Alias (2001–2006): Season 1, Episode 7 - Color Blind - full transcript

MY NAME IS SYDNEY BRISTOW.

SEVEN YEARS AGO I WAS RECRUITED
BY A SECRET BRANCH OF THE CIA

CALLED SD-6.
I WAS SWORN TO SECRECY,

BUT I COULDN'T KEEP IT
FROM MY FIANCé,

AND WHEN THE HEAD OF SD-6
FOUND OUT,

HE HAD HIM KILLED.

THAT'S WHEN I LEARNED
THE TRUTH --

SD-6 IS NOT PART OF THE CIA.

I'D BEEN WORKING
FOR THE VERY PEOPLE

I THOUGHT
I WAS FIGHTING AGAINST.

SO I WENT TO THE ONLY PLACE THAT
COULD HELP ME TAKE THEM DOWN.



NOW I'M A DOUBLE AGENT
FOR THE CIA,

WHERE MY HANDLER
IS A MAN NAMED MICHAEL VAUGHN.

ONLY ONE OTHER PERSON KNOWS
THE TRUTH ABOUT WHAT I DO,

ANOTHER DOUBLE AGENT
INSIDE SD-6 --

SOMEONE I HARDLY KNOW.

MY FATHER.

MR. TIPPIN?

I'M KATE JONES.

DANNY AND I
WERE HAVING AN AFFAIR.

I KNEW THAT HE HAD BEEN
SEEING SOMEONE,

BUT I WASN'T REALLY THINKING
SO MUCH ABOUT HER.

SEE, HERE'S WHAT DOESN'T
MAKE ANY SENSE.

I DID A TRACE
ON YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER.

KATE JONES,



YOU DIED IN 1973.

I HAVE TO GO.

WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?

[ COMPUTER BEEPING ]

OH, NO.

THAT LEAK -- THE GLITCH --
THERE'S A WORM.

THERE'S A HACKER
ON OUR NETWORK.

THEY'RE DOWNLOADING
ALL THE FILES OFF THE SERVER!

GOT TO CUT THE HARD LINE.

[ SERVER BEEPS ]

HELLO, ALAIN?
WE NEED TO MEET.

I THINK WE HAVE A MOLE.

PARKASHOFF WAS ASSASSINATED
BY MARTIN SHEPARD.

SHEPARD CHECKED HIMSELF
INTO A MENTAL INSTITUTION

IN SOUTHERN ROMANIA.

WE WANT YOU TO GET
CLOSE ENOUGH TO SHEPARD

AND GET HIM TO TELL YOU
WHERE PARKASHOFF IS BURIED.

AGENT FISHER WILL BE
YOUR SUPPORT ON THIS ONE.

HIS ALIAS IS
DR. CARLOS FONTENETA.

FISHER.

HEY!

JACK, I THOUGHT
YOU SHOULD KNOW

SYDNEY AND FISHER MISSED
THEIR SCHEDULED CONTACT.

WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?

WORST CASE IS, THEY'RE NOT
ALONE IN THERE.

MAYBE SOMEONE POSING
AS A PATIENT OR A DOCTOR...

COME ON, JACK,
SYDNEY'S A SMART KID.

WE'VE SEEN HER THROUGH
WORSE THAN THIS.

MAYBE NOT.

MAYBE NOT.

BUT I BELIEVE IN HER.

I BELIEVE IN HER AS IF SHE
WERE MY OWN DAUGHTER.

THAT'S NICE TO HEAR.

WHEN'S HER NEXT
SCHEDULED CONTACT?

10 HOURS.

THEN WE'LL KNOW
HOW HOT THE WATER IS.

[ COUGHS ]

LET US NOT WASTE TIME.

I KNOW THAT YOU WORK
FOR SD-6.

I KNOW THAT YOU ARE HERE
TO FIND OUT

WHERE MARTIN SHEPARD
BURIED PARKASHOFF,

THAT YOU NEED PARKASHOFF'S DNA
TO READ FTL CODE.

WHAT I DO NOT KNOW

IS WHETHER YOU HAVE
SUCCEEDED.

SINCE WE'RE NOT
PLAYING GAMES,

WHICH IS REFRESHING,

I'D LIKE TO KNOW
WHO'S ASKING.

MY AFFILIATION
IS UNIMPORTANT.

YOU HAVE UNTIL
THE MACHINE CHARGES.

ANSWER MY QUESTION.

