Alias (2001–2006): Season 4, Episode 16 - Another Mister Sloane - full transcript

[ METAL DETECTOR BEEPS ]

Woman: I KNOW. I KNOW.
I KNOW.

I'M SIMPLY EXHAUSTED.

THE ENGINEERS' MEETING WENT OVER
BY ABOUT 2 1/2 HOURS,

AND OF COURSE
I MISSED MY FLIGHT,

BUT LUCKILY I WAS ABLE
TO REBOOK THE SAME DAY.

OH, YOU KNOW WHAT?
FRANCIS CALLED,

AND, UM, THEY WANT
TO PUBLISH MY PAPER.

I KNOW. I KNOW.

WELL, YOU KNOW, WE'LL CELEBRATE
WHEN I GET HOME.

YOU KNOW WHAT?
I'VE GOT TO GO, SWEETHEART.



TELL THE GIRLS I HAVE
A LITTLE SOMETHING FOR THEM.

GIVE THEM A KISS.
ALL RIGHT, LOVE YOU, TOO. BYE.

[ HANGS UP ]

[ METAL DETECTOR BEEPING ]

EXCUSE ME.

PLACE YOUR LUGGAGE
AND SHOES

ON THE TABLE, PLEASE.

OH. ME?

[ UNZIPPING BAG ]

AND YOUR SHOES.

OH.

OH, IT'S JUST
FOR MY DAUGHTER.

[ ZIPPING BAG ]

I WILL NEED YOU
TO FOLLOW ME, PLEASE.



I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
IT'S JUST A BEAR.

THIS WAY.

HANG ON. CAN I HAVE
MY SHOES BACK, PLEASE?

EXCUSE ME?

WHAT IS GOING ON?

AM I NOT ALLOWED
TO HAVE A TOY?

YOU KNOW, I'D LIKE SOME
ANSWERS OUT OF THE TWO OF YOU.

I'M AN AMERICAN CITIZEN.
DON'T WORRY, DR. SINCLAIR.

HANG ON A SECOND. THE OTHER GUY
LOOKED AT MY PASSPORT.

YOU DIDN'T.
HOW DID YOU KNOW MY NAME?

YOUR LUGGAGE TAG.

UGH.

OH, THIS IS GREAT.
THIS IS JUST GREAT.

OH! [ Gasping ]

Sydney:
THANKS FOR COMING.

ON THE PHONE
YOU SOUNDED DESPERATE.

FOR THE PAST MONTH, I'VE BEEN
INVESTIGATING LEADS WHICH --

SUGGEST THAT YOUR FATHER
IS STILL ALIVE.

SO? WHAT DID YOU DISCOVER?

WHAT I LEARNED IS THAT
IT WAS A HOAX.

MY FATHER WAS KILLED
BY IRINA DEREVKO IN 1979.

BUT SOMEONE WAS TRYING
TO MAKE ME BELIEVE OTHERWISE.

ANY IDEA WHO MAY HAVE
PERPETRATED

THIS ELABORATE CONSPIRACY?

ARVIN SLOANE.

ONE OF HIS COLLEAGUES
CONFESSED.

WHAT POSSIBLE MOTIVE
WOULD HE HAVE --

TO FORCE ME INTO STEALING
SOMETHING THEY WANTED.

I MEAN, COME ON, JACK,
DO I REALLY HAVE

TO EXPLAIN TO YOU
WHAT THIS IS ABOUT?

SLOANE HASN'T REFORMED.

AND HE'S STILL AFTER
THE SAME THINGS.

THERE'S MORE, DAD.

VAUGHN WASN'T THE ONLY PERSON
DECEIVED BY SLOANE.

THE CONTRACT, THE HIT
THAT WAS PUT ON MY LIFE --

I'VE SEEN THE BANK RECORDS.

THE PAYMENTS
PAID TO THE ASSASSIN.

IT WASN'T MOM.

IT WAS SLOANE.

HE WAS BEHIND IT.

HE WANTED YOU TO KILL HER.

I'M SORRY, DAD.

WE SHOULD NOTIFY
THE AGENCY. CHASE --

NO.

I'LL HANDLE EVERYTHING.

[ GASPING ]

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

JUST TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT.

WELCOME,
PROFESSOR SINCLAIR.

WHAT'S THIS ABOUT,
JACK? [ Gasps ]

YOU CAN'T IMAGINE
WHAT IT FELT LIKE

LOOKING INTO THE FACE
OF THE WOMAN

I ONCE SHARED A LIFE WITH,

AND WITH A SINGLE BULLET

ENDING THAT LIFE.

I RAN THROUGH
EVERY SCENARIO. WHY?

