Alias (2001–2006): Season 2, Episode 10 - The Abduction - full transcript

Will:
PREVIOUSLY ON "ALIAS"...

OKAY, DIXON, I'M IN.

STAND BY.

SYDNEY, YOU'RE LOOKING
FOR VASILI KABILOV.

I.D. TAG C16.

WHAT'S GOING ON?

WE JUST HEARD FROM ANALYSIS
ABOUT THE CODES YOU ACQUIRED

IN UZBEKISTAN.
THEY HAVE NOTHING TO DO

WITH TROOP
COMMUNICATIONS.
WHAT ARE THEY FOR?

THEY'RE THE CONTROL CODES
FOR SIX PORTABLE NUCLEAR

WARHEADS THAT THE UZBEKS
HAVE ADMITTED, AND DEFENSE



INTELLIGENCE HAS CONFIRMED,
WENT MISSING SIX MONTHS AGO.

DO YOU KNOW
WHERE THE NUKES ARE?

YES, I DO.
THEY'RE IN KASHMIR,

UNDER WHAT USED TO BE
A MAXIMUM-SECURITY PRISON CAMP.

ALL RIGHT, MS. DEREVKO,

YOU'RE GOING TO LEAD US
INTO THAT PRISON.

I HANDED THOSE CODES
TO SD-6.

YOUR GUILT IS UNFOUNDED.
YOU WERE DOING YOUR JOB.

I'M GOING, DAD.

I AM NOT ABOUT TO LET IRINA
DEREVKO NEAR SIX NUCLEAR WEAPONS

SUPERVISED ONLY BY YOU.

YOU'RE LYING ABOUT THIS!

NONE OF US WILL SURVIVE!

THE ONLY REASON YOU KNOW ABOUT
THE NUKES IS BECAUSE OF ME.



I WANT SOME RESPECT.
WE'LL MISS OUR WINDOW
UNLESS YOU JUMP!

SHUT UP!

RIGHT NOW WE HAVE
SIX SUITCASE NUKES

THAT ARE GOING TO BE ACTIVATED
TOMORROW.

IS THAT CONFIRMED?

CIA DOESN'T HAVE ANY DETAILS.

BOOT CAMP,
THIS IS MOUNTAINEER.

ABORT. LISTEN TO ME, FIGHTER
PLANES ARE IN THE SKY.

YOU HAVE TO LEAVE NOW.

WE'VE GOT THE CORES! TELL THEM
TO CALL OFF THE AIR STRIKES!

THIS IS AGENT VAUGHN.
ABORT THE AIR STRIKES.

REPEAT -- ABORT
THE AIR STRIKES.

Sydney: WHEN I FOUND OUT
MY MOTHER FAKED HER DEATH

20 YEARS AGO,

AFTER MOURNING HER
FOR MOST OF MY LIFE,

SHE WAS STILL ALIVE.

I TRIED TO IMAGINE
WHAT IT WOULD FEEL LIKE

TO STAND IN A ROOM
WITH BOTH OF MY PARENTS AGAIN.

IT SEEMED IMPOSSIBLE.

THAT TWO PEOPLE
WITH SO MUCH...

DECEIT BETWEEN THEM

COULD EVER FIND A WAY
TO BREATHE THE SAME AIR.

AND ALL OF A SUDDEN,
THERE WE WERE,

JUST THE THREE OF US...

WALKING DOWN A DIRT ROAD

IN THE MIDDLE OF KASHMIR.

WHEN WE WERE OUT THERE
WORKING AS A TEAM,

IT WAS COMFORTING.

WE WERE AMBUSHED,

AND WE FOUGHT BACK.

AND WE SURVIVED.

YEAH, MY PARENTS AND I SORT OF
WENT THROUGH THE SAME THING.

THANKS.

THANKS A LOT.

OH.

VAUGHN TOLD ME DEVLIN
APPROVED YOU TO DO RESEARCH

IF YOU PASS THE MOGLIN-REICH
ALLEGIANCE TEST.

THIS IS YOUR S.O.P.

ON WHERE TO MEET
FOR THE PICKUP.

REMEMBER TO DROP --

DROP IT IN THE LARGEST --
YEAH.

Francie: HEY.
WHAT'S UP?

WHERE YOU BEEN?

OKAY, LISTEN, EVERY TIME
I WALK IN THE ROOM LATELY,

YOU GUYS HUSH UP AS IF I'M
INTERRUPTING SOMETHING.

I MEAN, AM I?
WHAT? NO.

FRANCIE, SERIOUSLY,
WE WERE JUST TALKING.

WHY DON'T YOU HAVE A SEAT?

I CAN'T. I GOTTA --
I FORGOT MY KEYS.

I GOTTA OPEN
THE RESTAURANT.

I'LL SEE YA.

OKAY.

KENDALL'S ALLOWED ME
15 MINUTES HERE.

TWICE A WEEK.

YOU PUT IN THE REQUEST,
DIDN'T YOU,

TO GIVE ME TIME OUT HERE?

YEAH. WE APPRECIATED
YOUR HELP IN KASHMIR.

I NEED YOU TO UNDERSTAND...

I WAS 18 WHEN THE KGB
RECRUITED ME.

