Alias (2001–2006): Season 2, Episode 12 - The Getaway - full transcript

Will:
PREVIOUSLY ON "ALIAS"...

I HAVE A CRUSH
ON A GUY AT WORK.

REALLY? WHO IS HE?

SOMEONE IN MY DEPARTMENT.

WE'VE WORKED TOGETHER
FOR ABOUT A YEAR NOW.

YOU'RE KIDDING ME.
WHAT'S HIS NAME?

MICHAEL.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

DOWNGRADING
YOUR NETWORK PRIVILEGES.

PENDING THE OUTCOME
OF MY INVESTIGATION,

YOUR SECURITY CLEARANCE
HAS BEEN REVOKED.



WE HAVE A SITUATION.

ARIANA KANE, HEAD OF ALLIANCE
COUNTERINTELLIGENCE --

SHE'S INVESTIGATING ME

IN CONNECTION WITH THE MURDER
OF EMILY SLOANE.

I DID NOT KILL
EMILY SLOANE,

BUT I DO HAVE SECRETS,

AND THE LAST THING
I CAN AFFORD --

THE LAST THING
SYDNEY CAN AFFORD --

IS SOMEONE DISCOVERING

THAT MY LOYALTY
DOES NOT LIE WITH SD-6.

KANE NEEDS SOMEONE
TO BLAME.

SINCE SHE CAN'T FIND
WHO REALLY MURDERED EMILY,

SHE'S DECIDED
TO BLAME ME.

I DID NOT MURDER
YOUR WIFE,



BUT IF I DON'T FIND
THE PERSON WHO DID,

KANE WILL FRAME ME FOR IT.

I HAVE SOME LEADS.

I NEED YOU
TO PURSUE THEM FOR ME.

CAN I TRUST YOU
TO DO THAT?

OF COURSE.

THIS WILL STAY
BETWEEN US.

[ TELEPHONE RINGS ]

HELLO?

AGENT KANE,
ARVIN SLOANE.

JACK BRISTOW
JUST LEFT MY HOUSE.

Man: I WANT
TO REPORT A MURDER.

Man #2: SIT DOWN.

WHERE WAS THIS MURDER
COMMITTED?

SAN FRANCISCO,
LAST NIGHT.

WHO WAS MURDERED?

[ Whispers ] I HAVE
FIVE NAMES -- ALLIANCE PARTNERS.

I WAS.

I NEED THEIR WHEREABOUTS
AND PHONE RECORDS

FOR THE DATES LISTED.

I'VE INCLUDED
DEAD DROP INSTRUCTIONS.

ASSUME THE USUAL PROTOCOLS
HAVE BEEN COMPROMISED.

TAKE IT EASY.

[ SILENCED GUNSHOT ]

DAD, GET IN!

SYDNEY, WHAT ARE YOU
DOING HERE?

KENDALL CONTACTED ME.

HE WAS WORRIED
BECAUSE YOU HAVEN'T

SIGNALED IN
SINCE LAST NIGHT.

ALLIANCE COUNTERINTELLIGENCE
IS AFTER ME.

ALLIANCE? DAD, WHAT THE HELL
IS GOING ON?

SOMEONE EXTORTED
ABOUT $100 MILLION.

THEY THINK
THAT PERSON IS ME.

Man: MOUNTAINEER,
YOU'VE GOT COMPANY.

TWO VEHICLES --

AN OUTRIDER PARALLELING YOU
ONE BLOCK WEST

AND A PURSUIT VEHICLE.

HOW LONG HAVE YOU KNOWN
ABOUT THIS?

I DIDN'T TELL YOU
BECAUSE IT DIDN'T CONCERN YOU.

IF THE ALLIANCE THINKS
YOU'RE LYING TO THEM,

THEY'LL KILL YOU.
THAT CONCERNS ME.

WHAT CONCERNS ME IS HAVING THEM
SUSPECT YOU'RE MY ACCOMPLICE.

THAT'S WHY
I'VE KEPT YOU OUT OF IT.

TAKE YOUR NEXT LEFT -- NOW!

TAKE YOUR NEXT RIGHT.

YOUR RIDE'S
A HALF A BLOCK AHEAD.

SEVERAL MONTHS AGO,

THE ALLIANCE OFFERED SLOANE
A PARTNERSHIP POSITION.

IN EXCHANGE,
HE HAD TO KILL HIS WIFE.

BECAUSE EMILY HAD LEARNED
THE TRUTH ABOUT SD-6?

HE POISONED HER...

OR SO HE THOUGHT.

SOON AFTER THE FUNERAL,

SLOANE BEGAN RECEIVING
ODD MESSAGES --

MESSAGES DESIGNED
TO INDICATE

THAT HIS EFFORTS
HAD FAILED,

FOLLOWED SOON AFTER
BY A TERRIFYING DELIVERY --

PROOF SHE WAS STILL ALIVE.

AND IN EXCHANGE FOR EMILY,
THEY DEMANDED MONEY.

$100 MILLION,
WHICH THE ALLIANCE PAID,

AND THE BLACKMAILER
KILLED HER ANYWAY.

THE ALLIANCE OBVIOUSLY HAS TO
FIND SOMEONE TO BLAME FOR THIS.

SO WHY FOCUS ON YOU?

