Alias (2001–2006): Season 4, Episode 18 - Mirage - full transcript

[ TECHNO MUSIC PLAYING ]

WHAT'S TAKING SO LONG?

YOU'RE AN IMPATIENT BASTARD,
AREN'T YOU?

TIME IS MONEY.

THE HYDROSECT
WILL BE HERE SOON,

AT WHICH POINT WE'LL
MOVE ON TO THE NEXT STAGE.

WHICH IS?
DISPERSAL.

[ SPEAKS GERMAN ]

FOR NOW WE RELAX

AND ENJOY OURSELVES.

CHEERS.



OUTRIGGER'S ARMED.

HE'S IN V.I.P. WITH KRADIC
AND TWO OTHERS.

EXPECT DELIVERY OF HYDROSECT
ANY MINUTE.

GOOD WORK, PHOENIX.

ONCE DELIVERY IS CONFIRMED,
WE NEED TO TAKE EVERY PRECAUTION

TO ENSURE THE HYDROSECT
REMAINS STABLE.

HAVE WE CONFIRMED
THE METHOD OF TRANSPORT?

IT WAS JACK'S RESPONSIBILITY.

HE HASN'T CHECKED IN YET
THIS MORNING, HAS HE?

NO.

NOW, IT'LL MOST LIKELY
ARRIVE IN A LARGE

METAL BIOMETRIC CASE --

YOU KNOW, THE KIND
THAT ARE USUALLY NAMED

AFTER LARGE MULTINATIONAL
CORPORATIONS.



SHOTGUN, WHAT'S YOUR STATUS?

NO SIGN OF KRADIC'S
MEN YET.

[ CELL PHONE RINGS ]

[ RING ]

YEAH?

GOOD.

THE HYDROSECT'S HERE?

OUT FRONT.
Dixon: ABOUT TIME.

GOT A VISUAL
ON THE HYDROSECT.

[ DEVICE CHARGING ]

VAUGHN, TAKE COVER!

[ SCREAMING ]

PHOENIX, WHAT'S HAPPENING?

DROP THE GUN
OR LOSE YOUR ARM.

DON'T MOVE!

I'M ON HIM!

Sloane: PHOENIX,
WHAT'S HAPPENING?

THIRD PARTY TRIED TO
INTERCEPT THE HYDROSECT.

I'M IN PURSUIT.

[ DOOR CLOSES ]

[ PANTING ]

PUT THE GUNS DOWN!

OR THIS GOES INTO
THE DRINKING WATER!

I SAID PUT THEM DOWN!

SEND IN
THE BIOHAZARD TEAM.

WE NEED TO CONTAIN
THE HYDROSECT.

ON THEIR WAY.

Sophia: SO THE CIA
HAS THE HYDROSECT?

THEY GOT LUCKY.

IF I CAN FIND OUT WHERE THEY
TOOK IT, I CAN GET IT BACK.

LEAVE THAT TO ME.
COME TO LOS ANGELES.

CONTACT ME
WHEN YOU GET HERE.

EVERYTHING ALL RIGHT?

OH, YES.

JUST MAKING
A HOTEL RESERVATION.

SOPHIA, YOU JUST GOT HERE.

DIDN'T I USED TO SAY THAT
TO YOU?

STAY. I INSIST.
WE WANT YOU TO BE HERE.

PLEASE.

ALL RIGHT.

BUT YOU MUST TELL ME
THE MINUTE I BECOME A BURDEN.

I PROMISE.

HEY.

HEY.

HAVE YOU SEEN MY FATHER?

NOTHING YET, HUH?

I'M WORRIED. I LEFT HIM
LIKE A DOZEN MESSAGES.

HE WAS SUPPOSED TO REPORT IN
TWO DAYS AGO.

SO WHAT DO YOU WANT
TO DO ABOUT IT?

SO THIS IS WHERE
YOUR DAD LIVES, HUH?

YEAH, WHAT DID YOU EXPECT?

I DON'T KNOW,
A BUNKER OR SOMETHING.

SO YOU'VE REALLY
NEVER BEEN HERE?

NO.

THAT'S VERY STRANGE.

AS OPPOSED TO EVERYTHING ELSE

ABOUT MY RELATIONSHIP
WITH MY FATHER.

301. HERE IT IS.

DAD?

NOT MUCH FOR CLUTTER,
IS HE?

NO.

SYDNEY, COME HERE.
LOOK AT THIS.

BODY TEMPERATURE,
BLOOD PRESSURE,

BLOOD CELL COUNTS.

HE'S MONITORING HIS VITALS.

MARSHALL.

OH, HEY, DID YOU HEAR
THE NEWS?

I GET TO RUN AN INITIAL ANALYSIS
ON HYDROSECT THIS AFTERNOON.

I LOVE LEVEL 4
BIOHAZARD TOXINS.

