100 Things You Never Knew About Resident Evil
78. Chris Redfield Once Punched A Young Colleague
Resident Evil lore is deep and weird, and there's lots of important questions that are answered off-screen. For example, what happened to the S.T.A.R.S. Alpha Team after Resident Evil 1?
This story is largely told in files across the following games as well as supplemental material. Jill's Diary in Resident Evil 3: Nemesis gives us our clearest picture. With the RPD under Umbrella control thanks to Police Chief Irons taking bribes, the team decides to investigate the Pharmaceutical giant themselves. Barry leaves for Canada to settle his family somewhere remote, whilst Chris plans a trip to the company's European headquarters. In order to slip away undetected, Chris decides to get himself suspended by bumping into a colleague who is holding coffee and using it as an excuse to punch him.
Poor Elran, from the Boys Crime Department. Chris Redfield is a man who later punches boulders into oblivion, so this can't have been fun.