I WAS NO MORE A SUSPECT
THAN ANYONE ELSE,

BUT AS THEY EXAMINED
MY CONDUCT,

THEY REALIZED
I HAD SECRETS --

ELEMENTS OF MY ALIBI THAT,
BECAUSE OF OUR WORK FOR CIA,

I CAN'T FULLY JUSTIFY.

AND SLOANE --
DOES HE THINK YOU DID THIS?

I'M NOT CERTAIN.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?
STAY HERE?

FOR THE MOMENT.
I'LL RESEARCH WHAT I CAN.

[ PAGER BEEPS ]

THE MAN I WENT TO MEET
AT THE MOVIE THEATER --

HE HAD INFORMATION
ABOUT THE ALLIANCE,

INTEL I'M NOT SURE
THE CIA CAN ACCESS.

IT'S SD-6.

YOU HAVE TO GO IN.

NO. I'M CALLING IN SICK.
I'M HELPING YOU.

NO, SYDNEY, YOU CAN'T.

THE AGENT HEADING UP
THE INVESTIGATION

IS NOT INTERESTED IN YOU --
NOT YET.

BUT IF YOU DON'T SHOW UP,
YOU WILL AROUSE HER SUSPICIONS.

YOU CAN'T ALLOW THAT
TO HAPPEN.

OKAY, LET'S BE HONEST --

AMONG LIFE EXPERIENCES
TO BE AVOIDED,

GETTING KIDNAPPED DEFINITELY
RANKS NEAR THE TOP.

EXCEPT, ACTUALLY, THIRD GRADE
KIND OF SUCKED, TOO.

THERE WAS THIS WHOLE THING --
LUNCH MONEY THING --

THAT'S ALL RIGHT.

I KIND OF OVERDID IT, BUT...

YOU SAVED MY BACON.
THANK YOU.

MARSHALL, THANK YOU.

DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
IT'S -- OH, UM...

MR. DIXON,

I REALLY NEVER HAVE
AN OCCASION

TO BUY ANOTHER MAN
A PRESENT,

EXCEPT MY FATHER
AT FATHER'S DAY.

UM, BUT --
ANYWAY, IT'S COLOGNE.

THANK YOU.

I THINK
IT'S A REALLY NICE SCENT,

AND IT'S GOING
TO BE NICE ON YOU,

NOT THAT YOU NEED
A NEW SCENT OR ANY--

I MEAN, YOUR NATURAL SCENT'S
REALLY VERY, UH...

MARSHALL?

YOU KNOW,
I'LL BE QUIET NOW.

I APPRECIATE THAT.

ACTUALLY, UM,
MR. SLOANE,

I NOTICE YOU'RE NOT WEARING
THE TIE I GAVE YOU.

THAT'S OKAY.

YOU'RE LOOKING
AT A PROTOTYPE

OF THE TRIAD'S MOST STARTLING
ACHIEVEMENT TO DATE --

THE QUANTUM GYROSCOPE
MISSILE GUIDANCE SYSTEM.

ACCORDING
TO THE PARTIAL SPECIFICATIONS

WE WERE ABLE
TO INTERCEPT,

NOT ONLY IS THIS DEVICE CHEAP
AND EASY TO MANUFACTURE,

BUT IT IS FAR MORE ACCURATE

THAN ANYTHING
IN OUR CURRENT ARSENAL.

IT IS CAPABLE OF TRANSFORMING
A '70s-ERA SCUD

INTO A PRECISION
GUIDED MUNITION

WITH RANGE AND LETHALITY

EQUIVALENT TO THAT
OF A CRUISE MISSILE.

HOW DID WE GET
THESE PHOTOS?

LAST MONTH, SD-5 TASKED
A TEAM OF AGENTS

TO PERFORM A RECON OP

ON THE TRIAD'S R & D LAB
IN NICE, FRANCE.

YOUR TASK IS ACQUISITION.

HERE WE HAVE KARL SCHATZ.

HE'S A COURIER FOR TRIAD,

AND HE'S TRANSPORTING
THE PROTOTYPE TO BERLIN

FOR MASS PRODUCTION.

YOU WILL INTERCEPT IT
EN ROUTE.

THERE IS NO ROOM FOR FAILURE
IN THIS ONE.

YOU CAN IMAGINE
THE CONSEQUENCES

IF ENEMIES OF THE UNITED STATES
ACQUIRE THIS TECHNOLOGY.

THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS
I HATE ABOUT ARVIN SLOANE,

BUT THE THING THAT I HATE
THE MOST IS THE WAY

HE WRAPS HIS CRIMINAL ACTIVITY
IN THE FLAG.

WELL, WE WON'T LET HIM
GET AWAY WITH IT.

BEFORE YOU GO,
WE'LL MAKE A DEFECTIVE COPY

OF THAT GYROSCOPE
FOR YOU TO GIVE TO SD-6.

WE'LL NEED TO SEE
THOSE PHOTOGRAPHS.

DIXON HAS THEM. HE'S ALREADY
ON HIS WAY TO NICE.

THEN WE'LL HAVE TO
GET A TEAM TO FRANCE.

WHEN YOU'RE THROUGH
WITH YOUR MISSION,

MAKE SURE
YOU'RE HOLDING THE GYROSCOPE.

WE'LL DUPLICATE IT ON-SITE.

AND, SYD, YOU SHOULD KNOW
THAT, UH,

WE'VE BEEN DOING EVERYTHING
WE CAN TO HELP YOUR FATHER.

YOU'VE BEEN HELPING
MY FATHER.

YEAH.

