George opens his eyes and finds himself in a hospital bed in Dubai. Evan, Scott, and Fiona are in front of him. They were asking him if he was fine or not. George says, “I’m good”.

George: Where are we now?

Fiona: We’re in Dubai?

George: Where are Dalton and Srinivasan?

Evan: They're okay.

Suddenly, John (One of the main characters in “Carnation”) came and asked George about his health. George after ensuring his stableness asked John about the formula. John tells him, “It’s quite complicated”.

George: Why?

Later, Dr. Dalton and Dr. Srinivasan are in a face-to-face discussion with George, Evan, Scott, Fiona, and John. The scientists said that the formula is nothing without the matrices that are divided into two sets. One is in Dubai and the other one is in Seoul with Dr. Omar.

Scott: What are they? I mean the matrix?

Srinivasan: They’re Uno, Dos, Tres…..Diez.

Evan: Whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait? You just said numbers 1 to 10 in Spanish.

Dalton: It’s what they are.

Evan: Are you thinking we’re joking here? We saved you guys and you guys are just.

George: It’s okay, let them speak.

Dalton reveals that one set of matrices is in Dubai and it is owned by Raiden, a racer and a billionaire. He won it during an auction in Singapore. He has a racing event soon in Abu Dhabi.

Meanwhile, in Seoul Akash, Agatha, and Scarlet managed to find Cameron in a wrestling arena. He was gambling. Scarlet finds him and he asks her to help. At first, he misunderstands Akash as George, but the confusion is cleared by Scarlet.

Scarlet: What happened?

Cameron reveals that he has lost the bet against their opponent teams, as the player hired by Cameron didn’t come to fight after suffering a sudden illness. As a result, Cameron falls into a problem.

Akash: Okay, how much money have you lost? I think I can help you.

Cameron: It’s not money.

Agatha: Then?

Cameron reveals that he has to give the matrix box (consisting of 5 matrices) which is an essential element for the antidote formula, as per the bet.

Scarlet: Shit.

Akash: That’s it?

Agatha: What do you mean by this?

The opponent team refused to give the matrix despite the money Akash was offering them. So, Akash gives them a choice, he is going to fight the battle and the winner will take the matrix.

Akash enters the ring to fight against the opponent. It wasn’t an easy game but Akash emerged victorious. Later, Akash takes the matrix box as per the deal and goes with Agatha, Scarlet, and Cameron to rescue Dr. Omar.

In New York,

A global health meeting has been organized at the United Nations headquarters. Jacob attended the event and Melaine was giving speeches. She vows that her organization Spectrum Medicals will assist the world in getting free from the Cibola virus. Everyone appreciates her motivating words. Later, Mrs Jennifer Brown and Ryan Morgan (Two of the main characters in “Carnation”) who work in the SIS of the UK join Jacob.

They were discussing the virus. In addition, they also discussed how evil gangster groups are using technological advancement in the wrong way. It includes creating a virus, misusing AI, and several other things.

Lincoln calls Samuel and tells him that their plans are being disrupted by the intelligence agencies. He asked him to implement their plan soon. Victor also agrees.

Chapter 7:

George, Scott, Evan, and Fiona reached Abu Dhabi with John. They met Raiden who refused to give the matrix despite the money offered by George. Raiden said that currently, he has only three matrices out of five. The other two were sold by him to Victor and his gang which they’ve kept hidden in an encrypted safe in Abu Dhabi. John asked why they hadn't bought all five matrices. George reveals that they want to create a virus, not to diminish it, and at the perfect time they will get, create, or buy it.

So, Evan and Fiona go in search of the two matrices. Later, Raiden challenges George, Scott, and John. He asked them if they could participate in the race. If they win, Raiden will give them the three matrices. The matrices are the official prize for the race.

John hesitated but Scott agreed. He is set to participate in the race. George took his laptop to his hotel and called Eliza. He asked her about hacking the CCTV. Eliza was astonished and asked, "But, why?”. George didn't elaborate much but said enough about the incident. She agrees.

Later, George hacked the CCTV (with the assistance of Eliza and James) of the place where Evan and Fiona went to steal two matrices. After tricking the higher security, Evan and Fiona successfully stole the two matrices. Scott won the remaining three matrices after winning the race against Raiden and other racers.

Finally, after the mission, George, Evan, Scott, and Fiona celebrate the evening with drinks. John was also present there and told them that he had managed high security to send the scientists to New York. Suddenly, George receives a call from his wife Bella. She told him that she tried to contact him but it didn’t connect. At first, she reached Akash and Agatha who informed her that Geroge wasn't with them but with others. George explained. Bella wanted to give George a video call, but he has a few injury marks. So, he told her a lie about a network issue and managed the situation.

