   The hand that grabs Philip pulls him into the mirror, then pushes him back down to the floor. As he lies there in the broken glass, the Assassin climbs through into the bathroom. Philip pleads for his life, pleas which go unheeded by the Assassin, who finished his job with a shot to the head...

   As Philip's body falls to the floor, the Asassin is caught in the glare of a beam of golden light which emerges from Philip's chest, shooting off into the distance and uniting with other golden lines of light.

In seconds the lights fade and the Assassin is brought back to reality, where an urgent Michael is trying to contact him via his communicator.

  The job done, the Assassin fades out of the scene...
