Cop John Trace (Stephen Baldwin) walks a beat while his third on-the-job shooting is being investigated. He spots a drug dealer selling and gives chase. When the dealer reaches into his pocket John assumes he is going for a gun and shoots him dead. A quick patdown reveals he was only trying to dispose of the drugs. This is not a good situation for John. Lieutenant Lain Devon (Chazz Palminteri) and Sergeant Dan Creedy (Gary Dourdan), plainclothes detectives are the first to investigate the scene along side Bobby (Steven Flynn). Bobby manages to slip a gun into the hand of the dealer as the paramedics cart him away. At the station Devon takes John aside and explains a way out of his predicament. He shows him the gun and tells him if he transfers to a special elite unit named Select Unit Armed Response (SCAR) his fourth investigation will go away. The SCAR squad has carte blanche, and even the district attorney turns a blind eye to their tactics to take violent criminals off the street. John is the perfect character as his icy demeanour allows him to deal with many situations that keep other cops up at night.