YOU KNEW THE ALLIANCE
WAS INVESTIGATING MY FATHER.

YES.
FOR HOW LONG?

TWO WEEKS.

SYD, I UNDERSTAND
YOU'RE UPSET.
YEAH, I AM.

YOUR FATHER EXPLAINED
WHY WE HADN'T TOLD YOU.

NOW THAT I'VE HAD TIME
TO THINK ABOUT THAT --

IT WAS A QUESTION
OF YOUR SAFETY.

HE WAS ALMOST KILLED.
I SAVED HIM.

I DIDN'T WANT YOU
TO HAVE MORE ON YOUR MIND.

WHY ARE YOU WORRYING
ABOUT WHAT'S ON MY MIND?

IT WAS A JUDGMENT CALL.

IT WAS A JUDGMENT CALL
THAT YOU'VE BEEN MAKING

FOR THE PAST THREE MONTHS.

INVOLVING YOU
HAD NO UPSIDE.

THERE'S NO UPSIDE
TO KEEPING ME INFORMED?

YOU DIDN'T TELL ME
ABOUT MANOLO,

OR THAT YOU HAD DISCUSSIONS
WITH MY MOTHER.

YOU DIDN'T EVEN TELL ME

YOU WERE
SEEING ALICE AGAIN.

WAIT. WHAT IS THIS ABOUT?

THIS IS ABOUT ME
BEING TOO OLD TO BE CODDLED.

YOUR LIFE IS COMPLICATED,
SYDNEY.

FORGIVE ME FOR TRYING
TO MAKE IT ANY EASIER.

I DON'T NEED YOU FOR THAT.

Arvin's voice:
JACK, I'M SENDING THIS

THROUGH A SECURE SERVER.
I'M SORRY.

I INFORMED ARIANA KANE

THAT YOU VISITED
MY HOUSE LAST NIGHT,

NOT BECAUSE I BELIEVE
YOU'RE GUILTY -- I DON'T --

BUT BECAUSE I HAD TO.

THIS PAST SUMMER,

WHEN I WAS INITIATED
INTO THE ALLIANCE,

A DEVICE WAS IMPLANTED
INTO MY NECK.

IT WAS INTENDED AS A MEANS
OF ENSURING LOYALTY

AMONG ALLIANCE PARTNERS.

AMONG OTHER THINGS,
THIS DEVICE TRACKS

MY WHEREABOUTS
AS WELL AS MY VITAL SIGNS.

IT ALSO TRANSMITS
MY CONVERSATIONS

BACK TO THE ALLIANCE.

SO YOU SEE,

THEY ALREADY KNEW
YOU'D BEEN TO SEE ME.

YOU OFFERED MANY SUSPECTS,

BUT ALL YOUR LEADS
WERE DEAD ENDS.

NOW I OFFER
ONE OF MY OWN.

LAST YEAR, I MURDERED A MEMBER
OF THE ALLIANCE, JACK --

JEAN BRIAULT.

YOU CAN UNDERSTAND WHY I WAS
RELUCTANT TO REVEAL THIS.

IT IS QUITE POSSIBLE

THAT THE BLACKMAILER
WAS STIRRED BY REVENGE,

THAT HE -- OR SHE --

WAS CLOSE TO BRIAULT.

STAY SAFE, JACK.

GOOD LUCK.

BRIAULT HAS A WIFE
AND AN ADULT SON,

BUT NEITHER WOULD HAVE HAD
THE NECESSARY INSIGHT

TO BLACKMAIL THE ALLIANCE,

AND THE OTHER PARTNERS
CONSIDERED BRIAULT SOFT.

NO ONE WAS SAD
TO SEE HIM GO.

SO YOU HAVE NOTHING.

ARE YOU CONSIDERING
GOING INTO WITNESS PROTECTION?

THAT WOULD LEAVE SYDNEY EXPOSED
WITH NO ONE TO WATCH HER BACK.

YOU'D HAVE TO
TAKE HER WITH YOU.

AND HAVE HER SPEND
THE REST OF HER LIFE

LOOKING OVER HER SHOULDER?
THAT'S NOT AN OPTION.

THEN IF YOU'RE NOT HERE
TO SAY GOODBYE,

WHY DID YOU
BRING THIS TO ME?

I NEED SOMEONE
TO BRAINSTORM WITH.

SURELY THE CIA HAS TEAMS
WHO SPECIALIZE IN THESE MATTERS.

FORENSICS, PROFILERS...

YES, THEY DO.

HAVE INFORMATION RESOURCES

PULL EVERYTHING THEY HAVE
ON BRIAULT.

I UNDERSTAND YOU HAVE REQUESTED
SYDNEY BRISTOW'S COMPUTER.

WELL, THREE MONTHS AGO,
AGENT DIXON REPORTED EVIDENCE

SUGGESTING SHE WAS
A DOUBLE AGENT.

THAT WAS A MISUNDERSTANDING.

DIXON CAME UPON SYDNEY
AS SHE WAS EXECUTING

AN OPERATION
THAT JACK HAD AUTHORIZED.

YES, I READ YOUR REPORT.

I THINK EITHER SHE WAS
AN ACCOMPLICE TO HIS BLACKMAIL

OR ELSE THE TWO OF THEM HAVE
BEEN UP TO SOMETHING MORE...

LONG-TERM.

YOU MUST HAVE NOTICED
THAT BRISTOW FREQUENTLY

ASSIGNS HIS DAUGHTER
TO OPERATIONS OF HIS OWN DESIGN.

