Usually Special Ops would just be a bunch of intelligent special forces types, that's what I figured.
He would have a hard time escaping from Yuki just because she'd always be one step ahead, and stronger and faster too.
Keiko is a much different case. If she were hired for an operation like that, it would probably mean Tom would never leave his hotel room in the U.S. alive.
