I am often curious how some guys get the best out of any situation. Even when they are holed out in a corner with apparently no options, they not only come out of the tight situation but convert it to their advantage. One such guy is our hero. He is a tobacco lobbyist, who is very good in smooth talking against anti-tobacco campaigns. He along with a weapon and an alcohol lobbyists form the MOD (Merchants of Death) squad.
Look at the situations that he gets into. He is cornered in a live TV show with a patient who has just recovered from tobacco addiction. He is assigned to silence a bad mouthing former Marlboro Man, who is very shrewd and can't be fooled easily. He gets involved with a reported who back stabs by revealing his game plan. He gets kidnapped and almost killed by forced nicotine patch abuse. From all these problems, he emerges a little scathed but ultimately successful.
There is no soul-searching on moral correctness of the protagonist. Just like the negotiator in "Unthinkable", he is just doing his job with a monk-like detachment. His son admires his adventures and inherits his legacy by winning in the school debate competition. I was also admiring all along making mental comparisons with similar personalities I have met. Their knack of getting successful still eludes my tiny little intelligence.
