He reluctantly accepts the job under the condition that he can be back for that and thus heads off for Buenos Aries. There, he meets Miguel (RUBEN BLADES) and Orlando (JULIO OSCAR MECHOSO) who want him to assassinate Humberto Rojas (ELVIO NESSIER), a retired but formerly barbaric general.
After meeting Frankie's Argentine counterpart, Tony Manas (RAUL OUTEADA), John sets out to fit into the surroundings and stake out his objective. While doing so, he comes across a dance hall where the sounds of the tango and the sight of one its dancers, Manuela (LUCIANA PEDRAZZA), immediately entrance him.
When he learns that his target's arrival is delayed and won't be arriving for three weeks, John sets out to learn more about Manuela and the dance, all while preparing for his hit.
Violence consists of a hitman shooting and killing several people, while a few other murders and other violence takes place (but only with mild amounts of blood). Some of those scenes and others might be disturbing or suspenseful to some viewers, while varying degrees of bad attitudes are present. Meanwhile, various characters drink and/or smoke.
