A silent and unidentified mystery is flying and is a threat that needs to be formally detected.

Police are to be avoided, until a body warrants calling in the FBI.

Aware of the dangers both men consider the women they leave at home and whether they will ever return from this mission, or if they will be captured as prisoners.