WAIT. THIS CAN'T BE THE BEST
VERSION OF THIS CONVERSATION.

LOOK, SHEPARD
DIDN'T TALK.

I DON'T KNOW
WHERE PARKASHOFF IS BURIED.

WAIT, I'M TELLING YOU!
I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING! WAIT!

[ ELECTRIC CHARGE CRACKLING ]

[ SYDNEY SCREAMING ]

AH, MR. BRISTOW,

YOUR USUAL TABLE
IS WAITING FOR YOU, SIR.

THANK YOU, JOEY.

MR. BRISTOW, I'M SORRY
ABOUT THE --

WHO ARE YOU?

UH, I'M CIA.

OPERATIONS OFFICER
VAUGHN.

I'M SYDNEY'S HANDLER.

I CLEARED THIS MEET
WITH DEVLIN.

KRETCHMER WALKED ME
THROUGH YOUR S.O.P. WE'RE SAFE.

ARE SYDNEY AND I
SWITCHING HANDLERS,

OR IS THIS
A SPECIAL OCCASION?

NO. WE HAVE A PROBLEM.

FISHER HASN'T MADE CONTACT.
I KNOW.

NO. WE BELIEVE K-DIRECTORATE
HAD AN AGENT WAITING

IN THE HOSPITAL.

SD-6 DOES NOT HAVE
CONFIRMATION OF THAT.

CIA DOES.

WE HAVE AN EXTRACTION TEAM
WAITING ON THE READY LINE

OUT OF SERBIA. I WANT TO PULL
SYDNEY OUT OF THERE.

I WAS HOPING THAT MAYBE WE COULD
COORDINATE THIS TOGETHER.

MR. VAUGHN, YOU'RE YOUNG.

AND YOU'RE EAGER,
AND I UNDERSTAND THAT.

BUT ONE THING YOU'RE NOT --

AND THIS IS SOMETHING ONLY
TIME CAN PROVIDE, REALLY --

IS WISE.

YOU DON'T THINK
THIS IS THE RIGHT MOVE.

LISTEN CAREFULLY,
MR. VAUGHN.

EVEN WITH A MINIMAL
EXTRACTION TEAM,

YOU CAN'T GUARANTEE
CONTAINMENT.

AND IF SLOANE FINDS OUT,
SYDNEY'S AS GOOD AS DEAD ANYWAY.

RETIRE HER EARLY.
PULL HER OUT OF SERVICE.

AND IN THE PROCESS, EXPOSE
YOUR OPERATION AT SD-6.

SYDNEY'S LIFE
IS WORTH THE RISK.

NOT TO SYDNEY!

TAKING THEM DOWN IS WHAT
GETS HER UP IN THE MORNING.

OR DID YOU THINK IT WAS
THOSE MEETINGS SHE HAS WITH YOU?

HEY, WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM
WITH ME?

YOU PULLED MY FILE LAST WEEK.
THAT'S MY PROBLEM, MR. VAUGHN.

NOW, DID CURIOSITY
GET THE BETTER OF YOU,

OR WERE YOU TRYING
TO IMPRESS MY DAUGHTER?

SHE THINKS
YOU WERE KGB,

BUT I'M SURE
YOU ALREADY KNEW THAT.

SO WHAT I'M WONDERING IS,
WHAT WERE YOU DOING

CHECKING UP ON ME
CHECKING UP ON YOU?

THIS MEETING IS OVER.

YOU CAN'T TORTURE SHEPARD
FOR INFORMATION.

ELECTROSHOCK WON'T WORK.

FTL TRAINED HIM TO FORGET
EVERYTHING HE DID.

THAT'S WHY YOU'RE HERE
POSING AS A SHRINK.

YOU'RE K-DIRECTORATE,
AREN'T YOU?

WHAT MAKES YOU THINK
I WORK WITH K-DIRECTORATE?

YOUR ACCENT'S GEORGIAN.
GEORGIA, FORMER SOVIET UNION --

THEIR MAIN RECRUITING
GROUND.

SHEPARD THINKS
I'M A PATIENT.

HE'S MORE LIKELY
TO TRUST ME THAN YOU.

EXCEPT HE HAS ALREADY
ATTACKED YOU.

WHICH I COULD USE TO SEAL
HIS TRANSFERENCE

BY BRINGING HIS GUILT
TO THE SURFACE

AND THEN FORGIVING HIM.

