Syphon Filter 2

(info to come soon)

In the New York parking garage, Logan has dispatched Stevens' henchmen and spots Lyle running up from a staircase near him with Teresa chasing him. Lyle is cornered and kneels on the ground, taunting Logan and Teresa they need him alive if they want to know more. Teresa ignores this fact and offers Logan to execute him or to let her do it.

Logan then executes Stevens and remarks that he's nothing more than "Another dead agent."

Trivia

  • He is listed as a Deputy Director
