Ryan Reynolds’ character, Matt Weston, has a post at a safe house in Cape Town, South Africa.  He has not seen any action for a year, and he is waiting for his time to shine, to prove to the company that he is a well-trained agent, and that he can handle tough situations.

Weston finally has his time to prove he’s worthy for the job, when Frost is sent to his post for debriefing, but suddenly the so-called “safe house” was torn to pieces when mercenaries came to capture Frost.  Luckily Frost and Westen were able to escape.
