Te Meanwhile, CIA Agent Alec Hayes (Robert Rownd) unsuccessfully dispatches a hitman to assassinate Alexander and thus prevent his team from carrying on with their illegal mission. After their layover in Thailand, the team moves to Manila, where Sonia and Tom meet with Orsetti, while the rest stake out. Halfway into the sale, Sonia and Tom strike at Orsetti and a shootout ensues, followed by a car chase. Orsetti’s car is overturned, and Tom shoots down a helicopter piloted by one of Orsetti’s henchmen with a bazooka. Alexander kills a struggling Orsetti.
