Keith Troy, an unscrupulous terrorist, assassinated jean arthur, a senior FBI agent, but killed his only son by mistake, making jean arthur swear to put Keith Troy in prison himself. Under the tip-off of an informant, jean arthur finally had a chance to arrest him personally and bring Keith Troy and his brother to justice before they escaped by plane. After the gunfight, Keith Troy was in a coma because of his injuries.
Arthur thought it was all over, but he learned from Keith's younger brother that before he was arrested, Keith Troy had placed a powerful gas bomb in a crowded public place. No matter how pressed by the police, Keith's younger brother would rather die than tell the location of the bomb. At the end of his tether, Arthur's officer proposed to exchange the looks of Arthur and Keith Troy through high-tech plastic surgery, and then let Arthur pretend to be Keith Troy and go to prison, so that Keith's younger brother thought that his brother was resurrected and told the location of the bomb within the specified time.
This "face-changing" plan is the top secret of the FBI. Only the attending doctor and three FBI officers knew about it. Everything went well at first, and the fake Keith Troy got into prison. But unexpectedly, the unconscious Keith Troy woke up. Cunning, he decided to play along. The first step is to kill the doctors involved in this task and the informed FBI agents. ......