I SUPPOSE YOU'D LIKE
YOUR LIFE IN RETURN.

IF YOU'LL GET SHEPARD
TO RECALL THE LOCATION

OF PARKASHOFF,

YOU MIGHT JUST LIVE OUT
YOUR LIFE

IN A CHECHNYAN
INTERNMENT CAMP.

YOU HAVE UNTIL LOCKDOWN
TONIGHT.

STAY AWAY FROM ME.

I'M HERE
TO HELP YOU.

I DON'T WANT
YOUR HELP.

I'M NOT OPEN
TO YOUR HELP.

I THINK I KNOW
WHAT'S HAPPENING TO YOU.

I'M SURE YOU DO, BECAUSE
YOU'RE ONE OF THEM.

YOU KNOW THE WORDS THAT
ARE GOING ON IN MY HEAD.

I KNOW I'VE SEEN YOU
SOMEWHERE BEFORE.

I'VE SEEN YOU BEFORE.

NO, YOU HAVEN'T.

I THOUGHT
I WAS SAFE HERE.

I THOUGHT
I WAS SAFE HERE.

I THOUGHT
I WAS SAFE HERE.

WHAT I'M ABOUT TO SAY TO YOU
IS THE TRUTH,

SO YOU GOT TO LISTEN
TO ME.

THEY'RE GOING
TO KILL US BOTH

IF WE DON'T HELP
EACH OTHER

TO GET OUT OF HERE.

THEN YOU'VE GOT
A REAL PROBLEM...

BECAUSE I'M NOT
LEAVING HERE.

I WOULD RATHER DIE

THAN LEAVE
THE WAY I AM NOW.

DO YOU HAVE THE CHART
DR. KRESHNIK ASKED FOR?

YELLOW SKY.

INTERESTING CHOICE.

I TOLD YOU,
YOU STAY AWAY FROM ME.

I KNOW THAT YOU'RE STARTING
TO REMEMBER SOME THINGS,

AND I KNOW YOU THINK THAT I HAD
SOMETHING TO DO WITH THEM,

BUT I DIDN'T.

PISS OFF.

YOU CAN'T SEE COLORS,
CAN YOU?

WHO ARE YOU?

IF YOU'RE NOT ONE
OF THE PEOPLE

THAT DID THIS TO ME,
THEN HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?

I'LL TELL YOU WHAT YOU NEED
TO KNOW,

BUT FIRST
YOU HAVE TO HELP ME.

I WAS SENT HERE TO GET
SOME INFORMATION FROM YOU,

BUT I DON'T EVEN CARE
ABOUT THAT ANYMORE.

ALL I CARE ABOUT
IS THAT THE MAIN EXIT DOOR

HAS A DUAL-KEY LOCK.

THAT MEANS IT TAKES TWO PEOPLE
USING TWO KEYS AT THE SAME TIME

TO OPEN THE DOOR.

I TOLD YOU,
I'M NOT LEAVING HERE.

NO, PLEASE BELIEVE ME.
THERE ARE OTHER PEOPLE HERE

WHO WANT TO FIND OUT
WHAT'S IN YOUR HEAD,

AND WHEN THEY DON'T,
THEY WILL KILL US BOTH.

YOU WANT ME TO BELIEVE YOU,
BUT YOU DON'T TELL ME ANYTHING.

I KNOW
I'VE SEEN YOU SOMEWHERE.

OKAY, OKAY.

LOOK, YOU WERE TRAINED.

YOU WERE PROGRAMMED

TO FOLLOW ORDERS.

WHOSE ORDERS?

WHOSE ORDERS?

TO DO WHAT?
TO DO --

TO KILL.

NO.

THE THINGS YOU'RE REMEMBERING --
THEY'RE REAL.

LOOK, I KNOW
IT'S HARD TO HEAR.

YOU JUST ACCEPT
THAT YOU DID THESE THINGS.

WHEN YOU'RE FOLLOWING
ORDERS --

WHEN YOU'RE FOLLOWING
ORDERS,

YOU'RE TRAINED TO SEE
EVERYTHING IN BLACK AND WHITE,

TO KEEP YOU DETACHED
FROM WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO.

LOOK, YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED
TO REMEMBER EVERYTHING,

BUT YOU ARE.

YOUR TRAINING
MUST BE SHORT-CIRCUITING.

