Rather, Alexei has his eye on alleged new intel sent by The Rook, an American sleeper agent.
Dreykov plays dumb, giving the game away immediately when he covers the file containing the intel.
If you insist on lying, you don’t have to make it so obvious.
With that, Alexei heads to the States, assuming the alter ego “Bob Toledo” on arrival.
The reason for Alexei’s intervention then becomes clear.
The two fight until the sound of police sirens scares them off and sends them running into the woods.