FOR A WOMAN TO BE ASKED
TO SERVE HER COUNTRY,

IT WAS A FUTURE,
IT MEANT...

EMPOWERMENT, INDEPENDENCE...

I WAS A FOOL TO THINK THAT
ANY IDEOLOGY

COULD COME
BEFORE MY DAUGHTER.

SYDNEY?

HEY, STAND DOWN!
BACK AWAY NOW!

[ GUNS COCK ]

WHAT IS THIS?

WE HAVE AN ARRANGEMENT.

YES. ONE YOU FAILED
TO LIVE UP TO.

OUR OPERATION IN KASHMIR WAS
A WASTE OF SD-6 RESOURCES.

WE ACQUIRED NOTHING.

[ SARK GAGGING ]

SO, MY QUESTION IS,

HAVE YOU BETRAYED ME,

OR ARE YOU SIMPLY
INCOMPETENT?

THIS INTERROGATION TECHNIQUE
WAS DEVELOPED

BY THE KHMER ROUGE.

MINIMIZE BRUISING
ON POLITICAL PRISONERS

WHEN THEY WERE ALLOWING THEM
TO BE PHOTOGRAPHED...

YOU SEE, IF I PULL THIS
JUST A LITTLE HARDER,

THE GLASS WILL BREAK,

AND I DO NOT WANT
TO DO THAT.

SO TELL ME, DO YOU THINK
THAT WE WERE UNLUCKY

ON OUR FIRST VENTURE
TOGETHER,

OR DO YOU HAVE
ANOTHER PLAN

THAT YOU WANT
TO TELL ME ABOUT?

I DIDN'T BETRAY YOU.

WE AGREED TO COMBINE
OUR EFFORTS.

I SWEAR TO YOU,
THAT'S STILL MY INTENT.

THEN TELL ME,
WHAT WENT WRONG IN KASHMIR?

THE INDIAN WESTERN COMMAND
CARRIED OUT AN AIR STRIKE

ON THE PRF PRISON.

THE RAMBALDI ARTIFACT
WAS DESTROYED.

MY CONTACT IN THE REGION,
GERARD CUVEE,

MISTAKENLY BELIEVES I TIPPED
THE INDIAN AUTHORITIES OFF.

WITH ALL DUE RESPECT, SIR,

COULD THE LEAK HAVE COME
FROM THIS OFFICE?

Michael: SO SLOANE HAS NO IDEA
YOU SABOTAGED THE OPERATION

IN KASHMIR?

IF HE DID, WE WOULDN'T BE
HAVING THIS CONVERSATION.

SINCE SARK FAILED TO DELIVER
ON HIS PROMISE WITH SLOANE,

THEIR PARTNERSHIP
MAY NOT LAST FOR LONG.

UNFORTUNATELY,
IT ISN'T OVER YET.

SLOANE IS SENDING ME
TO PARIS

WITH SARK TONIGHT.

WHY?

THE ECHELON
SATELLITE SYSTEM --

PHONE CALLS, E-MAILS, FAXES
FROM AROUND THE WORLD

ARE FILTERED THROUGH A PROGRAM
CAPABLE OF FLAGGING

KEY WORDS
ON AN NSA WATCH LIST.

ECHELON HAS BEEN
IMMEASURABLY SUCCESSFUL

IN INDICATING THREATS
TO OUR NATIONAL SECURITY.

MR. SARK HAS PROVIDED US
WITH NEW INTELLIGENCE

INDICATING THAT AN ENEMY
OF THIS COUNTRY

MAY HAVE ACQUIRED THE ABILITY
TO ACCESS THIS TERMINAL.

GERARD CUVEE --

FORMER LEADER OF THE PEOPLE'S
REVOLUTIONARY FRONT --

A CRIME SYNDICATE
WHOSE HEADQUARTERS

WERE RAIDED BY INDIAN AUTHORITY
LAST WEEK.

MR. SARK?

MY DEALINGS WITH MR. CUVEE
GO BACK SEVERAL YEARS.

HE ONCE SHOWED ME
AN ECHELON ACCESS TERMINAL

HE STOLE FROM THE NSA

THAT HE KEEPS
AT A FRONT COMPANY IN PARIS.

RECENT ATTENTION
BY LOCAL AUTHORITIES

HAVE LED CUVEE TO BELIEVE
THAT I BETRAYED HIM.

THEREFORE, HE IS SURE
TO MOVE THE TERMINAL

TO AN UNDISCLOSED
LOCATION.

SURVEILLANCE TEAM INTERCEPTED
AN OPERATIONS LOG INDICATING

THAT AN ARMORED TRANSPORT
HAS BEEN SCHEDULED

FOR A PICKUP
TOMORROW AFTERNOON.

WE BELIEVE THAT'S WHEN
THEY'LL BE MOVING THE TERMINAL.

SYDNEY, YOU AND SARK WILL
INTERCEPT THE CONVOY EN ROUTE

AND BRING THE TERMINAL
BACK HERE SAFELY.

IF SLOANE GETS A HOLD
OF THAT TERMINAL,

WELL, THE ALLIANCE WILL BE ABLE
TO EAVESDROP ON CORPORATIONS,

LAW ENFORCEMENT,
POLITICAL CAMPAIGNS...

