Synopsis

Jacob is a bank manager with a wife, Christina, and daughter, Sophia. They are struggling financially due to Sophia's aggressive Type I Diabetes. A robber infiltrates Jacob's bank, killing a guard and forcing Jacob to open the vault, using him and another employee as a decoy while he makes his escape. Discussing the robbery with his neighbor, James, a retired cop, they analyze the robbery and other jobs the robber has committed, identifying various signature traits. Using this knowledge, Jacob identifies the robber as Gabriel and that his next target is an armored car. During the robbery, Gabriel kills a guard and injures Maribel, the other guard, who knows Jacob from the bank. Jacob is able to observe where Gabriel hid the money from the armored car and takes it. When he finds the money missing, Gabriel tracks Maribel to the hospital and, at gunpoint, forces her to call Jacob, telling him to come to the hospital. Gabriel then shoots Maribel before making his way to Jacob's house, where he kidnaps Christina and Sophia. With James' help, Jacob is able to coordinate the drop-off of the money and the rescue of his family. Gabriel kills several police officers in a shootout before finally being killed by James. Six months later, Jacob has joined the police force as a rookie, following in the footsteps of his father.
