Soft Targets

An Army veteran, ZACK TORRANCE, holds the beach hostage -- including Victor, Cory and several school children -- to insure that his information about a clandestine Army-sponsored drug operation reaches the public. As T.C. tries to negotiate with Zack, F.B.I. agent FRANKLIN QUILL takes over, and his orders result in Zack's death. Quill turns out to have a secret history with Zack, including a suspected affiliation with the C.I.A. Cory tries to fix up T.C. with her school teacher friend GINA, whose ex-boyfriend DEAN, a lifeguard, isn't ready to give her up. Gina is wounded in the beach shoot-out, and when Dean risks his life to come to her aid, Gina realizes her love for him.
