Alias (2001–2006): Season 4, Episode 8 - Echoes - full transcript

WE WERE DRIVING ON MULHOLLAND --
YOU KNOW, ALL THE CURVES,

AND WE COME AROUND
THIS CORNER,

AND THE SUN'S
RIGHT IN OUR EYES.

EGG WHITES?

SURE. THANKS.

SO THE SUN'S IN YOUR FACE?

COMPLETELY BLINDING ME.

AND THE FIRST THING HE DOES
WITHOUT EVEN THINKING ABOUT IT,

HE SLAPS DOWN THE...

VISOR.
YEAH, THE VISOR.

SO THE SUN'S
NOT IN MY EYES.



AND I JUST THOUGHT,
THAT WAS SO SWEET.

HE REALLY LIKES YOU.

HE'S SO FUNNY.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA BREAK
HIS HEART, THOUGH, RIGHT?

ME?
ERIC'S A FRIEND.
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

NO, I LIKE HIM, TOO.

BUT?

BUT NOTHING.

[ CELLULAR PHONES RING ]

HELLO?
YEAH?

YEAH, I'LL BE THERE.

WE'LL EAT LATER.
Vaughn: SHE COMPARED YOU
TO ICE CREAM?

YEAH, VANILLA SWISS ALMOND,

WHICH IS A REALLY
SIGNIFICANT FLAVOR.



I'M NOT SAYING IT'S NOT.

AND THEN SHE SAID THAT
I'M THIS BIG SPOONFUL.

WHICH YOU TOOK
AS A COMPLIMENT?

I TAKE EVERYTHING SHE SAYS
AS A COMPLIMENT.

SHE'S GOT THAT GREAT ACCENT.

I DON'T KNOW. I CAN'T
EVEN LOOK AT THIS GIRL,

SHE'S SO PRETTY.

NADIA'S GREAT.
I KNOW THAT, ALL RIGHT?

BUT YOU MIGHT WANT TO JUST
CONSIDER TAKING IT SLOW.

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.
WHAT'S WITH THE WARNING?

SALLY VINCENT.

SALLY -- THAT WAS A COMPLETELY
DIFFERENT STORY.

HOW IS THAT DIFFERENT?

WHEN IT ENDED,
YOU WERE ALL, LIKE, WEIRD.

WEIRD HOW?
YOU WERE BUILDING SHIPS
IN BOTTLES.

YOU BUILT MANY, MANY SHIPS
IN MANY BOTTLES

OVER MANY, MANY MONTHS.

YEAH, THAT'S CALLED A HOBBY.
A HOBBY? YOU LOCKED YOURSELF
IN A CLOSET FOR A MONTH,

TELL ME YOU DON'T STILL
THINK ABOUT

HOW I GOT THOSE SHIPS
IN THE BOTTLES.

HEY.
HI.

HEY.
HEY.

Vaughn: WHAT'S GOING ON?

WE GOT CALLED IN, BUT THEY'VE
BEEN IN THERE ALL MORNING.

THAT'S WEIRD.
WHAT DO YOU THINK IT IS?

WE DON'T KNOW.
HERE WE GO.

AS YOU KNOW,
MY POSITION HERE AT A.P.O.

IS CONTINGENT UPON
AN AGREEMENT I MADE

WITH DIRECTOR CHASE'S OFFICE
LAST YEAR.

THAT AGREEMENT INCLUDES
A SHORT LIST

OF OPERATIVES WITH WHOM I AM NOT
AUTHORIZED TO ENGAGE.

SO THAT IF A MISSION AROSE

THAT INVOLVED
ANY OF THESE PEOPLE,

I AM TO IMMEDIATELY
RECUSE MYSELF.

I AM TO STEP DOWN.

WELL, THAT DAY HAS COME.

SO AS OF NOW, I AM GIVING
FULL OPERATIONAL AUTHORITY

OVER YOUR NEXT ASSIGNMENT
TO JACK BRISTOW.

I WOULD ASK
FOR YOUR COOPERATION

IN NOT INVOLVING ME AT ALL.

GOOD LUCK.

SO, WHAT,
HE'S NOT COMING BACK?

WHEN THIS MATTER
IS RESOLVED, YES.

IF SLOANE CAN'T TOUCH
THIS CASE,

THEN WHY DID THEY ASSIGN IT
TO HIS TASK FORCE?

