Plot Outline:

A mild-mannered man becomes a local hero through an act of violence, which sets off repercussions that will shake his family to its very core.
The film starts with one of two robbers going into a hotel office, which has several murdered people laying on the floor. He then shoots and kills a terrified little girl to leave no witnesses behind. Tom Stall is a local restaurant owner in the small town of Millbrook, Indiana who lives peacefully with his lawyer wife Edie, his teenage son Jack and younger daughter Sarah. They live a happy life together even though they face tough obstacles at times. One night the robbers come into Millbrook and stop and Tom's restaurant. The older robber asks for some coffee but Tom says that they are closed. The younger robber holds a female employee down. When Tom says they don't carry too much money, the robber takes out his pistol. He shouts at a terrified teenage girl to silence her screaming and tells the younger robber to rape the employee. Tom suddenly jolts, smashing a coffee jar into the older robber's face slightly injuring him and then jumping over the counter to get his gun. When the younger robber misses a shot fired at a employee of Tom's, Tom shoots the man through the front door of the restaurant. The older robber takes out a knife attached to his leg and stabs him in the foot. Tom then shoots the older one in the head blowing his jaw off but not killing him. Tom is completely startled by his action as so are the people around him.

After Tom goes to the hospital and the story receives national attention, several T.V. reporters arrive in town. When Tom comes out of the hospital, he notices a car parked behind a T.V. van. It later leaves. The next day two men come to the restaurant in rush hour. The one in glasses takes off his glasses exposing his scar. His name is Carl Fogarty and he slyly charges that Tom is really someone named Joey Cusack from Philadelphia. Tom denies the allegation, and claims he has never been to Philadelphia. Edie later calls a sheriff named Sam to get information on Fogarty. He suprises them by telling them that Fogarty is a top ranking boss in the Irish Mob in Philadelphia who have commited several acts of horrendous crimes. Meanwhile Fogarty is persistent, however his constant presence and threatening behavior menaces the whole Stall family. One day Edie loses Sarah in the shopping mall but finds her at a toy store. Fogarty says that he's been watching over her and Edie tells him to stay away from her family. He then mocks her by daring her to ask Tom why he is so good at killing people.

Jack, who has always avoided fighting when bullied at school, now retaliates against his tormentors who are trying to get at him by making fun of his father by beating them up severely. He kicks one of the bullies in the crotch and punches and kicks the other several times while screaming apparently sending the bully to the hospital. He and Tom have an argument and Tom slaps him after he mocks his father saying that solving problems in the family is by shooting people. He then runs away. Tom is even more dissapointed to hear that Edie had an encounter with Fogarty. Suddenly they notice Fogarty's car driving up their lane. Tom walks outside with Edie and the family shotgun on the front porch. Fogarty mocks him about him being Tom Stall and calls him Joey for most of the time while asking him to come with them. When Tom refuses, Fogarty reveals that he has kidnapped Jack. Edie runs over for Jack but Tom stops her and one of Fogarty's men prevent Jack from escaping. Tom tells a horrified Edie to go up to their younger daughter Sarah for protection. Fogarty asks Tom again to come with them to Philadelphia to meet some people.

Tom refuses even after they let Jack go. When one of Fogarty's men try to forcefully subdue him with a gun, Tom punches his nose repeatedly shattering it after breaking his arm and snatches the pistol from his hand and shoots one of the henchmen until he is struck in the shoulder by a shot from Fogarty. When Fogarty approaches him with his pistol aimed at him, Tom tells Fogarty "I should have killed you back in Philly," finally admitting that he is Joey Cusack. When Fogarty is about to kill him, Jack intervenes by shooting Fogarty in the back with the family's double-barreled shotgun instantly killing him. His wife begins to suspect the truth, and questions him while visiting him in the hospital. He admits everything about him being the mob assassin Joey Cusack shocking her and causing her to throw up in the room's bathroom. His family becomes upset and angry that he has lied to them for so many years. When the local sheriff Sam starts to believe the mobsters' claim of Tom's criminal past, Edie defends Tom saying that the sheriff should stop imagining things. After the sheriff leaves, Edie cries on Tom but later gets up. As Tom tries to talk to her, she slaps him. This angers Tom and he forcefully subdues her onto the stairs even after she slaps him again. Extremely aroused by what he did, Edie grabs him by his ears and passionately kisses him. They have a very rough sexual intercourse right on the stairs. This brings out a dark side of Edie which she never experienced before. After the very hard and passionate sex, Edie leaves a tired out Tom on the stairs.

Some days later, Richard "Richie" Cusack, Tom's brother and a Philadelphia crime boss, telephones Tom and demands that "Joey" visit him. Tom fears that his brother will not forgive him for having jeopardized Richie's mob career by maiming Fogarty, however, he knows that his family will remain at risk if he does not respond back. He drives all the way to Philadelphia to meet his brother at a secluded estate. Richie describes his terribly mixed feelings at seeing his runaway brother again after so long. They both talk about their past and how Tom used barbed wire to blind Fogarty in one eye. Tom says that he's come here to make peace. Richie then signals one of his men to garrote him. Tom realizes the situation and puts his hand at his throat. He then uses his dangerous abilities to kill more of Richie's men. Richie angrily shoots one of his wounded men dead. He and another henchman search for Tom but Tom kills the henchman and points a gun at Richie. Richie tries to convince his brother about him being one of his own but Tom shoots him the forehead instantly killing him. He then goes out to the man made pond on the estate and cleans himself up from the blood.

Tom then drives home to his family, who are all sitting down to dinner. He receives a silent welcome in a tense atmosphere, where only his daughter can initially make eye-contact with him, although they end up preparing his place at the table.
