In The Film
Marissa Wiegler is a ruthless C.I.A. operative who wants to kill Erik Heller, an ex-C.I.A operative who has trained his daughter, Hannah, to kill Wiegler. When Hannah is captured by Wiegler's men, Wiegler has a double talk to Hannah. Afterwards, Hannah kills the double and several others before escaping. Wiegler, along with help from her partner, Issacs, begins a manhunt for Hannah and Erok (who is in hiding in Berlin), killing Hannah's grandmother and interrogating (and presumably killing) a family who helped Hannah along the way. When Hannah overhears Wiegler and Issacs talking to each other and saying that Erik is not Hannah's real father, Hannah learns from Erik that he is not her real father, but is a recruiter for a program that recruited pregnant women from abortion clinics so that the C.I.A. could alter their children's DNA and turn them into super-soildiers. When the program was shut down for unexplained reasons, the woman and their genetically-modified children were eliminated. Erik then tells Hannah he tried to escape with Hannah and her mother, Johanna Zadek, but were attacked by Wiegler, who shot and killed Johanna while Erik esacped with Hannah. After that, Erik and Hannah try to escape, but are attacked by Wiegler and Issacs. After Erik kills Issacs, he is shot and killed by Wiegler while Hannah escapes. After chasing Hannah through the woods, Wiegler confronts her at an abandoned amusement park. Hannah pleads for an end to the killing, saying she does not want to hurt anyone else. Wiegler says she just wants to talk, but Hannah starts to walk away. Angered by this, Wiegler shoots Hannah, who in turn shoots Wiegler with an arrow she shot from a bungee cord. Hannah then chases Wiegler up a nearby water slide, with Wiegler continually shooting at her. At the top, Wiegler becomes disoriented from the arrow shot and slides down the water flume, dropping her handgun. Hannah follows her down the flume, picks up the gun and tells Wiegler that she just missed her heart right before shooting her in the head.