BECAUSE OF SYDNEY.
OUR TARGET IS SOMEONE

WITH WHOM SEVERAL OF YOU
ARE QUITE FAMILIAR.

WHO IS IT?

ANNA ESPINOSA.

I THO--

SHE'S SUPPOSED TO BE DEAD.

SO ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE.

WHO IS SHE?

FORMER SOVIET AGENT
RAISED IN CUBA.

USED TO BE K-DIRECTORATE.

FOUR DAYS AGO,
OUR LONDON LISTENING POST

INTERCEPTED CHATTER ABOUT
A DEAD DROP

FROM A SUSPECTED
TERRORIST GROUP.

SATELLITE SURVEILLANCE
OF THE SPECIFIED LOCATION

REVEALED THIS.

MARSHALL.

THANK YOU.

AND CONGRATULATIONS
ON THE, UH...

UH, NOW, I PULLED THE FILES
ON MISS ESPINOSA.

SHE SPECIALIZES
IN CLOSE-QUARTER KILLS,

STRANGULATION, EDGED WEAPONS,
GUNS, HIGH-LEVEL THEFT,

SECURITY BREECH --

SHE SPENT SIX YEARS ON
INTERPOL'S MOST-WANTED LIST.

SIX AND A HALF, ACTUALLY.
DID THE --

AFTER SHE LEFT K-DIRECTORATE,
SHE WENT FREELANCE.

WORKED FOR THE HIGHEST BIDDER.

YOU KNOW, GIVE HER THE DOUGH,
SHE'LL GIVE YOU THE SHOW.

SHE'S ALSO ASSOCIATED
WITH THE FOLLOWERS OF RAMBALDI.

Jack: INTEL INDICATES
ANNA'S MAKING CONTACT

WITH AN ASSOCIATE
IN BRUSSELS 36 HOURS FROM NOW...

EXCUSE ME.

CONCERNING AN ASSIGNMENT --

SYDNEY?

YOU WANT US TO SURVEILLE
THE MEET.

YES.
YOU, MARSHALL, AND DIXON.

GIVEN YOUR FAMILIARITY
WITH ANNA'S METHODS,

I WANT YOU TO TRACK
HER MOVEMENTS.

FIND OUT
WHAT THE ASSIGNMENT IS.

IF THE OPPORTUNITY
PRESENTS ITSELF,

YOU'RE AUTHORIZED
TO BRING HER IN.

THE CATEGORY OF FORCE
YOU CHOOSE TO EXERCISE

WILL REMAIN CLASSIFIED.

WHEN DO WE LEAVE?

WE'RE ARRANGING A JET
FOR THIS EVENING.

YOU'LL HAVE 20 HOURS IN COUNTRY
TO COORDINATE BEFORE THE MEET.

THAT'S ALL.

WHAT HAPPENED?

I DON'T KNOW.

ARE YOU OKAY?

I GOT LIGHTHEADED.

WE HAVE A WHILE
BEFORE WE HAVE TO LEAVE.

DO YOU WANT TO GRAB
SOMETHING TO EAT?

SURE.

IT WAS JUST ME AND ANNA

IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE STADIUM.

I HAVE THE KEY,
SHE HAS THE BOX.

WE NEEDED TO WORK TOGETHER
TO GET THE CODE.

BUT THERE SHE IS
RIGHT NEXT TO ME.

ALL I KEPT THINKING WAS,

I COULD TAKE HER OUT
RIGHT NOW.

END IT ONCE AND FOR ALL.

THAT WASN'T YOUR ASSIGNMENT.

NOT THAT NIGHT.

BUT I SWORE TO MYSELF
IF I EVER HAD THE CHANCE AGAIN,

I WOULD NOT HESITATE.

THIS CAN'T BE EASY
FOR YOU.

I'M NOT WORRIED ABOUT ME.

WHAT'S GOING ON WITH YOU?

I KNOW ONLY A FEW THINGS
ABOUT RAMBALDI.

I KNOW HE WAS A PROPHET,
15th CENTURY.

I KNOW MY FATHER WAS --
IS -- I DON'T KNOW,

OBSESSED WITH HIM.

LAST YEAR, WHEN MY FATHER
CONNECTED ME TO RAMBALDI,

I STARTED TO HALLUCINATE,
AND...

I SAW SOMETHING AWFUL.

SOUNDS AND FAST IMAGES --

THEY WENT BY QUICKLY,
BUT...

THERE WAS ONE VISION
THAT FELT SO REAL.

