In the series premiere, brothers Raul and Paul Bustamante in San Francisco are given one hour to hide a briefcase worth $100,000. Once the hour is up, they're taken into custody by local San Francisco police detectives Cliff Cook and Dean Taylor and brought to investigative headquarters. Over the next 48 hours, the detectives will work with professional interrogators - Detective Paul Bishop, a high-ranking detective specializing in sex crimes for a major metropolitan police department, who has twice been honored as Detective of the Year, and Deputy District Attorney and best-selling author Mary Hanlon Stone - to combine efforts and determine the location of the briefcase. The only hard information they will have to go on are cell phone records, any receipts they can find and the GPS coordinates from the players' car. The rest will be learned from two days and nights of grueling interrogations and extensive field work. Who will outsmart who ... and get to keep the $100,000?
