When both the CIA and the underworld mistake regular guy Stuart Dempsey (Danny Nucci) for a notorious killer-for-hire named Jaguar, Dempsey doesn't know whom he can turn to or trust. Certain only of his boss, Max Kaufman (David Carradine), Dempsey is wary of everyone else -- especially his new love (Victoria Sanches). Pursued by the CIA, Dempsey sets out to prove his identity and outwit his pursuers.
