One week prior, Detective Dog and Mr. Pope interrogate a couple about a missing fortune. The interrogation turns fatal when Dog resorts to lethal force, killing both individuals after receiving the information he sought.

Luke Vaughn, a casino employee, struggles to manage mounting medical bills for his sick daughter. He visits his daughter in the hospital, where he promises her doctor that he will secure enough money for her operation by the upcoming Friday.

Desperation drives Vaughn to devise a robbery plan with his co-worker, Cox. As they discuss the casino's wealth, Vaughn's determination to save his daughter deepens, laying the groundwork for their criminal intentions.

In a critical meeting with Mr. Pope, Vaughn pleads for a loan of $300,000 to help his daughter. However, his request is met with indifference, leading to his dismissal from the casino, compounding his desperation.

In a fateful decision, Vaughn and Cox execute the robbery that very night. The situation escalates quickly when an employee discovers them, triggering a violent chain of events that results in the employee's death.

With their getaway plan unraveling, the thieves hijack bus #657 to escape police pursuit. Unbeknownst to them, Officer Kris Bauhaus is still tracking them closely, setting the stage for a high-stakes chase.

As the bus speeds through the city, Officer Kris hears gunfire and engages in a tense chase. The atmosphere intensifies when the identities of the thieves are revealed, leading to a standoff with armed police.

Vaughn attempts to negotiate with Kris as they approach a police blockade. He writes down hostages' phone numbers on the bus window, using their safety as leverage to clear the roadblocks.

With a wounded accomplice on the verge of death, tensions on the bus escalate. Vaughn calls on a student with veterinary skills for help, desperate to save his fellow thief and maintain control over the situation.

Realizing they wouldn't make it to their destination without refueling, the gang sets up a plan to call for a fuel tanker. Officer Kris facilitates the process under constant surveillance from Detective Marconi.

Amid mounting chaos, Vaughn makes a pivotal choice to release two hostages, indicating his desire to see his daughter survive. This decision fractures the group's dynamics and heightens the emergency inside the bus.

As the situation deteriorates, Vaughn ultimately confronts Cox, who has asserted himself through intimidation. The confrontation culminates in a shocking moment where Vaughn shoots Cox to regain control.

In a clever twist of fate, Vaughn orchestrates an escape plan, releasing the remaining hostages under cover of chaos. As he disappears into the night, his fate remains uncertain while he plots his next move against Jono, who awaits a tragic end.
