2. An Assassination?

The victim in question here is, like many of the other shots in this trailer, unclear. It's not Frank's wife - seeing as how she died in the crossfire at Central Park - but it's another scene featuring a man in full combat gear in an urban setting.

The trailer focused its attention on Castle's former comrades, so it could be the case that the unit will be featuring in the present as well as the past. They're outfitted with balaclavas, and they bear no particular insignia, so there's a big chance that these men are actually a part of Billy Russo's much discussed PMC outfit.

If so, that would lend well to the idea that Russo will be taking on the identity of Jigsaw later on in the season. Well, either that or this somehow relates to the previous torture scene, but they're not Frank's friends by any stretch of the imagination.