THE POTENTIAL FOR BLACKMAIL
AND INSIDER TRADING

WOULD BE UNLIMITED.

WHAT'S MY COUNTER-MISSION?

I'LL HAVE TECHNICAL SERVICES
PROVIDE YOU WITH A SECURE

DELETION PROGRAM. YOU'LL UPLOAD
IT ONTO THE ECHELON TERMINAL.

WHEN SD-6 TURNS IT ON,

IT'LL WIPE
THE HARD DRIVE CLEAN.

SLOANE WILL THINK CUVEE
INSTALLED A FAIL-SAFE

TO PREVENT...

UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS.
UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS.

I'LL DO IT
ON THE RETURN FLIGHT.

SARK AND I ARE TRAVELLING
SEPARATELY TO MAKE SURE

NO ONE CAN CONNECT HIM
TO SD-6.

OH, BY THE WAY,
I'M MEETING WITH WILL TOMORROW

TO HELP HIM PREP
FOR HIS PSYCH EVALUATION.

THANK YOU.

AND I LIKE IT.

WHAT?
YOUR NEW SUIT.

OH. IT'S NOT NEW.

I JUST...DON'T WEAR IT
THAT OFTEN.

I CAME FROM A FUNERAL.

ALICE'S FATHER DIED.

I'M SORRY.

HOW IS SHE DOING?

OKAY.

WELL, NOT REALLY,
BUT SHE'LL BE FINE.

LET ME KNOW
IF YOU NEED ANYTHING.

UH, MISS BRISTOW! HI.

UH...I KNOW YOU HAVE
A PLANE TO CATCH,

BUT YOU MIND DOING
A FAVOR FOR ME?
SURE.

UM, OKAY, WILL YOU TAKE
SOME SNAPSHOTS AROUND PARIS

WITH THAT FOR ME?

UH, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE
TO MAINTAIN OUR COVER

FOR OUR LOVED ONES.
WELL, MY MOM THINKS

I RUN GLOBAL I.T. SERVICES
FOR THE BANK,

SO I LIKE TO COMPOSITE MYSELF
INTO PHOTOGRAPHS FOR HER.

OH, I ACTUALLY HAVE
AN EXAMPLE RIGHT HERE.

THERE'S ME
AND THE SPHINX. HA HA HA.

OF COURSE, I NEVER ACTUALLY
LEFT SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA,

BUT EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE
I LIKE TO SHOW MY MOM

ALL THE PLACES I'VE NEVER
REALLY BEEN TO, SO...

WOULD YOU MIND?

NOT AT ALL.

OKAY. HAVE A SAFE TRIP.

I DON'T LIKE TO FLY
PERSONALLY,

BUT, UH, THAT'S WHY
I'M HERE AND YOU'RE...

I'VE GOT SOME STUFF
TO DO.

CONVOY'S ON THE MOVE.
E.T.A. -- FIVE MINUTES.

I'M RIGHT BEHIND THE TRUCK.

COPY THAT.
I'M IN POSITION.

YOU KNOW, IT'S A PITY
WE'RE TRAVELING SEPARATELY.

WE COULD'VE USED
THE OPPORTUNITY

TO GET TO KNOW
EACH OTHER BETTER.

YEAH, I'M BROKEN UP
ABOUT THAT, TOO.

YOU'RE SURPRISINGLY ADEPT AT
KEEPING YOUR CURIOSITY IN CHECK.

DON'T FLATTER YOURSELF.

I'M REFERRING TO THE FACT
THAT YOUR MOTHER AND I

WORKED TOGETHER
BEFORE I ARRIVED HERE --

BEFORE SHE WENT INTO HIDING.

I LEARNED A LOT FROM HER.

IN SOME WAYS, I THINK OF HER
AS A MOTHER MYSELF.

LISTEN TO ME --

YOU AND I HAVE NOTHING
IN COMMON.

WE'RE NOT FRIENDS,

WE'RE NOT GOING
TO BECOME FRIENDS,

AND YOU CERTAINLY WON'T
BAIT ME WITH STORIES

ABOUT A WOMAN
I NEVER KNEW.

I DON'T GET ANY CONSIDERATION
AT ALL FOR THE FACT

THAT I DIDN'T TELL SLOANE THAT
YOU CONSPIRED TO KILL HIM?

WE'VE COVERED THIS.

YOU CAN'T EXPOSE ME
WITHOUT EXPOSING YOURSELF.

NOW I'M ALMOST INTO THE CITY'S
TRAFFIC CONTROL NETWORK.

GET YOUR HEAD INTO THE GAME.

HOW ARE YOUR WOUNDS
HEALING?

YOU OBVIOUSLY HAD THE CHANCE
TO BETRAY US IN KASHMIR,

BUT YOU DIDN'T.

I DON'T IMAGINE THAT MEANS
YOU'VE DECIDED TO TRUST ME.

OUR PREVIOUS...DEALINGS

WOULD INDICATE
THAT YOUR STRATEGY HERE

MAY BE LONG-TERM.

SO FOR NOW I TRUST THAT
YOUR BEHAVIOR IS PREDICTABLE.

BY "PREVIOUS DEALINGS,"
YOU MEAN OUR MARRIAGE?

