Financial TV host Lee Gates and his producer Patty are put in an extreme situation when an irate investor takes them and their crew as hostage. Lee Gates is the host of the financial TV discussion show 'Money Monster'. He tells his viewers about the downfall of the corporation Ibis, which has seen its stock plummet and a loss of $800 million in shares, and its CEO Walt Camby is in Geneva, unable to comment on the situation of his company. Before the next show, Lee talks to his studio director Patty Fenn, who is taking a new job across the street. Lee finds out that Camby, who was supposed to be the guest on his show, has cancelled on them, so they are going to interview Ibis's CCO Diane Lester. A few minutes into the show, a supposed deliveryman walks into view and holds them at gunpoint, forcing Lee to put on a bomb vest. The police arrive outside and try to negotiate with the hostage-taker. Meanwhile, Diane investigates what really went wrong with Ibis and discovers that Camby wasn't really in Geneva, but in South Africa. The police bring Kyle's pregnant girlfriend to the studio to contact him, and Kyle starts to rethink his plan. As the police plan to take out the bomb vest receiver, Patty warns Lee, and he grabs Kyle and escapes the studio. Patty heads to the federal hall to catch Camby while the rest of the crew gathers evidence against him. Lee forces Camby to explain what really happened with Ibis's money, and Kyle orders Camby to admit his wrongdoing. In the end, Kyle sacrifices himself, and Lee and Patty recover at the hospital, contemplating their next move.