SYDNEY BRISTOW
IS AN EXCELLENT AGENT.

ALL THE MORE REASON

HE WOULD ENLIST HER HELP.

ONCE YOU RECOVER
THE GYROSCOPE,

YOU AND DIXON WILL SEPARATE
FOR YOUR FLIGHTS HOME.

OUR TEAM WILL BE SET UP
IN THIS UTILITY ROOM,

WHERE THEY'LL DUPLICATE
THE GYROSCOPE.

ANY QUESTIONS?

MAYBE YOU SHOULD
GO OVER IT AGAIN.

IT'S A PRETTY
COMPLICATED PLAN.

MAYBE YOU COULD
MAKE IT EASIER.

OKAY, LOOK, I DON'T WANT TO BE
HERE ANY MORE THAN YOU DO --

HEY, LOOK WHO'S JOINING YOU
IN FRANCE.
HEY.

"HEY"? THREE MONTHS
IN THE HOSPITAL,

I GET A "HEY"?
HOW ABOUT A LITTLE SUGAR?

I'M GLAD YOU'RE BACK.

OH, THANK YOU.

AND THANK YOU
FOR THE PLANT, BY THE WAY.

AMAZINGLY, I'VE BEEN ABLE
TO KEEP IT ALIVE.

ALL RIGHT, BRING ME
UP TO SPEED. WHAT'S OUR PLAN?

I SHOULD GET
TO MY PLANE.

I'LL SEE YOU
IN FRANCE.

OKAY.

EXCUSEZ-MOI, MONSIEUR.

UNE CONTRIBUTION?

MONSIEUR.

[ COIN CLINKS ]

HA HA HA. MERCI BEAUCOUP.

NOTHING YET, SYD.

NO SIGN OF THE COURIER.

COPY THAT.

JUST LET ME KNOW
WHEN TO MOVE.

YOU KNOW WHAT?

WHAT?

I'VE ALREADY MADE
47 EUROS.

[ COIN CLINKS ]

MERCI.

HEY.

YOU SURE YOU DON'T WANT
TO TALK ABOUT THIS?

THERE'S NOTHING
TO TALK ABOUT.

I SHARE MY FIGHTS
WITH YOU.
NO, YOU DON'T.

YEAH, I DO. REMEMBER WHEN
ALAN PISSED IN THE LIVING ROOM?

THAT WAS YOUR DOG.
YEAH, BUT I WAS ANGRY
ABOUT IT,

AND I LET YOU KNOW
HOW UPSET I WAS.

I APPRECIATE YOU TRYING
TO CHEER ME UP.

ALL RIGHT, HERE'S A THOUGHT --
TELL HER HOW YOU FEEL.

I KNOW, I KNOW.

I WAS THE ONE WHO SAID
THIS IS A LINE YOU DON'T CROSS,

BUT THAT WAS
BEFORE I NEARLY DIED,

AND YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT
THE WHITE LIGHT AND ALL THAT?

NO. THEY'RE WRONG.

IT'S DARKNESS.

DARKNESS.

I UNDERSTAND.

Dixon: GAME TIME, SYD.
HERE COMES OUR GUY.

GYROSCOPE IS
IN A SHOULDER HARNESS

UNDER HIS LEFT PEC. YOU CAN USE
THE ARTFUL DODGER.

RIGHT.

Marshall: NOW,
IF IT'S NOT IN HIS BRIEFCASE

AND IT'S IN HIS POCKET,

HERE IS A LITTLE GOODY
EVERY PICKPOCKET COULD USE.

I LIKE TO CALL THIS BABY
THE ARTFUL DODGER.

YOU KNOW,
AFTER THAT MOVIE, UM...

"OLIVER!"

RIGHT. "PLEASE, SIR,
CAN I HAVE SOME MORE?"

I LOVE THAT MOVIE.
IT'S A GOOD ONE.

SO, BASICALLY, YOU JUST
TURN IT LIKE THAT,

SLIP IT ON,
TURN IT AROUND,

AND THIS LITTLE GUY
WILL CUT THROUGH ANYTHING.

DAMN IT.
I LIKED THIS TIE.

EXCUSEZ-MOI, MONSIEUR --

UNE CONTRIBUTION
POUR LES ENFANTS?

NON, MERCI.

MONSIEUR --
POUR LES ENFANTS, MONSIEUR.

BETTER HURRY, SYD.

SYD, MOVE.

HOW YOU DOING?

[ BEEPING ]

[ SPEAKS FRENCH ]

IT WASN'T ME.

[ SPEAKS FRENCH ]

[ METAL DETECTOR BEEPS ]

DAMN MACHINE. THAT HAPPENS
EVERY TIME I GO THROUGH THESE.

[ SPEAKS FRENCH ]

WHATEVER.

AT JFK,
I WENT THROUGH FIVE TIMES.

THEY LITERALLY HAD ME
TAKE OFF MY SHIRT.

BASE OPS,
THIS IS BOY SCOUT.

MOUNTAINEER HAS
JUST DELIVERED THE PACKAGE.

WE'RE PROCEEDING
WITH THE COPY.

WE'RE ESTIMATING TWO HOURS
TILL THE DUPLICATE'S READY.

LISTEN, UH,
DO YOU WANT TO GO TO DINNER?

WHEN WE WERE DRIVING IN TOWN,
I SAW THIS PLACE --

ROUSSEAU,
I THINK IT'S CALLED.

