Out of the blue, Simon appears with a lead on where the fugitive Serbian war criminal "The Fox" (Ljubomir Kerekes) can be found. Unable to resist the scoop, Duck, Simon, and Benjamin (Jesse Eisenberg) the son of the network vice-president set out in search of "The Fox." As they follow a trail that ends in numerous dead ends, Simon confesses that he does not want to interview "The Fox," he wants to kill him to avenge the death of his pregnant Bosnian girlfriend of the past. Other problems rise to the fore–including interference from a U.N. peacekeeping official (Mark Ivanir)–that result in alerting "The Fox" of their presence. But still, the search continues.
