And if you've seen "The Bourne Identity"...

Yippity skip for you.

Okay, a US citizen is trying to get help from the US Embassy in Zurich.

Doesn’t alter the fact that there is no US embassy in Zurich. But the movie got it right - Bourne went to a consulate, not an embassy. And there IS a US consular office in Zurich.

You caught me. I didn't read the door. But, please, which services available in a US embassy are not available at a consulate?

No diplomatic relations with earth, hence no consulate or embassy.

Other than meeting the ambassador, none that I’m aware of.

There IS a difference, though, beyond the name.
