A little bit about the plot... I have few brain cells... If you have any omissions, please lightly spray...

Let’s start with a glimpse of the plot. Let’s

call the Director of the CIA the

Big Boss and the Senator died. The Big Boss stepped in and let others leave it alone. The

Big Boss found Paul and said that Cassius killed the Senator.

Paul insisted that Cassius was dead. And the newcomer Geary

said that Brutus was not dead yet. Paul was very angry.

Paul asked the big boss to give him a clean life. The boss said that if the case cannot be resolved, he can’t continue. The director told

Paul that year. BOSS help grasp the six Cassius seven people in the group, so BOSS was able to upsize

Paul Geary went battery with guys, road Geary asked why did not you tell Paul battery BOSS guy is still alive, Paul says Boss afraid that they killed him

battery guy Jailbreak, killed by Paul, revealing the fact that Paul is Cassius, the

plot does not repeat... The

last burden

Geary is also a spy.

His task is to clean up Paul, pave the way for the newcomer, and take the plane that night, abandon his wife and children, and return to Russia.

Paul advises Greary not to do this.

Paul and the majestic gay man who killed his family will end up with

Geary. Faced with the boss and the people who came to deal with the scene, he made up a story that ghosts did not believe.

When he left, the Boss asked Geary if he intended to play for "us"

Geary. Go home and end here






is a little humble opinion~

Paul was originally a Russian spy in the United States,

but Paul made a mistake (married a wife, and had a child in Geneva),

so the Russian sent a majestic man to kill Paul’s Wife and children

Paul was distraught, so he turned to the United States and offered the other six members of the Cassius group of seven to the Boss.

Boss was valued because of the six people Paul gave, and Paul also needed the political protection of the Boss.

During the period Paul began to assassinate the people in various countries. Various characters (maybe for revenge, killing everyone who may be the murderer; or maybe the task assigned to him by Boss)

reason: Paul reported to Boss, Cassius started killing people, and the Geneva tragedy happened in 1988!

Boss knew Paul was Cassius early on!

The best proof is

1. Paul insisted that Cassius was dead, but Boss did not directly question why Paul was so sure. He just insisted on asking Paul to investigate

2. Paul learned that the battery guy in the seven-member group was not dead but the director has been When he kept the word from him, he was very angry (maybe Paul thinks that the murderer who killed his wife and children also cut his neck, so the murderer should be one of the six). Note that the director has a lot

of puns3. Paul said he was the boss. Blabla

Boss said to Paul that he couldn’t continue the case if he couldn’t end the case. It meant that he couldn’t provide Paul with identity protection, and it’s not good for Paul.


4, Geary asked Paul why Boss didn’t tell him that the battery guy was dead , Paul said that Boss was afraid that he would kill the battery guy


and watch the baggage at the end of the show!


After Geary made up that story ghosts do not believe, Boss meaningful asked if he was interested in the "we" validity

"we" is a pun (Boss is a pun master ah ......)

refers to the upper surface of the CIA sector (Geary is FBI), it seems that Geary is going to quit.

Actually, I think "we" refers to the United States

because the Boss already knows Paul’s true identity.

And Geary put the watch on the majestic man, lied that the majestic man was Cassius.

I think Boss understood two things at this time.

1. Geary was also a Russian agent and found out the true identity of Cassius.

2. Geary was able to understand Paul’s Pain, want to preserve his reputation (this is not certain, maybe I think too much...)

Based on the second point, Boss thinks Geary can be attracted, so he asked "Are you willing to work for us" at the

end of the film Geary sat in the car looking at his wife and children, and finally smiled, got out of the car and went home.

He didn't fly back to Russia!

It shows that he has accepted the director's solicitation, he does not want to be the second Paul.








Overall, the biggest winner is the CIA director!

Jiang Guoran is still old and spicy...


Richard Gere is still sexy and his emotional performance is in place. The old drama bones are after all the old drama bones...

Topher Grace is handsome and cute, and his acting skills are decent~ The previous idiot-like pretend is too similar. ...But really from the beginning I thought he should be the spy who came to get rid of Paul...maybe because he was too idiot when he came up...

Stephen Moyer, the tragedy battery guy...Although there are not many scenes, but that madness The performance by

Martin Sheen is quite

brilliant ... Martin Sheen, CIA director, to be honest... Odette Yustman... Curly hair, beautiful legs, hips , pretty waist, chubby chest, wheat complexion, humor, good at cooking, holding children So gentle at the time, especially the big tearful eyes when I heard that my husband is in danger (PS: the above advantages are listed in no particular order)...suckling~ahahahahahaha...stop it...