VAUGHN, WE --

WE CAN'T DO THAT.

WHY NOT?

WELL...

FOR A MILLION REASONS.

IF ALLIANCE SECURITY
SEES US TOGETHER,

THEY'LL KILL US.

THE NEAREST ALLIANCE CELL
IS IN ZURICH.

THE CIA TRACKS
SD-6 SECURITY SECTION.

THERE HAVEN'T BEEN ANY SIGNALS,
NO MOVEMENT.

YOU'RE SERIOUS.

WE'VE BEEN TO RESTAURANTS
AND SAT NEAR EACH OTHER.

WE'VE MET IN PARKS
AND CONVENIENCE STORES,

AND ALL OF THEM IN L.A.,

WHERE WE ARE MUCH MORE LIKELY
TO BE SEEN.

TWO THINGS --

ONE, I THINK
IT'S NOT THAT GREAT A RISK,

AND TWO, I AM HUNGRY.
I'M STARVING.

I MEAN, WE'RE GOING
TO BE TOGETHER ANYWAY.

WHY CAN'T WE BE EATING?

AREN'T YOU HUNGRY?

YEAH, I'M HUNGRY.

LET'S DO IT.

YEAH?

I'M GOING TO CHANGE.

HA HA. THAT'S A GOOD IDEA.

OKAY.

AND?

WE'RE GOING TO DINNER.

OOH! HA HA.

I'M GOING TO KEEP
MY COMM CHANNEL OPEN.

I NEED YOU TO MONITOR
THE R.F. FREQUENCY.

GOT IT. OKAY. IN EXCHANGE,
I'LL TAKE AN éCLAIR.

NO, I'M SERIOUS.

ANY SUSPECT SIGNAL, I WANT
TO KNOW ABOUT IT -- ANYTHING.

IF THEY'RE SMALL,
BRING AT LEAST TWO.

HOW WE DOING OVER HERE?

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

SYDNEY BRISTOW
JUST LEFT THE AIRPORT

ACCOMPANIED BY A MAN.

NOT DIXON.

FIND OUT WHO HE IS.

[ SPEAKING FRENCH ]

WELL, YOU SPEAK FRENCH
ALMOST AS WELL AS I DO.

MADEMOISELLE.

THANK YOU.

SEE WHAT YOU LIKE,
AND I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

MERCI.

[ SPEAKS FRENCH ]

I THINK WINE
WOULD HELP THE SITUATION.

I WAS JUST THINKING
THE SAME THING. S'IL VOUS PLAîT.

THERE MUST BE A DOZEN WAYS
TO BLACKMAIL THE ALLIANCE,

ALL OF THEM FAR LESS ELABORATE
THAN THIS ONE.

SO WE CAN ASSUME
A SECONDARY OBJECTIVE

WAS TO MAKE ARVIN SUFFER.

SOMEONE HARBORING
AN ACUTE HATRED...

MEANING
IT COULD BE ANYONE.

DOES THE ALLIANCE HAVE

ANY PERMANENT OPERATIONS
IN PERU?

PERU? NO. WHY?

JEAN BRIAULT,

WHENEVER HE TRAVELED,
HE WOULD USE HIS CREDIT CARD,

EXCEPT HERE.

SIX TIMES THIS PAST YEAR,
HE WENT TO LIMA,

BUT NOT
A SINGLE TRANSACTION.

I THINK
THERE'S A CUSTOMS STATEMENT.

SIX ARRIVALS
INTO CHAVEZ AIRPORT.

EACH TIME, HE DECLARED
$70,000 IN CASH.

WHY? WHAT'S HE DOING
WITH ALL THAT MONEY?

NO INVESTMENTS,
HE'S NOT BUYING ART.

IS IT POSSIBLE HE WAS
RUNNING HIS OWN SYNDICATE?

ONE THE ALLIANCE
WASN'T AWARE OF.

HE CAN'T WIRE HIS AGENTS
OPERATIONAL MONEY --

THE ALLIANCE
WILL SPOT THAT --

SO HE BANKROLLS THEM
IN PERU.

ASSUME WE'RE RIGHT.

WHY WOULD THEY WANT
REVENGE FOR HIS MURDER?

AHEM.

I'LL HAVE CUSTOMS
SEND OVER

ALL ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES
INTO PERU FOR ONE WEEK

ON EITHER SIDE
OF BRIAULT'S VISITS.

WHEN I WAS YOUR WIFE...

I WOULD MEET MY CASE OFFICER
IN HIS HOTEL ROOM.

I SUGGEST YOU FIND OUT
WHERE BRIAULT STAYED

AND PULL THE HOTEL
SECURITY FOOTAGE.

[ CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS ]

SO I HEARD YOU
ON THE PHONE WITH BASE OPS.

YOUR CODE NAME
IS BOY SCOUT.

HA HA. YEAH.

WHY?

UM, IT GOES BACK TO CST --
CLANDESTINE SERVICE TRAINING.

YOU DON'T WANT
TO HEAR THIS.

VAUGHN.
OKAY.

THE BOY SCOUTS
HAVE A MOTTO --

ALWAYS BE PREPARED.

ON MY FIRST DAY,
I SHOWED UP,

AND I HAD FORGOTTEN
MY FIELD MANUAL,

SO THE INSTRUCTOR SAID,
"THAT IS YOUR ONE SCREWUP.

