YMMV / In From the Cold

• Complete Monster: Svetlana Petrova is Anya Petrova's mother and handler at the SVR. Overseeing Anya, she sends a fellow SVR agent to spy on her and when Anya catches him and saves him from falling to his death, Svetlana has him killed before berating Anya for sparing him. Svetlana later coerces Anya into injecting herself with the "Yaroslav" bioweapon, giving her the power to shapeshift. In the present, Svetlana adopts the pseudonym "Gideon" and collaborates with far-right extremist Felipe Calero to assassinate the Spanish Prime Minister. Svetlana hypnotizes Anya's old friend Damían Abasolo to torture Anya, forcing her to kill him. Svetlana later shoots Anya and leaves her for dead before hypnotizing Anya's daughter Becca—Svetlana's own granddaughter—to assault US Senator and Presidential candidate Warren Richardson. When Anya arrives and causes a lockdown, Svetlana hypnotizes Richardson in the safe room, putting him under her control and planning to launch a missile into St. Petersburg to start World War III.
