Matt, a programmer who creates home arcade games, unexpectedly meets Simon, the man who rescued him from a burning car years earlier. Now down on his luck and living as a drifter, Simon is taken in by grateful Matt, who offers him a place to stay and a mail‑room job at his company. Unbeknownst to Matt, the encounter was not random—Simon harbors a long‑held grudge dating back to the night he saved Matt’s life and intends to settle the score.
