After spending a week behind bars as an inmate in Texas, Reggie Yates crosses the thin blue line to take on a terrifying new challenge: working as a correctional officer at the volatile Guilford County Jail in North Carolina. Facing an unprecedented 20% staff shortage, racial tensions, and a constant threat of violence, Reggie pulls grueling 12-hour shifts alongside veteran guards. From the chaotic, drug-fueled arrivals in the booking room to the high-stakes segregation pods housing the jail's most dangerous offenders, this documentary exposes the raw, dehumanizing reality of the American prison complex from the eyes of the people who hold the keys. Discover the massive mental and emotional toll it takes to keep order when you are vastly outnumbered.
