Bounty hunter Jack Walsh is enlisted by bail bondsman Eddie Moscone to find accountant Jonathan Mardukas and bring him to Los Angeles.

Walsh ignores Mosely's order and pockets Mosely's ID, which he uses to pose as an FBI agent during his journey.

Dorfler finds the pair in Pittsburgh and attempts to take Mardukas from Walsh, but Walsh gets advance notice and leaves the train with Mardukas.
