Port officials in Oakland, California, are struggling to locate three mysterious stowaways hidden somewhere on the busy harbour. Meanwhile, officers in Texas have confronted a man whose chosen spot for concealing cocaine has turned out to be the wrong one, in the end.

It's a two‑part programme that shifts its focus between the bustling Port of Oakland in California and a law‑enforcement operation in Texas. It juxtaposes the logistical headaches at a major West Coast harbour with a high‑stakes drug bust in the American South, linking the two storylines through their investigative thrust. In Oakland, port officials are baffled as they've tried to track down three enigmatic stowaways who have somehow managed to slip aboard without detection. Their search becomes a race against time, as the hidden passengers remain elusive despite the authorities’ best efforts. Meanwhile, in Texas, a team of officers confronts a man whose decision to conceal his cocaine in an ill‑chosen location brings him directly into the line of fire. The contrasting settings highlight the varied challenges faced by those tasked with maintaining security. At the harbour, the mystery revolves around unnoticed individuals, while in Texas the danger stems from a reckless attempt to hide illicit drugs. Both scenarios underscore the unpredictable nature of criminal activity. Through these parallel narratives, the programme offers a glimpse into the complexities of modern policing and port management, showing how it's a single misstep—whether a hidden passenger or a poorly stashed drug shipment—can trigger a cascade of investigative action.
