Spoilers ahead
The film begins at night in Kandahar Province, Afghanistan, where Johnny Talbot, the son of American Embassy superior Bill Talbot (Robert Forster), is engaged in a mission against the Taliban. Their helicopter is suddenly struck by a missile, leading to their capture by the Taliban. Tragically, the following morning, Johnny is burned alive.
In London, Kate Abbott (Milla Jovovich), an employee of the American Embassy, is haunted by the loss of her friends during the 9/11 attacks, which prompted her government work. Meanwhile, a shadowy figure known as Nash (Pierce Brosnan), the Watchmaker, receives a dangerous explosive — hidden in a brick and activated by a mobile phone. He plants it with sinister intent at a restaurant.
