upwardly mobile assassin
24 October 2023
Big stars abound in this story, beginning with Robert Vaughn of Uncle and Mag 7, in an office, where it looks like the men are just normal businessmen.

However, upwardly mobile Vaughn is told he can move up with an assassination against a rogue number 2 in the organization. #2 is out to assassinate #1. Now how would it look for Largo to assassinate Blowhard (I don't know how to spell the famous Bond villain's name)?

So, the boss gives Vaughn a gun and a location. There he meets none other than wisecracking Walter Mattheau before he was a grumpy old man, before he was part of an odd couple.

Mattheau offers Vaughn a deal to be part of a new organization and really step up as the new number 2. Can he get away with it?

You probably won't see this switch coming.
