Why Obliterated Fans Declared Ava Winters Their Favorite
The minute the woman 'behind the scenes' alerted her team that there was a countdown of a heat signature underneath the swimming pool, Ava Winters calculated the seconds it'll take for the bomb to go off.
The bomb goes off in eighty-three seconds and Ava is quick to realize that Koslov is NOT the target.
Despite being the team's leader, the sharpshooter remained in position, awaiting their final order whether or not to hit their target.
Ava's team has been declaring their move to either shoot the target or 'take out his muscle' with 'no collateral damage'.
Meanwhile, Winters was on the move to keep a close eye on Koslov: "..Except flushing months of work down the drain. Do not take that shot. That's an order."
Chad McKnight (Nick Zano) retorted, "I give my team orders."
However, Ava didn't hesitate to snap back, "And I give you orders. How the fuck do you not get that by now?"
Ultimately, Winters' orders continued to be doubted by the team when only 20 seconds remained. Everyone was still on their tail trying to convince her that Koslov was going to destroy the building.
Winters, on the other hand, trusted her gut, "He's not blowing up Vegas. At least not until he's miles away. Do not take that shot. He's a businessman. Not a suicide bomber."
You can probably guess what happens next. The minute the counter finished, the bomb was not an actual bomb. It was just a part of the party tied to the DJ's booth to spice things up. Never doubt Ava Winters.
