But after witnessing a brutal murder take place, Adam takes this ouportunity to become a hero like he's seen in comic books, and maybe win the girl too. As long as he survives, that is. Meanwhile Alfred Benjamin Caine, seriel killer extrodinaire, has been hired to kill him by the mob boss that Adam has been fighting, and as soon as Alfred deals with a sociopathic Irishman, then Adam is next on the list.
