Spoilers ahead
Frank Murphy is a seasoned LAPD air support division pilot and a troubled Vietnam War veteran plagued by post-traumatic stress. He works with a fresh, eager observer, Richard Lymangood, and together they patrol Los Angeles from the skies, guiding ground units and lending a steady hand to police forces when needed. Their routine flights are a blend of precision, nerves, and the quiet camaraderie that forms between two people who have seen the worst of humanity up close. The city below glows with urban lights, and the helicopter’s rotor wash becomes a drumbeat to the city’s nocturnal tempo.