WHAT WAS THE PURPOSE
IN HAVING ME BELIEVE

THE ONLY WAY TO SAVE
MY DAUGHTER'S LIFE

WAS TO KILL HER MOTHER?

AND THEN
IT OCCURRED TO ME

WHY YOU WOULD GO
TO SUCH LENGTHS.

IT WAS FOR SYDNEY.

YOU IMAGINED
YOU'D DRIVE A WEDGE

BETWEEN ME
AND MY DAUGHTER.

I DIDN'T.

I HAD NOTHING TO DO
WITH IRINA'S DEATH.

ONE GOOD REASON

WHY I SHOULDN'T DO TO YOU

WHAT I DID TO MY WIFE.

JACK,

THIS DOESN'T MAKE SENSE.

THINK ABOUT IT.

EVEN IF I DID SUCCEED
IN UNDERMINING

YOUR RELATIONSHIP
WITH SYDNEY --

WHICH, GIVEN OUR AGREEMENT,

RUNS COUNTER
TO MY SELF-INTEREST --

EVEN THEN,

WITH ALL THE PEOPLE
IN SYDNEY'S LIFE --

VAUGHN, NADIA, ANYONE --

DO YOU REALLY BELIEVE
THAT SHE WOULD TURN TO ME?

JACK, I DIDN'T DO THIS.

SOMEONE IS SETTING ME UP.

Sinclair:
WHO ARE YOU?

YOUR QUESTIONS WILL ALL
BE ANSWERED IN TIME.

IT'S...

WHAT I HAVE,

WHAT WE CAN DO TOGETHER,
THAT MATTERS.

YEARS AGO,

I WAS WITH THE ARMY
CORPS OF ENGINEERS.

THEY WANTED ME TO STUDY
A CERTAIN MANUSCRIPT.

THESE PAGES WERE DRAWN

OVER 500 YEARS AGO

BY A MAN OF GENIUS

WHO ANTICIPATED
SCIENTIFIC PRINCIPLES

CENTURIES
AHEAD OF HIS TIME.

YOU'RE INSANE.

NOT AT ALL.

PROTOTYPES OF HIS DESIGNS

HAVE ALREADY BEEN BUILT.

TURNED UP
ALL OVER THE WORLD.

I'VE BEEN COLLECTING THEM

FOR THE PAST 35 YEARS.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
WHAT DO I HAVE --

I'VE BEEN FOLLOWING
YOUR CAREER, DR. SINCLAIR,

SINCE STANFORD.

I NEED YOUR EXPERTISE.

YOU WANT ME TO BUILD
A 500-YEAR-OLD MACHINE?

OKAY.

LISTEN TO ME.

I KNOW THAT, UM...

WE ALL HAVE BELIEFS,

AND THINGS THAT WE REALLY
WANT AND WISH

TO BE TRUE AND REAL.

BUT THESE SPECS --

THEY'RE JUST THEORETICAL.

THEY HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO BASIS
IN PHYSICAL REALITY.

ONCE YOU SEE...

ONCE YOU BELIEVE...

IT'LL CHANGE EVERYTHING
FOR YOU.

AND WHAT IF
I DON'T COOPERATE?

[ DOOR OPENS ]

[ WHEELS RATTLING ]

YOU WILL.

[ DOOR CLOSES ]

Sydney: YOU BELIEVE SLOANE?

UNTIL PROVEN OTHERWISE, YES.
UNTIL PROVEN OTHERWISE?

DIDN'T YOU HEAR WHAT I SAID?

WHAT THE HELL
DID SLOANE SAY TO YOU?

ACTUALLY, AGENT VAUGHN,
IN THIS COUNTRY

THE BURDEN OF PROOF IS ON
ESTABLISHING GUILT,

NOT INNOCENCE.

ROBERTS --
HE'S IN CUSTODY.

HE SAID THAT SLOANE
WAS BEHIND THE ATTACKS,

THAT HE WORKED FOR SLOANE.

YOU WANT TO PUT THEM TOGETHER?
ASSUME HE MAKES
A POSITIVE I.D.

YOU PUT HIM FACE TO FACE
WITH SLOANE.

WATCH HIM TRY TO DENY THAT.
YOU'LL HAVE YOUR PROOF.

Vaughn: ROBERTS,
THE MAN YOU'RE ABOUT TO SEE

IS YOUR FORMER EMPLOYER,
ARVIN SLOANE.

ALL WE NEED YOU TO DO
IS MAKE A POSITIVE I.D.

WELL?

HUH.

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

I MEAN, THAT DUDE IS HIM --
SORT OF.

Jack: IS IT HIM OR NOT?

