Plot
1. In Los Angeles, California, Vic is met by Director Phillips. Because Vic has brought weapons with him on the private airplane that Sean owns, Phillips warns Vic that he'll be watching him. The mechanics around the plot are entirely disjointed, but it boils down to the story of a presidential candidate named Senator Jeffers who is a strong proponent for second amendment rights. Eventually, the story shifts to a band of well paid mercenaries who pose as secret service and various school employees to kidnap Erin, the daughter of sitting Supreme Court Justice Walton.
2. Erin and her boyfriend Sean are finding their relationship kicking into another gear. It just so happens that Sean's father, a decorated Delta Force operator named Vic, is en-route to pick him up and spend some much needed father-son bonding time together. On campus, with Erin and Sean the only students remaining, Vic quickly realizes that there's something suspicious about Erin's new driver. Vic calls the driver's bluff, beginning a bloody battle of survival with several innocent lives, and the fate of a nation, hanging in the balance.
3. The daughter of America's Supreme Court judge is about to be abducted, but her boyfriend’s father: an ex-Army man comes to their rescue. Will he able to thwart the abduction and save lives, The Driver realizes that he should’ve checked Vic's pulse, because much to The Driver’s surprise, he gets word that Vic is still breathing and is on the way to the hospital, so The Driver decides that he has to go to the hospital and finish him off.

In a back room, Sproule snorts some coke and necks with a woman who is not Olivia. Charlie walks up to Sproule, saying that they need to talk.

Olivia and Sproule have an argument before Olivia and Vic leave.
5. At the mansion, Olivia, talking to Sean, is wishing Vic had knocked Sproule on his ass as well. Olivia thinks Sproule is getting arrogant and out-of-control. Later, Phillips arrives at the mansion, looking for Vic, but Kyle, a man who works for Sean, tells Phillips that Vic is in town to get some medicine. Phillips says "If he becomes a problem, you and your boss will pay the price."
