So It Looks Like Cipher Possibly Solved One Of Furious 7's Biggest Plot Holes


POSSIBLE SPOILERS BELOW


Everyone was complaining that Jason Statham/Deckard Shaw kept popping up throughout Furious 7. Me, I didn't have a problem with it. I figured Deckard Shaw was a VERY resourceful person and somehow was spying on them. Plus I was having so much fun that I didn't care.

But with The Fate Of The Furious and now knowing that Cipher blackmailed the Shaws or went to them to have them do things for her, I'm going with as Cipher being the explanation for Deckard Shaw constantly popping up randomly throughout Furious 7. Seeing Cipher's base and the tech she has, she was probably watching Dom and the others and was able to tell Deckard where they'd be and where to go. But I guess that just confirms my explanation for the plot hole and what I came up with while watching Furious 7, which was Deckard was a resourceful person.

I don't recall her saying anything in The Fate Of The Furious confirming it was her telling Deckard where to go. But I'm guessing it was her. And if it was her, then it looks like all the complaints of Deckard randomly popping up in Furious 7 can be answered with Cipher being the one telling him where to go.

She is now what I'm going with as an explanation for his random appearance throughout the movie. Unless it gets debunked.

There's a plot?

Yes. It's about muscle men... in muscle cars.



I like muscles.
And cars.

Good for you! Although it's not my genre I saw it and thought fans of this series would be very pleased.

Lol, I never really saw that plot hole in Furious 7. Shaw just seemed like a skilled assassin with a particular set of skills and one of those was continuing to stay on people's trails. I suppose what you're saying could be true too. Hard to say really.

I'm trying to go for an engaging, funny youtube channel so, if you have the time, take a look. Hope you enjoy what you see. Thanks in advance. A review of the movie here- https://youtu.be/4xfnsgokSQk
