Plot

In Boston, two strangers from Quincy — divorced Marine veteran Rory and alcoholic ex-con Cobby Murphy — are recruited for a robbery. Rory struggles to explain his plans to his therapist, Dr. Rivera, while Cobby's bartender Mr. Kelly warns him not to return to his criminal ways. The night of the city's mayoral election, corrupt incumbent Joseph Miccelli has organized a celebration at the Wharf, where he will be accepting massive amounts of cash bribes. Mobsters Besegai and Dechico enlist their underling Scalvo, Rory, and Cobby to steal the money before it is picked up by armored car; Rory is adamant that he receive a share of exactly $32,480.