LOOK, WHAT YOU DID,
IT'S SO PAINFUL TO REMEMBER

THAT YOU'RE SEEING
IN BLACK AND WHITE ALL THE TIME.

IT'S A DEFENSE MECHANISM,
BUT IT'S GOOD.

IT MEANS YOU'RE STARTING
TO HEAL,

YOU'RE STARTING
TO GET BETTER AND BETTER.

STOP IT, PLEASE!
GUARD!

TAKE ME TO MY ROOM.

TAKE HIM.

LOCKDOWN.

TELL DR. KRESHNIK

I HAVE THE INFORMATION
HE NEEDS.

A MEMO FROM LEGAL
ABOUT REPORTERS

QUOTING OTHER REPORTERS.

WHAT'S IT SAY?

CUT IT OUT.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING.

THANKS, JENNY.

DAVIS, CAN YOU SCROLL BACK
DOWN FOR A SECOND?

DID YOU GET THE MEMO?

COULD YOU SHOW ME
THE DAMN PICTURE?
ALL RIGHT, JEEZ.

HER NAME
WAS ELOISE KURTZ.

LOCAL GIRL --

FOUND SHOT TO DEATH
IN ECHO PARK.

DID YOU KNOW HER?

SHE SAID HER NAME
WAS KATE JONES,

BUT IT WAS REALLY
ELOISE KURTZ.

SHE WAS MY SOURCE IN
THE DANNY HECHT INVESTIGATION.

THAT MEANS SHE WAS MORE
THAN A SOURCE.

SHE WAS INVOLVED SOMEHOW,

SHE WAS TRYING TO TELL ME
SOMETHING, AND NOW SHE'S DEAD.

YOU'RE NOT HEARING ME, WILL.

I AM NOT SAYING
THERE IS NOTHING HERE.

YOU WON'T EVEN PUBLISH THIS,
EVEN THOUGH

I WAS INVESTIGATING ONE MURDER,
AND NOW THERE ARE TWO?

I MEAN, ISN'T THAT ENOUGH?

THE FASTEST WAY
TO BE DISCREDITED

IS TO AUTHOR A CONSPIRACY
THEORY WITHOUT BACKGROUND.

BELIEVE ME,
I HAVE SEEN THIS.

YOU MIGHT AS WELL PUBLISH
YOUR OWN HOME PAGE.

BUT WILL YOU AT LEAST
JUST TAKE A LOOK AT MY NOTES?

LEAVE THEM ON MY DESK
WHEN YOU GO.

I'M NOT TELLING YOU
TO DROP THIS.

I'M NOT BEING A MONSTER.
I'M TELLING YOU

TO BRING IT BACK TO ME
WHEN IT'S MORE DEVELOPED.

[ OVERLAPPING VOICES ]

OH, MY GOD.

WE ARE COMING TO YOU NOW,
DOCTOR.

WHAT IS THAT TATTOO
ON YOUR ARM?

SPITZNAS SPECIAL FORCES?
I ALMOST GOT A TATTOO ONCE.

I WAS ON THE GUY'S CHAIR --

AAH!

TAKE HER.

[ GROANS ]

HURTS, DOESN'T IT?

YOU WERE RIGHT.

I DON'T WANT
TO DIE IN HERE.

HOW DID YOU GET OUT
OF YOUR ROOM?

OH, IT WAS QUITE GOOD,
ACTUALLY. I PRETENDED TO --

I PRETENDED
TO SWALLOW MY TONGUE,

AND I LIFTED THE KEYS.

HEY.

LOOK AT ME.

YOU CAN DO THIS.

YOU THINK I'D HELP
YOU GET OUT OF HERE

IF I THOUGHT
YOU'D KILL SOMEONE?

UNLESS YOU'RE PLANNING
ON KILLING ME.

WHY WOULD I DO THAT?

[ ALARM RINGING ]

SORRY.

GET IN!

SEAT BELT.

[ ROCK MUSIC PLAYING
ON HEADPHONES ]

WHOA. HEY. COMPANY.

UH, HERE, UH,
I'M TOTALLY A MESS IN HERE.

SORRY, LET ME JUST -- I WASN'T
REALLY EXPECTING ANYONE.

YOU WANT
TO HAVE A SEAT?

I GOT A MINOR FORM
OF SCOLIOSIS,

SO THE AIR
ERGONOMICALLY HUGS ME.

IT'S, UH, OH,
YOU WANT TO STRETCH OUT?

