19. Amanda Waller Threatens To Kill Bloodsport's Daughter

After the brutal opening sequence, we flash back to three days prior, where Amanda Waller is putting the two teams together and attempts to recruit Bloodsport (Idris Elba) to lead Team 2.

Bloodsport isn't interested, so Waller forces his hand by heavily implying that if he refuses, she will exert her power to ensure that his 16-year-old daughter Tyla (Storm Reid) - who was caught stealing a smart-watch - gets imprisoned and attacked or even killed in jail.

Naturally Bloodsport doesn't take too kindly to this and makes a physical move on Waller, before realising there's absolutely nothing he can do to change his daughter's situation beyond agreeing to Waller's terms. Colder than ice, Amanda.