MY FATHER ASKED ME
TO GIVE YOU THIS

ARTIST'S SKETCH BASED ON
DESCRIPTIONS

FROM SYDNEY AND VAUGHN.
HE WANTS TO KNOW IF YOU CAN --

RUN A BIOMETRIC MATCH.

YEAH, BUT OFF A SKETCH
IT'S A BIT TRICKY.

CAN YOU DO IT?

FLINKMAN DOESN'T KNOW
THE MEANING OF FAILURE.

ONE UGLY PUSS, HUH?
MUY FEO.

NOW THEY HAVE A PICTURE
OF YOU.

THEY HAVE A CARTOON
DRAWING.

THEY'LL NEVER GET A POSITIVE
I.D. OFF OF THAT.

YOU UNDERESTIMATED THEM
IN VIENNA,

AND WE LOST THE HYDROSECT.

LUCKY BREAK.

NADIA HAS A LAPTOP
WITH A.P.O. ACCESS.

SHE BRINGS IT HOME
EVERY NIGHT.

WE MAY BE ABLE TO USE IT
TO FIND THE HYDROSECT.

HOW LONG WOULD IT TAKE YOU
TO HACK INTO IT?

I'M AFRAID OUR OPTIONS
ARE LIMITED, JACK.

THE WHITE BLOOD CELLS ANOMALIES
ARE NOT WHAT WE'D HOPED FOR.

LIMITED, NOT EXHAUSTED.

SCIENCE IS FULL
OF HAPPY ACCIDENTS.

ALEXANDER FLEMING SPENT YEARS
TRYING TO FIGURE OUT

HOW TO TREAT
BACTERIAL INFECTION.

HE NEEDED A VACATION SO BAD,
HE FORGOT TO WASH

HIS PETRI DISHES
BEFORE LEAVING THE LAB.

SO HE COMES BACK A WEEK LATER,
WELL RESTED, TANNED,

AND WHAT'S HE FACED WITH?
A STACK OF MOLDY DISHES.

BUT HE LOOKS A LITTLE CLOSER,
AND SON OF A GUN.

NOT AN IOTA OF BACTERIA
GROWING ANYWHERE NEAR THE MOLD.

PENICILLIN.
JUST A HAPPY ACCIDENT.

FASCINATING ANECDOTE,
ALTHOUGH ITS RELEVANCE

TO MY CONDITION
ISN'T EXACTLY --

I HAVE SPENT MOST OF MY CAREER
RESEARCHING GENETIC MUTATIONS.

MOSTLY IN RATS.

I LIKE RATS.

MUCH SMARTER THAN THEY'RE
GIVEN CREDIT FOR.

THESE LITTLE BUGGERS
WERE EXPOSED

TO THE MOTHER LODE
OF RADIATION.

I WAS DISTRACTED ONE DAY --
PROBLEMS WITH THE WIFE --

AND I ACCIDENTALLY GAVE THEM
A LETHAL DOSE

OF AN ALKYLATING AGENT.

BUT LO AND BEHOLD,
A FEW OF MY RATS SURVIVED.

MILO LIVED TO THE RIPE
OLD AGE OF 4.

THAT'S SOMETHING.

YES, BUT 84% OF MY RATS
WERE DEAD WITHIN A WEEK.

AND GIVEN WHAT THEY WENT
THROUGH, DEATH WAS A BLESSING.

WE BOTH KNOW THE PROGNOSIS
FOR MY CONDITION.

I DON'T SEE THAT I HAVE
A CHOICE.

THIS ALKYLATING AGENT
WAS DISCONTINUED DECADES AGO.

IT WAS CONSIDERED
TOO LETHAL,

EVEN IN CONTROLLED
ENVIRONMENTS.

I HAVE CONTACTS. I'M SURE I CAN
PROCURE THE NECESSARY CHEMICALS.

HERE'S WHAT WE NEED.

JACK, AS ONE FRIEND
TO ANOTHER,

THESE DRUGS ARE NASTY.

IF THEY DON'T CURE YOU --

I'LL TURN OUT LIKE
ONE OF YOUR RATS.

I'LL BE IN TOUCH.

COME UP WITH ANYTHING
ON THAT ASSAILANT?

NOT YET.

BUT I AM WRITING
AN ALGORITHM

INTO THE PROGRAM
TO SPEED THINGS UP, SO...

[ CELL PHONE RINGS ]

EXCUSE ME.

YEAH.
HELLO?

Sophia: I HATE TO BOTHER YOU
AT WORK,

BUT I WAS HOPING THAT I COULD
MAKE DINNER FOR YOU

AND SYDNEY AND YOUR BOYFRIENDS
TOMORROW NIGHT.

SOPHIA, YOU DON'T HAVE TO.

IT WOULD MEAN SO MUCH TO ME

AFTER ALL YOU'VE DONE.