FROM THEN ON,
YOU'D BETTER BE PREPARED."

Eric: THIS STORY
IS A DISASTER.

JUST TELL HER SHE'S PRETTY.
ARE YOU AN IDIOT?

OKAY, I'M GOING
TO TURN YOU OFF NOW.

GOODBYE.

SORRY.

Man: HE'S NOT SD-6.

Man #2: CHECK U.S. DMV.

WHAT MAKES YOU THINK
HE'S AMERICAN?

WHAT MAKES YOU THINK
HE ISN'T?

WHO'S OUR MYSTERY MAN?

TELL ME ABOUT YOUR PETS.

WHAT?

YOUR PETS. I WANT TO KNOW ABOUT
EVERY PET YOU'VE EVER HAD.

LOOK AT THAT.

MICHAEL VAUGHN,

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE.

SON OF A BITCH.

HE'S CIA.

PLAYING POOL.

I CAN SEE IT.

WE SHOULD PLAY SOMETIME.

SO, YOU LIKED EVERYTHING?

C'éTAIT TRèS BON. MERCI.

PARFAIT.

SO, UH, IT IS TOO LATE FOR YOU
TO SET OUT FOR L'AVIGNON,

AND, UH,
YOU HAD MUCH TO DRINK.

UPSTAIRS, I HAVE AN INN,

AND TONIGHT,
YOU ARE MY GUESTS. PLEASE.

TAKE YOUR TIME.

MERCI.

DID YOU ASK HIM
TO DO THAT?

THERE ARE SO MANY
ISSUES WITH THIS,

I DON'T KNOW
WHERE TO BEGIN.

HOLD ON A SECOND.

I THINK WE SHOULD HAVE
AN OPEN MIND ABOUT THIS.

AN OPEN MIND.

IT'D BE RUDE TO OVERLOOK
SUCH A GENEROUS OFFER

WITHOUT PROPER CONSIDERATION.

I WOULDN'T DREAM OF IT.

OKAY.

BUT THERE ARE
CLEARLY ISSUES.

YES. I DON'T DISAGREE.

OKAY.

JEFF, RIGHT ON TIME.

[ TELEPHONE RINGS ]

GO AHEAD, BASE OPS.

INFOSEC JUST CALLED.

INTERPOL REPORTED
A NETWORK INTRUSION.

FIVE MINUTES LATER,
SOMEONE HACKED INTO U.S. DMV

AND DOWNLOADED
VAUGHN'S INFO.

BOTH ATTACKS ORIGINATED
FROM NICE.

BOY SCOUT, DO YOU COPY?

BOY SCOUT,
THIS IS FIELD STATION.

DO YOU RESPOND?
BOY SCOUT.

HEY, WHAT'S THE NAME
OF THE RESTAURANT?

WHERE THEY ARE HAVING DINNER --
WHAT'S THE NAME?

MONSIEUR, VOUS AVEC
UN TéLéPHONE.

MERCI.

HELLO?
YOU'VE BEEN MADE.
GET OUT OF THERE NOW.

SYD, BEHIND YOU!

GO! GO!

YOUR GUN --
TOSS IT OVER!

ON YOUR KNEES!
HANDS BEHIND YOUR HEAD!

DOWN!

DOWN!
GET DOWN!

POTESH, JONATHAN,

I.D. 6-TANGO-5,
CHARLIE DAVID.

PATCH ME THROUGH TO LOS ANGELES,
ARIANA KANE.

THIS IS KANE. HELLO?

HELLO?

[ HANGS UP ]

TAKE THE CAR.
I'LL HAVE WEISS PICK ME UP.

I'LL PICK UP THE COPY
OF THE GYROSCOPE

BEFORE I GET
ON THE PLANE.

NO, WE'RE ABORTING
THE COUNTERMISSION.

WHEN THESE GUYS DON'T SHOW UP,
SD-6 IS GOING TO INVESTIGATE.

THIS IS THE ONE TIME
WE CAN'T DECEIVE THEM.

WE HAVE TO GIVE SD-6
WHAT THEY WANT,

AS DANGEROUS AS THAT IS.
YOU KNOW THAT.

WE WERE SO STUPID.

IT'S MY FAULT.

THAT'S NOT TRUE.

[ DISTANT SIREN WAILING ]

YOU HAVE TO GO.

I'LL SEE YOU BACK IN L.A.

HEY.

HEY.

THIS YOUR, UH,
DEBRIEF FOR KENDALL?

YEAH.

OKAY, YOU CAN'T
SHOW HIM THIS.

NO, I'M SERIOUS.
IF KENDALL SEES THIS --

HE NEEDS TO KNOW WHY
SD-6 HAS THE REAL GYROSCOPE.

I AGREE.
I THINK SO, TOO,

BUT THIS REQUIRES
A LITTLE CREATIVITY.

LOOK, TELL HIM
IT WAS MY FAULT, OKAY?

TELL HIM THAT, UM,
GRINDING THE LENSES

TOOK A LITTLE BIT LONGER
THAN EXPECTED,

AND WE WEREN'T ABLE
TO MAKE SYDNEY'S PLANE.

I WON'T LET YOU
COVER FOR ME.

I'M NOT, BUT IT'S
PARTIALLY MY FAULT, TOO.

I'M THE ONE THAT TOLD YOU
TO TAKE HER ON A DATE.

YOU TOLD ME
TO TELL HER HOW I FEEL.

WHATEVER.

