Kad Persijas līča kara laikā amerikāņu vienība nonāk aplenkumā, seržants Reimonds Šovs, parādot pašaizliedzību un varonību, izglābj karavīrus un viņu komandieri Benetu Marko no drošas nāves. Izmantojot šo notikumu politiskos nolūkos, Šovs ar savas mātes, senatores palīdzību izvirza savu kandidatūru viceprezidenta amatam, kamēr Marko dienām un naktīm vajā biedējoši murgi par to kas bija…, vai arī kas nebija īstenībā noticis.

Further events show that the President, who sent his closest aides and friends to investigate, easily and almost indifferently accepts the news of their deaths, because he is only interested in his own person.
