Fire with Fire Plot Summary

What happens in Fire with Fire from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 14 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 3-minute read.

Spoilers ahead

After a long, exhausting shift in Long Beach, Jeremy Coleman, a dedicated firefighter, and his colleagues consider winding down with a bottle of 15-year-old Scotch. In a nearby convenience store, an unexpected confrontation erupts with Neil Hagan, an Aryan Brotherhood crime boss who presses the owner to align with his criminal plans. The owner insists the shop already pays protection to the Eastside Crips and belongs to their territory, so the scheme wouldn’t serve Hagan’s purposes. In a violent burst of greed, Hagan kills the store owner’s son and then the store owner himself, and Coleman barely escapes the deadly encounter. Mike Cella, a police detective whose former partner was murdered by Hagan in a different case, sees an opportunity to finally bring the man to justice.