ARE WE FREE FOR DINNER
TOMORROW?

DINNER? FOOD?
ARE YOU KIDDING ME? YES.

IT'S FINE WITH US, BUT I HAVE
TO CHECK WITH SYDNEY AND VAUGHN.

GREAT.

[ HANGS UP ]

[ MONKEYS CACKLING ]

JACK.

WERE YOU ABLE TO GET
WHAT I REQUESTED?

YEAH, SURE.

CUTE.

LISTEN, I NEED YOU
TO PROMISE ME

THERE'S NO WAY THIS IS GONNA
GET TRACED BACK TO ME.

I'M FAMILIAR
WITH YOUR CONCERNS.

LOOK, JACK...

I DON'T MEAN TO BE
PRESUMPTUOUS,

TELL YOU HOW TO HANDLE
YOUR BUSINESS,

BUT THE HUMAN BODY IS NOT
DESIGNED TO HANDLE THIS STUFF.

WHOEVER THIS POOR GUY IS
YOU'RE GONNA BE TORTURING --

CURIOUS MORALITY
COMING FROM A GUY

WHO KILLS MONKEYS
FOR A LIVING.

WHAT I'M SAYING --
BE CONSERVATIVE.

A FEW CCs AT A TIME,

OR YOU'RE GONNA BE OUT
OF FUN BEFORE IT BEGINS.

THANKS FOR THE ADVICE.

SO, THIS --

THIS PAYS OFF MY DEBT
TO YOU, RIGHT?

BE SEEING YOU, ANTHONY.

[ MONKEYS CACKLING ]

I NEED A FAVOR.

SURE.
WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU?

PULL UP EVERYTHING YOU'VE GOT
AN ALKYLATING AGENTS

AND CROSS-REFERENCE IT
WITH RADIATION SICKNESS.

OKAY. KIND OF AN ODD
COMBINATION.

WHAT EXACTLY
ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?

SOMETHING'S GOING ON
WITH MY DAD.

I HAVE TO GET
TO THE BOTTOM OF IT.

COMING RIGHT UP.
JUST, UH...

MARSHALL, WHAT'S WRONG
WITH MY FATHER?

HMM?

YOU KNOW, DON'T YOU?

IT WAS AFTER YOUR MISSION
TO YAKUTSK.

YEAH?

GOD, HE PULLED THE FUEL
RIGHT OUT OF THE CORE REACTOR.

HE TOLD ME NOT TO TELL YOU.

HE ACTUALLY MADE ME SWEAR
ON MITCHELL'S LIFE,

BUT SEEING THAT YOU CAME
IN HERE TO ME,

I GUESS I DIDN'T
REALLY VIOLATE --

I THOUGHT YOU SHUT DOWN
THE REACTOR FROM HERE.

SO DID I, AT FIRST.

BUT THEN YOU GOT TRAPPED
IN THE EXPERIMENTAL CHAMBER,

AND HE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE
BEST IF HE WENT INSIDE, AND --

MARSHALL, WHATEVER
INFORMATION YOU HAVE

ON HIS TREATMENT,
I NEED IT NOW.

SYD...
THERE IS NO TREATMENT.

I MEAN, I HAVE BEEN ALL OVER
THE MEDICAL JOURNALS,

HARASSING RESEARCHERS
THAT I KNOW --

SOME THAT I DON'T KNOW.

IF THERE WAS A TREATMENT,

I WOULD HAVE FOUND IT BY NOW.

SYDNEY, WHAT IS IT?

WE HAVE TO FIND MY FATHER.

Sloane: JACK BRISTOW IS IN NEED
OF IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION.

CURRENTLY HE'S OFF THE GRID.

WE'VE TRIED ALL USUAL
AVENUES OF COMMUNICATION.

WE HAVE CONTACTED
EVERY HOSPITAL

AND PRIVATE PRACTICE
IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY.

NO ONE HAS RECORD
OF TREATING HIM.

MAYBE HE CHECKED IN
USING AN ALIAS.

WELL, WE CONSIDERED THAT,

BUT THE GENETIC MUTATION
HE EXPERIENCED

WOULD REQUIRE ANY DOCTOR
TO MAKE SPECIAL NOTE,

AND NOTHING MATCHING
YOUR FATHER'S CRITERIA

HAS BEEN REPORTED.

THE TRUTH IS,
WHATEVER MY FATHER HAS,

IT ISN'T TREATABLE.

IF HE'S AS SICK
AS WE THINK HE IS,

IT'S LIKELY THAT HIS MENTAL
FACULTIES ARE IMPAIRED.

WHICH MEANS SOMEONE MIGHT BE
PREYING ON JACK

USING THE FALSE PROMISE
OF A CURE.

WE MUST ACT QUICKLY.

