"Bond, Jimmy Bond" Oversight


Yves drained the bank account of the Belasmirskians. So, when Alex Goldsmith's mom tries to cash the $500,000 check Langly gave her at the end...

I highly doubt they would be cutting million dollar checks to hackers using the government's account.

They probably wanted to rip off the stocks and send that directly to the accounts linked to Jimmy/POE. Then they'd move it to government accounts, or withdraw the cash and buy the gas.

Presumably, the middle account had the funds in it to pay the hackers and do day to day scummy admin... so that link between accounts and the access to their computers (with Langley being captive and using the device they snuck in) gave Yves enough information to snag the real government account info.


Also, it's a show, and a comedy, so it doesn't really matter. All that matters is that Yves ripped people off and outsmarted the good hearted Gunmen.