I MEAN, YEAH, IT'S HIM,
BUT THEN IT'S NOT.

KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

SO IT'S NOT HIM, BUT --

BUT ALMOST HIM.

THIS IS WILD.

LIKE, THEY DON'T EVEN
LOOK THAT MUCH ALIKE,

BUT...

OH, THIS IS FREAKY, MAN.

YOU ASK ME,

BOTH OF THEM
GIVE ME THE CREEPS.

NOW THAT I'VE BEEN
EXONERATED BY YOUR INFORMANT,

I SUGGEST YOU FIND OUT
WHAT IT IS HE REALLY DOES KNOW.

I'LL BE IN MY OFFICE.

I BELIEVE IT'S STILL MINE,
YES?

JUST BECAUSE ROBERTS DIDN'T
MAKE A POSITIVE I.D.

DOESN'T MEAN SLOANE'S
NOT INVOLVED.

IS THERE A PROBLEM?

YES, ACTUALLY, THERE IS.

YOU'RE MISSING
A VITAL COMPONENT.

AM I?

A TRANSFORMER COIL.

WHICH ACTS AS
A CONTAINMENT STABILIZER.

YES, THAT'S RIGHT.

YES, WE WERE HOPING TO HAVE
OBTAINED THE COIL BY NOW.

WELL, THEN YOU KNOW

THAT WITHOUT IT,
A DEVICE OF THIS SIZE

IS INCAPABLE OF WITHSTANDING
ITS OWN POWER OUTPUT.

HMM.

[ INHALES ]

MAGGIE,

I HIRED YOU BECAUSE
COUNTLESS TIMES

YOU'VE PROVEN YOURSELF

CAPABLE OF IMPROVISING
SOLUTIONS

WHERE OTHERS HAVE FAILED.

WELL, I THANK YOU
FOR YOUR VOTE OF CONFIDENCE,

BUT EVEN I HAVE MY LIMITS.

I SEE.

MOTIVATE HER.

I WANT TO BELIEVE YOU,

BUT IT DOESN'T MAKE
ANY SENSE --

WHY SOMEONE WOULD
SET YOU UP,

PURSUE THE SAME
SPECIFIC THINGS

YOU'VE PURSUED IN THE PAST.

SO YOU THINK THAT I'VE RESUMED
MY SEARCH FOR RAMBALDI.

HAVE YOU?

NADIA,
I MADE YOU A PROMISE.

I GAVE UP MY PAST OBSESSIONS
FOR YOU.

LOOK, I KNOW I'VE
GIVEN YOU REASONS

TO DOUBT ME.

I KNOW I'VE ACTED
CRAZY IN THE PAST,

BUT WHAT HAPPENED IN SIENA,

SWEETHEART...

THAT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN.

I PROMISE.

WHAT HE'S ASKING

MIGHT NOT EVEN BE
POSSIBLE

EVEN WITH THE COMPONENT.

PLEASE LISTEN TO ME.
I'M BEGGING YOU.

[ WHIRRING ]

[ SCREAMING ]

AAH!

AS YOU ARE AWARE,
EVIDENCE INDICATES

THAT SOMEONE HAS BEEN
ACTIVELY PERPETRATING CRIME

IN MY NAME.

OBJECTIVE IS SIMPLE --
FIND THE MAN. APPREHEND HIM.

ASSUMING HE EXISTS
AT ALL.

THAT'S THE ASSUMPTION
WE'RE WORKING WITH.

OUR BEST LEAD SO FAR IS ROBERTS.
WHERE ARE WE WITH HIM?

ROBERTS HAS BEEN
INTERROGATED.

HIS KNOWLEDGE
OF THE ORGANIZATION

HE WAS WORKING FOR
IS EXTREMELY LIMITED.

BUT WE CAN STILL USE HIM.
HE KNOWS THEIR CONTACT PROTOCOL.

WE GIVE ROBERTS THE COIL
AND PUT HIM INTO PLAY.

HE MAKES AN EXCHANGE.

WE TRACK THE COIL
BACK TO ARVIN CLONE.

[ CLEARS THROAT ]

SORRY, THAT'S WHAT
WE'VE BEEN CALLING HIM.

YEAH, ALSO, UH,
MARVIN SLOANE.

ROLLING SLOANES.

BUT OBVIOUSLY
EQUALLY DISRESPECTFUL.

HAS ROBERTS AGREED
TO COOPERATE?

I'M SURE WE CAN PERSUADE HIM
TO SEE THINGS OUR WAY.

UM, EXCUSE ME, SORRY,
BUT WE ALL KNOW THAT THE COIL

IS A KEY COMPONENT
IN THE RAMBALDI DESIGN.

