Three generations of female assassins come together after a hit goes horribly wrong. What follows is a journey of salvation through the Korean mob, a group of secret puppet masters, small time goons, vicious kidnappes, an estranged mother and... a little girl whose life is on the line.
A hitman must interrupt her last-chance mission to rescue a vulnerable young girl, putting both her own and her estranged mother’s lives in jeopardy.
An assassin chooses the life of a young girl over the desires of her firm. By doing this she and her family are hunted down by her former firm as well as a Korean mob whom she harmed in the past.
A career hitwoman finds herself putting her life, her job, and her mother at risk after choosing to protect the daughter of a man she killed while on a mission instead of finishing the assignment.

Spans about a day. One scene about 15 years before.
Takes place in and around an unspecified city. Major set pieces occur at a diner, a library, a clinic, a bowling alley, outside a mall, and a school bus. Additional locations include a house, a dark room, a closed Blockbuster, a funeral home, a drive-in cinema, a villa, an apartment, an Italian restaurant, a men's locker room, a sunflower field, and a cabin in the woods.
EVA (11) meets her mother, SCARLET (20’s) in a 50’s style diner. Scarlet tells Eva that she will be going away for a while. After some conversation they are promptly attacked by Russian thugs.

Years later, Eva, now the same age as her mother was in the first scene, meets NATHAN (40’s) who tells Eva that she needs to go and retrieve a briefcase that The Firm lost.

Eva arrives at a library, which is actually the firm’s weapons storage. She is greeted and supplied by FLORENCE (50’s) , ANNA MAY (50’s) and MADELINE (50’s).

Eva retrieves the briefcase from a man named DAVID. After injuring him, she is told that she must bring the briefcase to a mysterious man, or his daughter will be killed.

Eva meets the creepy voiced man and his goons at an abandoned Blockbuster and trades the briefcase for David’s daughter, EMILY (11?).

Nathan tells the goons YANKEE, SHOCKER and CROW that Eva is out of the firm and to bring her to him by any means necessary.

Eva returns to the doctors office where she brought the injured David, who dies. The doctor RICKY (40’s) and the goons YANKEE, SHOCKER and CROW paralyze Eva.
