7. Blasting Off Again

Among the reasons that military aircraft cost a fortune, one of those is the equipment they have to be loaded with. Missiles and fancy computers are one major component, as is the fuel needed to keep them going.

You know what else is important? The quick means to exit your craft vertically should the need arise.

In the unlikely event that you have to eject from a plane, you want the reassurance that you're going to hit the ground safely. Which is something that 47 guarantees does not happen to Jasper Knight in 2016's Final Test mission.

Convincing Knight to follow safety protocols, our target is blissfully unaware that our master assassin-in-training has rigged the pilot seat to actually launch, rather than a dummy test. So, on 47's command, diligent Jasper pulls the tampered handle and does his best Team Rocket tryout.

It's not so much worse for us, as we don't get to see the messy aftermath. Yet for the target, who wasn't expecting that, it's hard to imagine a worse shock than being launched skyward and hitting the ground. Hard.