RAMBALDI.

WHICH MEANS THAT,
PER YOUR PARDON AGREEMENT,

MR. SLOANE, YOU MUST
RECUSE YOURSELF

OF ALL MATTERS RAMBALDI.

YOU HAVE TO LEAVE
THIS ROOM.

MARSHALL, THIS MISSION IS
ABOUT PROVING MY INNOCENCE.

SYDNEY, MARCUS,
TALK TO ROBERTS.

HELP HIM TO SEE THAT
IT'S IN HIS BEST INTEREST

TO WORK WITH US
RIGHT AWAY.

YOU EXCEPT ME
TO DOUBLE-CROSS SLOANE?

HE'S NOT SLOANE.

WHOEVER HE IS.

YOU DANGLE BAIT IN FRONT
OF A MAN LIKE THAT,

YOU LOSE A HAND.

I'M SORRY, BUT, UH,

NO CAN DO.

LET'S BE CLEAR.

YOU PLAY BALL WITH US,

OR ENJOY THE REST
OF YOUR LIFE IN PRISON.

I'LL BE SAFER IN PRISON.
TRUST.

WE GUARANTEE IMMUNITY
FROM PROSECUTION.

NATIONAL SECURITY CRIMES,
EUROPOL RECORDS,

PARKING TICKETS -- YOU
NAME IT, IT ALL DISAPPEARS.

AND WE RELOCATE YOU
TO SOMEPLACE SAFE.

SOMEPLACE SAFE?

WHAT, LIKE MARS?

YOU'LL HAVE
FULL CIA PROTECTION.

YOU HAVE OUR WORD.

LOOK, I MET THE MAN
TWICE.

I DEAL WITH HIS NUMBER TWO.

CAT NAMED CARTER.

YOU THINK ABOUT RUNNING
A TRACE, THEY'LL KNOW.

THE LINE'S CLEAN.

[ BELT WHIRRING ]

PLEASE, NO! NO, PLEASE, NO!

[ PHONE RINGING ]
AAH! AAH! AAH! AAH!

[ RINGING, BELT WHIRRING ]

[ SINCLAIR SCREAMING ]

I'M HANGING UP.
NO, NO, LET IT RING.

WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO,
LEAVE A MESSAGE?

WE WON'T GET A CHANCE
LIKE THIS AGAIN.

[ WHIRRING STOPS ]

[ PHONE RINGING,
SINCLAIR SCREAMING ]

[ RING ]

[ RING ]

[ RING ]

IT'S ROBERTS.

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?

WELL, HELLO TO YOU, TOO,
CARTER.

IT'S NOT NICE TO DISAPPEAR,
MR. ROBERTS.

YEAH, WELL, UM, THINGS
GOT A LITTLE HOT,

SO I HAD TO LAY LOW
FOR A WHOLE.

LIE LOW.

A THING LAYS,

AS IN YOU LAY A BOOK DOWN.

A PERSON LIES.

OH, OKAY.

WELL, UH, LISTEN.
WHY DON'T WE GET TOGETHER?

YOU CAN GIVE ME SOME
GRAMMAR LESSONS,

AND I CAN GIVE YOU THAT COIL
YOU'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR.

YOU HAVE THE COIL?

I'M LOOKING RIGHT AT IT.

BUT CONSIDERING
THE CONSIDERABLE RISK

I'VE TAKEN TO PROCURE IT,

THE PRICE JUST WENT UP.

NAME IT.

750.

PLUS A NEUTRAL PLACE
TO MEET.

PLUS,
NO MORE GRAMMAR LESSONS.

A NEUTRAL LOCATION?

YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT.

OR I DISAPPEAR AGAIN,

AND I TAKE
YOUR SLINKY WITH ME.

YOU CALL BACK
IN A HALF HOUR.

I'LL HAVE A LOCATION.

[ SINCLAIR PANTING ]

MIGHT NOT SEEM IT,

BUT THIS COULD BE
THE LUCKIEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE.

[ SOBBING ]

YOU PEOPLE BETTER
HAVE MY BACK.

THE MEET IS ON.

WHERE?

TOMORROW.
AROUND THE CORNER. 1500.

47...

45...

HE'S INNOCENT.

MAYBE.

I KNOW IT, SYDNEY.

I HOPE YOU'RE RIGHT.

DO YOU?

Marshall: OKAY, ONE MORE
PATCH, LADIES,

AND I AM TIED INTO
THE HOTEL SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM.

[ BEEP ]

PERFECTO.

QUé BUENO, NADIA Y SYDNEY.

ALL SYSTEMS UP AND RUNNING.
READY TO ROCK.

MOVING INTO POSITION.

