I just watched the Kingsman 2 trailer again (Before GotG Vol. 2, which is excellent btw)
And, once again, I find myself worried about the fate of Roxy Morton. So, because I’m sure Matthew Vaughn frequently prowls Tumblr for story ideas and because Kingsman 2 totally isn’t already done, I’ll give him the only ways in which Roxy being in Kingsman HQ when it explodes is acceptable:
Merlin and Eggsy are escorted into the Statesman meeting room by Agent Tequila after their misunderstanding, the two agents are greeted by Lancelot already seated at the table drinking some bourbon neat (or I could definitely see her pulling a power move and having her hosts make her tea).
Eggsy and Merlin stare, mouths agape.
Eggsy: Rox! Bloody hell! We thought you were dead!
Eggsy moves towards her quickly and gives his fellow agent a heartfelt hug.
Roxy: Why would you think that?
Eggsy: Headquarters was blown to hell! You were in it!
Roxy: I can read a “Missle Incoming” warning, Eggsy.
Merlin: Why didn’t you find us? How did you know to come here?
Roxy: I looked, but the shop on Seville was blown to hell and you two weren’t answering my hails! And we’ve talked about the Statesman before, Merlin, I figured they’d be a good resource to tap.
Eggsy: Well, bloody hell, yeah? Let’s get to work.
Roxy is found near HQ, broken, battered, and bruised. Eggsy and Merlin make sure she’s safe and being taken care of in a secure medical facility before taking off to face her would-be killers. Then, at the “All Is Lost” moment, as the Statesman and what’s left of the Kingsman appear to be beaten, reinforcements in the form of Roxanne “Motherfuckin’ Lancelot” Morton shows up and kills just an ass-load of bad guys. The good guys rally and win the day.
The Absolute Bare Minimum Option*:
Roxanne Morton is injured and near death after the attack on Kingsman HQ. Eggsy and Merlin ensure that she’s being properly cared for before going off to face her would-be killers. Roxy remains injured through the rest of the movie but is shown to be fully recovered by the end of the film.
*This option is only valid if Roxy gets a huge role in Kingsman 3
