LAPD detective Tom Ludlow is a ruthlessly efficient, unorthodox undercover cop. Captain Jack Wander always covers for Tom, as do even his somewhat jealous colleagues. After technically excessive violence against a vicious Korean gang during the liberation of a kidnapped kid sex slave, Tom becomes the target of IA's hotshot, captain James Biggs, who feels passed over after Wander's promotion to chief. Tom's corrupt, disloyal ex-patrol partner Terrence Washington sides with IA but is killed during a shop robbery in Tom's presence.

You're a couple panheads buyin' a machine gun out of a trunk.
Detective Cosmo Santos: [to Ludlow] How can you shoot a guy taking a dump? I mean, seriously, that's sacred. That's like shooting a man in church.

You think I'm a racist.::Detective Terrence Washington: You have another explanation?::Tom Ludlow: No I don't.

Fuck you.::Detective Terrence Washington: Man, I would give my right arm to have that shit on tape.::Tom Ludlow: What happened to you, Terrence? We used to be brothers.
Tom Ludlow: [to approaching nurse] I'm waiting for nurse Garcia.::Captain James Biggs: I did the same thing with this girl once. She was a waitress at a jazz bar.