COPY, DIXON.
WE HAVE YOU ON SCREEN.

OH, THIS PLACE IS KILLER.

WE HAVE TO GET MARRIED
HERE.

YOU HAVEN'T EVEN
PROPOSED YET.

THEY DON'T KNOW THAT.

WE CAN TELL THEM THAT
WE'RE THINKING ABOUT IT

AND GET A FREE MEAL
OFF THE SAMPLER MENU.

EXCUSE ME, SIR, DO YOU
HAVE THE TIME, PLEASE?

TIME FOR ME TO GET
THE HELL OUT OF HERE.

JUST LOOK AT YOUR WATCH
AND TELL ME WHAT TIME IT IS.

2:55.

WHEN CARTER ARRIVES,
WE'LL MOVE IN AND ARREST HIM.

YOU HAVE NOTHING
TO WORRY ABOUT.

CLEARLY, YOU DON'T
KNOW THE MAN.

YO. RUM CANNONBALL.

A LITTLE EARLY
FOR THE HARD STUFF,

DON'T YOU THINK?

NO, I DON'T.

IN FACT, MAKE IT TWO.

ONE FOR EACH HAND.

WE HAVE AN APPROACH.

DO I KNOW YOU?

I'M JUST HERE
TO MAKE THE SWEEP.

MAKE SURE YOU'RE NOT
CARRYING ANY WEAPONS.

Jack: SIT TIGHT, SYDNEY.
SEE WHERE THIS GOES.

OKAY. COME WITH ME.

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.
THE PLAN WAS TO MEET HERE.

THE PLAN'S CHANGED. WE'RE
DOING THIS IN THE PENTHOUSE.

SHOW ME.

Jack: ALL TEAMS, RE-DEPLOY
TO COVER THE PENTHOUSE.

MOVING TO THE FREIGHT
ELEVATOR.

Jack: SYDNEY, WE NEED
AUDIO ON ROBERTS.

COPY.

YOU GOT STONES, MAN.

DOUBLE-CROSSING CARTER
LIKE THAT?

SIR?

SIR, YOU LEFT THIS
AT THE BAR.

THANKS.

OH!

SO, DID CARTER COME HIMSELF,

OR DID HE SEND SOMEBODY?

OH, NO, NO, NO.
HE WANTS TO DO THIS

FACE TO FACE.

[ ELEVATOR DINGS ]

FOLLOWING THEM UP.

Sydney: SOMETHING'S WRONG.
HE'S HERE. THE CLONE.

THEY'RE GONNA CUT
THE CABLE.

[ CABLE SNAPS ]

[ SCREAMING ]

Sydney: ON MY WAY
TO THE SUBBASEMENT NOW.

[ ELECTRICITY CRACKLING ]

ROBERTS IS DEAD.

[ SIGHS ]

AND THE COIL IS GONE.

I NEED TO SPEAK WITH YOU.

I SAW HIM
AT THE HOTEL.

IT WAS ONLY FOR A MOMENT,

BUT I KNOW NOW WHAT
ROBERTS WAS TALKING ABOUT.

THE MAN, THE IMPOSTOR --

EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM
SLOANE.

HIS CLOTHES, HIS POSTURE,
THEY WAY HE LOOKED AT ME --

IT'S THE WAY
YOU LOOK AT ME.

AND HOW IS THAT, SYDNEY?

LET'S JUST SAY
IT'S EQUALLY DISTURBING.

YEAH.

WELL, QUITE FRANKLY,
I'M SURPRISED

THAT YOU DIDN'T GET TO IT
BEFORE.

WHAT'S THAT?

YOU READ THE REPORT.

THE OPERATION,
THE ELEVATOR CABLES.

MOSCOW.
FOUR YEARS AGO.

YEAH.

I TASKED JULIAN SARK
TO A SIMILAR STRATEGY

IN ORDER TO RELIEVE
A MR. KARPACHEV

OF A CERTAIN ITEM
I REQUIRED.

WHY WOULD SOMEONE BE
IMPERSONATING YOU?

IT APPEARS TO BE
MORE THAN THAT.

THIS MAN --
HIS STRATEGY, HIS APPEARANCE,

HIS AFFINITY FOR ALL THINGS
RAMBALDI.

YOU THINK HE ACTUALLY
BELIEVES HE'S YOU?

OH...

PERHAPS MARSHALL WAS RIGHT.

PERHAPS I SHOULD
RECUSE MYSELF

FROM ANY FURTHER
INVOLVEMENT.

NO, YOU HAVE TO STAY IN IT.

IN FACT, YOU MAY NEED
TO GO DEEPER.

