* TheChessmaster: Anson gets Larry out of prison, hires him without revealing himself, has Larry kidnap him and put a bomb on a random woman, and force Michael to help him break into the British consulate. Anson kills the woman early so Fiona will be motivated to finally kill Larry. Since the consulate is protected with bullet proof glass, she has to use a bomb, and Anson set up several other bombs to kill other people, framing her for blackmail. Now he's got leverage Michael can't resist. Michael would gladly sacrifice himself, but never Fiona.
