Margaret, a Manhattan District Attorney, faces a crisis when a young man she met at a hotel bar dies in her room. Panicking, she calls a fixer using a number given to her for emergencies. The fixer arrives to discreetly deal with the situation: the man died after jumping on the bed and crashing into a glass drinks cart. As they work, they are interrupted by another fixer, sent by the hotel's owner, Pam, who had been watching everything via hidden cameras.

Both fixers initially refuse to collaborate, but Margaret reminds her fixer that his actions are now on surveillance footage. Reluctantly, the two men agree to work together to protect Margaret’s career and the hotel’s reputation. Not forgetting theirs too - and both have their ego too! 

To cover the tracks, both are trying their best to come up with an alibi. After setting up an alibi for Margaret and sending her home, they find drugs in the dead man's bag. Pam orders them to return the drugs to avoid further complications, but as they move the body, they realize the man is still alive but overdosing.

The fixers take him to June, an underground medic, but the man escapes, leading them on a chase through the city. They eventually catch him, sober him up, and learn that he got involved with the drugs as a favor for a friend, Diego. To complete the drug deal, they head to a nightclub to retrieve a pager, where they are recognized by Dimitri, a Croatian mobster. Barely escaping, they suspect a drug kingpin named Lagrange is behind the setup.

At Lagrange’s warehouse, chaos ensues as the Albanians ambush the deal. After a deadly shootout, the fixers find the man alive, but instead of killing him, they decide to let him go and warn his father to stay silent.

Will the duo starts a partnership or will they continue to work solo?
