A sweep of the Ramrod Hotel has Switek passing out search warrants and the team helping rookies roust whores and their johns. One of their busts is Vic Romano, (Bill Paxton) another vice cop; Vic is with "girlfriend," Carla, the hooker. Too bad Carla was holding: one full gram of pure pharmaceutical strength cocaine. The guys need to get the killer coke off the street, so they go after the mule, her pimp, Silk (Wesley Snipes) to get to the source.
