* BoomerangBigot: Bobby is reluctantly drawn into the case of a murdered Jewish storekeeper (he really wants to be tracking a fugitive with his partner), and when the relatives of the murdered woman say they heard someone shooting on the roof near their place, is disinclined to believe them. Gold doesn't use any antisemitic slurs, but he does refer to the family as "you people", and when he's on the phone with his partner later (about the other case he wants to be on), he cracks about how Jews must have done something wrong to be persecuted. Unfortunately, he does this without knowing the dead woman's granddaughter [[RightBehindMe is sitting behind him]]. Once he realizes this, and after she [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech tears him a new one for his attitude, Gold [[spoiler:does a HeelFaceTurn, becomes dedicated to solving the murder, and treats it as a hate crime. Unfortunately, he was wrong about that - it was a simple robbery gone wrong - and because he wouldn't supply a crucial piece of information to the people trying to help the family, he gets shunned by them as well]].

!Tropes for the film:
* ApopheniaPlot: The plot is about Bobby Gold, a Jewish homicide detective who investigates the murder of an old woman who in her younger days was involved with Zionist gun-running and is drawn into the involvement with Mossad and violent attacks on neo-Nazis. The final revelation is that the murder was probably coincidental, as were all the elements that made him think it was related to politics and the old woman's past.