I'M THREE MONTHS
PAST A NEAR-DEATH EXPERIENCE.

WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU
LISTENING TO MY ADVICE FOR?

I'M RECOMMENDING
THAT I BE REPLACED

AS HER CASE OFFICER.

OKAY, NOW YOU'RE
JUST BEING STUPID.

I'M SORRY,
BUT THAT'S --

I NEARLY BLEW OUR ENTIRE
OPERATION INSIDE SD-6,

NOT TO MENTION PUTTING
SYDNEY'S LIFE IN DANGER.

HEY, SHE WANTED
TO GO TO DINNER, TOO.

SHE'S A BIG GIRL.
SHE KNEW THE RISKS.

MY POINT IS THAT MY JUDGMENT
WAS COMPROMISED.

NOT TO MENTION
THE FACT THAT --

ALL THE DAMAGE THAT YOU
AND SYDNEY HAVE DONE TO SD-6.

HAVE YOU GIVEN
ANY THOUGHT TO THE FACT

THAT MAYBE ALL THAT WORK
WAS DONE

BECAUSE OF THE WAY YOU GUYS
FEEL ABOUT EACH OTHER?

HOW'S THAT FOR SPIN?

IT'S NOT BAD.

WELL, WHATEVER
YOU DECIDE TO DO,

JUST MAKE SURE YOU DISCUSS THIS
WITH SYDNEY FIRST, OKAY?

I MEAN,
THIS AFFECTS HER, TOO.

ANYTHING?

WHENEVER BRIAULT
WENT TO PERU,

HE STAYED
AT HOTEL CEROCONTIDAD.

WE'RE SCANNING EVERYONE
WHO PASSES THROUGH THE LOBBY.

IF HE MET
WITH ANY ASSETS,

THEY'LL SHOW UP
ON THE FEDERAL DATABASE.

THIS IS BRIAULT?

THAT'S HIM LAST FEBRUARY.

THAT'S HIM 2001, NOVEMBER.

2001, SEPTEMBER.

STOP. WHO'S THAT WITH HIM?

CAN WE ENHANCE THIS?

THE SHADOWS
ARE PRETTY SEVERE.

I CAN BOOST THE GAMMA.
ARE THEY TOGETHER?

LET ME TRY SOMETHING HERE.

THIS WON'T BE PERFECT.

JACK, I JUST SAW
McCARTHY.

DID HE TELL YOU
ABOUT KANE?

YEAH, SHE AND BRIAULT
WERE HAVING AN AFFAIR.

I CAN'T STAND THAT I DIDN'T
PUT THAT TOGETHER MYSELF.

HE ALSO SAYS
YOU'RE GOING TO SD-6.

TO PROVE KANE
BLACKMAILED THE ALLIANCE.

AND YOU KNOW THIS HOW?

THE VERY DAY SLOANE HANDED OVER
$100 MILLION IN BEARER BONDS,

KANE OPENED AN ACCOUNT
IN MONACO.

THE CONTENTS OF THAT ACCOUNT
ARE PROTECTED BY PRIVACY LAWS,

BUT SD-6 UTILIZES
THEIR COVER AS CREDIT DAUPHINE

TO ACQUIRE ILLICIT ACCESS
TO THAT INFORMATION.

IF I CAN GET ON THEIR NETWORK,
I CAN VERIFY HER BALANCE.

BUT THIS IS
BASED ON YOUR ASSUMPTION

THAT KANE JUST PARKED
$100 MILLION IN THE BANK.

MY POINT IS
IF YOU'RE WRONG,

THEY'LL KILL YOU.

LET ME CONTACT
THE DIRECTOR.

THE CIA CAN VERIFY
WHAT'S IN THE ACCOUNT.

HE'D HAVE TO GET
GENERAL COUNSEL TO SIGN OFF.

THAT'S MINIMUM 48 HOURS.

I MAY BE SAFE HERE,

BUT IF THEY HAVEN'T ALREADY,

THEY'LL SOON BEGIN
TO SUSPECT SYDNEY.

BUT I APPRECIATE
THE OFFER.

JACK BRISTOW'S HERE.
HE'S IN THE BUILDING.

SECURITY LOCK SHOWS
HE CAME IN TWO MINUTES AGO.

SEAL THE EXITS. NO ONE LEAVES
UNTIL WE FIND HIM.

WHO MONITORS CLOSED-CIRCUIT?

[ TYPING ]

JACK.

CAN I HELP YOU?

YES. COME WITH US, PLEASE.

HELLO, JACK.

THERE'S A PLANE WAITING
TO TAKE US TO LONDON,

BUT I THOUGHT
WE SHOULD WAIT

FOR YOUR DAUGHTER TO RETURN
BEFORE WE LEFT.

I CAME HERE TO INVESTIGATE
A BLACKMAIL, BUT...

YOU'VE PROVEN FAR MORE
COMPELLING THAN A SIMPLE THIEF.

I KNOW WHAT YOU DID.

DO YOU?

I'M EAGER TO HEAR
WHAT THAT MAY BE.

SODIUM PENTOTHAL.

WON'T TAKE
MORE THAN A FEW MINUTES.

THEN WE'LL TALK
ABOUT SYDNEY.

Jack: FIVE MINUTES LONGER,

AND I WOULD HAVE
TOLD EVERYTHING.

SYDNEY AND I WOULD HAVE BEEN
REVEALED AS DOUBLE AGENTS

AND KILLED.