WHAT WAS IT?

WE WERE BOTH TOGETHER,

SCARED AND UPSET,

HOLDING GUNS

AIMED AT EACH OTHER.

AND I REMEMBER
MY HANDS WERE SHAKING.

AND I PULLED THE TRIGGER.

BLOOD WAS POURING DOWN
YOUR CHEST, AND...

I WANTED TO SAY I WAS SORRY,

BUT YOU JUST LOOKED AT ME

AS IF YOU'D BEEN
EXPECTING IT.

AS IF YOU KNEW ALL ALONG...

KNEW I WAS GOING
TO KILL YOU.

I KNOW I MUST SOUND INSANE.

NADIA, THERE'S SOMETHING
I SHOULD HAVE TOLD YOU.

MISS BRISTOW?

THERE'S A CALL FOR YOU.

HI.

HERE YOU GO.

HELLO?

Anna: HELLO, SYDNEY.

ANNA.

TURN AROUND.

I'D ADVISE AGAINST
ANY ACTION.

MY ASSOCIATES
WOULDN'T LIKE THAT.

THERE'S SOMETHING I NEED YOU
TO DO FOR ME, SYDNEY.

I MUST SAY,

I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD
TO WORKING WITH YOU AGAIN.

ANNA HAS NADIA.

SHE KNEW SHE WAS GOING TO BE
INTERCEPTED IN BRUSSELS,

SO SHE TOOK HER.
IF I DON'T DO WHAT SHE SAYS,

DAD, SHE'S GOING TO KILL
MY SISTER.

Jack:
IF WE DON'T MEET HER DEMANDS,

ANNA ESPINOSA CLAIMS
SHE'LL KILL NADIA.

WE HAVE 18 HOURS TO COMPLY.

WHAT ARE HER DEMANDS?

SHE WANTS ME TO TAKE
THE MEET IN BRUSSELS

POSING AS HER.
I'M TO RETRIEVE A PACKAGE

FROM A MAN
NAMED MILOS SABINE.

IF I DELIVER IT TO HER --
A BOUTIQUE IN BEVERLY HILLS --

BY A SPECIFIED TIME,
SHE CLAIMS SHE'LL LET NADIA GO.

SYDNEY, SCRAP THE SURVEILLANCE
OP IN BRUSSELS.

GET WITH MARSHALL
TO COORDINATE NEW PARAMETERS.

YOU'RE GOING IN
AS ANNA ESPINOSA.

DIG UP EVERYTHING YOU CAN
ABOUT SABINE --

BUSINESS ASSOCIATES, LAST-KNOWN
WHEREABOUTS, THE WORKS.

COORDINATE WITH LANGLEY.
WE'LL NEED TOTAL SATELLITE

COVERAGE OF THE MEETING POINT.

I WANT SNIPER TEAMS AND FULL
GROUND SUPPORT READY TO GO.

ON IT.

WE'LL WHEELS UP
WITHIN THE HOUR.

APPROACHING
THE METRO STATION.

Vaughn: DO YOU SEE
ANYONE?

WHITE MALE, LATE 70s.

THERE'S NO PHOTO
IN HIS FILE,

BUT BASED ON ESTIMATED
DATE OF BIRTH,

THIS COULD BE OUR GUY.

[ Imitating Anna ]
THIS TIME OF YEAR

DOES TERRIBLE THINGS
TO MY HAIR.

MISS ESPINOSA.

HOW I WISH
THAT I WERE YOUNGER.

DO YOU HAVE THE PACKAGE?

WHAT YOUR ASSOCIATES
HAVE REQUESTED OF ME

IS...HIGHLY VALUABLE.

I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE SURE
THAT I GET MY MONEY'S WORTH.

ARE YOU PREPARED TO REACH
YOUR END?

I'M ALWAYS PREPARED

ONCE APPRISED
OF THE SPECIFICS.

30 MINUTES AGO

A MAN ENTERED
THE HOTEL METROPOL.

HE IS CURRENTLY ENJOYING
A 17-YEAR-OLD SCOTCH

IN THE BAR LOCATED

IN THE WEST LOBBY
OF THE HOTEL.

THE MAN'S NAME
IS WILLEM KARG.

THIS IS THE MAN.

THE MAN YOU ARE TO KILL.

I WILL REQUIRE
PHOTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE

OF HIS CORPSE,
PLUS WHAT I UNDERSTAND

IS YOUR KEEPSAKE --

HIS RIGHT INDEX FINGER.

