The newly reopened Alcatraz prison is famous for two things - its new state-of-the-art death chamber, and Lester McKenna, the man who stole more than $200,000,000 worth of gold bullion. The head of the Federal Bureau of Prisons and a Supreme Court Justice have arrived to watch Lester's execution - as have a small but well-equipped team of terrorists, the '49ers'. Led by 49er One, the terrorists find Lester and demand to know the location of his hidden stash of gold. But their plan is disrupted when a prisoner, who is actually an undercover FBI agent, decides to fight back. Teaming up with the inmates, he sets out to liberate the prison from the terrorist gang.
