An evil tech corporation (ETC) develops something very disturbing. A young dev, who is also a Russian spy, gets into the core unit of the ETC trying to steal the code, and gets himself killed for that (which is somehow a bad thing). The dev's female partner, also a dev, works hard (not really) in order to bring the ETC down. The ETC doesn't agree.

There's two flows in this setup, one predictable and one critical. The critical one is that all the good teams' cast, but especially the female lead, is bland, uncharismatic, and unable to act. The ETC's cast, on the other hand, is much stronger, and the thing the ETC develops is much more interesting than anything else transpiring, so quite soon you realize you don't wanna see the lead anymore, with all those around her, instead you want to see what and how the ETC develops. (Apparently, the authors also felt that way, so at some point they tried to level the score with numbers and filled the whole apartment with different versions of the good team members simultaneously. Didn't help much.)

The predictable flow is the ending. But who would expect otherwise, so no grievances there.
