Motive

"Stefan" revealed himself to be the real Jovani the entire time. He said that he didn't tell us anything before because he suspected that Winter would tell everyone in the Pro-War Group about his double act which he's successfully pulled off in the group for years. Jovani said that ever since the U.S. sent some of their troops, which included him and his friends who died in his arms mid-battle, he has been determined to stop any other war from starting so people won't have the same experience, guilt, and trauma that he did. Jovani said that this is why he created the Division of Public Misconduct and that he tried his best to help us and his daughter, Danielle, through everything. He said that the only reason he shot down our plane was because Gunnar was holding a gun at his head while he was doing it to test his loyalty. Jovani then said that the fake Jovani we previously encountered, the one that Belen killed, was "Scott Booth," the chief of operating officers at LanCorp who Belen killed in an attempt to kill the actual Jovani. Jovani said that he normally kept his identity hidden because he knew he could only trust a very small portion of his agents: Belen was never one of them. After attending several of the meetings, it didn't take him long to find out that Belen was secretly Belen Landcaster, the CEO of LanCorp who took over the company after her grandfather went to jail in 1990. Belen never recognized Jovani, but he knew exactly what he needed to do to stop the war from happening: get rid of the spy. Jovani said that Gunnar faced a similar experience to his since around ten years ago, Gunnar and his family and friends, who were all in the army, were sent to fight the republic of Xinyahn and they lost terribly. While all of Gunnar's closest friends and family members whom he knew and loved since his childhood died in battle, he managed to hardly escape with his life. Gunnar and Jovani went down different paths, however. While Jovani decided to start an agency and prevent wars, Gunnar wanted to start a large one to put an end to the United States and Xinyahn together, as he blames both countries for his closest friends and family members' demises.

Additional Investigation

After Jovani confesses, we're shocked to hear him say that Gunnar wanted to destroy both the United States and Xinyahn, since we thought his entire goal was to have Xinyahn beat the U.S. and take it over the entire time. Jovani said that Gunnar blamed the United States for letting them go into a fight they couldn't have possibly won and not caring that everyone but him died, but rather keeping the entire ordeal a secret. Jovani then said that he blamed Xinyahn for obvious reasons: they were the ones that killed his friends and family. Jovani then told us that Gunnar's plans with the nukes are to set them off in both the United States and Xinyahn to wipe out both capitols and all neighboring cities for thousands of miles entirely and give the rest of the countries radiation poisoning until they all die. We always knew that Gunnar was crazy, but we never knew that he lost his mind in a way like this. We then decide to call Cailyn and tell her what we know and she tells us that this is extra bad news, as Amar has already left with the nukes to Xinyahn right now. We know that Amar is now the highest-ranking general in the country of Xinyahn and we can't possibly let the war spread to the United States, as now it's just in a few battlefields in Xinyahn with no civilization near there for miles. Jovani then told us that there's only one way to make sure that we stop them in time: to go to Xinyahn ourselves and prevent the bombs from being dropped.
We then hear a news report that the new president and the emperor of Xinyahn signed a peace treaty and that the war is over, much to our relief. However, Jovani said that all this will do is make Gunnar more infuriated and more determined to set off the nukes. Jovani said that based on everything in Belen's inventory, they made hundreds of atomic nukes that are ready to go off in either the United States or Xinyahn at any given time. We then call Siena and tell her to get the president and important government officials and rush to a northern part of Canada as soon as possible in order to make sure that they don't get affected by the nukes. Siena agrees and she immediately gets them to Canada and calls us a few hours later to tell us they're safe and that nobody's caught onto what happened yet. We then catch the nearest flight to the republic of Xinyahn and when we arrive, we see people running around the airport while panicking. We ask one of the people what's going on and they say that armageddon is starting and they didn't please the gods. We then look outside and see the nukes preparing to be launched. We go to the countdown site and realize that the one in charge of the countdown was shot in the head before they could press the buttons to activate the nukes and launch them into the sky. Although the nukes are safe for now, we need to find out how this murder links to everything else, so we begin to investigate.
