QUICK TAKE:
Comedy: A bumbling secret agent and his reluctant but more experienced partner try to stop a villain and his plan to use a nuclear weapon in the United States.
PLOT:
In the world of high stakes and high tech espionage, the good guys work for CONTROL, a top secret American spy agency run by the Chief (ALAN ARKIN), while the villains operate for KAOS, an organization that perpetually wants to create their similarly spelled titular state.

Maxwell Smart (STEVE CARELL) is an analyst for CONTROL, but he dreams of being a field agent like the strapping and suave Agent 23 (DWAYNE JOHNSON). Yet, the Chief finds Max too valuable in his current role, meaning he must continue working alongside the likes of young staffers Bruce (MASI OKA) and Lloyd (NATE TORRENCE) who similarly must contend with the hazing and belittling comments from veterans Larabee (DAVID KOECHNER) and Agent 91 (TERRY CREWS).

Max gets his chance, however, when KAOS ransacks CONTROL headquarters and compromises the identity of their agents. That is, except for Agent 99 (ANNE HATHAWAY) who's recently had a complete physical makeover. Noting his inexperience and not liking his cocksureness, she reluctantly pairs with Max.

And not too soon as KAOS agent Siegfried (TERENCE STAMP), along with his right-hand man Shtarker (KEN DAVITIAN) and henchman Dalip (DALIP SINGH), has set his nefarious plan into motion. Having stolen nuclear material, he's manufacturing a number of bombs with which he plans to blackmail the U.S. With time running out, Max and Agent 99 try to work together to find and stop hm.

WILL KIDS WANT TO SEE IT?
If they're fans of someone in the cast, they might, but it's unlikely most know of the original TV show.
WHY THE MPAA RATED IT: PG-13
For some rude humor, action violence and language.
CAST AS ROLE MODELS:
  • STEVE CARELL plays an analyst at a top-secret U.S. government spy agency who longs to be a field agent. He finally gets his chance, but his lack of experience ends up belying his cocksureness, although he usually ends up succeeding (often just by dumb luck) at whatever task is at hand.
  • ANNE HATHAWAY plays a veteran agent who reluctantly pairs with Max, unhappy with his cocksure attitude and lack of field experience. She's proficient at defending herself and battles various bad guys.
  • DWAYNE JOHNSON plays another CONTROL agent with a stellar reputation for getting the job done, but he has several skeletons in his closet.
  • ALAN ARKIN plays the CONTROL chief who reluctantly assigns Max as an agent when he doesn't have any other recourse. He uses some profanity and is prone to flying off the handle physically, attacking others.
  • TERENCE STAMP plays a no-nonsense KAOS agent who wants to blackmail the U.S. government with nuclear weapons he's manufactured. He's demeaning to Dalip and is responsible for the deaths of others.
  • DAVID KOECHNER and TERRY CREWS play CONTROL agents who enjoy hazing new hires and making fun of Max.
  • KEN DAVITIAN plays Siegfried's right-hand man who assists him with his scheme.
  • MASI OKA and NATE TORRENCE play young and nervous CONTROL analysts and inventors who work with Max.
  • DALIP SINGH plays Siegfried's hulking henchman who battles Max and 99 but eventually tires of his boss belittling him.

    HOW OTHERS RATED THIS MOVIE


    Curious if this title is entertaining, any good, and/or has any artistic merit?
    Then read OUR TAKE of this film.


    (Note: The "Our Take" review of this title examines the film's artistic merits and does not take into account any of the possibly objectionable material listed below).


    OUR WORD TO PARENTS:
    The following is a brief summary of the content found in this comedy that's been rated PG-13. Profanity consists of at least 3 "s" words, while other expletives and colorful phrases are also uttered. Sexually related dialogue and humor are present, as is the sight of a man's bare butt in his torn pants, while varying amounts of cleavage are seen, as is a woman in a tight dress.

    Violence consists of several non-graphic shooting deaths, attempts on others' lives with various weapons, and lots of action-style fighting and striking of others. Some explosives cause property damage.

    Some of that has slightly bloody results, but more notable is a brief, but graphic vomiting scene. Some younger kids might find some of the action and close calls as tense or unsettling, while others might be enticed to imitate the stunts, actions and/or sayings and mannerisms.

    Various characters have varying degrees of bad attitudes, while there's brief drinking and smoking.

    If you're still concerned about the film and its appropriateness for yourself or anyone else in your home who may be interested in seeing it, we suggest that you take a closer look at our detailed listings for more specific information regarding the film's content.

