Still unlicensed and under scrutiny, Michael is forced into action by Darius’s even more volatile wife, the infamous international con artist Sonia Kincaid (Hayek). The trio get in over their heads in a global plot and soon find that they are all that stands between Europe and a vengeful and powerful madman (Banderas)." (Official synopsis)
