The movie begins with a heist executed by Jack (John Edward Lee) and Sam (Michael Jai White) in Cambodia. They rob a bank and manage to flee to Thailand, where they plan to live the rest of their lives in luxury. However, their plans take a U-turn when they learn that the money they stole belongs to a notorious crime lord, Gan Sirankiri (Steven Seagal).

Things get complicated when Jack falls for a local bar girl, Avalon (Pim Bubear), who finds out about his illegal activities. Meanwhile, the crime lord Sirankiri demands his money back and threatens to kill everyone involved in the robbery unless he gets his money. To make matters worse, the duo realizes that they have no way of laundering the stolen money.

Jack and Sam hatch a plan to launder the money by buying a bar in the red-light district and using it as a front to wash the stolen cash. But, their plan backfires when Sirankiri's goons, led by his right-hand man, Sawat (Sahajak Boonthanakit), discover their whereabouts.

The duo finds themselves in a predicament when they are caught between the gang and the police. With the help of Avalon, they try to outsmart the gang and escape with their lives.