YOU KNOW, TECHNICALLY,

WE MAY STILL BE
HUSBAND AND WIFE.

I'M SORRY.

SYDNEY'S ON ASSIGNMENT
WITH SARK.

IT'S MY BELIEF THAT HE'S
STILL WORKING FOR YOU --

THAT YOU'VE COORDINATED
YOUR EFFORTS

TO INFILTRATE BOTH SD-6
AND THE CIA.

WHATEVER YOU HAVE IN MIND,
I PROMISE YOU,

IT WON'T WORK.

SO I'M GOING
TO OFFER YOU A DEAL.

I'LL SEE TO IT
THAT YOU'RE RELOCATED

TO A PRIVATE RESIDENCE
ON PUGET SOUND

UNDER 24-HOUR SURVEILLANCE,
OF COURSE,

BUT THE ILLUSION OF FREEDOM
IS BETTER THAN NONE AT ALL.

IN EXCHANGE?

IN EXCHANGE, YOU'LL CONFESS,

TELL US WHAT YOU'RE REALLY
DOING HERE,

WHY YOU'VE TURNED YOURSELF IN.

I'LL GIVE YOU TIME

TO CONSIDER MY OFFER.

I SEE YOU.

I'M TURNING THE INTERSECTION
TO RED.

IT IS 2-FOR-1 DAY HERE
AT MARSHALL'S TECH EMPORIUM.

NOT ONLY IS THIS MAGNETIC
SHAPE CHARGE CAPABLE

OF PENETRATING TWO METERS
OF ARMORED STEEL,

BUT ACT NOW,
IT WILL ALSO COME EQUIPPED

WITH A SECONDARY TEAR GAS
MUNITION WHICH WILL DISABLE

THE GUARDS INSIDE THE TRUCK.
OPERATORS STANDING BY. HELLO!

I'M MOVING IN TO DISABLE
THE ESCORT CAR.

Sydney: COPY THAT.

[ BEEP ]

[ MEN COUGHING ]

POLICE! POLICE!

[ Yelling in French ]
POLICE! POLICE!

IT'S EMPTY.
THE TERMINAL'S NOT THERE.

THE TRUCK'S A DECOY.

[ COUGHING ]

[ CAR ALARM WAILING ]

GET IN THE CAR!

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

Jack: I GOT YOUR MESSAGE.

YES, JACK, COME IN.
I WANT YOU TO MEET SOMEONE.

JACK BRISTOW,
THIS IS ARIANA KANE.

MS. KANE IS THE HEAD OF
ALLIANCE COUNTERINTELLIGENCE.

SHE IS THE ONE WHO PLUGGED
THE LEAK LAST YEAR AT SD-9.

IMPRESSIVE WORK,

PARTICULARLY CONSIDERING
THE GUILTY PARTY

ATTEMPTED TO FRAME YOU
AS THE MOLE.

MEN ALWAYS
CALL WOMEN CRAZY

WHEN THEY'RE CAUGHT
WITH THEIR PANTS DOWN.

MS. KANE IS HERE
TO INVESTIGATE THE EVENTS

LEADING UP TO EMILY'S
DISAPPEARANCE

AND THE SUBSEQUENT ATTEMPTS
TO BLACKMAIL ME.

HOW MUCH HAVE YOU
SHARED WITH HIM?

HE KNOWS EVERYTHING I KNOW.

I'M AWARE OF YOUR REPUTATION
AS A FIRST-CLASS STRATEGIST,

AGENT BRISTOW.

TELL ME, WHERE WOULD YOU BEGIN
THIS INVESTIGATION?

WITH ME.

OVER THE YEARS, ARVIN'S
TRUSTED ME WITH EVERYTHING

I'D NEED TO KNOW
TO BE THE PERPETRATOR.

AND IF HIS STANDING WITHIN
THE ALLIANCE WERE UNDERMINED,

I'D BE A CANDIDATE
TO INHERIT HIS SEAT.

MOTIVE.

WELL, THAT'S A HELL
OF AN ANSWER.

IN ADDITION TO BEING TRUE,
IT'S THE ONLY THING

YOU CAN SAY TO DIMINISH
YOUR VIABILITY AS A SUSPECT.

NOT REALLY. YOUR OBVIOUS
AWARENESS OF GAME THEORY

WOULD INVALIDATE MY APPROACH.

THEREFORE, THE BEST COURSE
OF ACTION FOR ME TO TAKE

AS A SUSPECT
IS TO SIMPLY TELL THE TRUTH.

WELL, AS SOON AS YOU'VE
OFFICIALLY ELIMINATED

THE POSSIBILITY OF AGENT BRISTOW
AS A SUSPECT,

I'M SURE HE'LL BE QUITE HAPPY
TO ASSIST YOU

IN YOUR INVESTIGATION.

OF COURSE.
IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME.

A PLEASURE.

ALL MINE.

YOU EVER HAVE A DREAM
WHERE YOU'RE BACK AT SCHOOL

AND THEY WON'T LET YOU
GRADUATE

BECAUSE YOU FAILED
A TEST?

I HAD THAT LAST NIGHT.

WELL, WE DON'T SCREEN
FOR GENERAL KNOWLEDGE.

IT'S STRICTLY
A PSYCH PROFILE.

