Plot summary
Queen, a criminal defense attorney, agrees to a first date with Slim, a Tinder match, mostly to avoid spending the night alone. Slim drives her home afterward. A traffic stop by Officer Reed turns hostile: Reed orders Slim out of the car, searches it, and draws his gun when Slim asks him to hurry. Queen steps out and tries to record the scene on her phone, and Reed fires, grazing her leg. In the struggle that follows, Slim gets hold of the officer's gun and shoots him dead. Shocked, Queen tells Slim they have to run rather than face prison, and the two throw away their phones and drive off.
