Welcome to Thriller Recapped, Today, I will show you an American Thriller film called,
“Compliance”, Spoilers Ahead, watch out and take care.
The movie begins with, Sandra, manager of South ChickWich fast food restaurant, waiting for her
staff to arrive. After a moment, Becky, along with, Kevin, arrives at the fast-food restaurant.
Sandra begins reminding her staff to be at their best for the night, since a franchise
quality-control person will come, as a secret customer. She also expresses her concern, because
someone left the freezer door open last night—a reason for their food stocks to get spoiled.
Sandra then reminds her staff to be working by the book, not just by making the order right,
but also in the right order. Later, the day starts as Sandra's staff begins working.
Meanwhile, at the counter, Becky is talking to, Marti, the shift supervisor. Becky is expressing,
that she thinks Sandra is suspecting her of leaving the freezer door open.
Marti tells her not to worry, since Sandra thinks that the one who did it is,
Kevin. Their conversation shifts to the guy Becky is talking to.
Suddenly, Sandra joins their conversation, sharing the news that her boyfriend might propose, since
her boyfriend called her father already. Marti and Becky give their congratulations to Sandra.
Their conversation again shifts to the guy Becky is talking to, who keeps sending him
sensual photos. Marti remarks that he and Sandra are too old for that. Sandra then refutes Marti,
by telling her that her boyfriend knows what to do to keep things exciting,
and always get her worked up. As Sandra leaves from there, she peeks at them and sees that Becky
and Marti are laughing about her statement. They both then continue talking about the guys again.
Afterwards, Sandra continues doing her manager duties. She checks on the custodian,
Harold, if he is doing his job well. To her surprise, Harold is already done with his
tasks. Harold tells Sandra that he may come back later to try some milkshakes.
While working, she gets a phone call from her boyfriend, Van, asking her permission to hang out
with his friend. Sandra tells Van that he does not need her permission to spend time with his
friends. However, Sandra tells Van not to get drunk too much. Sandra says that she is going
back to work, since they are swamped for the day. She says goodbye and drops the call. Meanwhile,
Becky, Kevin, and Connie, are talking at the counter about changing their working schedule,
all of a sudden, Sandra interrupts them and tells them to do their jobs. After a moment,
Marti calls Sandra saying that there is a phone call from a policeman at the restaurant office.
Sandra goes to the phone and answers it. A man from the other line introduces himself as,
Officer Daniels, from the Police Department. Officer Daniels tells
her that he is in contact with their regional manager, Robert Gilmour.
Eventually, Sandra asks if the call is about the freezer, but the Officer dismisses it,
he then tells her that the call is about theft. He continues by saying that one of Sandra's employees
stole some money from a customer's purse. Officer then describes the identity of the employee he is
pertaining to, Sandra, to her disbelief identified referred employee as Becky. Officer eventually
confirms that it is Becky. He also tells Sandra that Becky is also part of a bigger investigation.
Sandra gets Becky from the counter, and lets Marti take over her station. Sandra then leads
Becky to the restaurant office. She lets her talk to the Officer. Becky eventually denies
all the accusations, with Officer’s commands, Sandra checks Becky's pockets and sees nothing.
Sandra also holds on to Becky's phone for the time being, as Officer commands, the following, he asks
Sandra to check Becky’s purse. Becky persists that she did not steal anything from anyone.
Sandra tells Becky that if she finds something in her purse, she is going to fire her. Becky then
lets Sandra check her purse. However, she finds nothing. As Sandra tells Officer that there is
nothing on Becky's purse, Officer asks her to keep Becky at the restaurant, in the meantime and wait
for the police to arrive at the restaurant. Sandra agrees and Becky sits down on a chair.
Later, Officer tells her that they need to put Becky in a holding cell for the night.
He then states that in order to keep the situation contained, he asks Sandra to strip-search Becky.
However, Sandra expresses her discomfort in doing it.
Officer tells her that if she does not do this, there can be a trial that can take a long time,
and a direct cost to Becky being taken in. Officer then lets Sandra tell Becky to stay in a holding
cell for the night, or undergo strip-searching at the restaurant office. Becky expresses that she
does not want to consent for both of it, since she did not steal anything. Sandra further explains to
Becky on what will happen if she won’t choose. Eventually, Becky decides to be strip-searched,
but she wants Marti to be there in the restaurant office. Officer agrees with the condition. Sandra
goes out to get Marti. Meanwhile, Becky continues talking to Officer Daniels.
Their conversation leads to Becky’s older brother, who has been in trouble with the law.
He then remarks that She does not know about her brother, who is still in trouble with the law.
Before the conversation goes further, Sandra and Marti arrive to the restaurant’s office. Sandra
explains to Marti on what is going on. Eventually, Sandra and Marti begin with the strip-searching.
Becky removes her shirt, undershirt, shoes, and pants, as well as her sun
visor cap. Sandra checks all of her clothes and informs Officer that she found nothing.