SO I CAN'T FAIL,

BUT I CAN FIND OUT
I'M A SOCIOPATH.

YEAH. LISTEN, SOME OF
THE QUESTIONS ON THE TEST

MAY SEEM
A LITTLE SHOCKING.
SHOCKING, HOW?

NO, LIKE THINGS YOU MIGHT
PUNCH SOMEONE OUT AT A BAR

FOR ASKING.

I DON'T WANT TO GET AHEAD
OF MYSELF HERE, BUT, UM,

IF THINGS GO MY WAY,
WHAT'S NEXT?

WELL, YOU'RE CLEARED TO READ
CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS,

AND YOU GET
A GOVERNMENT SALARY,

WHICH ISN'T MUCH.

COMPARED TO WHAT I MAKE NOW,
IT'S...MUCH.

OH, AND JUST BE HONEST.
BECAUSE IF YOU'RE CAUGHT

IN A LIE, YOU'RE
AUTOMATICALLY DISQUALIFIED.

AND SINCE WE DON'T KNOW HOW
OFTEN SD-6 KEEPS TABS ON YOU,

IT'S TOO RISKY TO TAKE THE TEST
AT A FEDERAL BUILDING,

SO WE'VE ARRANGED FOR YOU
TO GO TO ONE

OF OUR OPERATIONAL FRONTS.
NOW, WHEN YOU GET THERE,

THE OFFICER WILL LEAD YOU
IN THE BACK ROOM

WHERE YOU'LL TAKE THE TEST.
HE'LL TELL YOU

THE SHIPPING MANIFEST
WAS LOST IN TRANSIT

AND THAT HE NEEDS YOUR HELP
TO I.D. THE PARCEL.

HE'LL TAKE YOU IN THE BACK ROOM,
AND THAT'S WHERE

YOU'LL TAKE THE TEST.
NOW, THERE'S NO TIME LIMIT,

BUT IT SHOULDN'T TAKE YOU
MORE THAN AN HOUR.

I CAN'T BELIEVE SOME
OF THE QUESTIONS THEY ASKED.

LIKE, IF FORCED TO CHOOSE,
WHO WOULD YOU RATHER KILL --

"A," YOUR MOTHER,
"B," YOUR FATHER,

"C," YOURSELF.
AND "NONE OF THE ABOVE"

WASN'T EVEN AN OPTION.

I MEAN, WHAT THE HELL
DOES THAT MEASURE?

HOW YOU SEE YOURSELF
IN RELATION TO AUTHORITY.

BASICALLY, WHETHER OR NOT
YOU'D BE WILLING

TO SACRIFICE YOUR LIFE
FOR YOUR COUNTRY.

NOW, THAT ACTUALLY
MAKES SENSE.

BY THE WAY, I GOT FRANCIE
SEASON TICKETS

TO THE HOLLYWOOD BOWL FOR HER
BIRTHDAY FROM BOTH OF US.

OH, GREAT, THANK YOU.

YOU KNOW, SHE WAS RIGHT
ABOUT WHAT SHE SAID.

WE USED TO TELL EACH OTHER
EVERYTHING.

NOW WE DON'T. I CAN'T
TELL HER ANYTHING.

I KNOW. I HATE IT, TOO.

BUT AFTER DANNY
AND WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU,

I'VE ACCEPTED THE FACT
THAT IT'S A GESTURE OF LOVE

TO DECEIVE THE PEOPLE
I CARE ABOUT.

WHAT?

HEY, WHAT ARE YOU
DOING HERE?

RITA, RIGHT?

ALICE, HI.

HI.
HEY, RITA.

HEY. THIS IS WILL.
HEY.

HEY. MICHAEL.
NICE TO MEET YOU.

MICHAEL,
NICE TO MEET YOU.
HI. ALICE.

HI.

MICHAEL AND I WORK TOGETHER
AT THE STATE DEPARTMENT.

OH, GREAT.

I WAS SO SORRY
TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR DAD.

OH. THANK YOU.

MICHAEL'S BEEN AMAZING.

HE'S...

HE'S AN AMAZING GUY.

OH, RITA,
WE'RE GOING TO BE LATE.

WE GOT TO GO MEET FRIENDS.
I'M SORRY.

Alice:
OH, IT'S NO PROBLEM.

IT WAS NICE RUNNING
INTO YOU GUYS.

YOU TOO.

BYE.
SEE YOU.

THE ECHELON ACCESS TERMINAL
THAT YOU RETRIEVED IN PARIS

WAS RIGGED WITH
A BOOT SECTOR FAIL-SAFE.

WHEN WE TURNED IT ON,
THE HARD DRIVE WAS ERASED.

THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT MR. CUVEE
IS NO LONGER IN POSSESSION

OF THE TERMINAL.

THE BAD NEWS IS THAT HE MAY
STILL HAVE A WAY

TO ACCESS ECHELON.

ONE OF CUVEE'S MEN
PLACED A CALL

TO A DATA STORAGE FACILITY
IN LONDON.

THIS FACILITY CATERS
TO HIGH-END CORPORATE CLIENTS.

IT'S LIKELY CUVEE DUPLICATED
THE ECHELON SOFTWARE

AND HAD THEM STORED
IN A SECURE SERVER THERE.

