When an out of work teacher is given a deadline by a loan shark, he contracts a hit-man on himself so his family can collect on his life insurance. However after he befriends the hit-man they decide to fake his death instead.
What has the board member done that he needs to be " brought to justice"? Frame the CEO? But the evidence that would bring that to light would also bring to light the CEO's own crime of embezzlement, wouldn't it? Doesn't that bring the CEO back to square one of the problem she's trying to solve?
