Seventeen years later, Professor James Arnold is kidnapped
by unknown assailants, led by Internet billionaire Richmond Valentine and his
henchwoman Gazelle. One of Hart's compatriots, "Lancelot," attempts
to stage a rescue, but fails as he is cut in half by Gazelle. Valentine, known
for his philanthropy, continues to meet with various heads of state and VIPs;
some of whom go missing afterwards. He also announces a giveaway of SIM cards,
granting free cellular and Internet access.
In London, Eggsy is now an unemployed young adult living
with his mother, infant half-sister, and abusive stepfather Dean. Despite being
intelligent and capable, he left training for the Royal Marines and lives an
aimless life. After being arrested for stealing a car and taking it for a
joyride, Eggsy calls the number on the back of the medal. Hart arranges for his
release and tells Eggsy about the existence of Kingsman, a secret intelligence
agency for which both he and Eggsy's late father worked. In the wake of
Lancelot's death, the agency opens a vacancy for a new agent, and Eggsy agrees
to apply. He joins a group of other candidates, including a woman named Roxy.
Training is overseen by "Merlin," a senior Kingsman who acts as
teacher, quartermaster, pilot and Ops coordinator. The candidates are
eliminated one by one until only Eggsy and Roxy remain as the final two.
However, Eggsy fails his final test, and Roxy becomes the new Lancelot.
