BORDER JUSTICE PILOT (S1E1 THE AWAKENING)

BORDER JUSTICE PILOT (S1E1 THE AWAKENING)
By Brenda Boddy

GENRE: Drama
LOGLINE:

A legendary Texas Ranger from 1908 is reborn in the body of a corrupt Border Patrol agent—and must dismantle the criminal empire his successor built.

SYNOPSIS:

Justice Baird is a corrupt Border Patrol agent who abuses his family and has created a criminal empire. During a raid, Justice is killed in a shootout—in a parallel moment that Texas Ranger Hank Bamer dies in 1908. When Justice’s body is revived, it is no longer occupied by the man who died. Hank wakes inside the body of a stranger, carrying his old-world code of justice into a modern world he does not understand.

As Hank pieces together the life he has inherited, he discovers the damage Justice caused: a broken family, a distrustful tactical team, and a trafficking operation tied to cartel boss Cuervo. Believing he was brought to this time for a reason, Hank takes matters into his own hands, hunting down the traffickers and delivering brutal frontier justice. His actions shock his team, who witness impossible healing abilities and begin to suspect something supernatural is happening.

At home, Hank makes a sincere attempt to connect with his wife, Kenzie and daughter, Samantha, showing a kindness the real Justice never possessed. But Samantha, unable to trust the face of her abuser, has already poisoned his drink. Hank collapses and appears dead—only to rise again more dangerous than ever.
