At the same time a squad of terrorists are getting ready to kidnap Carlson and his daughter.They get them away successfully and take them to a secure location.


Months earlier, agent Carlson was sent on a assassination mission in Iran where he was supposed to kill a high ranked target and be congratulated for his work. A misunderstanding had took place with his head agent, Darwin, without knowing agent Carlson had killed the wrong person, he found out when he arrived at home that he was going to be punished for failing the mission, although he thought he had carried out the mission successfully. This led him getting demoted to a desk job.


Whilst the terrorists start spreading the message that they have captured agent Carlson and his daughter the M16 agent starts planning his escape route, the terrorists then realise that they have been double crossed by not being paid for kidnapping Carlson so that he couldn't get to the interrogation.This makes the terrorists feel a vendetta towards the agent that hired them, Darwin. Instead of keeping Carlson in their captivity they choose to get onto MI6 and get a ransom for agent Carlson. Carlson escapes and frees his daughter leaving on his way to MI6.


Whilst the terrorists start coming to terms with MI6 and making negotiations they then realise that one of them has escaped leading the terrorists to panic and being mislead choosing to go after him. Carlson finds a pay phone and explains to Darwin  to meet him in a private area, Darwin agrees to meeting Carlson and him and his daughter enter the M16 headquarters, where they then rush up to the head office, knowing that Darwin is not in the building. 


Carlson arrives in the head office where he collides with a Director looking confused about why Carlson and his daughter were in such a rush. Carlson then informs him about the whole affair, telling him about his mission and the downfalls that happened in Iran, he also explained about what had just happened and also tells the director how Darwin is working against M16. After persuading the Director he finally believes him and sends out a task to find Darwin immediately.


Darwin arrives at the private location where he was supposed to be meeting Agent Carlson, he is confused that the agent isn't already at the location, shortly after this the terrorist group also arrives at the secret location where Darwin is waiting. During a confrontation the terrorists find out that it is Darwin, they then kill him for double crossing them. As the terrorists escape the task force that was set out to track down Darwin sees them escaping and manage to arrest them. 


Opening sequence outline: Early in the morning Agent Carlson is getting ready for work at his job in M16, he is feeling upset and emotional that he cant spend time with his daughter, whilstgroup of freelance terrorists are getting ready to kidnap him because they have been hired to by an anonymous source. The scenes cut between each other making the intensity of the film very high, agent Carlson being a calm and lethargic character whilst the terrorists are high speed in fast motions.