I WILL BE SITTING
ON THIS BENCH

FOR THE NEXT 40 MINUTES.

RETURN WITHIN THAT TIME,

AND YOU WILL GET
YOUR PACKAGE.

AFTER THAT,

I WILL NOT BE
SITTING ON THIS BENCH.

TICK-TOCK, MISS ESPINOSA.

HOTEL METROPOL --
SEVEN BLOCKS AWAY.
WE HAVE 32 MINUTES.

MARSHALL, HOW ARE WE
DOING ON KARG?

DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING
ON HIM YET?
ON ITS WAY.

IT'S A RATHER LARGE FILE.

WE GOT IT.

THIS GUY'S WANTED
IN FOUR DIFFERENT COUNTRIES.

MONEY LAUNDERING,
KIDNAPPING, CONSPIRACY.

AFFILIATIONS --

RUSSIAN AND CHINESE
ORGANIZED CRIME SYNDICATES.

KNOWN ASSOCIATES --
ANTON MATTEO AND PETER GIGER.

SOLICITATION
FOR PROSTITUTION,

THREE CHARGES.

THIS GUY'S GOT A REAL
THING FOR HOOKERS.

WAIT.

Man: THERE YOU ARE, MA'AM.

ROOM 1132. TWO KEYS.

WILL YOU BE NEEDING
ANY HELP WITH ANY BAGS?

[ French accent ] NO, THANK YOU.
I'M TRAVELING LIGHT.

WILLEM?

JA?

DO YOU KNOW

HOW HARD IT HAS BEEN
TO FIND YOU?

IF I KNEW YOU WERE LOOKING,

I WOULD HAVE MADE IT
A LOT EASIER.

MATTEO SAID YOU WERE NOT
DRINKING ANYMORE,

YOU BAD BOY.

I WON'T TELL MATTEO.

HOW DO YOU KNOW
MY BUSINESS PARTNER?

WHO DO YOU THINK
SENT ME TO YOU?

I AM MATTEO'S
EARLY BIRTHDAY PRESENT.

REALLY?

HE WOULDN'T TELL ME
HOW OLD YOU WERE.

HE KNOWS I DON'T USUALLY...

WORK WITH OLDER MEN.

YOU DON'T SEEM SO OLD.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

WE HAVE A ROOM.

SHALL WE?

SO IT'S HAPPY BIRTHDAY
TO ME, JA?

GREAT, BEAUTIFUL ARMS.

I LOVE...ARMS.

HEY, WHAT --
WHAT IS THIS?

IT'S YOUR LUCKY DAY.
YOU GET TO LIVE.

WE'RE GONNA NEED
THAT RING.

AND THE FINGER IT'S ON.
WHAT'S HAPPENING?!

THERE ARE PEOPLE OUT THERE
WHO WANT YOU DEAD.

FORTUNATELY FOR YOU,
WE'RE NOT THEM.

WHEN THIS IS OVER,
YOU'RE GONNA WALK

OUT OF THIS HOTEL
AND DISAPPEAR.

YOU'LL THANK US FOR IT LATER.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING? AAH!

YOU LOOK LIKE HER.

YOUR MOTHER.

DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME
TRYING TO SCARE ME.

YOU ARE SCARED.

I WOULD BE SCARED, TOO,

IF I DID NOT UNDERSTAND
WHAT THIS WAS ALL ABOUT.

SHE TOLD ME ABOUT YOU.

SYDNEY.

I KNOW ENOUGH.

YOUR SISTER --
SHE'S A CURSE.

YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENS,
DON'T YOU?

TO EVERYONE SHE LOVES.

ONE DAY YOU WILL BE ASKED
TO PAY THE PRICE.

TODAY

YOU WILL FEEL
A LITTLE BIT OF THAT.

PLEASE! PLEASE!

THERE MUST BE
ANOTHER WAY! PLEASE!

WE'VE GOT NINE MINUTES LEFT.

[ KARG SHOUTING ]
KEEP HIM QUIET.

YEAH.

PLEASE!
BITE THIS. BITE THIS.

YOU GOT HIM?

LOOK AT ME.

LOOK AT ME.

[ KARG GRUNTING ]

LOOK AT ME. LOOK AT ME.

LOOK AT ME.

AAH!

AAH! AAH!

AAH! AAH! AAH!

[ CONTINUES SCREAMING ]

WHAT ARE YOU PEOPLE DOING?