IF HE DID, HE COULD USE THEM
TO REVERSE ENGINEER

A NEW TERMINAL THERE.

SYDNEY, YOU'LL ACQUIRE THE FILES
AND DELETE THEM

FROM CUVEE'S BACKUP SERVER.

MR. SARK HAS PROVIDED MARSHALL
WITH TECH SPECS

ON THE DATA STORAGE
FACIL--

ACTUALLY, UM, YEAH,
ACTUALLY, ABOUT THAT --

THE, UH, THE FACILITY IS WIRED
WITH ELECTRONIC COUNTERMEASURES

AND THE COMPUTER'S SECURED VIA
MILITARY-GRADE ENCRYPTION,

SO ANY DECRYPTION DEVICE
OR RADIO CONTACT

WOULD BE DETECTED,
SO THE ONLY WAY

THE TERMINAL COULD BE
ACCESSED IS BY SOMEONE

WHO KNOWS HOW TO CRACK
POLYMORPHIC ALGORITHMS.

MY MATH SKILLS MAY BE
ABOVE AVERAGE,

BUT I CAN'T DO ADVANCED
CALCULUS IN MY HEAD.

THAT'S WHY YOU'RE GOING IN
WITH MARSHALL.

MARSHALL WHO?

WAIT A MINUTE. WHAT?

YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE
QUALIFIED TO HACK THE SERVER

WITHOUT THE AID
OF AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE.

B-BUT I'M, UH, I CAN'T GO
BECAUSE I'M NOT FIELD RATED.

YOU WILL BE
BY THE TIME YOU LEAVE.

SARK WILL HELP YOU REVIEW
THE OPERATIONAL PARAMETERS,

AND I'M SURE SYDNEY WILL TAKE
VERY GOOD CARE OF YOU.

WE GOT YOUR DEBRIEF.

IF MARSHALL SUCCEEDS IN COPYING
THOSE SYSTEM FILES,

SLOANE WILL BE ABLE TO REBOOT
THE ECHELON TERMINAL.

MARSHALL HAS
A PHOTOGRAPHIC MEMORY.

ONCE THE FILES FLASH
ACROSS THE SCREEN,

HE'LL REMEMBER THEM.

YES, WE KNOW THAT.

I CAN'T JUST GIVE SD-6
A FAKE MARSHALL.

NO. BUT WE CAN PULL HIM
OUT OF SD-6.

WHAT?

DEVLIN MADE IT CLEAR THAT WE
CANNOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES

ALLOW SD-6
TO ACCESS ECHELON.

AND SABOTAGING THE MISSION
IS TOO RISKY AFTER KASHMIR.

SLOANE COULD START
TO SUSPECT SOMETHING.

WE'VE CONSIDERED
EVERY OPTION, SYD.

THERE'S NO OTHER WAY
TO DO THIS.

[ MICHAEL SIGHS ]

WHEN YOU AND MARSHALL RETURN
FROM LONDON,

WE'LL TAKE HIM
INTO PROTECTIVE CUSTODY.

HE'LL BE TRANSPORTED TO LANGLEY
FOR AN EXTENSIVE DEBRIEF.

AS RIDICULOUS
AS THIS SOUNDS,

SD-6 IS HIS WHOLE LIFE.

IT'S NEVER EASY FINDING OUT
EVERYTHING YOU BELIEVE IN

IS A LIE.

WE'LL DO WHATEVER WE CAN
TO MAKE IT EASIER FOR HIM,

I PROMISE.
AND WHEN HE ADJUSTS,

HE'LL HAVE THE OPTION
TO COME WORK FOR US.

WHAT ABOUT HIS MOTHER?

WILL THEY BE ABLE
TO MAKE CONTACT?

WELL, THAT'LL BE UP
TO MARSHALL,

BUT WE CAN BRING HER INTO
PROTECTIVE CUSTODY, TOO.

WHAT'S MY COVER STORY
WITH SLOANE?

AS FAR AS YOU'LL KNOW,
THE MISSION WENT

WITHOUT A HITCH, AND YOU
SEPARATE AT THE AIRPORT.

WE'LL INTERCEPT MARSHALL
ON HIS WAY HOME.

I SHOULD PACK.

LISTEN, UM, ABOUT THE BAR...

DID YOU SEE
THE SECURITY CAMERA?

YEAH, WE SENT AN AGENT
TO PULL THE TAPES,

SO WE COULDN'T BE TIED
TOGETHER.

GOOD.

ALICE SEEMS REALLY NICE.

SHE SAID THE SAME THING
ABOUT YOU.

HOW LONG HAVE YOU KNOWN
ARVIN SLOANE?

Jack: FOR 30 YEARS.

WHEN WE MET, HE WAS MY SUPERIOR
AT THE CIA.

YES, AND ONCE HE LEFT
THE CIA,

HE INVITED YOU TO WORK
WITH HIM AT SD-6?

YES. WE WERE BOTH DISILLUSIONED
WITH THE U.S. GOVERNMENT.

WE'D BOTH COME TO SEE IT
AS CORRUPT,

AND WE BELIEVED THEN
AS WE DO NOW

THAT THE ALLIANCE WOULD
ULTIMATELY SUCCEED

IN ACHIEVING
GLOBAL DOMINANCE.

