Quando Lloyd McNeil, poliziotto con vent'anni di servizio alle spalle, scopre di avere pochi mesi di vita davanti, si rende conto che i suoi risparmi non sono sufficienti per garantire un buon futuro a Bishop, suo figlio adolescente. Ma se morisse in servizio, Bishop potrebbe riscattare una lauta assicurazione. Così a Lloyd, che è sempre stato un poliziotto corretto ma pigro, figlio di un capo del Dipartimento dal temutissimo pugno di ferro, balena l'idea di cercare volontariamente le situazioni più pericolose, facendo di tutto per trovare una fine \"eroica\" e redditizia per il figlio. Ironia della sorte, non solo ogni suo tentativo di morire in servizio fallisce, ma lo rende sempre più popolare, trasformandolo in un improbabile eroe locale. Ma il tempo sta per scadere e Lloyd lo userà tutto per continuare a insegnare a Bishop come diventare una brava persona. E come imparare a dire addio.
