Synopsis

Fifteen years ago, Ethan Dalton was a squeegee kid washing car windows on the street with barely three dollars to his name. Richard Harrington, a kind stranger, changed his life with a single act of kindness -- taking him in and giving him a chance. Ethan never forgot that generosity. Now, fifteen years later, Ethan returns as a rising aerospace tycoon, determined to repay his benefactor. But he arrives to discover that Richard has been betrayed by the very adopted children he raised. His company is in ruins, his health failing, and those he trusted most have turned against him. Ethan declares: "No mercy for the ungrateful." Armed with his newfound power and wealth, he sets out to destroy Richard's betrayers and restore the man who saved him.
