Ex Special Forces agent Matthew Graham is sat in his house alone, sipping a glass of whiskey. He picks up an old photograph of himself with his former Special Forces unit and gazes at it. Several flashbacks occur as he looks at the photo. These flashbacks are interrupted by the phone ringing. Matt places the photo on the table and picks up the phone. On the other end of the line is his former commanding officer Richard Holder. They have a conversation where Holder explains how they need him to carry out one last mission. Matt explains how he’s retired and doesn’t want to do another mission. Holder describes how it is a matter of national security and the government are willing to offer Matt 10 million pounds to eliminate a certain Russian businessman in an efficient way leaving no evidence.
Eventually Matt accepts the offer and goes to his old colleague Terry’s house to persuade him to help for an equal share of the money. He arrives to find Terry sprawled on his sofa with empty beer cans scattered across the table. He lets himself in and Terry is surprised to see him. The two talk for a while and Terry agrees to help Matt after he offers an equal share of the money.
Matt and Terry are in Matt’s car both wearing aviator sunglasses and blasting out some hip hop music trying to give the impression that they are cool. They spot a woman on the side of the road and whistle. When she turns around she’s actually a transvestite. The two look horrified and drive off.
They arrive at the target’s location and Matt turns to Terry and says, “Right let’s do this, remember the plan keep it smooth and don’t draw any attention.” Terry opens the car door and a cyclist crashes into the door causing a mass disruption.
The scene cuts to the two in the lift of the building. They knock on the hotel room where they think the target is. When they receive no answer they bust their way in only to knock over the man in the wheelchair on the other side. The two look in horror and help the man back up. They tell the man how sorry they are and how they must have got the wrong room. They say have you seen this man and show him a photograph of the target. Then Matt looks closely at the photo and the man in the wheelchair and says, “Wait a minute”. Matt then rips the false moustache of the man in the wheelchair to reveal he is actually the target. The target lunges at Matt and Terry and runs out the door.
Matt and Terry chase the target through the corridor, the target runs down the stairs, Matt follows and Terry takes the lift. The target reaches the bottom, the lift doors open and Terry dives for the target. He just misses him and falls to the ground tripping up Matt in the process. The target exits the building and continues to run down the street. Matt is close behind in pursuit whilst Terry is lagging behind. There is a chase scene and a final confrontation where maskirovki escapes down to Terry's stupidity.
