A surgeon loses his job because he was under the influence of drugs and he lost a patient. One day he is buying drugs when a man is shot. The surgeon saves his life. This gets the attention of a group of criminals. They hire him to be a doctor for their group. He agrees before he realizes that these guys are also killers.
