An unidentified woman engages in a brutal fight with a man in a car. After a fierce struggle, she manages to shoot him in the head. Five years earlier, the same woman, Riley North, is working as a banker in Los Angeles, struggling to make ends meet. Her husband Chris owns a failing mechanic shop, and together, they have a ten-year-old daughter, Carly.

Chris’s friend tries to coerce him into robbing Diego Garcia, a powerful drug lord. Garcia, having already discovered his involvement, orders his men to make an example of him. Despite her injuries, Riley is able to positively identify the shooters. The LAPD detectives handling the case are hesitant to pursue charges against the three, as they are members of Garcia’s drug cartel, which wields considerable power and influence. Prior to the preliminary hearing, Riley is visited by the perpetrators’s lawyer, who tries to bribe her.
