Biography[]
Frank White sends Jimmy and a partner to kill a rival drug dealer. When Jimmy goes to the dealer he tries to trick him into think he's got drug. He acts friendly, until he reveals himself, and, in an attempt to mock the Spanish language, he tells him that what he's got are for bulletholes, "puta."
The confrontations with Officer Thomas are pretty ugly. He calls him a sellout, and throws dollars at his face. Later on he goes to a Chinese restaurant wanting to order fried chicken. When the owner tries to shortchange him by charging him extra, Jimmy has a fit of rage and says, "F*ck you," only to be trapped by Thomas again, who vows to beat him up. The last time we see him is in a nasty fight with Thomas, which ends with his death, for which Frank vows revenge.
Story[]
Frank White, a drug lord, strives to control New York City's criminal underground. Shortly after his release from prison, White and his crew, led by his trigger-happy right-hand man Jimmy Jump, consolidate power by eliminating their rivals in the Colombian drug cartel and Triad. White personally executes a Mafia boss who refuses to cooperate with him.
White's exploits catch the attention of the NYPD's narcotics squad. Detectives Bishop, Gilley and Flanigan confront White but lack any tangible evidence to arrest him. They instead turn their attention to White's henchmen, whom they arrest after a surviving member of the Colombian drug cartel agrees to cooperate with the police.
White's lawyers intervene and free the men from jail. Gilley and Flanigan are frustrated and lead a clandestine operation to take down White and his crew. They storm a night club where White is partying and kill many of his men. White and Jump survive the raid but are chased by Gilley and Flanigan. Jump ambushes and mortally wounds Flanigan. Gilley is unable to resuscitate his partner, and shoots Jump in a fit of rage.