IF SOMEONE IS ACTIVELY
TRYING TO HARM JACK,

HE MAY BE IN NO POSITION
TO DEFEND HIMSELF.

HOW DID IT GO?

ALL RIGHT.
I'LL PREPARE THIS,

AND WE'LL BE READY TO GO.

CONNIE WILL TAKE CARE
OF YOUR PERSONAL BELONGINGS.

HOW ARE YOU FEELING TODAY,
MR. BRISTOW?

HOPEFUL.

WE GOT A HIT. JACK JUST USED
A DRIVE-THRU ATM ON 9th

ABOUT 20 MINUTES AGO
DOWN NEAR STAPLES CENTER.

GREAT. I'LL LOG ONTO

THE TRAFFIC
SURVEILLANCE NETWORK,

SEE IF I CAN SPOT HIS CAR
LEAVING THE BANK.

FANTASTIC.

COME ON, DAD,
PICK UP YOUR PHONE.

Jack: PLEASE LEAVE YOUR NAME
AND NUMBER

WITH A BRIEF MESSAGE --
DAMN IT.

SYD, WE'LL FIND HIM.

OKAY, I GOT IT!

[ CELL PHONE RINGS ]

YEAH, MARSHALL?

WE FOUND HIS CAR.

IT'S PARKED OUTSIDE
A BUILDING ON PIERPONT.

DO YOU KNOW WHERE
PIERPONT IS?
YEAH, FIVE MINUTES OUT.

OH, THANK YOU, MARSHALL.
REMIND ME TO KISS YOU.

OKAY.

WHAT? WHAT'D SHE SAY?

UH, NOTHING.

EVERYTHING'S SET.

THE WHOLE PROCEDURE SHOULD
TAKE ABOUT FOUR HOURS.

WHAT ARE THESE
RESTRAINTS FOR?

UH, SOME PATIENTS GO
INTO CONVULSIONS

WHEN THEY'RE UNCONSCIOUS.

I DIDN'T WANT YOU
TO HURT YOURSELF.

JACK, HAVE YOU THOUGHT
ABOUT TALKING TO SYDNEY?

I DO KEEP TOO MANY SECRETS.

WHEN THIS IS BEHIND ME,
THAT'S GONNA CHANGE.

SYDNEY DESERVES MORE.

SHE DESERVES TO KNOW

THAT SHE'S THE MOST
IMPORTANT THING IN MY LIFE.

SHE AND LAURA, OF COURSE.

I'M PROUD OF YOU, JACK.

WE FOUND HIS CAR.

[ MAN COUGHING ]

WHAT WOULD MY FATHER
BE DOING HERE?

I DON'T KNOW.

[ COUGHING CONTINUES ]

THAT'S MY FATHER'S JACKET.

WHERE IS THE MAN
YOU TOOK THESE FROM?

HEY! WHERE IS HE?

COME ON.

IF FOR SOME REASON
THIS DOESN'T WORK,

TELL MY GIRLS I LOVE THEM --

SYDNEY AND LAURA.

YOU'RE GONNA PULL
THROUGH THIS, JACK.

I'LL SEE YOU
ON THE OTHER SIDE.

I'D LIKE YOU TO COUNT
BACKWARDS FROM 10.

10...

9...

8...

7...

DAD.
IT'S OKAY.

EVERYTHING'S...

OH, MY GOD, DAD.

MARSHALL, WE NEED
MEDICAL ATTENTION NOW.

DAD...

SYDNEY'S WITH JACK.

THEY'VE TAKEN HIM
TO THE INFIRMARY.

SO HE INJECTED HIMSELF
WITH POISON?

WELL, APPARENTLY HE THOUGHT
IT WAS A CURE.

NOW THEY GOT IT OUT OF HIS
SYSTEM, BUT THIS ILLNESS --

THEY SAY WITHIN 72 HOURS,
HIS CONDITION WILL ADVANCE

TO THE POINT
WHERE IT'S IRREVERSIBLE.

DID HE WAKE UP
IN THE AMBULANCE?

BRIEFLY. HE KEPT WANTING
TO SEE HIS DOCTOR --

DR. LIDDELL.

APPARENTLY HE'S BEEN
SUFFERING

FROM HALLUCINATIONS
FOR WEEKS.

DR. LIDDELL?

YEAH.

DR. ATTICUS LIDDELL.

HE EXISTS?

HE DID.

25 YEARS AGO, ATTICUS LIDDELL

DEVELOPED A RADICAL THESIS
REGARDING THE TREATMENT

OF GENETIC MUTATIONS.

IN 1981, HE LEFT THE U.S.
TO PURSUE HIS THEORIES.

HE WAS WORKING WITH PATIENTS
DEVASTATED

BY AN UNDISCLOSED
NUCLEAR ACCIDENT

IN THE SOVIET UNION.

UNFORTUNATELY,
IT WAS THE COLD WAR.

