LOGLINE

Beloved fast-food franchisee Joe “Bossman” Martin invents a drug-distribution system hidden inside his five drive-thrus to save his failing restaurants and 170 employees. When the organization backing him decides the system is worth more without Joe alive, he has to destroy the criminal highway he created before his family becomes its final delivery.

THE STORY

Joe Martin knows restaurants, people and logistics. With five locations collapsing under debt, he and a friend realize the same drive-thru system that moves thousands of anonymous customers through five counties can move something else just as invisibly. RED. YELLOW. BLUE. PURPLE. The money works. Payroll clears. Equipment gets fixed. Employees get raises. Joe hasn't merely saved the company—he's accidentally built an extraordinarily efficient criminal network.

Then WHITE arrives. The organization wants expansion, Joe's managers begin seeing what is happening, his family is exposed, and Joe learns the people above him intend to kill him and inherit the machine. His answer is pure Bossman: transfer the restaurants to the employees, turn what he knows over to law enforcement, get his family out—and survive one massive holiday parade where five counties, five crews and five restaurants finally collide.
