Kingsman: The Secret Service recap
In 1997, a Kingsman trainee dies saving the agent Harry Hart, codenamed Galahad, and Harry gives the man's young son, Eggsy, a medal with a number to call for help. Seventeen years later, Eggsy is a jobless young man living with his mother and her violent boyfriend, Dean. After he is arrested for stealing a car, he calls the number, and Harry gets him out and puts him forward for the open Lancelot position, after the previous Lancelot is killed by Gazelle, the bladed-legged henchwoman of tech billionaire Richmond Valentine. Eggsy trains under Merlin with other candidates, including Roxy. Valentine plans to cull humanity with free SIM cards that broadcast a signal making people violently attack each other. Harry tests it unknowingly at a hate church in Kentucky, where he kills the whole congregation, and Valentine shoots him in the head outside.
How Kingsman: The Secret Service ends
Eggsy learns the head of Kingsman, Arthur, is working with Valentine and poisons him. With Merlin and Roxy, now Lancelot, he raids Valentine's mountain base. Merlin triggers the implanted chips of Valentine's wealthy allies, making their heads explode, and Eggsy kills Gazelle and then Valentine with one of her blades. Back home, Eggsy, now a Kingsman, offers his mother a new life and confronts Dean in the pub.

Kingsman: The Golden Circle recap
A year later, Eggsy is the new Galahad and lives with Princess Tilde of Sweden. Charlie, a rejected Kingsman candidate with a robotic arm, attacks him and hacks Kingsman's data. Poppy Adams, the head of a drug cartel, the Golden Circle, who runs her empire from a 1950s-themed hideout in the Cambodian jungle, destroys Kingsman's headquarters and agents with missiles. Only Eggsy and Merlin survive, and their doomsday protocol leads them to Kentucky and Statesman, an American spy agency hidden behind a whiskey distillery, with agents Champagne, Tequila, Whiskey and Ginger Ale. They find Harry alive, saved by Statesman, but without his memory, and they restore it. Poppy has laced her drugs with a toxin that will kill all users unless the U.S. president legalises drugs, and the president plans to let them die. Eggsy plants a tracker on the girlfriend of Charlie at Glastonbury.
How Kingsman: The Golden Circle ends
Eggsy, Harry and Whiskey attack Poppy Land, and Merlin dies stepping on a landmine to save the others. Whiskey turns out to be working against them, and Harry kills him in a meat grinder. Eggsy kills Charlie, and Poppy, injected with an overdose by Eggsy and Harry, gives up the code to release the antidote before dying. Eggsy marries Tilde, and Statesman buys a distillery in Scotland to help rebuild Kingsman, with Tequila joining as a new agent.

The King's Man recap
In 1902, during the Boer War, Orlando, Duke of Oxford, sees his wife Emily killed by a sniper, and promises her to keep their son Conrad out of war. Twelve years later, Orlando runs a private spy network with his staff, Shola and Polly. Conrad saves Archduke Franz Ferdinand from a bomb in Sarajevo, but Gavrilo Princip shoots him later that day, starting the First World War. The assassination was arranged by the Flock, a secret society led by a mysterious Shepherd, whose agents include Rasputin, Mata Hari and Erik Jan Hanussen, who wants to bring down the British Empire and its royal cousins in Germany and Russia. Rasputin manipulates the Tsar into leaving the war, and Lord Kitchener dies when his ship is sunk. Orlando, Shola, Polly and Conrad kill Rasputin in Russia. Conrad secretly swaps places with a Scottish soldier, Archie Reid, to go to the front, retrieves proof of the Zimmermann telegram in no man's land and is shot dead by a British soldier who thinks he is a spy.
How The King's Man ends
Mata Hari has blackmailed President Wilson to keep the United States out of the war. Orlando beats her, traces the Flock to its mountain retreat, and finds that the Shepherd is Max Morton, Kitchener's aide, who faked his death. Orlando kills him with Shola's help, and the United States joins the war. Orlando buys a Savile Row tailor shop and founds Kingsman, with Arthurian codenames in Conrad's honor: Orlando as Arthur, Polly as Galahad, Shola as Merlin, Archie as Lancelot and King George V as Percival.
Post-credits scenes
Yes. In the mid-credits scene, Hanussen, now leading what remains of the Flock, introduces Lenin to the man who killed the Romanovs: Adolf Hitler.
