If you've played This Is the Police, you may remember the Bloody Shirt action films the characters often rhapsodize about. It's finally time to reveal the story of the first, and by most accounts, the best film of the series.

Johnny Mastroianni has a good life. He works as a corporate lawyer. His family adores him. And he even has the time to pursue his favorite hobby: Johnny designs men's suits in his basement workshop. He has a special talent for silk shirts.

But for Johnny this isn't just a hobby — it's also a chance for him to get closer to his roots. His grandfather and father were tailors as well, and indeed Johnny dreams of reviving the family business. One day he shares this dream in confession with Pastor Belardo — and he receives the priest's blessing.

Johnny turns to his senior colleagues, Carl Prickton and Edward Nord, for an investment. With their money, he launches production — and in two years he turns Mastroianni into a leader in the premium men's clothing industry, rivaling Gucci and Versace. Coveting Mastroianni's success, the partners decide to take the company away from Johnny.

Prikton and Nord learn that Johnny confesses to Pastor Belardo, and they offer the priest a fortune in exchange for information. The pastor agrees — and reveals to the villains that Johnny suffers from mental problems, and is subject to uncontrollable outbursts of rage. Further, he's terrified that his wife, children or colleagues might fall victim.

Seizing upon this, Prikton and Nord launch a whole campaign against Johnny. They bribe a doctor to conclude that Johnny is unfit to perform his duties, and bribe Mastroianni employees to complain of Johnny's inappropriate behavior. The board of directors removes Johnny, and even the courts side with the conspirators.

Johnny's life is in ruins. Deceived and forsaken, and mentally unstable, he awakens the monster within him — and sets out to take his revenge.

First he hunts down Linda Schiller, his former “right hand” in the company. She publicly aired the lie that Johnny attempted to rape her. He stuffs her in the Mastroianni ironing press, and keeps her there until Linda's screams are lost in the smell of her steaming flesh.

Johnny then goes after Antoine Fourier, the intern who lied that Johnny threw sewing supplies at him in anger. Johnny pushes Antoine into a trunk, takes him to his basement workshop, and embroiders his skin with silk threads. Antoine dies of shock from the pain.

Next, Johnny breaks into Edward Nord's home, drags him into the dressing room and strangles him with a Mastroianni shirt until Nord's eyes pop out of his head.
After that, Johnny tracks down Carl Prickton at a strip club. He shoots Prikton in the groin with a shotgun, then finishes him off with a shot to the head.

Of those who betrayed him, only Pastor Belardo remains. Johnny plants a bomb under the church altar, and then attends Sunday service. As the pastor begins his sermon, Johnny presses the button on the detonator. The explosion blows Pastor Belardo's body into bloody pieces. The church evacuates in stampede, and only Johnny remains on the bench, watching, smiling, as Pastor Belardo's blood drips from the church crucifix.