Vaughn: DON'T MOVE.

YOUR REPUTATION
IS WELL-EARNED.

I STILL WISH
I WERE YOUNGER.

YOU SHOULD LET
YOUR ASSOCIATES KNOW

THAT THIS IS THE LAST
REMAINING SAMPLE.

THEY SHOULD TREAT IT
AS IF IT WERE SACRED.

ABSOLUTELY.

HA HA.

I'VE GOT IT.
I'M ON MY WAY.

THIS IS A GIFT

FROM ME...

TO YOU...

TO SYDNEY.

EVERY TIME SHE LOOKS AT YOU,

I WANT HER TO THINK OF ME.

AND ONE DAY,

WHETHER YOU CHOOSE TO
OR NOT,

YOU WILL HELP ME
DESTROY HER.

AAH!

THE LAB CONFIRMED

IT'S THE DANTE COMPOUND --

A SUPER-RARE
PHOSPHOROUS-BASED PUTTY.

BUT NOT THE SAME KIND
OF PUTTY YOU'D USE

ON THE NEWSPAPER
TO COPY "BEETLE BAILEY"

OUT OF -- YOU EVER
DO THAT WITH --

ANYWAY, IT'S COMPLETELY
HARMLESS ON ITS OWN.

BUT WHEN MIXED
WITH CERTAIN NERVE AGENTS --

VX GAS IN PARTICULAR --
BOO-YAH-CA!

IT MUTATES THE NEUROTOXINS,
CAUSING THEM TO SELF-REPLICATE

AT A RATE THAT WOULD BE,
LIKE, HISTORIC.

WE'LL HAVE TO SECURE
ALL CHEMICAL LABORATORIES

THAT MANUFACTURE VX.

HOW LONG WOULD IT TAKE YOU
TO CONSTRUCT A FAKE?

A FAKE? YOU MEAN LIKE
SOMETHING THAT WOULD

ACTUALLY PASS
AS THE REAL THING?

SYDNEY'S MEETING WITH ANNA
IN 30 MINUTES.

TURNING THIS OVER TO HER
IS NOT THE IDEAL OPTION.

CAN YOU DO IT?

NO. ABSOLUTELY NOT, NO.

OKAY, PROBABLY.

BUT, LISTEN, ONE MORE THING.

I KNOW THIS ISN'T, YOU KNOW,
LIKE MY PROVINCE,

BUT I THINK I HAVE AN IDEA
WHO ANNA'S WORKING FOR.

THERE'S THIS FRINGE
TERRORIST CELL

CALLED THE CADMUS
REVOLUTIONARY FRONT.

YEAH, THEY'RE FORMER COVENANT.

RIGHT, SO I DON'T NEED
TO TELL YOU HOW -- DO YOU?

YES, I KNOW WHO THEY ARE.

WELL, TURNS OUT THE CRF --
THEY'VE BEEN TRYING TO ACQUIRE

THE DANTE COMPOUND
FOR OVER A YEAR.

I THINK THEY'RE TRYING
TO BUILD A CHEMICAL BOMB.

I READ THE ECHELON REPORT
ON THE CRF.

WE DON'T KNOW
WHAT THEIR AGENDA IS.

THEN WE INCREASE
OUR KNOWLEDGE BASE.

FIGURE A WAY TO PENETRATE
THE CRF

AND DETERMINE THEIR MOTIVES.

WELL, WE ACTUALLY HAVE SOMEBODY
IN CUSTODY WITH CRF CONNECTIONS,

CONSIDERING
THEIR COVENANT TIES AND ALL.

OH, GOD.

Sydney: IF WE GIVE
ANNA A FAKE,

SHE WILL KILL NADIA.
YOU KNOW THAT.

TURNING OVER THE COMPOUND
WOULD BE IRRESPONSIBLE,

NOT TO MENTION UNNECESSARY.

MY RESPONSIBILITY
IS TO GET NADIA BACK --

SAFE, ALIVE.

Sloane:
HE'S RIGHT, SYDNEY.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

I'M TRYING
TO SAVE YOUR DAUGHTER.

GIVING ANNA THE COMPOUND
IS AN UNNECESSARY RISK.

UNNECESSARY?

SHE WON'T KILL HER.
IT'S NOT HER DESTINY.

PLEASE TELL ME THIS IS NOT
ABOUT WHAT I THINK IT IS.