I CAN INFLATE THE COUCH.

I'LL STAND.

OH, BY THE WAY,
I SCANNED EVERY BYTE

OF THAT COMPUTER NETWORK.

YOU'LL BE HAPPY TO KNOW,
NO MORE VIRUS --

THAT LEAK IS PLUGGED.

EVEN BETTER NEWS, SINCE IT WAS
EXPORTING FILES

AT SUCH A LOW BANDWIDTH,
ONLY 3% --

MARSHALL, THE VIRUS WAS
A SECURITY SECTION DRILL.

A-A DRILL?

LIKE A TEST?

YOU WERE THE ONLY ONE
WHO CAUGHT IT.

AND FASTER
THAN ANYONE ANTICIPATED.

SO GOOD WORK.

UM, I-I -- I MEAN,

THAT LEAK WAS TRANSMITTED
OVER AN UNSECURE NET CONNECTION.

ISN'T THAT A LITTLE RISKY?

SECURITY SECTION WAS
SURVEILLING IT THE WHOLE TIME.

I JUST WANTED
TO LET YOU KNOW.

OKAY, THANKS.

[ CELLULAR PHONE RINGS ]

YES?

DAD? WHERE'S VAUGHN?

I HAD HIS NUMBER FORWARDED.
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

I'M AT THE SAFE HOUSE.

ANY TROUBLE FINDING IT?

IT ONLY TOOK SIX HOURS
OF DRIVING THROUGH THE FOREST

IN THE DARK.

IS SHEPARD WITH YOU?

YES.

GET TO RINAS AIRPORT
IN TIRANA.

THERE'S A CHARTER FLIGHT
WAITING FOR YOU

UNDER KRAJA PETROL CORP.

THE HARDEST PART'S OVER,
SYDNEY.

WE'LL TALK
WHEN YOU GET BACK.

WHY ME?

WHY DID YOU EVER
COME TALK TO ME?

I WAS LOOKING FOR A MAN.

WHO?

THE MAN WHO YOU KILLED

AND BURIED.

HIS NAME WAS
GARETH PARKASHOFF.

THAT'S WHAT
I WAS SENT IN TO FIND.

THE MAN I KILLED.

THE FIRST TIME I HAD
THE IMAGES IN MY HEAD,

IT WAS LIKE...

A SEIZURE.

FLASHES OF PEOPLE,
PLACES,

A STREET SIGN.

I THOUGHT I WAS REMEMBERING
BAD DREAMS

BECAUSE IT WAS
IN BLACK AND WHITE,

BUT IT WAS SO VIVID,
IT WAS SO VIVID.

I DIDN'T KNOW HOW MUCH
OF IT WAS REAL.

I FOUND THE STREET.

I HEARD
THERE HAD BEEN A MURDER.

A SHOPKEEPER
RECOGNIZED ME.

I WAS CONVINCED
I HAD TO BE DELUSIONAL.

I COULDN'T BE A KILLER.
I COULDN'T BE A KILLER.

WHERE YOU FOUND ME WAS

AS...REMOTE A PLACE
AS I COULD FIND TO --

TO LOCK MYSELF AWAY
IN CASE...

IN CASE I WAS WRONG.

IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT.

I FEEL LIKE I'VE BEEN
STOLEN

FROM MYSELF.

I DON'T KNOW
IF THERE WAS EVER A ME.

I DON'T KNOW WHO --

PLEASE TELL ME
WHO YOU ARE, SYDNEY.

MAYBE THAT WILL HELP ME
TO UNDERSTAND --

HOW DID YOU KNOW
MY NAME?

I-I DON'T --

HOW DID YOU KNOW
MY NAME?

THE BANNER.

WHAT BANNER?

IT SAID,
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SYDNEY."

I HEARD THE WATER...

RUNNING.

[ GASPS ]

I'M SO SORRY.

[ SOBBING ]

[ LEAVES RUSTLE ]

OH...

[ SOBBING ]

THE MAN YOU WERE ORDERED
TO KILL WAS MY FIANCé.

HIS NAME WAS DANNY.

[ SOBS ]

I TOLD DANNY

I'M A SPY

BECAUSE HE WAS THE ONE PART
OF MY LIFE

I COULDN'T STAND
TO BE A LIE.

THEN WHEN SD-6 FOUND OUT,

THEY CALLED
ON ONE OF THEIR HIT MEN --

SOMEONE
THEY'D ALREADY ENLISTED.

