Plot
Max Durocher is a Los Angeles cab driver trying to save his earnings and start his own limousine business. One of the evening's fares is federal prosecutor Annie Farrell, who works for the U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California. They strike up a conversation and Annie gives Max her business card. Max's next fare is Vincent, who tells Max that he is in Los Angeles for one night to complete a real estate deal and engages Max for the night to drive him to a series of meetings. As Max waits at the first stop, a corpse falls onto his car. Vincent reveals himself to be a hitman. He forces Max to hide the body in the trunk and continue driving. LAPD Detective Ray Fanning arrives where Vincent made the kill, revealing the victim to be a police informant.
