I first thought of Ted Turner’s quote from long ago when I saw that agent get out of the way to allow the armed would be assassin Cole Tomas Allen to rush past him on his mission.
“Lead. Follow. Or get out of the way.”
Note: I had just watched the 1939 movie The Tower of London. Boris Karloff as the henchman to the Basil Rathbone heir to the throne. Along torturing some people as part of his job he then watched as an enemy was held by officers down the hall, planning in advance to stop him if he somehow broke loose. He did break loose and as he ran down the hall Karloff put out his leg and tripped him. I thought that was what the agent should have done.
Great movie.🍿
