ticket.
01:24The cops soon leave the area.
01:26Terry cycles into town and heads over to the town hall and meets with the clerk of court,
01:31explaining the situation with the cops.
01:33The clerk is indifferent to the situation and adds that the inmates are being moved
01:37to a state prison as the jails are being renovated.
01:40The clerk leaves, and Terry meets another employee, Summer, who shows interest in Terry's
01:46situation.
01:47Terry explains that the cops seized his money under the same law that fights drug cartels
01:51and all cops need is a suspicion to seize any assets.
01:55To make things worse, when the case goes to court, the $36,000 will be treated as an individual,
02:01and Terry will not be named.
02:03Terry is disappointed hearing this, but Summer knows of a way to help him get some of the
02:07cash back.
02:08A cop enters, so the two leave, as the corrupt police chief has ears and eyes everywhere.
02:14Terry explains that his cousin was an informant who took down a gang, and if he is moved to
02:18state prison, he will be unalived.
02:21The transfer is to take place this Thursday, and Summer urges him to try and gather the
02:26money before then while she prepares the forms.
02:29Terry then contacts an old business partner, Mr. Liu, asking for a loan of $10,000 as early
02:34as Monday to get his brother bailed.
02:36The timing is short, but Liu agrees to help him out.
02:40Not wanting to leave town, Terry camps out in the forest, catching fish for his meal.
02:45He pulls up the location of the police station, planning to pay them a visit in the morning.
02:50He turns up to the station and speaks with a female cop, Jessica, to report the stolen
02:55money, but when she hears that the suspect is a cop, she gets nervous and steps away.
03:01At that moment, Steve approaches Terry, warning him to leave or be arrested for filing a false
03:06police report.
03:07Terry refuses to back down from Steve, but before the tension can escalate, Police Chief
03:12Sandy intervenes.
03:14He takes his officer's side, warning Terry to stop harassing his officers.
03:19He figures out that Terry has been recording their conversation and orders him to leave
03:23the station.
03:24Seeing his position, Terry tries to make a deal with the officers, just give him 10 grand
03:29so he can bail his cousin, and they can keep the rest.
03:33Sandy has Jessica leave the room, then agrees to Terry's deal once he signs a forfeiture
03:37form, which they will have in office on Monday.
03:40Terry then returns to his camp in the woods, having given up on his dreams of buying his
03:45truck.
03:46On Monday, Terry arrives at the station but learns from Sandy that the transport bus has
03:50already left.
03:52Terry leaves without saying a word, filled with rage and trying to catch up with the
03:56transport bus.
03:57He catches the bus on the highway and sees his cousin Mike, warning him to stay low as
04:02people know his identity in prison.
04:04The two manage to touch fists, and Mike promises to get him out.
04:08He contacts Lou but learns he can no longer honor their deal as the cops have raided his
04:13business after Terry named them in his statement.
04:16He goes back to speak with Summer, who reveals that she started looking into things but got
04:20serious pushback and is worried about losing her job.
04:24She refuses to help any further and asks him to leave.
04:27Terry exits the building, but Summer rushes out to speak with him.
04:31She tells him she uncovered a conspiracy to defraud misdemeanor defendants by holding
04:35them longer than usual in jail.
04:38She has created printouts to give to Terry but cannot help him any further.
04:42To get Mike out, his only hope is to come up with cash, and Summer promises to have
04:47the documents ready.
04:48The cops do a background check on Terry and list out all his credentials, including his
04:53MCMAP instructor certification, which they originally think is a navigator license.
04:59Before Jessica can look up what MCMAP means, Terry pulls up to the station.
05:03Sandy steps out to speak with Terry, revealing that he purposely misled him as Terry isn't
05:08anyone special to make any deals.
05:10He again threatens Terry with jail time, but this time Terry isn't messing around.
05:16He steps up to Sandy, reminiscing on his marine days where he learned a lot of acronyms, including
05:21PACE, PLANNING, ALTERNATIVE, CONTINGENCY, and EMERGENCY.
05:26His plan to bail his cousin was thwarted, his alternative was dishonored by Sandy, his
05:31contingency was lose help, which was also thwarted by Sandy, and now, Terry threatens
05:36to go to E. Just then Jessica pulls up the meaning of MCMAP and learns Terry is a renowned
05:41Marine Corps Martial Arts instructor.
05:44Steve tries to warn Sandy, but Terry swiftly disarms him.