YOU AND SLOANE HAVE BEEN
SO CLOSE ALL THESE YEARS.

WHY DO YOU IMAGINE HE RECRUITED
YOUR DAUGHTER INTO SD-6

WITHOUT TELLING YOU?

BECAUSE HE KNEW I WOULD'VE
BEEN OPPOSED TO IT.

TRUST...DOESN'T COME EASILY
TO ARVIN SLOANE.

SO WHILE AT THE TIME,
I MAY NOT HAVE APPROVED,

I NOW ACCEPT THAT HE RECRUITED
SYDNEY TO ENSURE

THAT HE'D NEVER HAVE TO TAKE
MY LOYALTY ON FAITH.

YOU'RE ASKING ME TO BELIEVE
THAT SLOANE

TOOK YOUR DAUGHTER HOSTAGE
TO ENSURE YOUR FRIENDSHIP?

IN OUR LINE OF WORK,
WE CAN'T JUST CRY FOUL

WHEN THINGS
DON'T GO OUR WAY.

WITH WHOM HAVE YOU HAD
INTIMATE CONTACT

OVER THE PAST 10 YEARS,
AGENT BRISTOW?

I-I'M CURIOUS TO KNOW WHERE
YOU'RE GOING WITH THIS.

MORE SECRETS HAVE BEEN
REVEALED THROUGH PILLOW TALK

THAN THROUGH TORTURE.

IF THERE'S A PROSTITUTE
OR A STEWARDESS OUT THERE

YOU THINK MAY HAVE HEARD YOU
TALKING IN YOUR SLEEP,

I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT IT.

THERE IS ONE WAY
FOR YOU TO VERIFY

IF MY NOCTURNAL ACTIVITIES
ARE A SECURITY RISK, MS. KANE,

BUT SOMEHOW I THINK WE'D BOTH
PREFER THE TORTURE.

OOH. HA HA HA.

WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT GENTLEMAN
I MET IN SLOANE'S OFFICE

THIS MORNING??

HE GOT TIRED OF YOUR
BASELESS ACCUSATIONS.

GOOD.

I DON'T TRUST ANYONE
WHO DOESN'T HAVE THE SENSE

TO KNOW
WHEN HE'S BEING INSULTED.

ARE WE THROUGH?

YES.

FOR NOW.

A.P.U. -- SET.

AFT CARGO HEAT --
SET.

HYDRAULIC PUMPS --
SET.

MARSHALL,
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

OH, I, UH, PATCHED INTO
THE IN-FLIGHT PHONE NETWORK

AND LOGGED ONTO
THE ONBOARD COMPUTER.

I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE
THE PILOTS DON'T MISS ANYTHING

IN THE PRE-FLIGHT CHECKLIST.
[ ENGINES WHIRRING ]

WHAT WAS THAT? THAT'S...
THE FLAPS EXTENDING --

TOTALLY ROUTINE,
TOTALLY ROUTINE.

IS THIS REALLY YOUR FIRST TIME
ON A PLANE?

YEAH, I COULDN'T SLEEP LAST
NIGHT, SO I MEMORIZED

THE FAA 747 FLIGHT OPS
MANUAL.

JUST, UH...SORRY.

SORRY. I'M JUST
A LITTLE NERVOUS.

MARSHALL, YOU'RE SWEATING.

MAYBE YOU SHOULD TAKE
YOUR JACKET OFF.

NO! NO WAY, NO WAY.
I, UH, COMPRESSED

A HIGH GLIDE TACTICAL PARACHUTE
IN THE LINING OF MY JACKET

JUST IN CASE.

DON'T WORRY, THOUGH,
MY BELT HYPEREXTENDS

INTO A TANDEM SLING.

JUST LOOP IT AROUND YOUR WAIST.
IT'LL HOLD US BOTH.

THANKS.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO THANK ME.
IT'S, UH,

MY JOB
TO KEEP YOU SAFE.

[ BEEPING ]
WHAT WAS THAT?
THAT IS NOT A PLANE SOUND.

THAT COULD BE BAD.

MARSHALL.

OH, A LITTLE KID
PLAYING...

IS THAT ALL RIGHT?
IS HE ALLOWED TO --

ONBOARD PLAY --
YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO --

SORRY.
CAN I GET A GINGER ALE?

I DON'T THINK I'VE EVER SEEN
YOU LOOK QUITE SO HANDSOME,

MY DARLING.

AND YOU LOOK LOVELY,
MY DEAR. SHALL WE?

WE SHALL.

WHOA.
THIS IS...SO COOL.

HA HA.

HEY, HOW'S IT GOING?
GOOD TO SEE YOU.

HEY, HOW'S IT GOING?
HOW YOU DOING?

HEY, UH, NICE TO SEE YOU.

THE KEY TO DOING THIS RIGHT --
BE INCONSPICUOUS.

RIGHT, SORRY, I JUST, UH,
I DIDN'T --

HEY, HOW'S IT --
YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY HI
TO EVERYBODY.

I'M SORRY.
I THINK I KNOW HER.

