All the drama with Nuria is so boring. Charles explains to her that he is a “trouble-shooter” and things that he has to do in industrial espionage can sometimes be illegal.

The Jackal gets sloppy in France — the road accident, the impromptu killing of a truck driver and a cop.

The Jackal heads to Tallinn, Estonia for location scouting. The venue for UDC’s River launch has several moving sound canopies that could complicate things.

Bianca’s body count increases as Alison is killed by her husband, Larry. It doesn’t make sense for Larry to hold Bianca’s daughter hostage at knifepoint while waiting for her to come home. It will be more effective to  just slit her throat and leave, let Bianca finds the body when she returns home.

Bianca displays a little bit of vulnerability in this episode but I still don’t like her. 😣

So, does this cabal of uber wealthy people who want UDC killed think that his software won't be released if he's dead?

So how exactly did the American woman who hired him show up in his room? Doesn't know his name or where he was? Yet just shows up? Did I miss something or is this a great big misstep in writing or...? 

Anybody know?🤔

Of course it makes sense. Larry wanted Bianca to witness it. And Larry wanted to watch Bianca witness it.

Except that Larry was too goofily incompetent to execute that plan.

It makes no sense to me that they would think that. Instead, they should use the $100MM to develop some malware that can infiltrate River.
