Earl (Clint Eastwood) is an 80-year-old man living alone and is facing a very serious financial crisis. His only home is about to be auctioned to offset debts. At this juncture, Earl got a job as a driver, but what Earl was going to transport was not passengers, but drugs. In this way, Earl became a member of the Mexican drug cartel. It has to be admitted that Earl did this job very well, so well that the drug cartel specially equipped him with docking personnel. But just as Earl's financial problems were solved, his abnormal behavior also attracted the attention of Colin (Bradley Cooper), an agent of the US Drug Enforcement Administration. If Earl continues to test the edge of the law, he may go to jail, but if he washes his hands with a golden basin, Earl, who knows too many secrets, may also be killed by drug lords.
