Oh, ok, thank you for pointing out. Do you think a "spoiler warning" should be added? [[Special:Contributions/188.200.73.137|188.200.73.137]] ([[User talk:188.200.73.137|talk]]) 23:28, 27 November 2010 (UTC)

Spoiler

Deleted the following lines

"In his final trips, Captain Stevens begins to suspect that he -- or more specifically Sean (whose body he inhabits) -- is the bomber."

Seemed like a spoiler to me, not a very good idea to have it in the article, especially with the movie release so far away. 188.200.73.137 (talk) 09:53, 27 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