    For those concerned with bright flashes of light on the screen, there's some of that later in the film from sparks and explosions in a building.

    For those prone to visually induced motion sickness, there's a spin-around camera shot late in the film.



    ALCOHOL OR DRUG USE
  • Tired of talking to Max on the plane, Agent 99 asks, "Where is that damn drink cart?"
  • Miscellaneous people have champagne.
  • BLOOD/GORE
  • Max pours some milk from a carton and it comes out in thick chunks.
  • During some paintball practice, Max notes that Agent 23 is bleeding (presumably through his shirt but we didn't see it), but he says that's from a previous injury and that if his blood pressure goes up, it seeps out.
  • The Chief has a red bump on his head after Max hits him there with a fire extinguisher (mistakenly thinking he's a bad guy).
  • We see a little blood on a person's head and another person's clothed leg when both are separately shot.
  • To be allowed into an airplane bathroom (that has a special CONTROL escape chute), Max announces that he has to "squeeze the lemon" (urinate). Once in there and reacting to non scatological things, people outside the bathroom mistake what he's saying (about being unable to get an arrow out of his foot, etc.) as scatological comments.
  • A man flushes a toilet and Max then goes into another open stall to do the same. We then hear him repeatedly stop and start urinating so that he can eavesdrop on some villains talking in the bathroom (he stops urinating when they start talking and vice-versa).
  • While having to walk through a sewer, Max complains about the "rat poop" (not seen).
  • About a small radio he swallowed, Max tells Agent 99 he can get it back for her, but that she might not want it.
  • Agent 99 might have a slightly bloody nose while fighting Dalip.
  • While in an acrobatic move, a person on a plane vomits into a barf bag and we see it all over his face as well as spilling out of that bag.
  • We see a few drops of blood on Agent 23's shirt (from a previous but unseen wound that's now seeping).
  • DISRESPECTFUL/BAD ATTITUDE
  • The various KAOS agents have bad attitudes, especially for trying to kill Max, Agent 99 and others.
  • A man sees a woman pass by and tells another man, "Look at the size of that one, get my harpoon."
  • Larabee refers to Bruce and Lloyd as a "two nerd pileup" and then slams them together.
  • After Larabee is sending or receiving text messages on a cell phone during Max's presentation (and makes a sarcastic comment about the length of them), Agent 23 grabs the phone and purposefully breaks it.
  • Larebee mocks Max during paint gun practice, calling him "Maxi-pad" and "Maxine." He also says he should put a collar on him and call Max "my bitch."
  • Some viewers might not like a jokey flashback to Max being fat and unable to make his way through an obstacle course, including being unable to scale a wall and weighing down a zip line.
  • Siegfried is stealing nuclear material to create nuclear bombs to be used against the U.S.
  • After Larabee mocks Agent 23 and won't agree to fix the copier he jammed, Agent 23 uses a stapler to staple a piece of paper to Larabee's head.
  • Referring to Max, a Russian man tells another he hates the "Yankee assholes."
  • After Agent 99 lies to a suspect that Max is her deaf chauffeur, Max does an exaggerated, stereotypical voice of a deaf or hearing impaired person.
  • Some skinny young women mockingly laugh at an obese woman when Max chooses to dance with her. When Max tells her he lost 150 pounds, she says she has as well (an intended joke on the film's part since she's still very overweight). After she shows her stuff on the dance floor and wins an unofficial dance-off, she gives "the finger" to those young women in passing.
  • A villain refers to Max as Agent 99's "retard stable boy."
  • Agent 99 isn't happy to be paired with Max and lets him know that (although she eventually changes her tune).
  • Being demeaning to Dalip who he views as a simpleton, Siegfried states, "Oh my God, it understands."
  • Siegfried tries to blackmail the U.S. for $200 billion or else he'll release nuclear bomb codes to other villains.
  • Upset about his attitude, the Chief runs and jumps/dives over a table, knocking the Vice President to the floor.
  • Some viewers might not like the obvious bashing and impersonation of President Bush (played here by James Caan), including a school kid telling him, "You'd suck as my teacher" (during a book reading moment to a class, a la 9/11). There's also a jab about the pronunciation of "nuclear," etc.
  • A double-agent holds his gun on Agent 99 while taking her hostage.
  • Some viewers might not like a visual joke of Max holding onto a line pulling a suicide prevention advertisement banner behind a small plane.
  • Siegfried again condescendingly refers to Dalip, calling him "bright eyes." Finally having had enough, Dalip then kicks Siegfried out of their moving vehicle, and we see Siegfried flying off a bridge toward a body of water below.
