Its early morning and the waitress are done with her shift. Driver is seen sleeping on the front of his car as the sunlight begins to beam on him. The waitress talks to her friends, Daisy (Chloe Bennett) and Rita (Aubrey Plaza), she’s okay after seeing him and walks up to him. She wonders if he has been waiting for her. He just mentions how he’s learned to wait on a woman. She smiles as she would like to know if he wants to start their date. He gets off the car and told he’s waited for her to ask. She looks at his car and loves it. He tests her to see if she knows what it is, which she does. Driver smiles at her and goes to open the passenger door for her. She asks for his name but he asks the same back. “Mia…” she says as she smiles brightly like the light that beams behind her like a Heavenly light. Driver looks almost buffaloed by her presence.
Shoot to five years later, Driver looks rugged and beaten as he has been through hell. He death stares/glares at the other guy on the opposite side of the both of the same diner. “So… I guess… You’re wondering why I invited…” S starts to say, but Driver interrupts knowing full well why this place. S isn’t surprised since Driver isn’t a sucker for headgames. He tries to explain again this wasn’t personal but Driver knows it was. Since he knows, he says “I know why you took the job, Samuel…” Mr. S (Norman Reedus) laughs as the camera pans from infront of Driver to see Mr. S or Samuel laughing. He smiles as he shows some silver and gold teeth. “Yeah… I figured you would… D… So why don’t we get to it, then…” Driver now stares at him like some old demon he hasn’t gotten rid of yet as enemy/enemy look at one another.
Night by Kavinsky ft. Lovefoxx plays as the title in hot pink "DRIVE" display over the city of Phoenix, AZ with the normal credits and shots of the city.
Herb(Bruce Campbell) and Milton (Benjamin Bratt) watch as Peter Ridge (Peter Capaldi)is taken in a bodybag. Seth Corbin (Dominic Cooper) is giving them a hostile lecture as they have let this get out of control. He tells them to get this solved or else. Herb seems to be pissed by this as someone must have let this happen, which means there are moles on the inside. Milton doesn’t believe it since he has faith in the system but Herb needs to be alone. Herb rushes out as Milton watches carefully.
Flashback to Driver and Mia (Jessica Pare)’s first date, where they talk over breakfast burritos. Driver seems to have recommended them to be the best in town and Mia lost a bet since she agrees. She asks what the toothpick he put from his mouth to his ear is for. It helps him focus basically which makes Mia more interested in him. Driver seems confused but she explains she saw him and thought of a more complex Rubik cube. Driver is more confused till she tells him she loves puzzles and when it’s about humans, they’re better.
Driver stares at Samuel as he eats a cheap pizza that he got from Daisy (Chloe Bennett) and Rita (Aubrey Plaza). S talks about how the cheap things always surprise including when they’re good. Driver gets more upset by S playing games. He asks how did he find him, which makes him offended. He reminds him he has always been able to find him since they were kids in the “good ole days” Driver doesn’t to think the same since he always had a worst time in those. Samuel reminds him how their “dad”, a term which Driver doesn’t like since he wasn’t. Samuel remembers it like it was paradise with the crime attached. But remembers how he learned about cars by having to hurt people to do so. Samuel seems to think opposite since Driver was the favorite till he beat their “dad” to death with a tire iron. Sam seems to rescint him for it. Driver though thinks of it the best moment of his life when he saw what he was being made into.
A slow cut of Driver walking up to a man who is struggling to breathe as some tall figure stands over him with brass knuckles on. Driver is a teen as he sees the man bleeding from the mouth with blood coating down his shirt. S is smiling as he seems to love the sight. Driver looks over to see a boy hiding frightened till the tall figure tells Driver to teach the boy a lesion as well. Driver doesn’t want to and he gets a heavy, hard smack to the face. S offers to do it but doesn’t since Driver needs to learn to listen. Driver gets up and gets handed a hammer. The wounded man begins to get up but is stopped by a brass knuckle punch. Driver slow motion walks up to the scared, little boy as Driver suddenly sees Standard and Benico from the scene of Drive. This makes Driver hesitate as some white noise plays till the tall figure screams at Driver. Driver snaps back as he’s his older version and Benico is gone and it’s the scared boy again. Driver looks at the boy and as his younger self he swings the hammer down.
