They take part in an organized huge payout-carjacking scheme. Low and Rob do whatever is necessary to complete the deal, including stealing and committing murder. After attaining the required cars, Low and Rob cashes in, but not before Rob gets shot in the head. With a huge payoff, and his best friend out of commission, stealing cars is no go for Low. His luck changes when he runs into Razor, a high-ranking member of Miami's most ruthless organization, Zoë Pound. Low gets a taste of fast money, flashy cars, and pretty women. He’s willing to get into the game. Razor is killed, and Low's gangsta is tested. Good fortune befalls Low, and he’s ready to take over the entire North-side of Miami. Low has a change of heart when his girlfriend becomes pregnant. He invests in legal activities, and gets into the music industry.

He receives a hefty sentence for his crimes. But Low has an ace in the hole. He vows to get his position in the drug game back. It's also time to set his revenge in motion.

George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) is revered as one of the great British dramatists, credited not only with memorable works, but the revival of the then-suffering English theatre. Shaw was born in Dublin, Ireland, left mostly to his own devices after his mother ran off to London to pursue a musical career. He educated himself for the most part, and eventually worked for a real estate agent. This experience founded in him a concern for social injustices, seeing poverty and general unfairness afoot, and would go on to address this in many of his works. In 1876, Shaw joined his mother in London where he would finally attain literary success. Written the first decade of the twentieth century, «Misalliance» is a sort of continuation of another of Shaw's play, «Getting Married». Set over the course of an afternoon, this play furthers Shaw's opinion that divorce should be an easily attainable thing.

"The Man of Destiny" is one of Shaw's shorter works, just a one act play, in which we see the mastery of character development that is so common to the playwright's works. The play is an investigation of a young twenty-seven year old general by the name of Napoleon Bonaparte who has yet to achieve the accomplishments for which make him such an important figure in world history. In the play we find him waiting impatiently at an inn on the road between Lodi and Milan for a packet of dispatches to arrive, in which he will discover the truth of a personal betrayal. With rich dialogue and dramatic style Shaw delivers within this short little work a satisfying character study and a portrait of the everyday life of a great man prior to his greatness.
