Bourne discovers that his father Richard Webb was a CIA analyst involved in the creation of the Treadstone program. The assassin can intentionally murder anyone to get to the target of Blackbriar in the latest incarnation of the CIA’s targeted assassination ‘Beta’ program, known as ‘Iron Hand’ Bourne escapes and finds Lee, who admits that she is not comfortable with Dewey’s methods and directs Bourne to a technology convention for a public debate on privacy rights with Deep Dream CEO Aaron Kalloor.
