John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum

Less than an hour after the assassination of Santino D'Antonio, John Wick finds himself declared 'Ex-Communicado' by the High Table. With a $14 million bounty on his head, every assassin in Manhattan is now hunting him down.

In his desperate attempt to escape the assassins, John Wick seeks refuge in the New York Public Library. There, he discovers a hidden crucifix necklace and a mysterious marker medallion, crucial elements for his survival.

John travels to a theater run by the Director, a significant figure from his past. She agrees to help him, accepting the crucifix as a 'ticket' for safe passage to Casablanca, signifying the debt John has exhausted.

The Adjudicator of the High Table confronts Winston and the Bowery King, demanding they step down for aiding John Wick. She delivers a warning to them about the consequences of their choices within seven days.

Upon reaching Casablanca, John meets Sofia, a former ally and the Continental's manager. He presents his marker to her, pleading for assistance in finding the Elder, the only one above the High Table.

Sofia directs John to Berrada, an assassin who cryptically instructs him to wander the desert until he can walk no more. When negotiations turn violent over Sofia's dog, Berrada shoots the animal, prompting a fierce battle.

After Sofia leaves him, John collapses in the unforgiving desert, nearly succumbing to exhaustion. However, he is rescued by the Elder's men, who take him to the Elder's hideout for his fate to be determined.

In a tense meeting, the Elder agrees to lift John's bounty but demands that he kill Winston as a show of loyalty to the High Table. In a painful act of submission, John mutilates his finger, discarding his wedding ring.

The Adjudicator recruits Zero, a deadly assassin, to enforce the High Table’s wishes. His arrival in New York sets the stage for lethal confrontations, leading to dire consequences for those who aided John.

As Zero and his mercenaries pursue John, a fierce battle erupts at the Continental. John, with Charon's support, manages to fend off heavily armed enforcers despite the initial overwhelming odds.

In a shocking turn of events, Winston shoots John multiple times as a part of an ongoing negotiation with the Adjudicator. John falls from the roof, presumed dead, as the hotel returns to normal operations.

The Adjudicator informs Winston that John's body has mysteriously vanished. This revelation confirms that John Wick remains a force to be reckoned with, leaving the threat of his return looming.

In a gripping conclusion, John Wick is rescued by the injured Bowery King, who expresses his anger toward the High Table. Together, they prepare to retaliate against the forces that have wronged them.

With a shared understanding of their plight, John nods in acknowledgment of the Bowery King's promise to fight back against the High Table. Their alliance sets the stage for the brewing conflict ahead.