Herb walks down an alley as he waits for someone till Moses (Morris Chestnut) comes out. Moses wonders what’s going on since Herb let him go. Herb has a feeling that the guy he interviewed from earlier about the murder of his wife and everything has happened is connected. Moses thinks he’s full of shit till he got a USB flash drive from Peter when he was about to walk away. He plays what’s an audio of Driver questioning then torturing him from earlier. Herb didn’t recognize the voice till he saw Driver was at the police station. Herb asks who he is since he’s the major piece of this puzzle. He just wants to help Driver since he has gotten tangled with someone who clearly wants to play. Moses tells him what he knows. One day, his buddy, Felix, told him a guy is coming into town to start over something about lying low. He was a friend who just needed some new IDs and some stuff to make a new life. One day, Moses got a job he couldn’t get out of. A couple of Mexican drug dealers needed a guy to help move product. Driver offered to help but what happened was Driver set the head dogs up as he saw the father was beating up his daughter. They got max sentences with no patrol by the evidence. Driver gave all the money he earned to Moses and Moses set his game up with rules set by Driver. No dealing to kids, no weapons to hostiles, and help him with any jobs he decided to take that would be low risk. They did this for years till one day something happened. Herb figures it out that it was Driver meeting his wife. Moses confirms this and Herb asks what her name was. “Mia… Her name was Mia…”
Mia and Driver have been dating for a year now as they enjoy a spot on a cliff as Driver seems to be the happiest he’s ever been. They joke till Driver finally laughs infront of her. Driver has to work tonight to which Mia asks what he does. Driver avoids the topic as he just wants to be with her and not the life or the world... She too wants to be with him as they cuddle in their spot looking at the town.
Driver uses that memory but it’s quickly erased as Samuel knows him being calm means he’s reminded of that “Mia whore” This makes Driver wanna launch up and jump over to choke him. But S’s goons are waiting as some are waiting to attack the other waitresses as well. Samuel notices how Driver’s anger still gets him into trouble. Just like LA to now, violence and darkness will always follow him and the fact he brought that to Mia, makes him a terrible person. Driver finds that funny considering how their father figure was beyond the border line of a terrible. S gets upset but thinks he has a better idea to get his point across. He’s gonna tell his men to kill his wife’s friends and then maybe he’ll get it. Driver asks what that would be but S thinks it be funnier if he didn’t explain. He gets up to leave and tells him the wasp always knows how to kill the scorpion.
As soon as S leaves, the goons goes to kill Daisy and Rita but Driver then goes full rampage as he splashes hot coffee on the guy who goes to stop him. He then grabs a steak knife and stabs the guy in the neck multiple times as blood shoots out and coats the window. Driver hears a cock and that makes him use the dead body to block shotgun blast. He then jumps over the booths to tackle the guy; they struggle by landing blows on each other till Driver removes a device to make it where the guy’s face blows up as he shoots his brains everywhere.
S walks to his car but he hears the noise and screams as S smiles big. He loves to know Driver deep and buried down is the same guy he knows.
Rita tries to defend Daisy but Rita gets stabbed for her efforts. Daisy screams which makes Driver turn on full psycho mode. Driver blasts through the kitchen doors as one guy tries to attack Driver with a knife till Driver puts him through a meat slicer as his nose to his eye balls gets sliced. The other guy uses Daisy as armor but Driver reminds what he taught them and she kicks the guy in the balls which helps him stun the guy to the point he puts his face into the deep fryer. The guy tries to swing around but through Driver’s groaning and Daisy’s screaming the sizzling is drown out by “Two against One” by Dangerous Mouse plays.
We see the wreckage as Driver throws the body down. Daisy is panicking as she sees the bloody bodies. Driver calms her down as he asks how she’s been since he hasn’t seen her since the wedding to her sister. They catch up till he tells her Mia about Mia and why he killed everyone is cause they did it. This makes Daisy calm down and then sees why Mia always said she’s his rock. Driver agrees as he looks at the bracelet Mia made him. It was for the time she saw him kill someone…
