Synopsis
In a neon-drenched Los Angeles where burger joints double as drug fronts, idealistic rookie Jake Harlan is assigned to veteran detective Ronald McDonald for his training day. What starts as routine calls and street smarts quickly twists into a whirlwind of bribes, hits, and clown-faced executions as Ronald reveals his iron grip on the city's grease-soaked empire. Jake must decide whether to join the madness or survive it. As the body count rises and Ronald's true empire is exposed through drive-thru drops and mascot murders, Jake's morals are tested in increasingly grotesque ways. Ronald's world blurs the line between corporate mascot and kingpin, forcing Jake to confront how deep the fries go. In a final bloody showdown at the flagship McDonald's, truths are served and legacies are flipped.
The story

Cold open
INT. CRUISER - NIGHT Rain streaks the windshield as rookie JAKE HARLAN, 24, grips the wheel. Beside him, RONALD MCDONALD, 50s, face painted in fading greasepaint, chews a burger. RONALD First rule, kid: never eat the evidence. Second rule: always supersize the bribe. They pull up to a drive-thru window. A nervous TEEN hands over a bag. Ronald opens it, pulls out cash, and slides a badge across. RONALD Good boy. Now forget you saw the clown. Jake stares, horrified. Ronald laughs, a low terrifying chuckle, and guns the engine. EXT. ALLEY - NIGHT Ronald drags a DEALER out, beats him with a Happy Meal box. Jake freezes. JAKE This isn't procedure! RONALD Procedure is for clowns who don't own the circus.