THEY CALLED ON YOU.

I THINK THE MAN
WHO PROGRAMMED YOU

IS NAMED McCULLOUGH.

HE'S THEIR NEURO TECH.

McCULLOUGH.

YEAH. YEAH.
HE'S IN HERE.

THE IRONY IS

THEY NEVER LIED TO ME
ABOUT WHAT WOULD HAPPEN

IF I TOLD SOMEONE.

IT WAS THE ONE THING
THEY SAID

THAT TURNED OUT
TO BE TRUE.

NOW I'M A DOUBLE AGENT
FOR THE CIA,

AND I WILL BE
UNTIL SD-6 IS GONE.

WILL...

FINDING WHERE
PARKASHOFF IS BURIED

HELP YOU TO TAKE DOWN

THE PEOPLE THAT DID THIS
TO US?

YES.

I LEFT HIS BODY
IN MARSHLAND

ON THE LOUISIANA/TEXAS
BORDER

OFF THE I-10.

SO THAT'S THE DEAL?

SHEPARD WROTE DOWN
THE LOCATION

OF PARKASHOFF'S BODY.

IN EXCHANGE, I HELPED HIM
ESCAPE THE ASYLUM.

I SEE.

WHERE'S SHEPARD NOW?

HE COMMITTED SUICIDE.

SOMETHING WENT WRONG
WITH HIS PROGRAMMING.

HE STARTED REMEMBERING
WHAT HE'D DONE.

SNAPPED.

WHEN WE WERE CROSSING
OVER THE BORDER INTO BULGARIA,

HE JUMPED.

THREW HIMSELF
OFF THE BRIDGE

INTO LAKE SCUTARI.

THERE'S NO WAY
HE COULD HAVE SURVIVED.

WELL, IF BY SOME MIRACLE,
HE DID SURVIVE,

I'M SURE WE'LL HEAR ABOUT IT
SOONER OR LATER.

I TOLD SD-6
SHEPARD WAS DEAD.

I WAS GOING TO LIE TO YOU
ABOUT IT, TOO,

BUT THE TRUTH IS

I CAN'T STAND LYING
TO ANYONE ELSE.

WELL, I APPRECIATE THAT.

I'LL BE HONEST
WITH YOU, TOO --

THERE ARE PEOPLE
AT THE AGENCY

WHO WILL WANT HIM FOUND.

HE'S AS MUCH A VICTIM
OF SD-6 AS I AM.

SHEPARD BURIED
PARKASHOFF'S BODY

IN A LOUISIANA MARSHLAND.

SLOANE SENT OUT
A FORENSICS TEAM

TO GET A DNA SAMPLE.

THEY SHOULD BE ABLE
TO USE IT

TO DECODE THE FTL MESSAGE
BY TONIGHT.

WE WERE WORRIED.

YEAH, I KNOW THE CIA
HATES TO LOSE ITS ASSETS.

NO, I MEAN I WAS WORRIED
FOR YOU.

IN FACT, I, UH...

I CONTACTED YOUR FATHER.

UH...

JUST SO YOU KNOW,
HE, UM...

HE KNOWS I PULLED HIS FILE,
AND HE SUSPECTS YOU'VE SEEN IT.

IT'S OKAY.

[ PAGER BEEPS ]

IT'S ME.

THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT.

LOOKS LIKE
OUR SD-6 COMPUTER VIRUS

IS TURNING OUT
TO BE A GOLD MINE.

GOOD.

MAYBE WE CAN
GET AHEAD OF THEM FOR ONCE.

WHY DON'T YOU GO HOME,
GET SOME REST?

HAPPY THANKSGIVING.

OH, GOD.

FRANCIE?

OKAY, WERE YOU EVER
GOING TO CALL ME BACK?

I'M SORRY.

I MEAN, WHERE THE HELL
HAVE YOU BEEN?

I LEFT, LIKE,
THREE MESSAGES.

I KNOW.
MY TRIP WAS EXTENDED.

YOU CAN'T JUST DISAPPEAR
ON ME LIKE THAT.

WHAT'S BURNING?

IT WAS JUST
A LITTLE OVEN FIRE.

FRANCIE,
I JUST MOVED IN HERE.

I FRICASSEED THE TURKEY.

YOU OKAY?

I'M GLAD TO BE HOME.

OKAY, BUT THE TURKEY'S
REALLY BURNING.