  • When a new agent shows up for work, Larabee and Agent 91 try to haze him.
  • FRIGHTENING SCENES
  • Scenes listed under "Violence" could be unsettling or suspenseful to younger viewers and/or those with low tolerance levels for such material, but probably few if any others.
  • For those afraid of heights, Max accidentally activates a trap door in a plane's bathroom, with him falling out before grabbing his parachute. Agent 99 then comes in, realizes that, and falls out to rescue him (with a chute). That's followed by Dalip also falling out and then catching them, cutting their chute with a huge knife. Agent 99 then flies over and cuts his chute, followed by him coming back over and grabbing both of them. Max kicks him in the crotch, as does Agent 99, but that does no good. With no other option, Agent 99 plants a kiss on him, distracting Dalip. He then plummets through a barn and smashes down onto a pig, with both going through the floor (Agent 99 and Max land safely with their other chute).
  • As Max makes his way through a room filled with security laser beams, Agent 99 notes a rodent crawling up his back and then down inside his jacket and eventually across his clothed crotch area. During this, he starts squirming and thus parts of his clothed are singed by those lasers (those afraid of rodents might not like the scene despite being played for comedy).
  • Max goes to step out of a small plane the Chief is flying, but slips and must grab the landing wheel (with the Chief turning the plane sideways to help him in that position). We next see him hanging onto the line that's holding a banner behind the plane and then banging into vehicles when he swings down just above the highway.
  • The CONTROL agents become worried when they learn that the nuclear bomb is armed and will be detonated when the last note of "Ode to Joy" is played at a concert. They all race to the concert hall, with the Chief punching a CIA agent so that they can enter, and Max tackling the old conductor before he signals that last note.
  • GUNS/WEAPONS
  • Handguns/Machine guns/Shotgun/Explosives/Mini-crossbow/Mini flamethrower/Knife: Carried and/or used to threaten, wound or kill others and/or cause property damage. See "Violence" for details.
  • A receptionist at CONTROL shows a lot of cleavage. When Agent 23 enters, he does a playful shooting gesture with his hand in her direction. She then catches the imaginary bullet and suggestively places that down into her cleavage.
  • A man carries a machine gun.
  • Max is shown that his pocketknife also contains a flamethrower and mini-crossbow.
  • Guards carry machine guns.
  • We see a factory assembling nuclear bombs.
  • S.W.A.T. members carry automatic weapons.
  • Thinking he's a double-agent, Agent 23 aims his gun at Max's head.
  • IMITATIVE BEHAVIOR
  • Phrases: "Holy sh*t," "I am so sexually threatened right now," "D*ck-wads," "Two nerd pileup," "Frickin agents," "Next time use your own damn phone," "Leathery hag, "Fat cow," "Ungrateful whore," "Ka-frickin-boom," "Maxi-pad" (for Maxwell), "My bitch," "What is that ungodly smell?" (followed by the answer: "Fear"), "Oh my word," "The cone's the shizzle," "I'm so happy, this is the best day of my life" (said in a giddy, exaggerated fashion), "That is a sucker punch to the gonads," "Where is that damn drink cart?" "Oh wow," "I believe you just shattered my coccyx," "I'm just a woman with a dusty old uterus," "I have to squeeze the lemon" (urinate), "Ball-sack" (scrotum), "Mother of pearl," "Morons," "Yankee assholes," "That's CIA crap," "Her retard stable boy," "How did you screw this up?" "Would you believe..?" "Is such a bitch," "Kick ass," "What a douche," "Missed it by that much," "Oh my God, it understands," "Right after I kick your ass," "That guy's insane," "Muffins of mass destruction," "You'd suck as my teacher," "Freak show expression," "Old timer," "You idiot," "What the hell were you thinking?" "Damn it to hell" and "Bright eyes."
  • The action and other stunts might be enticing for some kids to imitate.
  • After Larabee mocks Agent 23 and won't agree to fix the copier he jammed, Agent 23 uses a stapler to staple a piece of paper to Larabee's head (a robot agent later does the same thing to Larabee).
  • After Agent 99 lies to a suspect that Max is her deaf chauffeur, Max does an exaggerated, stereotypical voice of a deaf or hearing impaired person.
  • A woman gives "the finger" to some other women.
  • Some kids may be enticed to imitate the bit lifted from the TV show where Max starts out by saying "Would you believe..?" and then states some made-up fact, usually associated with a high number of something. When the other person says no, he then lowers the number and quality of the noun, and then continues to do that.
  • Agent 99 kisses Dalip to distract him (while fighting him), and Max later does the same to a double-agent for the same reason.