THE COILS, THE MANUSCRIPT,

YOUR SENSE OF STRATEGY.

IF YOU'RE RIGHT ABOUT THIS,
HE HAS ACCESS TO EVERYTHING --

CIA FILES,
YOUR PSYCH REPORTS,

MISSION ANALYSIS.

YOU MAY BE THE ONLY ONE
WHO CAN DO IT --

ANTICIPATE HIS NEXT MOVE.

YOU'RE ASKING ME

TO GO BACK TO RAMBALDI?

GOD HELP US.

YES.

[ BEEPING ]

Woman's voice:
IDENTITY CONFIRMED.

I WAS WRONG
ABOUT YOUR FATHER.

I'M SORRY.

I KNOW IT'S BEEN HARD
TO WORK WITH SLOANE,

TO TRUST HIM.

THAT'S NO EXCUSE.

NO. YOU'RE DOING YOUR JOB.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO APOLOGIZE.

THANKS FOR SAYING THAT,
BUT ASKING HIM

TO GO BACK TO THE THING
THAT WAS THE CAUSE

OF SO MANY PROBLEMS...

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

CHASE AUTHORIZED MY REQUEST

TO RESEARCH RAMBALDI --
ARE YOU SERIOUS?

HE'S IN THERE WITH DIXON
RIGHT NOW.
SYDNEY...

WHAT IS IT? I THOUGHT --

YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT I SAW.

LAST YEAR WHEN MY FATHER
AND I WENT BACK TO SIENA,

THE CLOSER WE GOT TO FINDING
THIS ARTIFACT THAT HE WANTED,

THE MORE HE BEGAN TO CHANGE.

I SAW HIM SLIPPING AWAY
FROM HIMSELF.

HIS PASSION,
THIS DESPERATION

TO CONNECT WITH RAMBALDI,
IT COMPLETELY OVERTOOK HIM.

HE BECAME A DIFFERENT MAN.

HIS EYES WERE MAD, LOST.

I DIDN'T WANT
TO BE AROUND HIM AFTER THAT.

THE ONLY REASON I AGREED
TO COME BACK, TO JOIN A.P.O.,

IT WAS BECAUSE HE PROMISED ME
THAT PART OF HIS LIFE WAS OVER.

I KNOW WHAT HE'S DOING.

I KNOW WHAT HE'S DOING.

THE MAN WE'RE LOOKING FOR
IS ATTEMPTING TO CONSTRUCT

AN ENERGY SOURCE --

IN ESSENCE,
A MASSIVE BATTERY

IS THE SIMPLEST WAY
TO DESCRIBE IT.

WHERE'S THE POWER?
WE DON'T KNOW.

SO THAT'S WHY HE NEEDED
THE TRANSFORMER COIL.

THAT'S RIGHT,
BUT IN ORDER TO USE IT,

IT'S NECESSARY TO HAVE
AN ENGINEER

WITH A SPECIALTY
IN NUCLEAR PHYSICS.

AN ADVANCED KNOWLEDGE
OF QUANTUM ELECTRODYNAMICS.

THERE ARE ONLY A HANDFUL
OF SCIENTISTS IN THE WORLD.

YOU THINK ONE OF THEM IS
WORKING WITH OUR TARGET?

YES, BUT NOT BY CHOICE.

DR. MARGARET SINCLAIR
DISAPPEARED LAST WEEK

IN KRAKOW. WE CAN PRESUME
THIS IS NO COINCIDENCE.

COULD THIS BATTERY
ALREADY BE COMPLETED?

IT'S UNLIKELY.

THERE ARE OTHER
IMPORTANT COMPONENTS,

INCLUDING XANTHIUM 242.

HOW DO WE KNOW
THEY DON'T ALREADY HAVE IT?

I CONTACTED A FORMER
COLLEAGUE OF MINE IN SICILY.

SOMEONE WHO TRADES
IN ILLICIT CHEMICALS.

APPARENTLY YESTERDAY MORNING

ARVIN SLOANE
PLACED AN ORDER

FOR AN UNPRECEDENTED
AMOUNT OF XANTHIUM.

I KINDLY TOLD HIM
TO HOLD THE ORDER.

THAT I WOULD BE PICKING IT UP
PERSONALLY.

SOMEONE ELSE CAN DO THIS.
NO, IT'S MY CONTACT.

THEN YOU SHOULD HAVE BACKUP.
I'LL COME WITH YOU.

NADIA, IT'S A MEETING.
I DON'T NEED BACKUP.

LOOK, SWEETHEART,

I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE
CONCERNED ABOUT.

RAMBALDI.

YOU HAVE NOTHING TO
WORRY ABOUT. I'LL BE FINE.

