Plot

An old gangster, with a hard drive containing records of who he paid off, is targeted by a competition between dirty cops, internal affairs, etc. The dirty cops hire a thug to get into the safe (in the back of a diner) at midnight. But he brings his friends and goes too early for the time-release lock. Another crooked cop shows up (for uncertain reasons). The shooting ensues and during hostage negotiations the thug tries to put the blame onto an ex-con who just got out of jail, so that no one notices the real target is the hard drive.

Cast

gollark: Would you even have a government without it being able to tax?
gollark: Yes, that seems about right.
gollark: So true. Especially with the modern interweb. A bunch of "desktop apps" are just webapps shipping with an entire copy of Chromium for no good reason, and websites download several megabytes of fonts, images and scripts for something like 10kB of content.
gollark: Okay, no, definitely not a good one.
gollark: PHP is definitely a programming language. Perhaps not a *good* one, but it is.
