Doesn't anyone else think it's a little weird how no local police presence was involved in the tanker chapter until after the end? I would think, logically, that a helicopter full of armed Russian mercenaries landing on an oil tanker on the Hudson River in the middle of one of the most densely populated cities in the world would attract some attention. Does anyone else agree? |

Perhaps it could, but would their involvement really go so far as to influence local police? |

Of course, they control everything. But to be quite honest, how would local PD have known about the hijacking? |

The helicopter flying that low in the middle of a cramped urban area would have been a dead giveaway to most people. |

Even a stealth chopper makes a certain amount of noise, but I see your point. Even flying that low, if they were far enough along the river (which they weren't at the time), the only disturbance not covered up by the noise of normal city life would be the suddenly insane waves in the water created by the spinning rotor of the helicopter as it landed/hovered. |

Exactly, the Patriots see everything so I guess they would have known.

It's not even that the Patriots would see. They would have known anyway. Remember who was in the company of the Gurlukovich mercenaries? The Patriots' eyes were with Sergei Gurlukovich until the moment of his death. |

Fox, I'm going to guess and say that through all this, you would agree with Ocelot and the Boss? |

You are so right. I agree completely with The Boss in principle, but through Zero, Big Boss, and Ocelot, that dream was distorted and then, obviously Spoiler: click to toggle

That would be amazing. In fact, you and I should work together and write such a story, if you write at all. |
