Chapter 193
[Jason Bourne blew up a car to fill the house with smoke so the sniper couldn't find him.]
[As he did so, Jason Bourne slowly approached the sniper. He was holding a shotgun that he had found inside the house.]
The tension grew, and the audience watched the confrontation.
[The sniper was very good at his job and kept Jason Bourne at bay, almost killing him. Jason moved in and successfully shot the sniper].
["Tell me who you are!" Jason took the moment to ask the bleeding sniper. He was very curious to know his identity.]
[Treadstone...] That was the last thing the sniper said before he died.
[Jason Bourne was disappointed that he got nothing from the man. Suddenly, the phone in the sniper's pocket rings.]
[Jason answered the call and spoke to Conklin, the leader of Treadstone, but even he was clueless about the High Table and the Fraternity.]
[Acting like he knew what he was doing, Jason Bourne hid the fact that he had lost his memory and convinced Conklin to meet him].
[After dealing with the sniper, Jason returned to Marie Kreutz and convinced her to leave. He promised to meet her when everything was over.]
[Knowing that Jason Bourne would be prepared for the meeting, Conklin assembled a team to meet him. While waiting for Jason Bourne to show up, some people walked down the street. One of them was Director Kazir Grey, holding a cup of coffee as he said he hadn't slept much these days].
The audience laughed. A very small comedy in this serious action movie.
[The protagonist didn't let things go according to plan. He waited for the right time, the moment when Conklin was unguarded.]
[That time came, and Jason Bourne began to interrogate Conklin. Conklin told him everything he knew. Jason Bourne realized his code name was Cain and his mission was to kill Wombosi, the African dictator. However, Jason Bourne failed to kill the man because Wombosi was with a child at the time. He was shot and fell into the sea.]
["Wombosi was already killed by the Treadstone after your failure." Conklin added]
[Then dozens of Treadstone members attacked Jason Bourne. The confrontation was swift but deadly. Jason Bourne even fell to the stairs and suffered injuries.]
[Conklin ran and tried to escape, but was killed by one of the Fraternity assassins].
["Wombosi stopped working with us and we used Treadstone to solve that problem." The man muttered. He sent dozens of assassins after Jason Bourne to wipe out all evidence.]
The credits were not for the audience. It was for the production companies. Those credits were for expanding the resume of the crew. These credits were advertisements for the crew members, so they could get jobs.
Although its real purpose was to show appreciation for the people who worked to make the movie, simple as that.
Even if the credits were over ten minutes long, the filmmakers would still add them at the end of the movie and show over a hundred names because it was the right thing to do. These hundreds of people deserve credit even if they were not actors or actresses.
Fortunately, after two minutes of waiting, the post-credits scene began.
"Nice! This is what I've been waiting for!"
The audience became quiet again and watched the short scene.
[On the screen, dozens of people were standing in front of the graves. An Arab man was sprinkling dust on the graves. He was the man who appeared in the post-credits scene in Taken, the one who said, "The High Table will never forget."]
[The Arabic man turned and faced the black man in the suit (Morgan Freeman)].
When the audience recognized Morgan Freeman, they started screaming.
["I assume you understand why I called you?"]
["Of course," the black man grinned. "I will serve, I will be of service."]
The movie ended right there and the suspenseful music began again. People clapped one last time before leaving the theater.
Billy and Wallace came out of the theater and found a store selling movie merchandise. They saw gold coins and decided to buy them for the third time...
At the Regal Cinema, Kazir Grey and the rest of the cast of The Bourne Identity bowed their heads and thanked the audience. After that, there was an hour-long interview about the making of The Bourne Identity.

[Author's Note: After reading the summary of Bounce Identity that I wrote, I further realized how much I hate writing summaries.]
[Author's note: I intend to make "Wanted" the Avengers of this universe, where the three protagonists (John Wick, Bryan Mills and Jason Bourne) will appear and gather. The next gathering of the three protagonists will be in John Wick 3, although I'm not sure about that yet].
