Now all they have to do is to stay within about 30 yards of each other which soon proves to be quite difficult-especially since a large bounty has been placed upon them. So being the electrical genius that he is, Tony manages to bypass the prison's electrical perimeter by linking his collar with hers which enables them to escape together.

Needless to say, in order to do that Tony has to gain her trust and to do that he decides to help her break out with him from the state-of-the-art facility which has replaced bars with explosive collars that detonate if a person leaves the perimeter of the prison. Once that is accomplished he has to somehow acquire the large sum of money Allie stole and bring it back to him.

However, before being sentenced he is told by Jack Claremont that he will arrange his release provided he locates a certain female named 'Allie Thompson' (Nia Peeples) who is an inmate at the same prison that he will be incarcerated in. Unfortunately, he is caught and subsequently sent to prison-not for breaking and entering-but on the trumped up charge of murder. His objective is to gather some information which might prove valuable for him later on. This film takes place in the not-so-distant future with a high-tech burglar named 'Tony Archer' (Esai Morales) attempting to break into the office of a wealthy executive named 'Jack Claremont' (Stephen McHattie).
