Synopsis
Maliq Ali (Clayton Prince) is a defense attorney whose guilt over freeing guilty criminals, and the death of his family, leads him to become a costumed ninja vigilante who stalks these same criminals at night. After refusing to defend Tony Fanelli (Nicky DeMatteo), a small-time mobster accused of murder, he finds himself involved in protecting the only witness, Tracey Allen (Carla Brothers), from Fanelli's hired thugs. While protecting this young woman, he is confronted by The Red Ninja (Yuki Matsuzaki), a Japanese assassin, who years before killed his family rather than pay Ali for defending him.Actors

Lorna Cole (Rene Russo) is pregnant with LAPD sergeant Martin Riggs' baby; they are not married, but both are thinking about it. Police sergeant Roger Murtaugh's daughter Rianne (Tracie Wolfe), is also pregnant, and Riggs later learns from Lorna that Rianne has secretly married Lee Butters (Chris Rock), a young detective who works at the same station as Murtaugh and Riggs – secretly because Roger had made it clear that he does not want his daughter to marry a police officer. Due to the many disasters caused by both sergeants while on duty, the police department has lost its insurance carrier, and cannot get a new one while they're still out on the streets. Because firing them is not an option, the Chief uses a special privilege and they get temporarily promoted to captains, given that there aren't any lieutenant spots available.