  • JUMP SCENES
  • None.
  • MUSIC (SCARY/TENSE)
  • A moderate amount of action-oriented, some suspenseful, and some heavily dramatic music plays in the film.
  • MUSIC (INAPPROPRIATE)
  • None.
  • PROFANITY
  • 3 "s" words (1 in subtitles), 1 slang term using male genitals ("d*ck-wad"), another made-up one for female ones (we didn't catch the word), 6 damns, 3 asses (1 used with "hole"), 3 hells, 1 crap, 1 S.O.B., 6 uses of "Oh my God" and 1 use each of "For God's sakes" and "Oh my Lord."
  • SEX/NUDITY
  • A receptionist at CONTROL shows a lot of cleavage. When Agent 23 enters, he does a playful shooting gesture with his hand in her direction. She then catches the imaginary bullet and suggestively places that down into her cleavage.
  • Agent 99 shows some cleavage.
  • Referring to something unrelated, Max states, "That is a sucker punch to the gonads."
  • Agent 99 states, "I'm just a woman with a dusty old uterus," after Max made a comment about her eggs drying up (when talking of their fake marriage and why they don't have kids).
  • Returning from the bathroom, Max tells Agent 99 there was a guy in there who was hot. She takes that in a homosexual way, but Max says the man was literally radioactive (but then jokingly adds that he was handsome in a rugged way, etc.).
  • After accidentally rendering himself unconscious, Max wakes up to see Agent 99 in a sexy strapless dress with a high-cut slit (she shows a lot of leg when propping it up on something). Max then realizes he's in a tux, meaning she changed his clothes, but he notes he's in boxers and not the briefs he was earlier wearing (and he comments on not liking going "free-bird").
  • Some classic-style statues show bare breasts.
  • Various women show varying amounts of cleavage at a social event (the obese woman dancing with Max shows a lot, and he grabs her clothed butt after watching Agent 99 place her leg up alongside her dance partner). Since Max was snooping around the mansion while Agent 99 was distracting the owner by dancing with him, she asks Max if he saw anything while she was doing that. He replies that he did, during the dance lift move the guy performed on her (the joke being that's not what she was asking about). He then jokes about her liking to show her (made-up noun referring to her genitals or butt).
  • Agent 99 shows a lot of leg in her cocktail dress and then even more when she tears off part of the bottom (to allow her easier movement through a room filled with a security laser field). As she contorts her body to avoid those beams, she asks Max if he's starring at her butt. He says no, but that he was before and is now doing so again. As her butt goes into the air to get around those beams, he tries to avoid looking at that. After she's made it through them, she tells him to avoid touching any as they'll cut whatever comes into contact with them. He replies that's another reason boxers were a bad idea (regarding an earlier scene listed above).
  • We briefly see a miscellaneous couple kissing, with his hands on the sides of her bare midriff.
  • Max goes into a shop and delivers coded language with an older woman who's in on the ploy. He comments on looking for something hot, with her saying she already has a boyfriend but could make an exception. When he keeps pressing, she replies that the sex (or sacks) in the back is/are very comfortable.
  • A visual, gay-related joke is made when a bystander sees Max trying to move an unconscious Shtarker to another part of the room, but the man's view makes it appear as if Max is humping Shtarker from behind (both are clothed).
  • When Dalip throws Max onto Agent 99, Max lands on top of her with his hand accidentally ending up on her clothed breast.
  • As Agent 99 turns around and her robe briefly flies open, we get a split-second and partial view of her in her bra and panties.
  • When Max learns that Agent 99 dated Agent 23, he states, "I am so sexually threatened right now."
  • As Max struggles with a double-agent in a moving vehicle, he tells Agent 99 (who's cuffed) that he has a knife in his front pocket. She uses her foot to try to retrieve it, with him then giggling and telling her that's not his knife that she's moving with her foot.
  • After saving the day in a concert hall, Max is unaware that the seat of his pants is ripped. When he turns around, we see his bare butt, and others see the same (and react adversely) when he bends over to take a bow (we don't see the nudity again).
  • SMOKING
  • A few miscellaneous people smoke in separate scenes (including with a cigar).
  • TENSE FAMILY SCENES
  • Larabee briefly references a custody battle and related disparaging comments.
  • TOPICS TO TALK ABOUT
  • Secret spy agencies.
  • Terrorists and the threat of them using nuclear bombs.
  • Veteran employees hazing new ones.
  • VIOLENCE
  • A person receives a mild shock from an electric fence.