05:48In a well-calculated move, Terry disarms both Steve and Sandy easily, holding Sandy at gunpoint
05:54and heading into the station.
05:56Terry knows Jessica is hiding and calls her out, ordering her to handcuff the two cops.
06:01He is Jessica find his money in the evidence room, but still honors the deal and takes
06:05only 10k.
06:07He then has Jessica escort him out of the station under apparent arrest to avoid drawing
06:11any suspicion to himself.
06:13He is Jessica drop him off at an abandoned road.
06:16Knowing that the cops are hunting for him, Terry hurries to the courthouse to post bail.
06:21It is a tense moment as the cash is being counted and the documents are being signed
06:25by the judge, and the bond is posted just before officers flood the courthouse and detain Terry.
06:31Terry is not placed in jail but is secretly transported along a dirt road by Steve and Sandy.
06:37While inside the station, Terry had noticed large sums of seized cash and weaponry, and
06:42Sandy explains that they used the seized cash to fund their own salary.
06:46Sandy is more worried about Terry blowing his entire operation and wants to make a deal
06:50with him.
06:51He drops Terry off at a medical center where his cousin will be flown into as he was attacked
06:56at the prison.
06:57They return Terry's cash to him and have paid off his truck in full, wanting him to walk
07:01away or face prison time.
07:04Terry accepts the deal with the hope that Mike will be okay, but soon learns that Mike
07:08has passed away.
07:09He removes his camping gear from the forest, and Summer gives him a ride.
07:14They are being followed by a cop car, but Terry tells her to play cool.
07:18She shows him files of other inmates the cops have defrauded, but Terry refuses to
07:23help her as he only cared about saving Mike.
07:26The cop car follows them to the county lines, then leaves them be.
07:30Summer drops Terry off at the gas station, and he leaves a number with her, telling her
07:34to contact him with more info on the cases.
07:37He has decided to help her since she made an effort to help him.
07:41Terry then goes to pick up the truck.
07:43That night, Summer wakes up to shadows moving in her home.
07:47She goes to the bathroom and sees an open syringe and realizes she has been injected.
07:52Summer starts to feel ill and barely manages to call Terry for help.
07:56Terry rushes over to the home where he sees Summer almost unconscious in the bath.
08:01Turns out Summer was injected with drugs and now fears it will be used against her and
08:05she will lose custody of her child.
08:07She tells Terry about her divorce and how she lost her family due to an incident that
08:11labeled her a felon.
08:13She plans to keep quiet about the attack in order to protect what she has worked for and
08:17to show up to work like nothing happened.
08:20She urges Terry to leave town and to grieve his cousin, reassuring him that she will be
08:24okay.
08:25The following day, the two say their goodbyes and Terry plans to leave town.
08:30Summer gets to work and is immediately summoned to see the judge as he was tipped off about
08:34her drug use.
08:36She is then ordered to complete a drug test on the spot, and she breaks down in the restrooms,
08:41knowing her life is over.
08:43Terry is driving along a dirt road when he passes a cop car, which starts to follow him.
08:48It is Steve who signals for him to pull over.
08:51When he does this, two other cop cars block the road, and Terry knows something is going
08:56down.
08:57He approaches, hand on weapon.
08:59Terry wonders why he didn't use his lights, but Steve does not want the dashcam to record.
09:05He suddenly tosses a gun into Terry's truck and opens fire, hitting him, but Terry manages
09:10to tase him before escaping into the woods under heavy gunfire.
09:14Terry ditches the car under a bridge and contacts Summer, who tells him about a visit she got
09:18from the cops warning her to leave town.
09:21Terry then gives her instructions on how to get to Lou, and he will meet her there.
09:26When she arrives, Terry is already there getting treatment for his gunshot wound, as Lou is
09:30an old former Korean Army medic.
09:33The two then plan their move going forward.
09:35They understand that the cops are coming after them because of what Summer uncovered, but
09:40Terry plans to stop running and give the cops what they deserve.
09:43That night, Summer and Terry meet with a friend of Summer named Elliot, who is afraid to reveal
09:48any information about the corruption.
09:51In code, he hints to the duo about a large settlement case that happened recently with
09:55the town, which is linked to the recent corruption, and that the town judge knows everything about
10:00it.
10:01Terry and Summer break into the judge's residence that night, and he immediately decides to
10:05talk in fear of his life.
10:07There was a case of police illegal search which led to wrongful death where Sandy was
10:11named personally, and the settlement nearly bankrupted the town.
