Michael(Freddie Prinze Jr), Carmine(Scott Caan) and Bobby(Jerry Ferrara)witness power through brutality first hand up close and personal. Michael actually wants to leave the streets and scam his way through law school.

Fond memories of the past are in jeopardy as the harsh wise guy ruled streets personally touch the boyhood friend's lives.
