Wesker's involvement with the U.S. government and other stories

[Krispy]

In Umbrella Chronicles "Death's Door" Chapter, Wesker calls her "Ada".

Wesker also knew of her presumed identity before she shed herself of "Ada." He could just use it to spite her or out of habit or personal preference.

[Skunky]

While it's interesting to speculate, I don't think whether Ada is her real name or not is really relevant... It seems that it could well be an alias, her code name or alter ago or it could be her real name and she was considering changing it. The fact is, she has been using that name for long enough now that everyone in the RE universe knows her as Ada, so that's what she'll remain to be called (like Madonna or some other celebrity, she's stuck with the name now...)
Her RE3 epilogue is an insight into her fragile state of mind after the Raccoon incident. She's emotionally and physically battered and what's relevant is that firstly she's survived and secondly, she wants to get out of 'the business' and leave the zombie killing, double crossing lifestyle behind her. She has a cry about it all but thoughts of quiting are virtually instantly dismissed, because
"her next mission is only hours away". As we see from her appearance and actions in RE4, she's still very much 'in the business'.
Ada is probably my favorite RE character (not just because she's HOT). She's very interesting. What drives her? What is her motivation? Is she really as ruthless and self serving as she often appears to be?
Why is she SO dedicated to the people she works for? Money? A family connection? Where did she come from, learn to fight etc...?
She's one mysterious chick!

I'm also a bit confused about Sherry's fate. After being left behind by Claire, did Leon and Sherry go to the government or were they captured? Is that how Leon came to work for the president? Did the army hand over Sherry to Wesker or did he somehow kidnap her? (that is, if he actually has her). Will Sherry as a young adult, forgive Claire for breaking her promise and being abandoned by her?

To say the series has a lot of unanswered questions is a major understatement...

Well skunky as we see in outbreak. the US military present around Raccoon City trying to contain it. Leon and Sherry were almost certainly found.

[Gradon]

Skunky, what you said makes me think alot now...
But I do doubt that Ada is a fake name, I mean, Ada Wong, I think what she means by "that was Ada", is that she wants to change her job, her missions, everything and wants to be a different "Ada."
Though something bugs me...Alot...
Claire doesn't mention Sherry AT ALL in Code Veronica, which is only a few months after the Raccoon City incident.
And Claire isn't the one to forget people, so what about Sherry? Does she remember to look for her? Because currently she hasn't really bothered with it...Though, after Code Veronica, we don't know, so she probably has searched for her but hasn't prevailed.

[BLSR1]

RE degeneration has clair. We'll see if she is in fact looking for sherry

There is also the fact that Leon doesn't know what Wesker looks like, at the time of the epilogue. That would further suggest the person was Wesker posing as an agent, or whatever reasoning/situation was there. Perhaps Wesker wanted Leon to work for the government so he could keep tabs on him being in the "system" and not underground. That said, Jill and Chris went "underground" and Wesker spies them rather easily on the chopper to the snowy facility in UC.

As for Sherry, wouldn't she be 20+ by the time of RE5? Makes you wonder if the blonde woman at the end of the RE5 trailer might be her, since it fits with Wesker taking her and possibly using her as a test subject for some reason? You guys may have already discussed that trailer to death (I have my inklings it's either a new character, alexia reborn, or sherry, or none of the above xD) so I may have missed that one.

There is a photo of Wesker with all the over stars members in the 2F stars office

I doubt the agent is Wesker. In Wesker's Report, he clearly says "and Leon joined forces with an underground anti-Umbrella organization".

Thanks for another plot hole, Capcom!

[Gradon]

Capcom rock at plot holes, srsly.

As for Sherry, wouldn't she be 20+ by the time of RE5?

12 in 1998, by 2004, she'd be 18, if RE5 is two years after 2004, or even four, then she'd be 20-22.

Shoot me down if there's anything wrong with this, but I have a theory.

Perhaps Ada had a friend or a relative whom Wesker had captured for one reason or another. Ada(or whatever her name is at that time) will do anything to get that person free, and Wesker knows it. It's unknown who initiates the deal, but somehow she agrees to work for him with the inner motive of rescuing this person. After working with Wesker for a bit, she realizes the difficulty of the task and goes seeking outside help from the company "S". She agrees to assist them behind the scenes if they will help her rescue her friend/relative. Any chance that "friend or relative" is the person seen at the end of the trailer?

I don't know if any of you guys will agree with this, or if it has already been said, anyway...
I really don't think Wesker has a direct involvement with the government, besides from maybe some informal contact from his time working with Umbrella. I think that the guy in Leon's epilogue is actually Krauser... we can't see him very well, but the hair is practically the same...
He's offered a job in the government in exchange for Sherry, and he accepted. Then, we got to know that Sherry was with Wesker and 6 years later, we see Leon working directly for the president... and with Krauser as his partner not a long time before...
I always thought of it that way, but that teory failed when it was against the idea that the RE heroes are 100% good, and that Leon wouldn't do something like that being a 100% good guy. Knowing that someone threatened to kill Sherry made all the diference.
