Spoilers ahead
Mid-level drug dealers Eddie and Frank grow restless with their limited growth potential and set up a meeting with their supplier, Madsen. Instead of negotiating, Frank impulsively murders Madsen and takes his cocaine. Eddie’s excitement quickly turns to apprehension when he hears about Madsen’s death, but Frank talks him into bluffing their way back into drug lord Vincent Camastra’s good graces.
At the same time, dirty cop Jack Reiley investigates the murder and is annoyed when DEA agent Maxwell takes over.
As Frank attempts to save his relationship with his naive girlfriend Ashley, Reiley violently bullies his informants for information, and Camastra sends assassins to kill Eddie. Eddie engages in a brief gunfight with the assassins, and Camastra himself beats Eddie unconscious.
