The scene with Roberta and the security guard.


What is that noise when Roberta yells to the security guard, and why did he not come back in the room?.

reply

Just watched that scene...

Are you talking the scene just before she got grabbed in the ally way?

As she is running she yells..."taxi...taxi"
Just before that scene she's sitting in his chair and she says..."SIR"!?

"Vive la mort, vive la guerre, vive le sacre mercenaire."

reply

Yes I mean that scene. I don't know what the noise is when she yells "Sir!?", and I don't know why he doesn't come back.

I wondered that at first watch myself.
I think the sound was just the building's 'machinery' coming on, such as an air compressor.
The man was evidently guarding something, likely equipment.

As to why he didn't return:
I assume that when he went out to check to see if the man chasing Roberta was gone, the man either knocked him out or killed him.




I'd say this cloud is Cumulo Nimbus.
Didn't he discover America?
Penfold, shush.
