Ex-mobster Keaton (Abe Vigoda), now living in a retirement home, narrowly misses being the target of a mob hit. Police officers Jake Barber (Don Rickles), who has known Keaton for a long time, and violent Mike Gable (Lee Majors), who takes an immediate disliking to the aging gangster, are called in to investigate a string of murders targeting senior citizens and to protect Keaton.
