Army Captain Johnny "Fizzy" Davis is a military sharp-shooter sent on assignment to kill the wrong man, a billionaire who supplied arms and supplies to northwest United States white supremacists. His commander, Dr. John "Buddy" Brown ("Dr. Doom" to Johnny), sets him up for the bad kill-shot and officially suspends Davis. Then, Dr. Doom has him shipped to a safe house in Seattle, Washington, where it rains a lot, and where the suspended captain goes undercover as a professor at a local college. With assistance from several fellow Army officers who happen to be Mossad-trained, including his ex-girlfriend, Colonel Jane Roberts (O.K., they dated twice ... once ... whatever), Fizzy is assigned to keep an eye out for the overzealous patriots who are connected with the kill-shot, and the dead billionaire's daughters might be students, and there are at least a few people very angry with the suspended captain; there are two other billionaire brothers who might be around, and they're pretty angry, too. Johnny and the Mossad soldiers including his ex-gal (eh ...) gather intel and soon realize that there is more to this cat's-cradle of events than Dr. Doom is letting on about. It rains a lot in Seattle and its surrounds but not much chance of a twister, and Fizzy can always play the game, at least in his mind along with those thoughts about Twister, the movie, while holding on to his sanity somehow. Johnny has two wildcats as bodyguards, Bob the black jaguar and Bum the puma, who like whipped cream and scotch as treats --- and I'd rather share the scotch with the wildcats than toss it into a damn tornado The intel also reveals that Dr. Doom has other plans for (suspended) Captain Davis besides keeping an eye on folks trying to kill him --- if they find out he's the sharp-shooter ("shootist") who killed their dad ... uncle ... billionaire brother ... fellow zealot. (All of the above.) Pet The Twister: Johnny's dealing with a twisted (and zealous) commander, dangerous (and twisted) patriotic zealots, lots of rain, and Bob and Bum are the only mammals he trusts besides himself ... Who's trying to kill me ? ?