Then, George asked her about their children, Brian and Daisy, and also about Augustus (Akash and Agatha’s son). Bella ensures that they are alright. Akash’s mom Aditi also takes proper care of them. Later, Scott and Evan also receive a call from their respective loved ones, Kristen and Julia respectively. John and Fiona jokingly said, “Thank God, we’re single”. After that, everyone shares a laugh with their glass of whiskey. Scott asks, “Oh, what about them (Akash, Agatha, and Scarlet)?”.

In Seoul,

Akash, Agatha, and Scarlet find the location where Dr. Omar and a few other scientists are abducted. During the journey, Scarlet reveals to Akash and Agatha the truth about Victor, and how and why he killed their martial arts teacher. Scarlet also reveals that she, Ryan, and especially George were his best students.

They reached the location with Cameron. Victor was also present there planning to execute them with Samuel.

Samuel asks him to calm his mind. Suddenly, Akash, Agatha, and Scarlet enter the place with local police authorities. A gunfight started between them and evil gang members. During the shoot-out, a biker came and joined the SWARF team in the battle. The lady biker is Hannah (One of the main supporting essences in “Hummingbird: Illusion of Shadows”). After heavy firing and combat, she assisted them in rescuing Dr. Omar with the formula. However, Victor and Samuel managed to flee away after copying the details to their Tablet.

Chapter 8:

Victor and Samuel have set up a big plan. They have abducted a few Royal Danish Air Force officers. The Reptile gang threatens them to use their jets to launch missiles that will spread the virus into the air.

After the news went on air about the abduction of Danish Air Force officers, everyone around the world was shocked. Jacob is at a conference with several political authorities and discussing the incident. He tells them that the Reptile gang is the main mastermind behind it. So many senior authorities disagreed except Jennifer.

After the conference, Jennifer asks Jacob about the next step. Jacob sends a motivational message to his SWARF team. Brendan, Eliza, and James are also present at the spot. Jacob also said that the world has to unite in the battle against the virus.

After that, George, Evan, Scott, and Fiona prepared themselves for the battle. Akash, Agatha, and Scarlet are also preparing themselves. They all headed towards Copenhagen from their current location.

In Copenhagen,

The SWARF team united. Currently, they are not divided but a team of seven (George, Akash, Agatha, Scarlet, Evan, Scott, and Fiona). A partial lockdown has been announced by the local government.

Samuel orders a few kidnapped officers to start their flight. Suddenly, something from the sky is coming towards them. Victor showed it to Samuel. Even the other Reptile gang members are also in shock. Numerous drones start firing at them.

The drones were sent by George and his team.

Finally, the SWARF team reached the destination with local armed forces. Later, Pablo and other George’s allies also joined them. They have assisted the SWARF team in demolishing the entire Reptile gang in a heavy showdown. After a tough combat, George kills Victor and takes revenge for his teacher’s death.

After receiving several punches from Evan, Samuel fell tiredly. He surrendered to the SWARF team.

Evan: Did we just create the “Avengers Assemble” scene?

Fiona: I also think so.

Akash: Why not? We’re a team now.

George: Game over, Samuel.

Later, the local police authorities arrested Samuel.

In Madrid, Lincoln was on his way to escape but it was too late. Ryan, Hannah, and John apprehended him with the help of local police.

Chapter 9:

After completing their mission, the SWARF team boards Akash's private jet. They are on their way to New York. However, it’s a long journey, so Fiona suggested playing some games. Agatha, Akash, Scott, Scarlet, and Evan agree. George suggests playing card games.

Scott: Yeah, but no more King, Queen, and Jack games. (Sarcastically)

Evan: I also agree.

So Akash suggests UNO card games. They all agree. So, Akash gave them the UNO card and kept the normal card on his desk. Suddenly, the Joker card fell from the regular card box. Akash picked it up to put it in the box but he felt something strange. So he looked at the card again.

George: Hey, Akash, come on man. Join us soon.

Akash: Yeah, I’m coming.

Akash kept his glance at the Joker card.

In Madrid,

Lincoln was in an interrogation room. Hannah, Ryan, and John were asking him questions. After several rounds of questioning, Lincoln reveals that he is only aware of the virus, antidotes, and the abduction of scientists. However, he isn’t aware of the fact that the antidotes have three formulas including the matrices. In addition, he doesn’t know what the King, Queen, and Jack are. Hannah asked him to speak the truth but Lincoln said, “It is the truth”.

