Die Hart is an action-comedy web television series that follows the journey of an aspiring actor Kevin Hart, as he tries to break out of his comedic stereotype and become an action star. The show stars Kevin Hart as himself alongside John Travolta as Ron Wilcox, Kevin's mentor, and Nathalie Emmanuel as Jordan King, a skilled CIA agent assigned to train Kevin for his new role.

Season 1 episode 1 of Die Hart is titled "The Recruit". The episode opens with Kevin Hart attending an audition for a role in an action movie. Kevin, who is usually known for his comedic roles, is ready to step out of his comfort zone and take on a more serious role in the movie industry. However, the casting director is unimpressed with Kevin's acting skills and tells him that he is not believable enough as an action star. Disheartened, Kevin returns home, still determined to achieve his goal of becoming an action star.

The next day, Kevin receives a mysterious package containing a letter from Ron Wilcox, one of the most famous action stars in Hollywood. The letter invites Kevin to participate in an exclusive training program that will prepare him for his breakthrough role as an action star. Kevin jumps at the opportunity and rushes to Ron's luxurious mansion, where he meets Ron's assistant, Jordan King.

Jordan is everything Kevin is not - physically fit, tough, and determined. She informs Kevin that the training program is designed to weed out any weak links and turn them into successful action stars. Kevin, who has never participated in any intense fitness routine, finds it hard to keep up with the rigorous training regimen but Jordan pushes him to keep going.

Throughout the episode, Kevin struggles with the intense training, which includes running, jumping, and hand-to-hand combat. He also finds it hard to fit in with the other recruits who are more physically gifted than he is.

However, Kevin's determination to succeed pays off when he realizes that his sense of humor is actually a useful tool in the training program. By making his fellow recruits laugh, he is able to foster a sense of camaraderie and teamwork that was previously absent. Kevin also becomes more confident in his physical abilities and surprises Jordan with his resilience and newfound strength.

As the training program progresses, tensions rise between the recruits, and a few of them are eventually eliminated. Kevin also struggles to earn the respect of his fellow recruit, Zane, who believes that Kevin is not serious about his training.

The episode ends with Ron Wilcox visiting the recruits and informing them that they will be sent on a real mission to test their skills. Kevin, who has finally earned the respect of his fellow recruits, is determined to prove to Ron and Jordan that he has what it takes to be a legitimate action star.

Overall, "The Recruit" sets the stage for what promises to be an intense and exciting journey for Kevin Hart as he attempts to become an action star. The episode combines humor with action, and the chemistry between the cast is palpable.
