An exhausted and disillusioned suburban ER doctor witnesses a drive-by shooting in which a little boy is seriously injured. While attending to the child's wounds, the doctor shoots and kills a street gang member in order to save the lives of himself and the boy. This one act, seen by some to make him a hero, leads to unexpected complications in his personal and professional life, which forces him to re-evaluate his beliefs about medicine and helping others.
