In the background, we see a BIG BOSS MAN surrounded by enthusiastic women and a few bodyguards. Close up of the man’s face, he is clearly disengaged the company he keeps. He says nothing. His distant thoughts are suddenly interrupted as he notices SPY 1 from across the room. He turns his head ever so slightly but very quickly.
