Dooley and Kane meet for the first time when they both apply for work at Guard Dog Security, a lowrent firm run by gruff Captain Clarence OConnell Kenneth McMillan and part of a security guards union requiring heavya week contributions that is represented by Clyde Klepper Jonathan Banks and Tony Lazarus Brion James. Becoming licensed armed security guards after a single afternoon of training, Dooley and Kane are made partners by Guard Dog supervisor Maggie Cavanaugh Meg Ryan and assigned to night duty at the Carlex Pharmaceutical Companys warehouse. After being loudly ordered to take a lunch break by senior guard Bruno Tom Lister, Jr., Kane happens upon an armed robbery of the warehouse and quickly calls over the radio to Frank for help, but they prove no match for the thieves Klepper and Lazarus in ski masks who used machine guns. Kane unwittingly escapes into the Annex where Bruno had told them to stay away from as it was guarded by the K9 Patrol Rottweilers and Dobermans. In there he is chased by the dogs until Frank shows up and fights them off with unusual tactics, including biting one and punching another.The next day, the pair are berated and fined 100 each by OConnell for their screw up in not nabbing or identifying the thieves despite their contention that they had machine guns and were wearing ski masks. This leaves them suspicious of the company as they hadnt done anything to warrant the hefty fine almost a weeks pay. When Maggie asks about the meeting afterwards, both men vent their anger about OConnell Dooley calls him a jerk while Kane calls him a Subhuman, moronic, poop head, only to be informed by Maggie that OConnell is actually her father. ........
