Margret, a police officer working in a small town where nothing ever happens, has a boring life, but she is happy solving the trivial problems of her neighbors, until her monotonous existence is altered when she receives a call from a London private school.

The Departed

To take down South Boston's Irish Mafia, the police send in one of their own to infiltrate the underworld, not realizing the syndicate has done likewise. While an undercover cop curries favor with the mob kingpin, a career criminal rises through the police ranks. But both sides soon discover there's a mole among them.