Sark: BOX SEATS HAVE BEEN
RESERVED FOR YOU

AT ROYAL HALL
BEHIND THIS MAN --

THATCHER POWELL,
CUVEE'S HEAD OF I.T. SECURITY

AND THE ONLY MAN WITH ACCESS
TO HIS SECURE SERVER.

POWELL ATTENDS
THE LONDON PHILHARMONIC

EVERY THIRD SATURDAY
OF THE MONTH

AND TAKES IN THE PERFORMANCE
WITH A BOTTLE OF CRISTAL.

[ Imitating English accent ]
UM, YOU KNOW,

BACH IS MY FAVORITE
COMPOSER.

ARE YOU SPEAKING TO ME?

I BET YOU DIDN'T KNOW THAT
IN THE LAST PIECE OF MUSIC

THAT BACH EVER COMPOSED,
HE ENCODED HIS NAME

INTO THE MUSICAL NOTES.

HE CERTAINLY WAS THE MOST
INGENIOUS COMPOSER

OF THE BAROQUE MOVEMENT.

WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT
I ALWAYS SAY --

IF IT AIN'T BAROQUE,
DON'T FIX IT.

PARDON MY HUSBAND.
HE DOES TEND TO PRATTLE ON.

SORRY.

ONCE POWELL INGESTS
THE SCOPOLAMINE,

IT'LL TAKE EFFECT
IN ROUGHLY FIVE MINUTES.

THE IDEA IS TO MAKE POWELL
BELIEVE HE MERELY FELL ASLEEP,

SO THE DOSE WILL BE MILD.
THAT MEANS, ONCE YOU STEAL

THE ACCESS CARD, GET ACROSS TOWN
TO THE SERVER FACILITY,

DOWNLOAD THE ECHELON SOFTWARE,
AND RETURN THE KEY

TO HIS POCKET
BEFORE INTERMISSION,

THERE WILL BE A CAR
WAITING FOR YOU OUT FRONT.

PSST.

[ English accent ]
OH, THANK GOODNESS,

YOU'RE STILL OPEN.

I'M MARIE ROBINSON. THIS IS
MY ASSOCIATE FREDERICK FIELDS.

HALLO.

WE WORK FOR JENNINGS
AEROSPACE --

THE NEW YORK OFFICE JUST
PAGED ME AT THE SYMPHONY.

OUR CFO's LAPTOP WAS STOLEN.
WE NEED ACCESS

TO OUR BACKUP SERVER
RIGHT AWAY.

MAY I HAVE YOUR CORPORATE
P.I.N. NUMBER, PLEASE?

86119.

YOU'RE ON SERVER 13,

HE'S LEASED OUT THE ENTIRE

Sloane: JACK BRISTOW
IS NOT THE MAN

RESPONSIBLE
FOR BLACKMAILING ME.

HIS ANSWERS
ARE TOO PERFECT.

I MEAN, HE EVEN GETS ANGRY
WHEN IT MAKES STRATEGIC SENSE.

IF HE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT,
I WOULD EXPECT HIS ANSWERS

TO BE PERFECT. NOW, ARIANA,
UNLESS YOU HAVE EVIDENCE --

CONTRARY TO WHAT YOU TELL
YOUR SUBORDINATES,

WE ARE NOT
THE U.S. GOVERNMENT.

I DON'T NEED PROBABLE CAUSE
TO GO AFTER BRISTOW.

ALL I NEED IS A HUNCH.

WELL, YOUR HUNCHES
NOTWITHSTANDING,

YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT A MAN
WITH WHOM I'VE BEEN PARTNERED

FOR 30 YEARS.

YOU HAVE A BLIND SPOT
WHEN IT COMES TO HIM.

LOOK, HE'S NOT THE FIRST
SUSPECT I INTERVIEWED.

I TALKED TO ALL THE OTHER
HEADS OF THE SD CELLS,

PEOPLE WHO MIGHT'VE TAKEN ISSUE
WITH YOUR PROMOTION

TO THE ALLIANCE.
YOU KNOW WHAT I FOUND?

THEY'RE ALL AFRAID OF YOU,

EXCEPT FOR JACK BRISTOW,

WHO I PROMISE YOU

IS HIDING SOMETHING.

HAVE YOU THOUGHT
ABOUT MY OFFER?

I HAVE NOTHING
TO CONFESS, JACK.

I KNOW YOU FIND IT HARD
TO BELIEVE

I'D TURN MYSELF IN
TO MAKE UP FOR MY MISTAKES.

BUT THAT'S THE REASON...

THE ONLY REASON I'M HERE.

IF THAT'S THE TRUTH, WHY DIDN'T
YOU SIMPLY REFUSE THE OFFER?

I WAS CONSIDERING WHETHER
OR NOT TO...

FABRICATE A CONFESSION
JUST TO GET OUT OF THIS CELL.

YOU WERE RIGHT.

ALTHOUGH OUR MARITAL CONTRACT
WAS FOUNDED

ON FRAUDULENT PRETENSES,

IT'S STILL VALID
UNTIL IT'S ANNULLED,

WHICH MEANS TECHNICALLY

WE ARE STILL MARRIED.

JACK.

THUS FAR I'VE AGREED TO BE
DEBRIEFED ONLY BY SYDNEY.

FROM NOW ON

I'M WILLING
TO TALK TO YOU, TOO.
