During the introduction sequence, the president and his wife are waving at the crowd next to a limousine at the White House in Washington D.C., while terrorists (some flying in using jetpacks) approach the president and his wife armed and dangerous, and, as soon as the screen goes red and gun sounds are heard, they seem to shoot at both the crowd, the president and the first-lady. they are presumed as dead.
Later, a secret agent working for the American secret service and known only by the name of Sly, is informed that the terrorists that struck at the presidential ceremony were located, identified, did match their rap sheet and are confirmed to actually be C.W.D. (Council for World Domination) members.
