IGNACIO PIUS DOWNS, better known as IGG, is down on his luck. Once a busy private eye, he’s now nearly broke. After hooking up with the ex-wife of an abusive homicide detective, JAKE GARCIA, the cop smeared Igg’s name and business. Now Igg’s now living in a rundown Airbnb in Koreatown in Los Angeles, with an old woman and her demonic dog, OSCAR, who hates Igg. The woman dies, leaving the house to the dog. If Igg wants a place to live, he has to be nice to the dog, whom he renames GARBAGE. It’s a strained relationship, at best. A local sixteen-year-old girl, FRANKIE, breaks into Igg’s house. Frankie needs help. Her uncle, CARLOS, has disappeared, and Frankie needs Igg to find him. Igg notices Frankie has a gang tattoo, and he asks her why she doesn’t ask her gang to find Carlos. She on parole and can’t associate with any of her former peeps. Igg tries to throw her out. But Frankie is one tough kid. She threatens to accuse Igg with the rape of a minor if he doesn’t help her. One damaged soul recognizes another, and Igg agrees to help her. Igg and Frankie find Carlos in a cheap hotel, dead of sliced wrists. On the bed next to the body is a knife with a crucifix on the handle. The hotel clerk says Carlos had one visitor, a priest. But Igg isn’t so sure it is suicide. He photographs the knife, and Igg and Frankie take off to tell Carlos’ former foster kid, G, about his foster dad’s death. G recognizes the knife as belonging to a pusher, SALO, who likes to dress like a priest. Igg and G pay a visit to Salo. The guy’s not much help, because he’s also dead. Before Jake can investigate further, the cops show up. Not just any cops, it’s Jake. G gets away, but Igg is arrested for Salo’s murder. Jake wants to hold Igg, but he has no evidence. Velma throws up and threatens to get Internal Affairs involved if Jake doesn’t release Igg. The bodies mount up as Igg investigates clue after clue. All clues point to a “rogue cop” as the murderer. It’s clear to Igg that Jake is the killer. Or is he?
