The day of the jackal episode 9 is a solid 8/10 for me.
This is a peak and a very intensed episode.
The killing of Udc was inevitable, immediately he got into the water, that was it!! There was no escaping at all.
If not for the little disturbance that the jackal encountered, all it could have taken to kill Udc was a single shot.

My own concern is that the jackal has made a mistake by killing the Spanish gangster his brother in law wanted to introduce him to, that has now shifted the eyes of international police and Mi6 to Spain and the location and definitely his brother in law will be interrogated.
I will like to see how he will get out of that one and coupled with the fact that Udc securities are giving him the chase of his life.

Perhaps he already planned a way out with his wife ( she loves him too much to leave him) so i guess we will have to find out in the episode finali next week.
To think that he didn't want to swim in the first place.

One of the boats came first to scout the suspicious boat.

It was after the confirmation that they sent more boats...but by that time UDC was in the water. The whole thing took about a minute because The Jackal was even counting seconds.

For the security personnel, it's harder than you think.

When there's a sniper shooting from so far out that you can barely see him, unless you're suicidal, you can't just jump in and die for nothing like the previous guard.

I think what the security should have had is a way to deploy a smoke screen. This would have been the most effective way to counter a sniper.

If they had several smoke launchers on ground, they could fire some into the water, but at least before they land, some of the smoke could disperse in the air to block the sniper's vision
The Jackal thought the best way to kill UDC was through water so he planned on that but what if UDC didn't swim because, remember, he didn't feel like it until he was convinced. All the Jackal planning would have gone to null, no?

Anyone with a working eyes and functioning brain knows there is much more he could have done to help UDC even though it might not stop the death.

The Agency

I think we were been led to believe that Samir is also another undercover agent in the first two episodes, and now I don't know if that's true or the misdirection is really working.

Cos you can't be just 'lecturer' and be driven around in chauffeur driven Benz. Abi is she actually married to a wealthy man?

I like how the therapist face is in constant smile and squinting eyes. grin

RE: The Day of The Jackal S1 EP 9 (2024)

Is it just me or did this episode had some insane levels of plot armour and devices?

Because for a supposed billionaire who has had an attempt on his life, It would seem UDC had a death wish and with all that money, it seems his security is pretty shite! cuz how is skinny dipping in an open water with, no known perimeter? Anyway i enjoyed the episode still.


But thinking about it now, The Jackal's body count up until this point, is off the charts...he has been dropping bodies left, right and center. I know we are all rooting for him but there is no way in walks into the sunset after all of these, unscathed? except this is one of those rare media where the villain comes out tops which i doubt it is, because of the insane number work they have put into the character development of Bianca.

I am of the opinion that this was better as a one off show, but they went ahead to green lit an S2. So now what? what is the endgame? He has been profiled almost 100% now, and it shouldn't take that long to nab him, so what will the whole of S2 be about? Will he continue dropping bodies whilst Bianca continues the faux cat and mouse game when she has like 90% of the information to nail him? or does he really walk into the sunset after all it's said and done?...... Fascinating to think about but cautious enough to know they might get it terribly wrong....fingers crossed 🤞🏿 ⏳

First, the security team already noticed a boat and knew that the owner of the boat has never stayed to fish on the water at least they could have sent like two jetski to make sure all is well before allowing UDC to go swim but i guess na tvshow and d plot must move forward sometimes by foolish decisions of people like the head of security....Now that i think of it, in real life people do make foolish decisions all the time.

Lolz....i agree say d guy stubborn but the head of security knew what he signed up for.
He can't stay underwater for long na, he has to catch his breath na why d jackal dey count ten secs for him...Guess all dat previous swimming no teach am any lesson or tricks
As for bianca, i no like d character at all...i thought she would match him aura for aura or at least something close but am not feeling d character at all and she sef no help her self with that annoying trouser she keeps wearing.
Ur last paragraph na wetin pain me for the UDC guy...he don get the feeling from last night till morning say something go happen and he no wan swim until d boyfriend come motivate am to his death...all dis motivational speakers if dem neva kill one others no go rest

Make head security go chop head stray from one of the best because he wan protect one mumu client he has always warned about his dangerous adventures. Stay under water mumu no hear, instead make he use dead security as bulletproof he dey ride solo for one of the most precise sniper, asin sniper. But why them no get sniper for roof? That him Agege Judas wants him dead.
Why couldn't he release it earlier, must it be that day? Learn from Musk who does and fix weird time. Man has no time for impossible, if you can't then go let me find someone who can.

That Bianca has taken it personal. They killed the operation but you still want to pursue it at the detriment of your family and career with no back story to tell us why she is persistent. It makes no sense to me. Now Alvaro don give you work again. If she no die for this series, I no go happy.

Jackal has made no mistake, you think the force don't know about him? Them classified his document still hide some details, even when Bianca tell him oga, oga whey don know B4 just dey look her. He easy to dey run international flight with different passport without all these secrets agency knowing? Man has backup for his family, na him life and extended family go chop blow.

Always listen to you, life is personal. If you listen to your heart abi na mind or spirit, you no go misroad like UDC

Precision has always been his modus operandi. Remember when Bianca was reading the news of the crime boss killed. They use the word precision and skill which gave her a clue that it might be the Jackal.

Patience is a strong suit of him.
A man as patient as the jackal is a dangerous man...D guy fit wait 10yrs to kill you grin

UDC's life has always been threatened.
He has always been swimming in open waters even with the hot threats
He doesn't really rely on his guards again since one of his guards tried to kill him during his speech

Not him or his guards knows how crazy and dedicated Jackal is... That's their flaw..that's why he got killed

Jackal episode 9 is rated 10/10 for me

God knows how much I hate that Spanish woman that Jackal married with her useless entitled family…

I always knew that his family will be his end …
Very useless Spanish girl
Especially her brother and mother
See how foolish that girl brother is
You no hustle na too Dey theif from your in-law
He should have wasted the Guy instead of the gangster
That useless guy will end up spilling everything to the police if care is not taken


A man is working his ass out the least you can do is give him peace …
Na why en good to marry good wife

I don’t blame the guy

Bro nobody expected it to happen at his home

Everybody expected it like outside maybe during the launch .. the guy to me was good ..

It was UDC gay lover that caused his death
Always undermining the chief security instructions

Even in the day of the launch the Mumu was encouraging UDC to go swim even against security advice … say na routine

Thats it oh, always listen to your mind. No matter the external pressure, just do you. Now partner has led him to his demise.

Also on the point you made about sticking to a particular date, just drop link to the app like the way Eminem release album. When you are big you are big.

I think UDC lives for the attention shaa, that's why he wanted to particular date. Anyway he has picked a date with his maker. grin

Is it a game? Yes
Is he doing his job? Yes
Is he good at it? Yes
Will he come out victorious, and live happily ever after? I won't put my hopes up.
He has committed a lot of atrocities and he would have to pay eventually

@the.. emboldened

Hear me out.

If the Jackal gets caught and he will, he's not going to prison.

The government will probably make him an offer. Attempt to turn him into their own personal hitman. His talents will not be wasted behind bars. He's too valuable.
