Plot
On a cargo ship, two workers open a container with toxic waste and die from fumes. The captain, knowing the cargo, disposes of their bodies. Meanwhile, Frank Martin, returning from Miami to the French Riviera, unsuccessfully fishes with Tarconi, who gets a call about a black Audi A8 that bypassed customs and police. In Odesa, Ukrainian Environmental Agency Minister Leonid Tomilenko receives a threat from corrupt Ecocorp official Jonas Johnson to resume negotiations.
