Detective Rage goes downstairs before going home. Sergeant Jones is working the graveyard shift and will not be of much use until after 18:00. They arrange to have supper together and then he can go to work. In the parking lot of the diner they decide to go to the movie house and eat there. Plans change again and they go to Rage's home to watch a VCR movie.
After the movie ends and as Jones is leaving they see and hear two car in a running gun batter on a major street close by. They both choose to pursue the cars in separate vehicles. Jones is first onto the road with lights flashing but is blocks behind the last car when he gets on the main road. Rage's jeep is another six blocks behind Jones' squad car. The cars continue to exchange gun fire as the race down the somewhat busy street.
The last car is losing the race because it is old and their gun fire has not slowed the fleeing car. The last car starts to weave between their two lanes. Rage will take the last slower car and force it to stop. Jones will speed ahead and try to apprehend the fleeing car. Or at least slow them down. The old car was finally forced off the road and then they shot at her. Half of a clip from her Colt and they give up.
Jones is catching the fleeing car when they manage to bring down a cross lanes traffic sign. It blocks the road and the chase ends.
The next day in Chief of Police Anderson's office is Inspector Strong and the new Chief of the Robbery section, Wilma Jones. She is there because it appears the car chase and shootings are tied up in a string of Pawn shops holdups. Inspector Strong is there because Detective Rage forced over the old car but it had a body in the back seat that had been shot.
Wilma asks for the Inspector's help and he assigns Detective Rage to work with robbery.
It will get confusing when the old car may have been robbing Pawn shops and the fleeing car was a copycat robber of Pawn shops. Just who is on first will take a lot of work and luck to figure out.
How will Rage ever find the fleeing car, more dead bodies, and college girls to solve her 100th homicide case?
