Check out what happened in Life of Crime!
The film commences with a poignant scene of Louis, (character name not provided) being relieved of 27 dollars by a formidable bully. His trusted friend Ordell comes to his aid, exacting a measure of revenge by running down the perpetrator with his vehicle. This initial act sets the tone for the duo's future endeavors, as they concoct an elaborate scheme to amass wealth through extortion. Their target is Frank Dawson, a prominent real estate mogul, whom they intend to extort by kidnapping his wife Mickey and demanding a $1 million ransom. The catalyst for this plan lies in their possession of compromising information regarding Frank's clandestine bank account in the Bahamas and his questionable business dealings there.
As fate would have it, Mickey (character name not provided) takes her young son Bo to the country club for a game of tennis. Louis coincidentally crosses paths with her in a corridor, sparking a brief but memorable encounter. Meanwhile, Marshall Taylor, a married man with a penchant for extramarital affairs, finds himself infatuated with Mickey, although she remains uninterested.
With Frank and his son both scheduled to be away for a week, Ordell and Louis seize the opportunity to put their plan into action. Under the guise of masks, they burst into Mickey's kitchen, catching her off guard. A glass shatters, and Mickey sustains a minor injury as a result. The kidnapping unfolds without incident until Marshall arrives at the scene, throwing the perpetrators into disarray. They respond by striking him on the head and imprisoning him in a closet before making off with their stunned captive.
Once safely ensconced at Richard's (character name not provided), a self-proclaimed admirer of Nazi ideology, Mickey finds herself confined to a bedroom, forced to don a blindfold to prevent her from discerning the identities of her captors as they tend to her needs. Louis takes it upon himself to professionally bandage Mickey's injured foot, demonstrating a level of care and compassion that belies their nefarious intentions.
As Frank (actor name) luxuriates with his mistress Melanie in their Bahamas retreat, a sinister plot unfolds. Ordell's menacing call pierces the tranquil atmosphere, transporting Frank to the realm of marital woes. His wife's disembodied voice taunts him, detailing the kidnapping and the $1 million ransom demand. Frank's stoic reaction belies a calculating mind, already planning to sever ties with his wife by marrying Melanie. The divorce papers, carelessly sent to an empty home, serve as a reminder of his calculated indifference towards his wife's fate.
Meanwhile, at Richard's (actor name) residence, a sense of unease settles over the occupants. A frantic search ensues for Marshall, who has gone AWOL from the closet. Louis shares concerns with Mickey regarding the ransom, Frank's hidden wealth, and the real estate venture. The conversation takes an unexpected turn when Mickey recognizes Louis as a familiar face from their shared country club experiences.
As the situation spirals out of control, Mickey finds himself privy to Ordell and Louis's clandestine discussion, eavesdropping through vents and doors as they deliberate on their next move. In Freeport, Marshall unwittingly stumbles upon Richard, who misidentifies him as a law enforcement officer. A tense confrontation erupts, culminating in Richard opening fire after Marshall's hasty departure.
The kidnapping plot thickens when Ordell and Cedric pay Melanie a visit at the pool while Frank is indisposed. Melanie, aware of her husband's impending divorce, proposes an alternative: a $100,000 ransom, potentially escalating to more if Mickey meets his demise. The cunning couple forges an unholy alliance, with Ordell making a call to Richard's residence.
The game's afoot as Ordell reveals his new plan to Richard, orchestrating a scheme that will bring Mickey back to Melanie's doorstep, under the guise of a reunion. Richard is instructed to eliminate Melanie once Louis is out of the picture, leaving him oblivious to the sinister intentions.
As Louis slips away to "acquire" a sleek ride at the valet station, Richard attempts to prey upon Mickey, but Louis intervenes just in time, foiling the would-be assault. With Mickey safely by his side, he whisks her away to a waiting vehicle, leaving Richard to face the consequences of his actions with the authorities. Their impromptu escape route takes them towards Mickey's residence, only for her to decline returning home, instead opting to accompany Louis to his place. The next morning finds Mickey back at her doorstep, where she's met with the harsh reality of divorce papers waiting in the wings. Seeking solace and a respite from her mundane life, she pays a visit to old colleagues before eventually returning home once more. However, Frank's unexpected arrival sets off a chain reaction, prompting Mickey to confront him about the ransom demands, the impending divorce, and the mysterious $1 million. Frank vehemently denies any wrongdoing, claiming he was aware the kidnappers were bluffing and had subsequently backed out. Frustrated by the onslaught of lies, Mickey seeks refuge with Louis once more. Their subsequent meeting with Ordell reveals a shocking truth: Melanie is in his custody. As Melanie steps out for a brief moment, Mickey, Louis, and Ordell concoct a plan that sees all three donning masks, preparing to kidnap Melanie and demand a ransom from Frank, bringing their complex web of deceit full circle.
