Sylvain Marot, pilote d'exception, est un super-flic parisien qui vient d'arrêter un truand et, parce que celui-ci est d’humeur râleuse, décide de lui offrir quelques dérapages et pics de vitesse dans les grandes rues de la capitale. De retour au poste de police, il apprend être sanctionné pour avoir couché avec la femme du préfet : ce dernier le mute dans une brigade de police municipale de Marseille alors qu'à la base, il rêvait du RAID. Sur place, Alain Trésor, idiot logorrhéique en poste depuis plus de 20 ans à la Criminelle de Marseille et maintenant à la tête de la Municipale, lui présente l'équipe de bras cassés en place : Ménard, un grand dadais des farces et attrapes. Michel, un nain agressif. Régis, un pervers incontrôlable. Et Sandrine, une policière obèse et nymphomane. Lors d'un contrôle de routine, Sylvain est renversé par un chauffeur VTC calamiteux et intellectuellement limité.
