Do or Die

In Hawaii, Donna Hamilton [Dona Speir] and Nicole Justin [Roberta Vasquez], two L.E.T.H.A.L. agents, find themselves suddenly targeted by Kane, [Pat Morita], a ruthless underworld businessman who has weaponized a brutal game: six teams of professional assassins are sent to hunt them down. From his Honolulu headquarters, Kane coordinates the operation with his enigmatic mistress Silk [Carolyn Liu], and keeps a vigilant eye on Hamilton’s every move through a hidden tracking device embedded in her wristwatch. The tension is relentless as the first signals of danger ripple through their routines, turning a routine mission into a high-stakes cat-and-mouse chase.

The opening assault arrives in a dramatic fashion when a helicopter opens fire on Hamilton and Justin’s Jeep on the way to the airport. Nicole counters with a surprising weapon—an improvised missile-firing walking stick—that brings the helicopter down. With their pursuers momentarily thwarted, the pair commandeer a small plane, slip into disguises, and head for Las Vegas, hoping to throw Kane’s network off their trail. Back in the United States, Lucas [William Bumiller], a keen organizer based out of Honolulu, calls in the men he has recruited to shut Kane down: Capt. Bruce Christian [Bruce Penhall] and Col. Richard Estevez [Erik Estrada]. Their goal is to intercept Kane’s plan before it fully locks in, and to keep the net from closing around Hamilton and Justin.

A contact awaits them at an RC air show outside Las Vegas, directing them to a waiting airplane at Henderson Airport and supplying them with a large-scale remote-controlled Huey helicopter. The mission is far from simple, as Kane’s second team tracks the fugitives and opens fire during a tense off-road desert chase. Christian and Estevez join the pursuit in a dune buggy, while Estevez fires a rocket launcher at the assassins’ vehicle, helping Hamilton and Justin reach safety. The chase culminates in a tense meeting at the airport before the group escapes again, trusting in the cover of flight.

Meanwhile, Kane’s grip tightens as the second team’s failure reverberates through his operation. Lucas relocates the fugitives to a secure lake house, where they plot the next move. They are joined by Edy Stark [Cynthia Brimhall], Lucas’s country-music singing girlfriend, and two more agents-to-be, Shane Abeline [Michael J. Shane] and rookie Atlanta Lee [Pandora Peaks], who prepare for their part in the continuing showdown. A sultry performance in the lodge momentarily softens the tension, but danger remains ever-present as Kane’s hired hands tighten the noose around them.

At Big Pines Lodge, the third team lies in wait, masquerading as chefs. The tension escalates when poison is slipped to a cat—one of the many subtle threats that keep the agents on edge. The animal’s death signals a broader risk, and the hunt spills into the woods as the pursuit intensifies. Lucas, Edy, Shane, and Atlanta arrive to help, and the group confronts the assassins in a furious chase that ends with a dramatic explosion: a grenade dropped from the seaplane destroys the assassins’ boat, and the four captors are captured alive.

Back at Kane’s headquarters, a grim realization settles in as Silk conveys Kane’s grander scheme to manipulate the American stock market. The news of the third team’s failure arrives just as the tension inside the group grows, leading Lucas to suspect a mole within their ranks. The investigators decide to relocate to a secure lake house, and Estevez’s tension with Hamilton momentarily flares before cooling into a wary alliance.

The next morning, two dirt bikers on the dock raise the stakes again. One gunman tries to take out Hamilton but misses, and the fourth team presses the chase as Christian and Estevez pursue on bikes. The first assassin crashes, and Estevez finishes the second with a grenade disguised as a baseball—another brutal reminder of the ruthlessness behind Kane’s plot. With rifles on the way, Lucas, Edy, Shane, and Atlanta prepare to leave early the next day by boat to collect additional weapons, lending Hamilton a watch for the exchange.

A new twist comes as the fifth team appears on jet skis, confident they’ve tracked Hamilton and Justin. Lucas and Edy respond with accurate fire, using the newly acquired rifles to wipe out the threat. The action then shifts again as Lucas heads to Dallas, while Estevez accuses Atlanta of being a mole—an accusation that casts doubt over the team’s cohesion. Hamilton discovers Kane’s tracking device has been revealing their every move, a chilling reminder that the game is far from over.

Kane issues a final challenge: a hand-to-hand confrontation between Hamilton, Justin, and the last, elusive team. Lucas answers the call, but the confrontation unfolds with a twist: two ninjas ambush the women in the woods, forcing them to run. They’re cornered in an outhouse, but the plan collapses when it’s revealed to be a pair of dummies with wigs and a taped voice recording. Estevez, controlling the remote helicopter, sends missiles toward the outhouse, destroying the decoys and sealing the rivals’ fate. Kane watches as the computer on his end reveals that his game has been lost.

In the aftermath, the remaining players celebrate a hard-won victory with new insight into Kane’s operation. Estevez and Lucas reveal how L.E.T.H.A.L. can now track Kane with Silk serving as their informant, and they decide to monitor Kane’s movements rather than arrest him outright, ensuring the chase will continue in the future. The result is a cautious triumph that leaves the door open for ongoing interference with Kane’s schemes, an uneasy but hopeful note for the agents who survived the ordeal.
