The film starts with Brennan shooting an unarmed man, then moves on to him almost emasculating a transvestite prostitute, stabbing another man in his back, strangling another man and causing a boat to explode to kill other witnesses to his first murder at the start of the movie. Brennan is killed himself in a shootout in a precinct station when he is confesses to Reilly the truth about Reilly's father and shoots other personnel when they try to arrest him. Reilly trashes his office, throwing a large metal object (ashtray) through a door's window in anger over what he found out about his father and Quinn.