Lincoln: I don’t have any idea what King, Queen, and Jack are. If this is so, then I’m the Joker. Please, believe me.

Hannah: Lie.

Lincoln: I’m not. I swear.

John: I think he’s telling the truth.

Ryan looks at those documents and hands them over to Hannah who finds something suspicious.

In the jet, Akash was upset while looking at the Joker card. He felt like something was still unfinished. Agahtha notices Akash’s face and hugs him from behind.

Agatha: Hey honey, what’s the matter?

Akash: I think we’ve missed something.

Akash went to the table with his wife Agatha and told other members the same thing.

Meanwhile, Hannah, John, and Ryan tried to reach George and Aaksh but it didn’t connect. So, John sent an email to George. Hannah asked Ryan to call Jacob and inform him about the situation.

Everyone agrees with Akash on the jet and they couldn’t believe it. As Akash's jet has a wifi connection, George receives an email from John. George tells his team that Akash is right. He shows them the laptop.

Scarlet: Oh my God. What are we gonna do now?

George went to the pilots asking them how long it would take them to reach New York. The pilot says, “5 more hours sir”.

George: Damn it.

Evan: What are we gonna do now?

Brendan and Eliza are on their way to find Melanie in New York after receiving the information from Hannah and Ryan. They found her on the roof of her office building. She has a box containing the Cibola virus with her. Melanie is on her way to release it in the air. Brendan and Eliza asked her to stop.

Melanie tells them that it’s an act of revenge for her father’s death. Her father committed suicide 30 years ago, as the medical authorities didn’t believe his invention and insulted him. Melanie reveals that she is the Queen of this plan. She collaborated with the Reptile gang. However, she assures that she’s one of the main masterminds behind this but her employees and other partners aren't. She did this to bring justice to medical workers all over the world who are getting less payment and receiving backlash despite their hard work.

Brendan: I can understand your situation but this is not the right way.

Melanie: Then what’s the right way?

Eliza: Stop it.

Melanie: It’s not about the virus but sending a message.

After a heated argument, Melanie tries to throw a few chemicals at them. Eliza shoots but the place catches fire. After that, Melanie dies due to an explosion and the virus is destroyed in the fire. Brendan and Eliza survived.

Epilogue: The First Celebration as a Team

The SWARF team members reunited with their family members. Jacob with the help of Brendan and Eliza declares Melanie’s death as an accident. They didn’t reveal Melanie’s truth, as they didn’t want the employees and medical workers from Spectrum Medical to receive a backslash. They weren’t involved in this case.

Jacob makes a statement praising the medical employees. He urges the global health sector to praise them for their hard work and give them their deserving wage. Philip almost recovers from his injuries and Rachel is completely free from the Cibola virus. Dr. Dalton, Dr. Srinivasan, and Dr. Omar launch the antidotes in the air thanks to George’s drones.

A week later,

All the SWARF team members gathered with their spouses and children to celebrate their victory at Akash’s rooftop ceremonial house in New York. Fiona is single so she brings her adopted brother, Luiz who is 18 years old now.

The following people are also present at the celebration:

  • Brendan, Eliza, James, Hannah, John, and Ryan.
  • Jacob, Jacob’s wife, and their three children.
  • Mrs Jennifer and her husband.

Their children were playing with each other. The SWARF team members are enjoying their meals and drinks at the big table.

Scarlet: That’s amazing. We should do this every month.

Agatha: I agree.

Akash: Yeah, of course. I own the place, you guys can come any time.

Agatha gently punches Akash with her elbow.

Jacob requests George to give a speech, as he is the leader of the SWARF. Everyone claps.

George: I’m not gonna say much. It’s a wonderful evening. We gather here with our family members. We eventually became a family.

Evan: Oh, now you’re going in the ‘Fast and Furious’ way.

George: I don’t know. You should ask Scott. He is a better driver.

Fiona: Yeah, that’s true.

Scott: I don’t know. I don’t have the answer. (Raise his arms upwards)

Everyone laughs and celebrates the evening with joy.

One of the staff after confirming their seats asks Max if he has any twin brothers or not who have already entered this theater with his ladylove.

Max: Oh shit. Not again. (Started to walk back but Catherine stops him)

Catherine: Hey, let’s go. What happened? It’s alright.

After that, the couple entered the theater and noticed Akash and Agatha were also sitting there. Two couples greet each other.

Max: I don’t, but my wife.

Akash: I can understand.