SHORTLY AFTER HE ARRIVED,

THE SOVIETS BECAME CONVINCED
THAT IN ADDITION

TO BEING A PHYSICIAN,
LIDDELL WAS ALSO A SPY.

WHICH HE WAS.

DID THEY KILL HIM?

NO. ONE OF JACK'S HANDLERS

INFORMED US OF THE RUSSIANS'
SUSPICIONS,

AND JACK WAS ABLE TO EXTRACT HIM
BEFORE THEY COULD ACT.

HE CHANGED HIS NAME,
GAVE HIM A NEW IDENTITY.

THEN THERE MUST BE A RECORD
OF WHERE LIDDELL WAS RELOCATED.

NO. IN THOSE TIMES,
JACK AND HIS HANDLER

HAD A STRICT POLICY --

ANYTHING THAT SENSITIVE,
THEY KEPT NO DOCUMENTATION.

SO WE HAVE TO CONTACT
MY DAD'S HANDLER.

JACK'S HANDLER IS DEAD.

HE DIED EIGHT YEARS AGO.

BUT SUPPOSING JACK KNOWS
WHERE LIDDELL IS,

WHY DIDN'T HE MAKE CONTACT WHEN
HE FIRST DEVELOPED SYMPTOMS?

HE THOUGHT HE DID.

WOW.

MR. BRISTOW HALLUCINATED

THE ONE MAN WHO CAN
ACTUALLY SAVE HIS LIFE.

EVEN HIS DELUSIONS
ARE LUCID.

A MAN LIKE LIDDELL
CAN'T JUST DISAPPEAR.

Sydney: YES, HE COULD,

IF HE WAS HIDDEN
BY MY FATHER.

HEY.

IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO?

WE'RE DOING EVERYTHING
TO FIND A DOCTOR

WHO MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP.

I'M SO SORRY, SYD.

THANK YOU.

I'M GONNA SIT WITH HIM
FOR A WHILE.

YOU WANT COMPANY?
I'LL CANCEL DINNER WITH SOPHIA.

YOU SHOULD KEEP IT.

THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN
DO HERE ANYWAY.

OKAY. BUT IF YOU NEED
ANYTHING...

HI.

HI.

MMM. SOMETHING
SMELLS GOOD.

YOU MUST BE ERIC.

YES.
I'M SOPHIA.

OH, HI. ERIC WEISS.
OH, WOW.

HOW ARE YOU?

I LOVE HER ALREADY.

I'M SO SORRY
SYDNEY COULDN'T MAKE IT.

HOW SICK IS HER FATHER?

IT'S HARD TO SAY.
THEY'RE RUNNING SOME TESTS NOW.

YEAH.
THAT'S AWFUL.

IT'S VERY HARD.
WHEN IT'S A PARENT,

IT'S ALWAYS SO DIFFICULT.

GIVE ME THOSE.
I WANT YOU TWO TO RELAX.

YOU HAD A ROUGH DAY.

I'LL TAKE CARE
OF EVERYTHING.

UH, ERIC?

YEAH?
YOU HAVE NO IDEA
HOW EXCITED I AM TO MEET YOU.

NADIA SAYS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL
THINGS ABOUT YOU.

REALLY?

SHE ASKED ME IF YOU WERE
TALL, DARK, AND HANDSOME.

I TOLD HER YOU WERE TALL.

[ LAUGHS ]

[ MUMBLING ]

DAD?

DAD, CAN YOU HEAR ME?

OH...

OH...

HELLO.

HI.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING --

WHY AM --

I NEED TO ASK YOU
SOMETHING, DAD.

OH, NO.

IT WAS MY TURN
TO PICK UP SYDNEY

AFTER DANCE CLASS.

I'M SORRY.

CAN -- CAN YOU
TAKE CARE OF THAT?

I'LL COVER NEXT TIME,
LAURA, I PROMISE.

LAURA?

I DON'T --

I DON'T KNOW WHY I'M SO
TIRED, SWEETHEART.

I'M SO TIRED.

WHAT ARE THESE,
THE EMPERANAS? THESE ARE INC--

THEY'RE SO GOOD.

EMPANADAS.

WHATEVER.
THEY'RE DELICIOUS.

I TAUGHT NADIA HOW TO MAKE
THEM WHEN SHE WAS VERY LITTLE.

WELL, I'VE BEEN
SERIOUSLY DEPRIVED.

PLEASE.

HAVE YOU EVER MADE THESE
FOR ME?

[ CELL PHONE RINGS ]

[ RING ]
EXCUSE ME.

CAN'T YOU LET IT GO?

I REALLY HAVE TO GET THIS.
I'M SORRY.

NADIA.
[ RING ]

DO YOU WANT SOME MORE WINE?

SURE.
RED? WHITE?

RED.

