PlotIn a small-town Nevada police station, rookie officer Valerie Young faces a bizarre situation when a seemingly intoxicated conman, Teddy Murretto, punches her to deliberately get himself arrested. Unbeknownst to the officers and other detainees, Teddy is hiding from a hitman, Bob Viddick, who poses as a drunk driver to infiltrate the jail and assassinate Teddy. Both Teddy and Bob find themselves detained in adjacent cells, where a tense game of cat-and-mouse begins to unfold within the tight confines of the police station. Valerie watches over the prisoners with growing suspicion, unaware of the deadly game brewing just a few feet away.
The drama escalates as another enigmatic figure arrives at the precinct, Tony Lamb, a rival contract killer with a violent streak and unpredictable nature that threatens everyone in the station. Lamb's arrival adds another layer of chaos, forcing Teddy and Bob to navigate their shared interests amidst a storm of deception, greed, and survival instincts. Valerie, caught in the fray, must muster her strategic skills and instincts as she tries to uncover the truth about her unwelcome guests and restore order before blood is spilled on her watch. In a night full of unexpected alliances and betrayals, the stakes rise as each character's loyalties and intentions come under scrutiny, leading to an explosive encounter where only the sharpest will stand a chance at survival.