  • Larabee refers to Bruce and Lloyd as a "two nerd pileup" and then slams them together.
  • After Larabee is sending or receiving text messages on a cell phone during Max's presentation (and makes a sarcastic comment about the length of them), Agent 23 grabs the phone and purposefully breaks it.
  • Siegfried shoots one man dead (no blood) and then remotely detonates explosives that blow up a building.
  • Agent 23 and Max battle others during some paint gun agent practice, with various people hit with the paintball "bullets." During this, Agent 23 picks up one opponent and runs with him as a shield (paintball bullets hit that man) before slamming him into a wall and others into each other. Larabee is hit in the clothed crotch with a paintball bullet and Agent 23 shoots others with the same, while also delivering martial arts blows to the rest.
  • Max turns around on a sidewalk and Agent 99 accidentally runs into him, knocking him down (she also goes down). Moments later, a man accidentally rolls a filled dolly over Max's toes.
  • Max returns to CONTROL headquarters to find the place badly damaged. Agent 99 then holds her gun on Max, thinking he's responsible for that attack.
  • Max turns on a fire hose, with the resultant pressure causing it to hit and knock around many people (who he thinks are villains) and break some panes of glass. Max then uses a fire extinguisher to hit what he believes is an attacker, but really is the Chief (who's hit on the head).
  • We see a brief view of two agents being assassinated (both falling face-first into their food), while another is shot in the leg. He then limps away only to have a bus suddenly strike him.
  • Onboard a plane, Max spots gum on his shoe and thus uses a match to try to remove it. Another passenger sees that, thinks he's a terrorist and everyone reacts, including an air marshal who tackles him to the floor.
  • Max tries to use a mini-crossbow (held in his mouth) to shoot off some handcuffs, but he misses every time, with some shots ricocheting and hitting him in various places. That includes into the top of his shoe, through his ear and into his cheek, and the back of his neck (he tries to pull out the one in his cheek and his skin stretches from that).
  • Max accidentally activates a trap door in a plane's bathroom, with him falling out before grabbing his parachute. Agent 99 then comes in, realizes that, and falls out to rescue him (with a chute). That's followed by Dalip also falling out and then catching them, cutting their chute with a huge knife. Agent 99 then flies over and cuts his chute, followed by him coming back over and grabbing both of them. Max kicks him in the crotch, as does Agent 99, but that does no good. With no other option, Agent 99 plants a kiss on him, distracting Dalip. He then plummets through a barn and smashes down onto a pig, with both going through the floor (Agent 99 and Max land safely with their other chute). When the local farmer comes in carrying a rifle, the pig suddenly shoots out of the hole, hitting the farmer and blasting him through the barn wall.
  • To prove he's not ready to be an agent, Agent 99 grabs the gun from Max's hand, punches him, and then slaps him.
  • After Larabee mocks Agent 23 and won't agree to fix the copier he jammed, Agent 23 uses a stapler to staple a piece of paper to Larabee's head.
  • Max accidentally breathes in a knock-out dart, leaving him unconscious.
  • Agent 99 uses explosive dental floss to blow open an entry point into a room.
  • As Max makes his way through a room filled with security laser beams, Agent 99 notes a rodent crawling up his back and then down inside his jacket and eventually across his clothed crotch area. During this, he starts squirming and thus parts of his clothed are singed by those lasers.
  • Max overturns a large table just in time as some villains shoot at him and Agent 99, with Max returning fire. Another bad guy slips on some spilled beads on the floor, while Max and Agent 99 then battle various villains. Max grabs one man's gun, but he punches Max in the gut, followed by all sorts of fighting with punches and kicks (most delivered by Agent 99), and Max hitting one guy over the head with a vase. The lead villain then prepares to shoot the two of them with a machine gun, but Max shoots him dead instead.
  • When Max talks loudly into a communication device, Agent 99 instinctively rears up, but hits her head in doing so.
  • To escape, Max pushes a table that hits Shtarker in the crotch, followed by Max hitting him a few times.
  • A machine gun is fired at Agent 99, but she shoots several men and hits another.
  • Needing a retina scan, Max tries to move Shtarker's head up to the reading device, but ends up slamming his head against that several times.
  • Agent 99 kicks a bad guy.
  • A machine gun is fired at Max and Agent 99, with him shooting back.
  • Explosives are used to damage a factory.