[ RINGING CONTINUES ]

I KNOW THERE'S -- YOU KNOW,
THERE'S SEAFOOD IN HERE,

BUT WHAT -- WHAT IS THIS?
IS THIS ARTICHOKE HEARTS?

WHAT IS THIS?

MANY THINGS.

AND THE RICE. WHAT IS
THE SPICE IN THE RICE?

I CAN'T -- IS IT, UM...

SAFFRON.

AH. SAFFRON.

I WAS GOING FOR CUMIN.
SAFFRON --

YOUR SECRET INGREDIENT.
OF COURSE.

[ SOFT MUSIC PLAYING ]

IT WAS VAUGHN.

HOW'S JACK?

HE'S TOO FAR GONE, SYDNEY.

IN HIS PRESENT MENTAL STATE,
HE WILL NEVER TELL US

WHERE HE HID LIDDELL.

NOT TO MENTION
THAT IT'S POSSIBLE

YOUR FATHER DOESN'T EVEN
REMEMBER.

MY FATHER DOESN'T
FORGET THINGS.

WE CAN HYPNOTIZE HIM.

YEAH, I CONSIDERED THAT
MYSELF,

BUT GIVEN HIS SITUATION,
HIS CONDITION,

THESE HALLUCINATIONS...

HE CALLED ME LAURA.

HE THOUGHT
I WAS MY MOTHER.

HE CALLED YOU LAURA?
NOT IRINA?

YOU SAID HE CALLED YOU
LAURA.

SUPPOSE WE CONVINCE
YOUR FATHER

THAT HE'S STILL LIVING
IN 1981,

SPECIFICALLY THE DAY
THAT HE EXTRACTED

LIDDELL OUT OF RUSSIA.

MY DAD'S HALLUCINATING.

THAT'S DISTINCTLY DIFFERENT
FROM WHAT YOU'RE SUGGESTING.

NO, NO,
I'M NOT SURE IT IS.

CALLING YOU LAURA,
IMAGINING DR. LIDDELL.

WHAT IF WE COULD RECREATE
HIS SURROUNDINGS?

PERHAPS WE COULD GUIDE
HIS DELUSIONS,

GET HIM TO REVEAL EXACTLY
WHERE HE RELOCATED LIDDELL.

YOU WANT ME TO BE MY MOTHER?

THAT'S RIGHT.

FOUND A GIRL.

SIX YEARS OLD.
SHE'S GOT YOUR EYES.

HER MOM WANTS TO KNOW

IF SHE CAN USE THIS
FOR HER ACTING REEL.

YOU OKAY?

I GET IT. NOT OKAY.

I DON'T KNOW
HOW I'M GONNA DO THIS.

WELL, YOU KNOW,
IT'S NOT TOO LATE.

WE CAN ALWAYS HAVE WEISS
DRESS UP AS IRINA.

I'M SURE HE'D MAKE
A GREAT HOUSEWIFE.

I DON'T REMEMBER MY PARENTS
BACK WHEN THEY WERE TOGETHER.

WELL, YOU WERE
A LITTLE GIRL.

I REMEMBER THE TIME.
I DON'T REMEMBER THEM.

MY DAD...WAS MY DAD.

HE WAS NEVER AROUND
WHEN I WAS A KID.

HE WAS ALWAYS
AWAY ON BUSINESS.

MY MOM...

I DON'T KNOW WHAT MY DAD
WAS LIKE AROUND MY MOTHER,

OR WHAT SHE WAS LIKE
AROUND HIM.

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO THIS.

SYD, IT'S JUST A JOB.

IT'S ANOTHER ALIAS
LIKE ALL OF THE OTHERS.

JUST TRUST YOUR TRAINING.
FOLLOW YOUR DAD'S CUES.

FOLLOW HIS LEAD.

BESIDES, I'VE GOT SNIPERS
EVERYWHERE

IF HE STARTS TO GET
INAPPROPRIATE.

[ GROANS ]

THEY'RE READY.

HEY, LISTEN TO ME.

YOU CAN DO THIS.

OH, MY GOD.

IT'S UNSETTLING, ISN'T IT?

THIS IS MY OLD HOUSE.

IT SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT
AS LONG AS JACK DOESN'T EXAMINE

THE DETAILS TOO CLOSELY,
HMM?

THAT BOWL
IS IN THE WRONG PLACE.

HMM.
IT'S MURANO GLASS.

EMILY AND I GAVE THIS
TO YOUR PARENTS --

OR AT LEAST
THE ORIGINAL VERSION --

AS A HOUSEWARMING GIFT.

IT BELONGS
ON THE COFFEE TABLE.

THAT'S RIGHT.

WE'LL GIVE YOU A FEW MINUTES

AFTER JACK WAKES UP
TO SELL THE ILLUSION.

WHEN THE PHONE RINGS,

GIVE HIM HIS PRIVACY.