FORTUNATELY,
SLOANE SAW THE E-MAIL

THAT I SENT HIM
FROM THE SERVER ROOM

DETAILING
WHAT I DISCOVERED.

ARIANA KANE HAD, IN FACT,
DEPOSITED THE BEARER BONDS

INTO THAT MONACO ACCOUNT,

BUT ONLY LONG ENOUGH
TO CONVERT THEM INTO CASH,

WHICH SHE THEN
TRANSFERRED OUT.

Irina: AND HAVE THEY
RECOVERED THE CASH?

NOT YET.

AND ARVIN NEVER QUESTIONED
WHY YOU RAN?

NO. HE REALIZES
KANE WAS ON A WITCH HUNT,

THAT RUNNING
WAS A VALID OPTION.

IN FACT,
HE'S TAKING A WEEK OFF

AND LEAVING ME IN CHARGE
WHILE HE'S GONE.

THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING.

THERE IS ONE THING
THAT STRIKES ME AS ODD.

YES. ME TOO.

YOU SAID SLOANE
REQUESTED KANE TO INVESTIGATE.

THE ONE PERSON

WHO HAD AN APPARENT MOTIVE
FOR BLACKMAIL.

SOMEONE EASY TO FRAME.

INTERESTING THEORY.

OR NOT.

HEY.

HEY. WHAT DID KENDALL SAY?

HE TOLD ME
ABOUT YOUR FATHER.

HE DIDN'T MENTION ANYTHING
ABOUT OUR DATE,

IF THAT'S WHAT YOU MEAN.

HAVE YOU WRITTEN
YOUR MISSION DEBRIEF?

NO, NOT YET.

IF I TELL THE TRUTH,
AT THE LEAST,

THEY'LL REMOVE ME
AS YOUR CASE OFFICER.

DESPITE WHAT WE DID,
HOW STUPID WE WERE,

I KNOW WE DO GOOD WORK.

WE NEED TO STAY TOGETHER.

I AGREE.

WE DO GOOD WORK.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

WHEN I GOT BACK TO SD-6
AND SAW MY FATHER,

IT WAS CLEAR NO ONE
WOULD BE ASKING QUESTIONS

ABOUT KANE'S MISSING AGENTS,

SO I GAVE SLOANE
THE COUNTERFEIT GYROSCOPE.

THIS IS THE REAL ONE.

WE WIN.

AT THE AIRPORT,
YOU TOOK THEM BOTH.

ALWAYS BE PREPARED.

SO I HAD A BLOOD TEST TODAY,
FOR THE HEALTH INSURANCE,

AND THERE WAS
THIS GUY THERE GIVING BLOOD.

HE'S KIND OF CUTE,

SO I LOOK OVER,
AND I SMILE AT HIM,

AND GUESS WHAT HAPPENS.

HE FAINTED.

YOU JUST GUESSED
THAT HE...

IT'S A BLOOD SUGAR THING.

OKAY, WELL, FINE.

BEFORE I REALIZED THAT,
I WAS PRETTY PSYCHED.

I WAS THINKING,
"WOW, MY SMILE

MADE A MAN
GO WEAK IN THE KNEES."

HEY, OOH, HOW WAS, UH...

ANY NEWS ABOUT THAT GUY
MICHAEL FROM WORK?

NO.

THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE.

I REALIZED IT'S NOT WORTH
FANTASIZING ABOUT.

NOTHING'S EVER GOING
TO COME OF IT.

RIGHT.

OKAY.

GET YOUR COAT.
WE'RE GOING FOR COCKTAILS.

OH, NO, FRANCIE.

I'M SERIOUS. YOU NEED
THE BIGGEST COSMOPOLITAN.

I CAN'T EVEN TELL YOU.
COME ON. UP, UP, UP, GIRL.

WE'RE GONNA PAINT THIS TOWN.
LET'S DO IT.

SHAKE THIS OFF.

DAMN, I'M GOOD.

IT'S WORKING?

WHAT DID I TELL YOU?

YOU ASKED ME
IF THIS WAS POSSIBLE.

I SAID
GIVE ME THREE MONTHS.

LOOK AT THAT.

89 DAYS LATER.

THEY CAN'T HEAR US.

NOPE. THE HARD PART
WAS CRACKING

THE SPREAD SPECTRUM
ALGORITHM.

THE TRANSMISSION IN HERE

HAS TO MATCH
THEIR RECEIVERS EXACTLY.

YOU SEE THAT?

THAT'S THE SWITCH.

WHAT ARE
MY ASSOCIATES HEARING?

I PROGRAMMED IN
A VARIETY OF AMBIENT SOUNDS --

RAIN, TV CHATTER.

RIGHT NOW,
YOU'RE CRUISING DOWN THE 405,

LISTENING TO MILES DAVIS.

AND THE BIORHYTHMS?

PIECE OF CAKE. EKG READINGS,
BREATHING PATTERNS --

AS FAR AS THEY KNOW,

YOU'RE AS STEADY
AS CHARLIE WATTS.

$10 MIL.

HOLY GOD.

MUST FEEL GOOD.

WHAT'S THAT?

BEING ABLE TO SPEAK FREELY,
NOBODY KNOWING YOUR BUSINESS.

YEAH.

IT DOES.

[ OPERA PLAYING ]

WE DID IT.

ARE YOU SURE?

ARE YOU SURE IT WORKED?

YES, MY LOVE.

WE'RE FREE.
