Or: Even though the main character cop is the perfect dad and husband who would do everything for his family, his ungrateful b*tch wife has divorced him. However, when she gets taken hostage by the (Russian or Arab) terrorists the protagonist hero cop has to save her which makes her realise the errors of her ways and come back home.
In the sequel, action hero man meets Natasha, a simple and uncomplicated women who hasn’t been corrupted by the selfish propaganda of breadtube. Action hero man takes her away from the local mens who don’t respect her like whyte man™ does.