10:15After this, the cops started to flag any cases that may get them sued and reduce charges
10:20to misdemeanors where bail amounts are not contested by a public defender.
10:25Money from this operation then flowed into the town, and everyone kept their mouths shut.
10:30Summer deduces that the stored dashcams are at the courthouse and would be enough to shut
10:34down the corrupted department, and Terry wonders what exactly happened in Mike's case.
10:39Summer demands information on how to gain access to the footage but realizes that the
10:43judge is purposely overdosed on his pills after he was alerted by Elliot of their arrival.
10:48They watch from a distance as the medics come to collect the judge.
10:52They plan to infiltrate the courthouse basement to steal the drives.
10:56They break into the courthouse through a rotted basement window and are walking through the
11:00catacombs when they see a trail of gas on the ground.
11:03It is suddenly lit, but Summer stops the blaze with a bottle of water.
11:07The cops are trying to burn the courthouse down, so they hurriedly locate the stash of
11:12SD cards.
11:14Terry reignites the blaze to not cause suspicion.
11:17Summer cannot leave just yet and sees an opportunity to fix her life.
11:21While Terry exits the courthouse and goes to bring the car around, Summer breaks into
11:25the courthouse lab and attempts to destroy her urine sample, but she is found by Steve.
11:31Terry is waiting for her when he sees the cops forcing Summer into a jeep and speeding
11:35off.
11:36Terry follows the jeep back to the police station and sees them take off again, leaving
11:40one cop sitting in his car.
11:43Terry rams the car and drags the struggling cop out, almost choking the man out.
11:48Terry cuffs him and demands to know where the men are taking Summer.
11:51The man denies knowing anything and begs Terry to spare him as he is not like the others.
11:56He has the cop radio Sandy, then tells Sandy he has the SD cards and the two plan to make
12:01a swap, the cards for Summer's life.
12:04The next morning, Steve is the exchange point with the team lying in wait to ambush Terry.
12:10Meanwhile, Terry, sitting in his car, contacts Sandy, who is still at the station with Jessica.
12:16He reminds Sandy of their talk about de-escalation, telling him they are way past that point.
12:22At that moment, Evan comes upon a car parked on a bridge and calls it in.
12:26He approaches the car cautiously with his gun drawn, but it is the captured policeman.
12:31It turns out that Terry is at the police station and rips a part of the wall out.
12:36Sandy calls for backup before pulling his gun and going to check, but Terry ambushes
12:40and shoots him with beanbag rounds.
12:43Jessica tries to arrest him, but Terry disarms her.
12:46He knows she is the one who has been helping Summer and urges her to do the right thing
12:50for Summer and hands her the SD cards.
12:53Terry threatens to burn all the station's cash unless he has proof that Summer is safe.
12:58Just then, the cops pull up and surround the station, and at that moment, Jessica holds
13:02her gun to Terry.
13:04She has him walk outside a gunpoint and hands the SD cards over to Steve, who destroys them.
13:10He then shows Terry a passed out Summer, whom he has injected with more drugs and is on
13:14the verge of overdosing.
13:16Steve aims his gun at Terry to kill him, but Evan cannot go through with his plan.
13:21The two begin to argue, which then escalates into a standoff.
13:25Sandy suddenly shoots Evan in the leg to disarm him but ends up hitting an artery.
13:30Terry uses the confusion to grab the money and Evan and get behind cover as the cops
13:34open fire.
13:35He then throws flashbangs at the cops, sending them running for cover.
13:40He then throws smoke grenades, and using the cover, he begins taking out the cops skillfully
13:45until he ambushes Steve, beating him unconscious.
13:49Terry then rushes to the car holding Summer and activates its lights and the dashcam.
13:53He hits her with Narcan, then helps Evan into the car.
13:57Steve tries to shoot, but his gun is empty, so he grabs onto Terry as he takes off.
14:03At that moment, Summer wakes up and pushes him from the car.
14:06The cops manage to hit the car tires, but the trio escape onto the highway.
14:12Sandy and the cops chase after the car and catch up with it.
14:15Sandy orders Jessica to do a pit maneuver on Terry.
14:18They prepare to be rammed, but Jessica passes Terry and does a pit maneuver on Sandy's car.
14:24The other cops have had a change of heart and begin escorting the three to a hospital.
14:29Terry carries her inside, before grabbing an axe and cutting the DVR from the car which
14:33had captured footage of Sandy firing at them, and sits with the evidence to catch his breath.
