However, his plans are put on hold when his friend Amos Reed is murdered by an affiliate of local seafood magnate Walter Boyett. As Amos' only witness is Hooch, a massive Dogue de Bordeaux that Amos owned, Scott reluctantly takes the dog in.

Despite their differences, the duo works together to solve Amos' murder case while also forming an unlikely friendship along the way.
