Los Angeles, California | MCU: Location Scout

Skye thumbs through a magazine at a sidewalk newsstand.

Okay, Skye, just need a plan “B”.

Cyber Coffee, Los Angeles

After being dismissed from The Bus (and the mission) by Director Hand, Skye attempts to circumvent her electronic restrictions at this local cyber-cafe, called Cyber Coffee. In reality, this was filmed in a restaurant called Great Steak on Wilshire Boulevard (which at the time of this writing is a Thai restaurant). Both this location and the next are right next to each other.

Sidewalk Newsstand, Los Angeles

Skye exits the Cyber-Cafe and stops at a newsstand, where she gets information about Lloyd Rathman. The newsstand was filmed just outside of Great Steak and in front of the Glo Apartments. She then glances towards a window of a clothing store and sees a jacket that will help her get into character.

Mr Lloyd Rathman is the unsuspecting man that Skye has targeted to get computer access and find out where VanChat’s money was going. Skye steals Rathman’s SUV from in front of his office. The name of Rathman’s firm is taken from the article Skye sees in the magazine, above, and was filmed on 7th Street in Los Angeles.
