In the middle of the mission, something goes really wrong and there is no one left alive. No one but one guy- Ethan Hunt. So, as he reports the mission to be failed, he is considered to be the one who betrayed the whole team. With Kettridge (Henry Czerny) on the head of the agency, Ethan is on the run and there are lots of agents after him. Now, Ethan must find a way to clear his name and restore the balance in the agency. And there are some pretty unusual methods he is using, but if it helps, he has no problem with them.
