A stranger approaches Bobby Chearro, a truck driver, who is stopped at the side of the road taking a rest. Much to Bobby's objection, the stranger insists on riding with Bobby so that he may explain the idea behind the Brotherhood of the Teamsters Union. The stranger introduces himself to Bobby. His name is Jimmy, Jimmy Hoffa. Jimmy has Bobby drop him off before they reach Bobby's appointed stop, so that no one will suspect Bobby of conspiring to join the Union. A few days later Jimmy is making the rounds to all of the trucking company's trying to convince everyone to join up with the Union. Jimmy stops at the trucking company where Bobby is employed and lets out the information that they had ridden together and spoke of the Union. This statement costs Bobby his job. Bobby is furious and approaches Jimmy with a knife. One of Jimmy's friends stops Bobby from killing Jimmy and Jimmy offers Bobby a job with the Union. We watch as, through the years, Bobby becomes Jimmy's right hand man. We see how the Teamsters Union worked its way to a thriving membership of over 1,800,000. We see the power that it held and how much it really cost Jimmy Hoffa.