I MEAN, IT'S BURNING.

OH, GREAT.

OOH.

[ DOORBELL RINGS ]

HEY.

HI.
HI.

OH, UH, SYDNEY,

THIS IS, UM,
THIS IS JENNY.

SHE, UH,
SHE WORKS WITH ME.

HI.

HI. HA HA HA.

UM, THANKS FOR LETTING ME
CRASH YOUR PARTY.

I WOULD HAVE TOTALLY
BROUGHT SOME WINE,

BUT I GOT CARDED...
SO, CIDER.

CIDER'S PERFECT.
THANK YOU.

COME IN.

WOW. YOU LOOK GREAT.

IS THAT THE SWEATER
I GOT YOU FOR CHRISTMAS?

UH, YEAH.

THAT'S NOT WHY I WORE IT.

HA HA HA.

I'M GOING
TO GO PUT THAT ON ICE.

OKAY.

SHE'S CUTE.

HMM? YEAH.
THAT'S THE NEW INTERN.

SHE'S, UH...

HER PARENTS ARE IN EUROPE,
SO I FELT BAD.

THAT'S JENNY.

MM-HMM.
IT'S STRICTLY PROFESSIONAL.

REALLY?

WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?

OH, NOTHING.

All: HAPPY THANKSGIVING.

All: CHEERS.

[ LAUGHS ]

UM...

SOMEBODY'S ALWAYS

HA HA.

THIS YEAR, IT'S ME.

I WANTED ALL OF YOU
TO BE HERE

FOR WHAT I'M ABOUT TO DO,
WHICH IS

PROBABLY GOING TO BE

ONE OF THE MOST
EMBARRASSING MOMENTS EVER.

OH, GOD.

BUT THIS THING IS BURNING
A HOLE IN MY POCKET.

FRANCIE...

YOU'RE MY LAST STOP,
BABY.

WILL YOU MARRY ME?

OH.

[ Whispers ] YES.

YES, CHARLIE, I WILL.

OKAY, WATCH THE TONGUE.

YOU'RE SOMETHING ELSE.

GLAD YOU'RE
TAKING IT SLOW.

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

DAD.

THIS WAS ON YOUR LAWN.

IT'S MY NEIGHBOR'S.

I'LL GIVE IT TO HIM.
OH.

DO YOU WANT
TO COME INSIDE --

SHEPARD KILLED DANNY.
I'M ASSUMING YOU KNOW THAT.

IF I HADN'T,

THANK YOU FOR BREAKING IT
TO ME SO GENTLY.

I'M TELLING YOU
BECAUSE I DON'T WANT YOU

TO THINK
IT'S MY MISSION IN LIFE

TO KEEP THINGS
FROM YOU.

THEN WHY DO YOU?

FBI REPORT,

SIGNED BY THE DEPUTY DIRECTOR
UNDER CARTER,

CLEARING ME OF HAVING
ANY INVOLVEMENT WITH THE KGB.

SYDNEY,
YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND

IT WAS THE HEIGHT
OF THE COLD WAR.

AFTER THEY CAUGHT
BOYCE AND LEE IN '77,

EVERYBODY
WAS UNDER SUSPICION.

SO I SUPPOSE
IN A WAY...

YOUR MOTHER'S ACCIDENT
WAS MY FAULT,

SINCE THE FBI
WAS AFTER ME.

IF I COULD GIVE HER BACK
TO YOU, I WOULD.

TAKE IT.

I DON'T NEED TO.

YOU SHOULD STAY.

WORK.

I'M GLAD YOUR TRIP
WENT WELL.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING.

YOU TOO.

WE FOUND PARKASHOFF'S BODY
AND RAN A DNA SAMPLE

THROUGH THE GENETIC DECODER
YOU OBTAINED LAST WEEK.

IT DECODED
THE FTL COMMUNIQUé.

HERE'S THE FULL TEXT.

"POSSIBLE LOCATION
OF RAMBALDI ARTIFACT

DISCOVERED IN TUNISIA.
DIG PROCEEDING."

WELL, NOW WE KNOW
WHERE ALL THOSE FTL AGENTS

WENT OFF TO
IN SUCH A HURRY.

SO I'M OFF TO TUNISIA.

ACTUALLY, NO.

WE SENT AN ADVANCE TEAM THERE
ON A RECON MISSION,

AND BY THE TIME THEY GOT THERE,
THE DIG HAD BEEN EVACUATED.

