Opening Introduction (narrated by Charles Falco – voice disguised):

When I first took a deal to become an undercover informant of a biker gang, I did it to save my own skin. But over the next three years, putting bad guys away became my personal mission. I saw it as a chance to make amends for my past mistakes. But I paid a heavy price. I'm Charles Falco, and this is my story.
