麦克和尼克是中学同学,但毕业后两人却选择了不同的道路。麦克一直靠贩毒为生,尽管近年来他很想摆脱毒品,却欲罢不能。在缉毒组工作的尼克对自己的老同学一直有着极为复杂的情感,他不希望看到自己的好友坐牢却又职责在身,这种矛盾一直困扰着他。但尼克心中有自己的标准,只要证据充足,他一定会将麦克捉拿归案。
近期警方发现麦克经常光顾一家意大利餐厅,他们怀疑麦克在这里贩毒,于是进行严密监控。尼克亲自来到餐厅,恰好麦克在此用餐,在他的引荐下尼克认识了餐厅老板乔安。为了得到证据, 尼克与乔安频繁接触,很快乔安便对尼克产生了好感。经过调查尼克发现乔安其实对麦克一无所知,原本调查应该到此结束,但尼克却感到自己无法抵抗乔安的魅力,两人纷纷坠入爱河。
多年前麦克曾在墨西哥监狱救了一个名叫卡洛斯的犯人,此人是国际通缉的大毒枭,他对麦克的救命之恩很是感激,每当有成色上佳的毒品时总忘不了自己的这个生死之交。他来电话通知麦克,自己要来美国贩卖毒品,顺便拿走之前麦克帮他贩毒所得的毒资。麦克想借此机会和毒品做个了断,于是同意铤而走险。墨西哥警方收到消息,于是派出了探员伊斯卡林特和他的部下,以配合美国警方完成抓捕卡洛斯的工作。
麦克为儿子的生日聚会在乔安的餐厅订餐,乔安带领厨师来到麦克家。看到麦克面对儿子时的慈爱神情,乔安无法相信麦克是一名毒贩。聚会结束后麦克借着酒劲向乔安袒露心声,其实他一直喜欢乔安,但一想到自己的身份便十分自卑。乔安面对麦克的表白心中十分慌乱,其实麦克的举止与风度早已引起了乔安的注意,两个亦敌亦友的男人让乔安无从选择。
收到线报的尼克来到餐厅找乔安,他告诫乔安远离麦克,以免卷入这起贩毒案。尼克内心一直对自己曾经欺骗乔安的感情而内疚,尽管现在他很爱乔安,但必定最初频繁接触的目的是为了打探关于麦克的消息。尼克向乔安坦白了自己的内心,他希望得到谅解。乔安感到自己被捉弄,伤心地离开餐厅。
由于没有人知道卡洛斯的相貌,警方只得派重兵包围了麦克的家,进行严密监控。但谁也没有想到事实上伊斯卡林特就是卡洛斯,他利用这个机会大摇大摆的进入了麦克家。恰巧乔安因心烦意乱来找麦克,卡洛斯感到自己的行踪暴露,于是决定杀死乔安灭口。为了救心上人,麦克不惜与卡洛斯翻脸,他挟持卡洛斯乘游艇将乔安送到安全地带,自己则抱着同归于尽的想法与卡洛斯进行最后的谈判……
《破晓时刻》DVD封面尼克带着手下赶到麦克的游艇,在爆炸声中卡洛斯与毒资一起化为灰烬,麦克侥幸逃出。经历了这一切,乔安作出了她最终的选择。面对乔安的选择,尼克虽然遗憾但还是尊重了她的意见,并从内心祝福他们有情人终成眷属。

Jo Ann:
What is it? You need some chap stick or lip gloss or something?
Because your lips keep getting stuck on your teeth. Or is that your idea of a smile?
Carlos:
Don't worry, buddy. I won't kill her unless you approve.
McKussic:
And if I don't approve?
Carlos:
Then we'll talk until you do...
Dale McKussic:
Nobody wants me to quit. You know, don't quit. Don't get caught.
Stay on top long enough for us to knock you off. I mean,
that's the motto around here. Nobody wants me to quit.
The cops want to bust me. The Colombians want my connections.
My wife, she wants my money. Her lawyer agrees and mine likes getting paid to argue with him.
Nobody wants me to quit. I haven't even mentioned my customers here.
You know they don't want me to quit.
Jo Ann:
That is completely paranoid.
Dale McKussic:
Hey, I'm just talking here. I'm not trying to convince you of a goddamn thing.
And I may be paranoid, but then again nobody wants me to quit.
Jo Ann:
I'm sorry. I was just joking. I didn't mean to hurt you.
Dale McKussic:
Aw, come on. It didn't hurt that bad. Just looking at you hurts more.
Carlos:
By the way, you fuck like a world champion. Four fucking hours! I got hungry just watching you.
Nick Frescia:
Let's not talk about my business, or his business or your business.
Jo Ann:
That leaves us nothing to talk about.
Nick Frescia:
Let's eat.
Nick Frescia:
Generally I recommend my men stay away from vodka, and stick with scotch and bourbon.
Jo Ann:
Why is that?
Nick Frescia:
So the brass will know they're drunk and not stupid.
Jo Ann:
So you thought Andy Leonard would give you respectability.
Dale McKussic:
Yes, ma'am.
Jo Ann:
Well what do you need it for?
Dale McKussic:
... You.
Escalante:
You go to a good deal of trouble to explain an inconsequential event, Lieutenant.
Hal Maguire:
66
Come on Nick. Escalante's waiting. He wants to give you a token of his government's friendship.
e88
Nick Frescia:
What?
Maguire:
A gun. What can I say? He's Mexican.
Jo Ann:
[to Nick] Mr. McKussic, it seems, has been engaged in his business for purely romantic reasons,
whilst you have been engaged in romance for purely business reasons.
Nick Frescia:
You don't lose sight of the facts. Not unless you're nuts. You just... You lose sight of your feelings.
Mac knows how he feels: he's crazy about you and he doesn't want to get caught.
For a crook it's crystal clear. On the other hand for a cop it's confusing.
Mac's my friend and I like him. Maguire's my associate and I hate him.
I probably have to bust my friend if I'm going to do my job.
But I *hate* drug dealers and somebody's got to get rid of Carlos. How do I do that?
Hal Maguire:
If you call her... You go anywhere near Mac's I'll have you shot!
Nick Frescia:
