Frank Vega, a Vietnam War veteran, has faced many challenges in his life. Upon returning from the war, he discovers that his girlfriend has moved on and started a family with someone else. Struggling to find work, Frank turns to selling hot dogs until his customers are taken away by a rival hot dog vendor. Feeling lost, he unexpectedly gains fame after defending himself against two abusive skinheads on a bus, earning him the nickname “Bad Ass.” His face starts appearing on T-shirts and graffiti, and he even gets invited to talk shows and offered ride-alongs by the police.
Frank’s life takes a tragic turn when his mother, Juanita, passes away, leaving him her house and dog. His best friend and fellow veteran, Klondike Washington, moves in with him and gives Frank a USB flash drive intended for Juanita’s safety deposit box. However, Klondike is brutally murdered in a dark alley by two thugs, leaving Frank heartbroken.
Disappointed by the lack of progress in the police investigation into Klondike’s murder, Frank decides to take matters into his own hands. He uncovers a crucial clue at the crime scene – a spent cartridge casing and a pendant with a woman’s photo. Following the lead, he traces the pendant to a pawn shop where he learns it belongs to a man named Terence. Returning the pendant to Terence’s wife, Frank discovers that Terence is playing basketball with friends. With the help of Renaldo, Frank sets out to find Terence and unravel the mystery behind Klondike’s death.

In a climactic showdown, Frank confronts the drug lord and emerges victorious, leading to the exposure of Mayor Williams’ involvement in the scandal.
