The Ending Of Expend4bles Explained
By Christopher Ramos
Before we jump into the finale of "Expend4bles," let's look at some important details leading up to it that have a big impact. When we're reintroduced to Barney and Lee (Jason Statham), Lee is in the midst of a heated argument with his girlfriend Gina (Megan Fox) — who is also an Expendable — and she ends things with Lee. Then, they rejoin veteran members of their team as well as new faces for a mission that sees them fly into Libya to stop Rahmat from stealing nuclear devices for his secret employer, The Ocelot, a former target of Barney's who he failed to capture many years ago. Although the group's plan initially goes as planned, Lee breaks away to try and save Barney as his plane is being pummeled by anti-air weapons. Although he's successful in destroying the anti-air weapon, Rahmat shoots down Barney's plane, causing it to crash. When Lee and the others arrive at the crash site, all they see is Barney's charred body.
With the leader of their group dead, Gina is named the new leader by Marsh (Andy Garcia) and Lee is kicked off the team for disobeying orders. However, Lee still wants to avenge Barney's death. So, he teams up with an old ally of Barney's named Decha (Tony Jaa) to stop Rahmat, discover who The Ocelot is, and rescue the Expendables team after they've been captured by Rahmat.
