Movie opens in front of a painted backdrop. A worker walks in front of the backdrop making gibberish noises and then waves hello to some workers passing. The camera pulls back to reveal an oil rig somewhere in the pacific of japan. Then we get a shot of a foreman who is doing his daily routine. Suddenly, he notices some smoke coming from the chain of equipment which malfunctions, coupled with a failed attempt to seal the well and ignites the oil.

(We cut to the IWN news showing the rig on fire.)

Mary Ann: We are told the super rig is now in total danger of collapse and there is real concern for the lives of six men who remain trapped on board. An emergency call went out to the Thunderbolts just a few minutes ago, they should be here any moment now. [She looks to the sky.] And here they are.