MEDICAL WILL MOVE IN AS SOON
AS WE GET LIDDELL'S LOCATION.

WE'LL GET THIS --

WE'LL GET THIS OVER WITH
AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE, SYDNEY.

YOU READY?

YOUR MOTHER USED TO CALL
YOUR FATHER "SWEETHEART."

IT WAS A PET NAME FOR HIM.

GOOD LUCK.

Sloane: HE SHOULD BE
CONSCIOUS IN 30 SECONDS.

TURN ON THE TELEVISION.

OKAY. TV...ON.

Man on TV: FIRST CONFERENCE
PRESIDENT REAGAN HAS HELD

SINCE THE ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT
A MONTH AGO.

AND NOW HERE'S SUE
WITH THE WEATHER.

Woman: ALL RIGHT,
THANK YOU, JIM.

WE'RE LOOKING AT
THE DOWNTOWN L.A.

AND HOLLYWOOD AREA,
WHICH SHOULD REMAIN

SUNNY AND WARM
FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS.

AND YOU FOLKS
IN THE INLAND EMPIRE,

WATCH OUT FOR UNSEASONABLY
WARM TEMPERATURES.

PARTS MAY GET UP
TO THE LOW 100s,

AND THAT MEANS
THE AIR QUALITY IS GONNA BE --

[ CLICKS TV OFF ]

SYDNEY, GO AHEAD.

JACK?

OH, GOOD. YOU'RE HOME.

SYDNEY?

SHE'S UPSTAIRS, ISN'T SHE?

WOULD YOU GIVE ME
A HAND WITH THESE?

SWEETHEART,
IS SOMETHING WRONG?

IT'S NOT WORKING.

JUST GIVE HER
A MOMENT, PLEASE.

ARVIN CALLED.
HE AND EMILY

WANT TO HAVE DINNER
NEXT SATURDAY.

I TOLD HIM WE'D LOVE TO.

YOU COULD HAVE JUST SAID
WE'RE BUSY.

I KNOW YOU PUT UP
WITH ARVIN FOR MY SAKE.

SWEETHEART, HE'S YOUR
BEST FRIEND. I'M YOUR WIFE.

I CAN TOLERATE HIM.

HOW CAN YOU DO THAT?

DO WHAT?

HOW CAN YOU BE SO PERFECT?

LOVING MOTHER...

BEAUTIFUL WIFE, JUST --

JUST BY STANDING THERE.

VAUGHN.

[ TELEPHONE RINGS ]

WOULD YOU GET THAT?

[ RING ]

HELLO.

CONTROL NUMBER 80709.
IS THIS LINE SECURE?

YES, IT IS.

I'M CALLING FROM
AGENT GRADY'S OFFICE.

WE'VE MOVED UP THE TIMETABLE
TO GET LIDDELL OUT OF MINSK.

WE HAVE TO GET HIM
OUT OF THERE NOW.

YES, I UNDERSTAND.

I CAN EXPEDITE
YOUR MOVEMENTS FROM HERE.

WHAT TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS
DO YOU NEED SET UP?

JACK, WHERE DO YOU WANT
LIDDELL MOVED?

HIS MIND'S REJECTING THIS,
POSSIBLY BECAUSE

VAUGHN'S VOICE DOESN'T
SOUND LIKE HIS HANDLER'S.

WE SHOULD SEND IN THE GIRL.

DO IT, MARSHALL.

SENDING IN...THE GIRL.

HI, DAD.

IS IT OKAY IF I PRACTICE
THE PIANO?

OF COURSE.

ARE YOU STILL THERE?

YES, OF COURSE.

I HAVE COMPANY.

I UNDERSTAND.

ABOUT THE DOCTOR,

I'VE BEEN FEELING
A BIT UNDER THE WEATHER,

BUT I'M MUCH BETTER NOW.

IT'S CODE.
DO YOU RECOGNIZE IT?

NO, MUST BE SOMETHING
JACK HAD WITH HIS HANDLER.

GO AHEAD.

DESPITE THAT,
I THINK I'D BE WISE

TO HAVE A CHECKUP.

IT'S BEEN A YEAR
SINCE MY LAST STRESS TEST.

CAN YOU SCHEDULE THAT
FOR ME?

YOU GOT IT.

THANK YOU.

SYDNEY, MARSHALL SHOULD BE
ABLE TO DECODE THE MESSAGE.

KEEP TRYING TO GET
LIDDELL'S LOCATION.

[ PLAYING "TWINKLE, TWINKLE,
LITTLE STAR" ]

SORRY, HONEY.
I HAVE BAD NEWS.

OH?

THAT WAS GRADY.

WHO ELSE WOULD IT BE
THIS EARLY ON A SUNDAY?

HE HAS A MISSION FOR ME.
I'M AFRAID I HAVE TO LEAVE TOWN.

