1999
The Angels, Dylan Sanders, Natalie Thompson, and Alex Munday, are tasked by their unseen boss, Charlie Townsend, to rescue kidnapped software genius Eric Knox from the ruthless Roger Corwin. After successfully extracting Knox, the Angels discover that Knox, aided by his associate Vivian Wu and the assassin known as the Thin Man, is actually the mastermind behind the kidnapping, seeking revenge on Corwin and Charlie. Knox kidnaps their handler, John Bosley, and attempts to kill the Angels, revealing his plan to use a satellite system to pinpoint and assassinate Charlie. The Angels track Knox to Miami, where they infiltrate an arena to prevent him from activating his deadly system. In a climactic confrontation, the Angels rescue Bosley, defeat Vivian and the Thin Man, and prevent Knox from carrying out his revenge, with Charlie's true identity remaining a mystery as the Angels celebrate their victory on the beach.

Who told you that, my idiotic henchman? Do you think I tell him ANYTHING that's confidential? THIS is what triggers that bomb. So if you'll kindly step away, I'll refrain from killing both of us.
I lied to you Jason. I'm not a secretary. And that wasn't Charlie. I'm actually here to stop a madman from killing everyone in this building. Would it be okay if we talked later?

I'm so sorry, but I have to go. I can't explain. This is my cell phone number. Please call me tomorrow. Please. I'm sorry.
Maybe. Maybe I did. But why should YOU kill all these people? If you hate me so much, just shoot ME. Just shoot me, Eric.
Great work, angels. You'll be happy to know you received another presidential commendation. Enjoy your vacation, angels.
