Liam Neeson’s police lieutenant Frank Drebin Jr. investigates the death of Pamela Anderson’s brother in this crime parody.

In this crime spoof, Frank investigates the death of a software engineer called Simon Davenport. He believes it was a suicide, but his sister Beth (Pamela Anderson) is certain he was murdered.
As Frank carries out his investigation, he realises Simon’s death is connected to a recent bank heist where an important gadget, a P.L.O.T. Device (yes, really), was stolen. The plot thickens!
