The hitperson is the only competent employee left at Boeing.

That guy is booked through year end now.

Overbooked. This is the airline industry we're talking about.

He’s always taking the train to his missions, that’s the reason for the long time between the 2 kills

Are you telling us that there is a chance some whistlebowers have a chance to live into 2025.

Believe or not still not enough time for FAA and other fed soups to do their job

He's out there playing whack a mole

You could just say ‘assassin’. “Hitperson” makes it sound like some HR-designated position, awkwardly titled in some neutral, milquetoast way as not to offend anyone.

That was intentional, I'm happy someone noticed.

Like the title of a Wes Anderson short, lol

It’s just a single shot of Bill Murray driving a car on a highway. He’s filmed from the passenger seat, and he’s telling a story of his dad, who worked as an engineer designing jet engines. And he’s all proud and going on and on.

And as he keeps talking, and as he keeps driving, you keep seeing shots of highway signs showing that you’re driving through rural Maryland on your way to Washington DC. You keep driving and he keeps telling a story about his father and how proud he was and eventually comes out that he worked for Boeing.

And you keep driving and he keeps telling a story and eventually you pull up in front of the building in Washington DC, and he gets out and the camera keeps pointing at the driver seat, but he walks out of frame and he walks into the building and you can hear some screaming in a couple gunshots and then cut to the credits.