HE TOLD HER.
SHE KNEW HE WAS A SPY.

IT WOULD SEEM SO.

WHAT'S THE MISSION?

THERE'S A DOCTOR
WHOSE RESEARCH

HAS PUT HIS LIFE IN DANGER.

I NEED TO MAKE HIM
DISAPPEAR.

NEW NAME, NEW IDENTITY,
NEW LIFE.

LOW RISK. I PROMISE.

WHERE WILL YOU TAKE HIM?

FINLAND.

THE MEDICAL COMMUNITY
THERE --

MARSHALL, RUN A BIOMETRIC
OF DR. LIDDELL

AGAINST THE DATABASES
OF FINNISH PASSPORT OFFICES

AND MEDICAL LICENSING BOARD.
ALREADY ON IT.

SYDNEY, WE GOT IT.
GOOD WORK.

WHAT CONCERNS ME -- I WON'T
BE BACK UNTIL NEXT WEEK.

I'LL MISS SYDNEY'S
BIRTHDAY AGAIN.

THAT'S OKAY.

YOU'LL EXPLAIN IT TO HER.
SHE'LL UNDERSTAND.

SHE'S A CHILD.

SHE SHOULDN'T NEED
TO UNDERSTAND

HER FATHER ISN'T HOME
TO CELEBRATE HER BIRTHDAY.

LAURA, THE ONLY MEMORIES
I HAVE OF MY FATHER

ARE OF HIM LEAVING.

I DON'T WANT IT
TO BE THAT WAY FOR HER.

SHE DESERVES BETTER.

THE WORK YOU DO
IS IMPORTANT.

NOT AS IMPORTANT AS HER.

OR YOU.

WHEN I GET BACK FROM EUROPE,

I'M GOING TO TALK
TO MY SUPERVISORS.

WHAT ABOUT?

I'M GIVING NOTICE.

SORRY.

I SHOULD HAVE
DISCUSSED THIS WITH YOU

BEFORE I MADE
ANY DECISIONS.

NO.

THAT MEANS MORE TO ME
THAN YOU'LL EVER KNOW.

[ "TWINKLE, TWINKLE,
LITTLE STAR" PLAYING ON PIANO ]

Sloane: WE'LL SEND IN
THE MED TECHS

TO SEDATE YOUR FATHER.

[ PIANO CONTINUES ]

THAT'S GOOD.
CAN I JOIN YOU?

UH-HUH.
OKAY.

[ BOTH PLAYING "TWINKLE,
TWINKLE, LITTLE STAR" ]

LAUR-- AHH!

DR. LIDDELL.

JACK BRISTOW
NEEDS YOUR HELP.

GUYS! WEISS, NADIA,
HOLD ON.

I WAS ABOUT TO RUN
SOME MORE CARBIDE TESTS

ON THE HYDROSECT --

CASE CARBIDE TESTS,
AND I WENT TO GET IT

OUT OF COLD STORAGE,
AND IT WASN'T THERE,

BUT OF COURSE
YOU KNEW THAT.
HOW WOULD WE KNOW THAT?

WELL, IT WAS MOVED
AT YOUR REQUEST

BY YOUR UNIT TO A LOW-SECURITY
FACILITY OFF-SITE.

I'M JUST WONDERING WHY, 'CAUSE
THAT'S SOME DANGEROUS STUFF.

EXCUSE ME, SIR.

I'M TERRIBLY SORRY,
BUT I'M LOST.

COULD YOU PLEASE TELL ME WHERE
DIVISION STREET IS, PLEASE?

SURE. ACTUALLY DIVISION STREET
IS THE ONE-WAY STREET

HEADING NORTH.

WHAT'S GOING ON?

JUST SOME LADY
ASKING DIRECTIONS.

NO ONE IN OUR UNIT
AUTHORIZED ANYTHING.

WELL, THE REQUEST
WAS AUTHENTICATED.

IT CAME OVER
OUR SECURE NETWORK.

THE SECURITY SYSTEM'S
OFFLINE.

I'M CALLING IT IN.

YOU'RE SAYING THAT WAY
IS A ONE-WAY STREET, GOES --

RIGHT -- AAH!

HEY, HEY, HEY,
HOW DID YOU GET IN --

[ DIALING ]

[ TELEPHONE RINGS ]

[ RING ]

NOTHING. I'M GETTING NOTHING.
NO ANSWER.
LET'S GO.

IT'S DOUBLE-FOLDED
TITANIUM.

TAKE A LOOK AT THIS.

YOU CAN CUT THROUGH THAT.

Man: DONE.

THE HYDROSECT'S GONE.

OH, GOD.

IT'S THE GUY FROM VIENNA.

THE ONE SYDNEY
AND VAUGHN --

WHAT THE HELL
HAPPENED HERE?

[ DOOR OPENS ]
