#plots

If you stop one terror attack in the U.S., it may be connected to multiple other plots out there that are connected. If you reveal that you stopped one plot, it may tip our hand. ↗

There's that old adage about how there's only seven plots in the world and Shakespeare's done them all before. ↗
