All Bets Are Off | SPIES ARE FOREVER Act 1 Part 6

RICHMAN'S CASINO, MONTE CARLO - The Following Evening - Clean-shaven and sharply dressed, Agent Mega goes undercover to retrieve the bomb from the mysterious Russian. Unfortunately for him, a boisterous American gets in the way.

With a license to kill and the voice of an angel, Mega must stay alive, complete the mission, and prove to his enemies that the deadliest weapon of all is a little song and dance.