  • Dalip throws a door that hits and knocks down both Max and Agent 99. Max then hits the hulking man repeatedly, but that does the latter no harm. He then picks up Max, with Agent 99 hitting Dalip with a pole, but that does him no harm. He then throws Max onto Agent 99 who he picks up moments later by the throat and barely misses punching her (hitting the wall behind her head instead) when Max jumps onto him. Dalip then purposefully falls back and lands hard on Max, crushing him. Moments later, Dalip picks up a large air conditioning or similar unit and is ready to hit them with it. Max talks him down, with Dalip then throwing that machinery aside. It falls a long distance and smashes the car Shtarker was about to get into. With the building they're on exploding beneath them, Dalip takes a rope and swings over to the adjacent building, smashing through the glass on one floor. Max and Agent 99 then try to do the same, but hit the wall between the windows instead. Machine guns are then fired at them and they fall toward the street below, but their rope stops them just a foot or so above the pavement/sidewalk.
  • Upset about his attitude, the Chief runs and jumps/dives over a table, knocking the Vice President to the floor.
  • Doing so for a different reason, Max tells two guards to come into his holding cell so that he can make them his girlfriends. Two enter, with one grabbing Max so the other can punch him in the gut, followed by one kicking him on the floor.
  • Max drives an old car out of a museum display and smashes through the front doors, followed by driving down the steps.
  • Max purposefully throws a fake punch to take out Bruce, while Lloyd ends up fainting and hitting the floor before Max's next acted-out part. Later, Lloyd faints and hits the floor hard again.
  • A miscellaneous car hits another.
  • The Chief pushes a CIA agent.
  • A double-agent holds his gun on Agent 99 while taking her hostage.
  • With the Chief as his passenger, Max drives through a fence, across a golf driving range (where people purposefully aim at and riddle the vehicle with golf balls), through a shack, and then crash into something with a cone coming through the windshield and stopping just inches from impaling the Chief.
  • Max goes to step out of a small plane the Chief is flying, but slips and must grab the landing wheel (with the Chief turning the plane sideways to help him in that position). We next see him hanging onto the line that's holding a banner behind the plane and then banging into vehicles when he swings down just above the highway.
  • When Max then ends up next to a double-agent's vehicle and tries to rescue Agent 99 inside, that man shoots at him and tries to crush him against another vehicle (ripping off the door). While cuffed in the back, Agent 99 kicks the double-agent, and Max tries to come back into the moving vehicle, but the double-agent punches him and the two struggle at the side of the vehicle. Agent 99 eventually gets Max's pocketknife, with its small flamethrower then catching the SUV on fire (with the three still in/on it). That vehicle then crashes through the side jersey wall and ends up on railroad tracks, while The Chief's plane is finally free and he angles it just in time to miss some bridge towers.
  • The Chief then tries to fly down to make a rooftop rescue from the still moving SUV, but the double-agent grabs a foot and he and Max then fight while Agent 99 dangles from the side of the vehicle. The double-agent has Max by the throat, and with no alternative (and remembering Agent 99 doing the same earlier with Dalip), Max plants a kiss on the surprised double-agent. He then hits and kicks him.
  • Max and Agent 99 then end up being dragged behind the SUV on a banner (on the train tracks), with Max then freeing Agent 99. An approaching train then smashes into the SUV, causing it to explode, presumably killing the double-agent inside it, and for a moment, Agent 99 thinks Max is dead (but he then walks up).
  • The CONTROL agents become worried when they learn that the nuclear bomb is armed and will be detonated when the last note of "Ode to Joy" is played at a concert. They all race to the concert hall, with the Chief punching a CIA agent so that they can enter, and Max tackling the old conductor before he signals that last note.
  • Siegfried again condescendingly refers to Dalip, calling him "bright eyes." Finally having had enough, Dalip then kicks Siegfried out of their moving vehicle, and we see Siegfried flying off a bridge toward a body of water below.
  • A little dog bites Max on the leg.
  • When a new agent shows up for work, Larabee and Agent 91 try to haze him. When he won't fall for that and things get testy, Larabee tries to punch him, but hurts his hand as we hear a metal clang sound. The new agent (who turns out to be a robot) then staples a piece of paper to Larabee's head.
  • A large sliding door smashes Max against a wall, and we then see a small crossbow arrow in his face.
