Plot Summary:
After someone tries to kill him, Lee plays dead to investigate the assassinations of several agents.

Romantic/Cute:

  • I always loved the scene where Lee walks into Amanda’s family room and Amanda is overjoyed he is alive. Lots of hugs and smiles.

    Bloopers:

  • As Sinclair steps out of the bathroom to capture Lee, he slips on the rug in Lee’s bedroom and almost falls.
  • Russell Sinclair and Lee duel in Lee’s living room as the fuse is burning on the floor. It looks like this scene took a couple takes because you see the flame of the burning fuse, about 12 inches of previously burned carpet and then the rest of the unburned fuse.

    Lee: Hey now look man, me and the chick here paid for some privacy and we expect it, so beat it huh. You tell Eddie, uh, the alcoholic to put in some ear plugs if he don’t like it.

    Amanda: Do you know what it must take to offend that man’s sense of decency? I’m so glad I was the one to do it.
