Plot Summary:
An agent threatens to go public and name names if he’s not reunited with the daughter he hasn’t seen for 30 years.
Romantic/Cute:
The scene with Amanda and Lee walking through the woods to the cabin is great. Amanda’s reaction to the way Lee tries to protect her is priceless!
The bean scene is also a cute scene. I love Lee’s expression as he eats his beans.
Bloopers:
Watch as Rudolph shoots at Ivan and Dimitri out the cabin window. The outside shot shows a huge piece of plywood that Rudolph is resting in rifle on. There is no plywood in the window from the inside cabin view.
Favorite Quote(s):
Amanda: Lee, isn’t this a little sudden? I mean shouldn’t we talk abut this? This could compromise our whole professional relationship.
Lee: Amanda, will you shut up, please?
_____
Lee: Do you really think that some Mickey Mouse spy course you’re taking can replace actual experience in the field?
Amanda: This isn’t from one of my courses. This is from the Cub Scout handbook. Say what you will about the scouts, but they certainly can find their way out of the woods. North is that way.

_____
Lee: Merry Christmas, Amanda.