I THINK YOU'RE ASKING
TOO MUCH OF YOURSELF.

LOOK, I'VE PROVEN MYSELF
TO YOU, TO EVERYONE.

I DON'T HAVE TO --

THE DSR WAS A CONTAINED
ENVIRONMENT.

YOU WERE BEING WATCHED.
THERE WERE LIMITATIONS.

THE ONLY LIMITATION
THAT WAS NECESSARY

WHEN I WAS AT THE DSR
IS YOU.

WHEN I WAS STUDYING
THOSE MANUSCRIPTS,

THE ONLY THING MY THOUGHTS
KEPT RETURNING TO WAS YOU.

I WAS SURROUNDED BY SYMBOLS
OF ALL THE THINGS

I ONCE BELIEVED IN,
AND IT ALL FELT MEANINGLESS.

HAVING A DAUGHTER,
KNOWING YOU

MEANS MORE TO ME
THAN ANYTHING EVER HAS

OR EVER WILL.

WHAT ABOUT SIENA?

I CAN'T CHANGE WHAT YOU
WITNESSED IN SIENA.

BUT I CAN ASSURE YOU THAT
THE MAN THAT YOU SAW THERE

NO LONGER EXISTS.

I'M SORRY, NADIA.

FOR WHAT?

HAVING ME AS A FATHER
IS AN ARDUOUS UNDERTAKING,

ONE THAT I IMPOSED ON YOU.

DON'T SAY THAT.

I DON'T WANT
TO LOSE YOU AGAIN.

THEN I NEED TO KNOW
THAT YOU HAVE FAITH IN ME.

CONSIDERING SHE DOESN'T
LIKE RUNNING ON A WET TRACK,

THAT MARE IS QUITE
THE LONGSHOT.

MR. SLOANE.
IT'S BEEN SO LONG --

IN PERSON, I MEAN.

WELL, I'VE HAD TO TAKE
SOME PRECAUTIONS AS OF LATE.

DO YOU HAVE THE PACKAGE?

YES. OF COURSE.

THERE IS A QUESTION
I'VE BEEN WANTING

TO ASK YOU
FOR THE LONGEST TIME.

NOW THAT YOU ARE HERE...

YES? WHAT IS IT?

THIS OMNIFAM ORGANIZATION
YOU FOUNDED,

FEEDING THE WORLD'S
POOR AND HUNGRY --

WHAT WAS THAT REALLY ABOUT?

WHAT WAS IN THAT FOOD

YOU SENT TO THOSE
IMPOVERISHED COUNTRIES?

IGNACIO.

I KNOW YOU WERE INVOLVED
WITH GENETIC EXPERIMENTATION.

IGNACIO, THE FACT IS

THAT SOMEONE
IN THE BLACK MARKET

IS POSING AS ME.

AND THAT SAME SOMEONE PLACED
ALL THE PREVIOUS ORDERS

OF XANTHIUM 242 WITH YOU.

MR. SLOANE, HE --

HE FOLLOWED
ALL OF YOUR PROTOCOLS.

I DIDN'T KNOW.
I SWEAR.

IGNACIO, I'M NOT HERE
TO HURT YOU.

BUT YOU NEED TO TELL ME
EXACTLY WHERE

THAT SHIPMENT WAS
SUPPOSED TO BE SENT.

MARSHALL, OUR TEAM'S
GOING TO SANTIAGO.

PULL UP SATELLITE
SURVEILLANCE.

572
COURT OF BARRERA MONTIN.

GOT IT. I'M ON IT.

WEISS, MAKE SURE THE JET
IS ON STANDBY.

COORDINATE AN IN-COUNTRY
RENDEZVOUS WITH SLOANE

AT 1200 HOURS.

1200? JACK, IT'S ME.
YOU CAN SAY NOON.

JUST DO IT!

SLOANE IS JOINING
THE TACTICAL TEAM?

CONSIDERING WHO WE'RE
UP AGAINST,

AND CONSIDERING OUR NEED
FOR RAMBALDI INFORMATION.

AND ARE YOU CONSIDERING
THE MAN HIMSELF?

IT'S ONE THING
TO ALLOW SLOANE

INTO THE DSR, BUT IF HIS
IMPOSTOR HAS ASSEMBLED

THE RAMBALDI DEVICE
AND SLOANE IS PUT

IN FRONT OF IT,
WHAT ASSURANCE DO WE HAVE --

I'M CALLING THE SHOTS HERE,
MARCUS.

AND YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH
MY QUESTIONING SLOANE'S MOTIVES?

AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED,
AT THIS JUNCTURE,

SLOANE'S MOTIVES
ARE IRRELEVANT.