FTL MUST HAVE FOUND
WHATEVER WAS BURIED THERE.

WE THEN TRACED THE SHIPMENT
OUT OF EL KEF

TO THE DEPARTMENT
OF ENGINEERING SCIENCE

AT OXFORD.

FTL HAS NO IDEA
WHAT THEY'VE UNCOVERED,

OR ELSE THEY WOULDN'T RISK

SENDING IT TO CIVILIANS
FOR ANALYSIS.

BUT WHATEVER IT IS,

SOME OF THE BEST MINDS
IN THE WORLD

ARE STUDYING IT
AS WE SPEAK.

THE UNIVERSITY
IS HOLDING A RECEPTION

FOR VISITING PROFESSORS
TOMORROW NIGHT.

YOU'RE GOING AS A SCOUT
FOR THE MORISA FOUNDATION

LOOKING
FOR GRANT CANDIDATES.

NOW, SYDNEY,

KEEP IN MIND

THAT FTL IS LIKELY TO HAVE
A LARGE PRESENCE THERE

TO MAKE SURE
THAT WE DON'T TRY

WHAT WE ARE
ABOUT TO TRY.

IN THE INTEREST OF FAIRNESS,
I REREAD YOUR NOTES LAST NIGHT.

NO, I KNOW.
YOU KNOW WHAT?

THERE WASN'T
MUCH THERE ANYWAY.

WELL, YOU JUST NEED
A LOT MORE SHOE LEATHER

IF YOU WANT TO GO WITH
THE STORY YOU'RE LOOKING FOR.

NO, YOU'RE RIGHT.

I THINK IT'S BETTER
IF WE JUST DROP THE WHOLE THING.

NO, YOU'VE GOT ENOUGH,
WILL, FOR AN INITIAL PIECE

ON WHY THE POLICE
ARE NOT MORE CURIOUS,

SO YOU TAKE IT
FROM THAT ANGLE.

WE GO TO PRESS
ON TUESDAY.

WELL, WELL,
WAIT, WAIT --

I'M NOT --
I MEAN, WOW.

THANK YOU.

UM, TUESDAY, THOUGH?

IS THAT, LIKE, SET?

WILL, ARE YOU ON DOPE?
HUH?

JUST 24 HOURS AGO, YOU WERE
BEGGING ME TO PUBLISH THIS.

I KNOW.
OKAY, HERE'S THE THING --

DANNY HECHT,

THE MURDER THAT STARTED
THIS WHOLE THING --

HE'S MY FRIEND'S --

HE WAS MY FRIEND'S FIANCé.
I JUST...

AFTER SEEING HER LAST NIGHT,
I'M HAVING SECOND THOUGHTS.

SHE DOESN'T KNOW THAT
I WAS DOING THIS STORY.

WELL,
WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL HER?

I'D THINK SHE'D WANT SOMEONE
TO INVESTIGATE IT.

I DID TELL HER,
A WHILE AGO, AND...

SHE ASKED ME
AS A FAVOR TO DROP IT.

I JUST DON'T WANT
TO HURT HER, THAT'S ALL.

OH, I'M GENUINELY SORRY
TO HEAR THAT, WILL,

BECAUSE THIS IS NOW
A LEGITIMATE PIECE,

AND IF YOU DON'T
WANT IT,

I WILL GIVE IT
TO SOMEBODY ELSE.

DON'T CHICKEN OUT
ON ME NOW.

WHATEVER THE RAMBALDI ARTIFACT
TURNS OUT TO BE,

THE CIA WANTS
PHOTOGRAPHS OF IT.

YOU'LL DO IT
IN YOUR HOTEL ROOM.

WE'LL PLANT A SUB-MINI CAMERA
IN THE BIBLE.

THERE'S ONE MORE THING.

ONE OF OUR ROMANIAN ASSETS
SPOTTED ANNA ESPINOSA

LEAVING THE PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITAL
AFTER YOU ESCAPED.

BE CAREFUL.
SHE'S ON THIS.

HOW WAS YOUR THANKSGIVING?

GOOD.

MY FRIEND GOT ENGAGED.

OH. WHAT --
WHAT'S HER NAME?

FRANCIE.

HOW WAS YOURS?

UH, TYPICAL.
SPENT IT WITH MY MOM.

WHAT ABOUT --
IS IT ALICE?

YEAH. WE BROKE UP.
