The Day of the Jackal episode 9 preview and story to expect ahead
The preview for episode 9 of the show started with a look into how the Jackal would continue his mission to assassinate Ulle Dag Charles (UDC).

The preview went into details of how the world-class assassin would pursue UDC. The Jackal shall be seen using a steady-cam unit meant for cameras to stabilise his gun on a moving speedboat.
Using the speedboat, the Jackal shall navigate the waters around the island to disable UDC's security drones and take down guards before making an attempt on his target's life.
Meanwhile, the audience might see the Jackal's private life falling apart. He shall finally reveal his identity to his wife Nuria, confessing to her that he is paid to kill people off. The shock and betrayal after this confession shall leave their marriage and familial state in doubt.