IF HE CAN HELP BRING
THE IMPOSTOR TO US,

I SAY LET SLOANE DO
WHAT HE NEEDS TO DO.

GO TO SANTIAGO.

LET'S END THIS.

[ GUNSHOTS ]

[ FENCE BEEPING ]

[ DOOR OPENS ]

MR. SLOANE,
THE SHIPMENT'S HERE.

GOOD.

MEET THEM
AT THE LOADING DOCK.

SEE THAT IT'S
PROPERLY HANDLED.

I'LL GET DR. SINCLAIR.
WE'LL MEET YOU AT THE LAB.

[ GUNSHOTS ]

OUTRIGGER,
DO YOU HAVE VISUAL?

I COUNT SEVEN TANGOS
SO FAR.

STILL SEARCHING
FOR THE HOSTAGE.

THE XANTHIUM HAS ARRIVED.

YOU CAN BEGIN ASSEMBLY
IMMEDIATELY.

I COULD HAVE WORKED
MORE EFFICIENTLY

IF YOU HADN'T RUINED
MY HANDS.

I HAVE FAITH THAT YOU'LL
FIND ANOTHER WAY.

I'VE GOT A TWENTY
ON DR. SINCLAIR.

NORTHWEST SIDE, LEVEL 2.
HANGAR'S ON GROUND FLOOR,

EAST SIDE.
UNDERSTOOD.

ALL RIGHT, WE'LL SPLIT UP.
ONE TEAM RETRIEVE THE HOSTAGE,

THE OTHER SECURES THE LAB.
I GO WITH SLOANE.

I WAS GONNA SUGGEST THAT
MYSELF.

STRANGE, ISN'T IT?

WHAT'S THAT?

ALL OUR YEARS
WORKING TOGETHER,

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME
I'VE BEEN WITH YOU IN ACTION.

UP CLOSE.

[ SCANNER DECODING ]

ALPHA TEAM,
YOU'RE ALMOST ON TARGET.

TAKE THE NEXT LEFT.

[ SINCLAIR SHOUTING ]

WATCH YOUR FIRE.
THEY GOT SINCLAIR.

IT'S LOCKED.

STAY BACK, STAY BACK.

GIVE ME YOUR RADIO.

CARTER, CHANGE OF PLANS.

SECURE THE DEVICE
FROM THE HANGAR

AND MEET ME BY THE SIDE EXIT.

Sydney: WHAT IS THIS?

THIS IS TAKING TOO LONG.
IF THIS WERE YOUR FACILITY,

WHAT WOULD
THE ACCESS CODE BE?

J-A...

TRY "JACQUELYN."

J-A-C-Q-U-E-L-Y-N.

[ DOOR OPENS ]

AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW
WHO THAT IS?

I'LL SET THE CHARGES.

NO.

NO, WE DON'T HAVE TO.

WE CAN DISMANTLE IT.

NO. SLOANE.

SYDNEY, WE HAVE TO CONSIDER
THE VALUE OF THIS.

I DON'T CARE.

Vaughn: PHOENIX,
WE'RE CUT OFF.

THEY'VE GOT DR. SINCLAIR.
YOU'VE GOT TO INTERCEPT THEM.

WHERE?

NORTHWEST CORRIDOR,
HEADED YOUR WAY.

GO.

GO.

I'M ON IT.

[ DOOR BUZZES ]

MR. SLOANE.

I THOUGHT WE WERE
SUPPOSED TO RENDEZVOUS

ON THE SIDE ENTRANCE.

HELLO.

STAY WITH HER.

WHO'S THE MAN
MISREPRESENTING ME?

IT'S ARVIN SLOANE.

I'M ARVIN SLOANE.

[ SCREAMING ]

DAMN!

DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS IS
THAT YOU'RE DOING?

WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT?

DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT
YOU'RE DEALING WITH HERE,

AND FOR WHAT?

PLEASE, HE TOLD ME --
MR. SLOANE --

LISTEN TO ME.

DON'T MAKE ME TELL YOU
AGAIN WHO I AM.

YOU FOOL.

HE TOLD ME -- HE TOLD ME
THAT I COULD LIVE FOREVER.

NO!

IS THAT WHAT YOU THINK
THIS IS ALL ABOUT?

IMMORTALITY?

YOU BOUGHT THE RUMOR,

YOU SIMPLE-MINDED DILETTANTE!

AAH!
AAH!

A MYSTERY.

THE TRUE SECRETS
OF THESE CREATIONS

WILL ALWAYS BE HELD BACK
FROM YOU,

THE UNWORTHY!

NADIA.

IT'S ALL OVER.

IT'S ALL OVER, HONEY.