He then asks her to check Becky's underwear. Sandra hesitantly asks Becky to take her
underwear off. She eventually takes it off and hands it to Sandra.
Later, Sandra confirms that there is nothing on her underwear. Officer then tells her to let Becky
turn around to check her body. After Sandra finds nothing, Officer then asks Sandra to put Becky’s
clothes in a bag and put them in her car, since there can be secret pockets that Sandra is not
trained to find it. Officer tells her that when they get there, they will check Becky’s clothes.
With this, Marti finds it suspicious to put the clothes in Sandra’s car,
when the police can check the clothes inside the restaurant office when they arrive.
Sandra then questions the Officer, if she can just leave the clothes at the restaurant office.
Officer Daniels answers that he will not allow it, since if the clothes stay with Becky,
she may slip the stolen money somewhere, and get away with what she has done.
Sandra does not seem to buy what Officer said. Eventually, Officer reveals it to Sandra that
they are searching Becky’s house, since Becky’s older brother may be involved with selling illegal
drugs, and that Becky may also be selling it. Officer also tells Sandra that since this
is a more extensive investigation, they are hoping that they can find the stolen money,
then they can bring Becky in, and get a confession for the drugs investigation.
After Sandra puts Becky's clothes in her car, she goes back to the office restaurant. Marti goes
back to help Connie at the counter. Sandra then tells Officer that she needs to resume managing
the restaurant, since it is their busiest time. Officer tells her that they are in the middle
of searching Becky's house, so, it will take longer than a minute to get to the restaurant.
He then asks her, if she has an employee, Trustworthy enough to watch Becky. After a moment,
Sandra gets Kevin to the restaurant office. Sandra then explains to Kevin that Becky may have stolen
money from a customer, and that her brother is in trouble too. Kevin tells her that Becky did
not do it, and her brother cannot be in trouble, since he knows Becky's brother personally. Sooner,
Sandra lets Kevin watch Becky until the police get to the restaurant.
Later, Officer asks Kevin to take off the apron, and inspect Becky’s whole body. Becky tells him
that Sandra already did that to her. Kevin becomes suspicious of Officer Daniels and tells him that
he is going to leave for a second. Kevin walks out of the restaurant office, and Sandra stops him.
He tells her that Becky is his friend, and he does not want to do anything with the situation.
Sandra has no choice but to go back to the restaurant office. She asks Officer
on what happened, and Officer Daniels says that Kevin is unprofessional. Officer then scolds
Sandra for telling Kevin about the confidential information involving Becky's brother. Eventually,
Officer gives her a choice between watching over Becky by herself, or to find someone reliable to
watch Becky. He then brings up Sandra's boyfriend, Van, to come by the restaurant and help.
Sandra hesitates at first but eventually she agrees, and calls Van to come to the restaurant.
After a while, Van arrives to the restaurant. Sandra explains everything to Van,
and she lets him keep an eye on Becky. While watching over Becky, Officer orders Van to force
Becky to remove her apron, and check her body. Van tells Officer that he can’t make him do it.
Officer tells him to give the phone to Becky. Eventually, Officer manipulates Becky into letting
Van check her whole body. Officer also asks Becky to perform naked jumping jacks in front of Van,
to expose suspected contraband in her body. Sooner, Becky tries to persuade
Sandra about the trauma as she comes into the restaurant office for a quick visit.
When she leaves the restaurant office, Officer demands Van to spank Becky, as a punishment
for her being disobedient. Right after, Officer forces Becky again, this time to try Van’s sausage
Later, Officer requests Sandra to look for another guy to take Van's place,
after Van leaves feeling guilty of what Officer let him do. Sandra then assigns the custody to,
Harold, who comes back at the restaurant for a milkshake to watch over Becky.
Sandra again explains the situation to Harold. Eventually, Officer Daniel’s
command of taking Becky’s apron off again, enrages Harold. Sandra calls Robert Gilmour,
the regional manager after Harold informs her of Officer Daniel’s inappropriate orders.
Robert Gilmour tells Sandra that he has been sick for the whole day,
and no police have contacted him. Sandra finally realizes that Officer’s call is a spam.
When the police arrives, they lead Becky out and search for evidence.
Later, Detective Neals investigate the incidents, he assigns police officer on what to do,
and where to start investigating, and he calls people who may be able to help the case.
He eventually finds out that similar events are documented from that very same guy, who
is found to be a telemarketer and a family man. After closed investigation of recordings, they
identify the caller, and Daniel is arrested. The movie ends with Becky requesting to pursue a legal
complaint against Sandra, but her lawyer proposes that she should target the restaurant instead.
Sandra, who today is out of a job, ends her relationship with Van following the event,
and she is asked by a journalist about it, but she is not able to answer all of the questions,
since her lawyer is there. It shows that in almost thirty states in US,
over seventy similar real incidents happened over the past years. And the movie ends,
