Storyline
Jim Phelps and his latest Impossible Missions Force team, who had just finished a mission in Kyiv, are dispatched to stop the theft of the CIA non-official cover list from the American embassy in Prague by rogue agent Alexander Golitsyn. As Hunt is the only surviving member, Kittridge suspects him of being the mole, and Hunt flees, using explosive chewing gum given to him by a fellow agent before the mission started to cover his escape.