IF YOU HAD FAITH,
YOU WOULD KNOW WHAT I KNOW.

FAITH IN A 15th CENTURY
LUNATIC?

DAD, PLEASE TELL ME RAMBALDI
IS NOT DICTATING PROCEDURES.

HE HAS NO AUTHORITY HERE,

AND I KNOW ANNA BETTER
THAN ANYONE.

THAT'S WHY YOU CHOSE ME
FOR THIS MISSION.

DAD, PLEASE, I NEED TO GET
MY SISTER BACK.

THANK YOU.

YOU SHOULDN'T BE HERE,
ARVIN.

HEY.

HEY.

WHERE ARE YOU GOING?
I'LL TELL YOU LATER.
WHEN'S THE MEET WITH ANNA?

NOW.

NADIA'S GONNA BE OKAY.

I JUST WANT THE GHOSTS
TO GO AWAY.

TELL ME ABOUT IT.

* ANOTHER BRIDE

* ANOTHER JUNE

* ANOTHER SUNNY

* HONEYMOON

* ANOTHER SEASON

* ANOTHER REASON

* FOR MAKIN' WHOOPEE

HERE.

NICE WORK.

YOU AREN'T EVEN
GONNA LOOK AT IT?

I TRUST YOU.

YOU WOULDN'T TRY
TO DECEIVE ME, WOULD YOU?

WHERE'S MY SISTER?

WAIT FIVE MINUTES
AFTER MY EXIT,

THEN GO TO THE FOURTH FLOOR
OF THE PARKING STRUCTURE

ACROSS THE STREET...

OR MY FRIENDS WILL BLOW
A HOLE IN YOUR HEART.

GET YOUR HANDS OFF ME.

IT WAS NICE
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR SISTER.

* HE DOESN'T PHONE

* HE DOESN'T WRITE

* HE SAYS HE'S BUSY

* BUT I SAY, "IS HE?"

* HE'S MAKIN' WHOOPEE

* HE DOESN'T MAKE MUCH MONEY

* ONLY FIVE THOUSAND PER

* SOME JUDGE
WHO THINKS HE'S FUNNY *

DISPATCH, I NEED BACKUP.

SHE CAN HAVE THE BLOUSE.

* THE JUDGE SAYS BUDGE

* RIGHT INTO JAIL

* HE'D BETTER KEEP HER

* I THINK IT'S CHEAPER

* THAN MAKIN' WHOOPEE

[ ALARM CHIRPS ]

ARE YOU OKAY?

OPEN IT UP.

PROCEDURE DICTATES --

WE'RE OLD FRIENDS.

ACTUALLY, GIVEN OUR SHARED
INTIMACIES WITH YOUR LATE WIFE,

I MAY EVEN GO SO FAR
AS TO SAY THAT WE'RE FAMILY.

[ CELL DOOR BUZZES ]

MR. VAUGHN, YOUR TIMING
IS IMPECCABLE.

THE LAST OF MY BROKEN BONES
IS FINALLY HEALED,

AND I SIT BEFORE YOU
A FRESH CANDIDATE

FOR YOUR AGGRESSION.

BEFORE WE BEGIN
WHATEVER INQUISITION

YOU'RE HERE FOR, THERE IS
A PESKY QUESTION

THAT'S BEEN LINGERING
IN MY HEAD.

DO YOU MIND?

GO AHEAD.

WAS IT THE INFIDELITY

OR THE ESPIONAGE
THAT MOTIVATED YOU

TO KILL THE WOMAN I LOVED?

THE WOMAN YOU LOVED?

YES.

LOVED.

YOU KNOW, SHE ONCE
ACTUALLY TOLD ME

THAT SHE LONGED
TO LOVE YOU,

BUT THE MUNDANE EXISTENCE
YOU PROVIDED

COULDN'T HOLD A CANDLE
TO MY PASSION.

THAT WASN'T FOR SLEEPING WITH
THE WOMAN I WAS MARRIED TO.

I COULDN'T CARE LESS
ABOUT HER.

THEN WHAT? THE TORTURE?

THIS IS HOW IT'S GONNA BE,

AND I'M ONLY GOING TO GIVE
YOU ONE SHOT AT THIS.

THE CRF -- THEY'VE HIRED
ANNA ESPINOSA.

THEY'RE BUILDING A BOMB.

WHY HAVE THEY MADE REPEATED
ATTEMPTS TO CONTACT YOU?

SO IT'S BEGUN.

WHAT HAS?

WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO KNOW.

WELL, YOU'RE GONNA TELL ME
WHAT THEY'RE PLANNING

AND WHERE THEY'RE LOCATED.

AND IF YOU'RE FISHING FOR
SOME TYPE OF PARDON AGREEMENT,

IT'S NOT IN THE CARDS.
BUT I AM WILLING

TO PROVIDE YOU
CERTAIN AMENITIES

THAT WILL MAKE YOUR LIFE
IN CONFINEMENT

A LITTLE MORE COMFORTABLE.

I SEE
YOUR BARGAINING SKILLS

HAVE GONE THE WAY
OF YOUR MANHOOD.

LET ME REPHRASE THAT.

I'D BE WILLING TO LEAVE YOU
WITH WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE

AND NOT MAKE YOUR LIFE
MORE UNCOMFORTABLE.

I DON'T SEE THAT THERE'S
MUCH LEFT TO TAKE AWAY.

YOU STONEWALL ME,

AND I'LL HAVE YOU SHIPPED
TO ALDER PENITENTIARY,

AND I'LL HAVE YOU SECURED
IN DARKENED SOLITARY

TILL THE END OF DAYS.

24/7 IN A PITCH BLACK CELL
WITH ZERO HUMAN CONTACT

IS A SLOW WAY TO DIE,

ESPECIALLY WITH ALL THE DEMONS
YOU'VE GOT IN YOUR CLOSET.

AND BELIEVE ME,
THEY WILL COME KNOCKING.

I REGRET TO INFORM YOU,
MR. VAUGHN...

I'M NOT AFRAID OF THE DARK.

YOU SHOULD BE.

I'M HAVING YOU TRANSFERRED
TO ALDER TONIGHT.

[ CELL DOOR BUZZES ]

[ DOOR BUZZES ]

HOW DID HE RESPOND?

AS EXPECTED.

WE'LL SEND IN

THE SURGICAL TEAM
THIS EVENING.

WHAT DID SHE DO TO YOU?

I'LL BE OKAY.

ARE YOU SURE?

MM-HMM. I SHOULD GO.

HEY.

I'M SO GLAD
YOU'RE ALL RIGHT.

THANK YOU, SYDNEY.

THE DOCTOR'S WAITING.

THE TISSUE IN THE SCORCHED
REGION'S COMPLETELY MACERATED,

SO WE'LL HAVE TO GRAFT
NEW SKIN.

BUT WE CAN FIX THIS.

THANK YOU.

I'LL BE BACK IN A MINUTE
AND DRESS IT FOR YOU.

WE'RE GONNA FIND ANNA.

WE KNOW WHO SHE'S
WORKING FOR NOW.

WE'RE TRACKING HER DOWN.

SHE SAID THINGS ABOUT US.

THAT WE'LL BE TORN APART.

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

Sydney: WHEN MOM DIED,

I REQUESTED CLEARANCE
TO HER FILES.

I GOT IT.

THERE WAS AN AUDIO TAPE --

SURVEILLANCE FROM
A HOTEL ROOM IN HAMBURG.

SHE WAS TALKING TO A MAN.
HIS VOICE WAS NEVER IDENTIFIED.

SHE WAS DESCRIBING
THE SYMBOLOGY OF THIS --

THE MARK OF RAMBALDI.

SHE SAID THE OUTER MARKINGS
REPRESENTED HER TWO DAUGHTERS.

THE CENTER IS THE OBJECT

OVER WHICH THEY WILL DO
GREAT BATTLE...

WITH EACH OTHER.

THOSE WERE HER WORDS.

AND THEN MOM WENT QUIET.

IT WAS ALMOST LIKE
THE NEXT PART WAS TOO PAINFUL.

TELL ME.

NADIA, IT'S INSANE.

WHAT?

ACCORDING TO RAMBALDI,

ONLY ONE OF THE DAUGHTERS
WILL SURVIVE.

I AM NOT GOING TO LIE
TO YOU.

SOME OF THE PREDICTIONS
RAMBALDI MADE

HAVE COME TRUE.

SO IF --

IF YOU WANT TO GO BACK...

TO ARGENTINA?

DO YOU BELIEVE
IN ALL THIS?

RAMBALDI?

NO.

BUT THE PEOPLE WHO DO
ARE DANGEROUS.

THEY'RE ZEALOTS WHO WILL
STOP AT NOTHING

TO MAKE THEIR VISIONS
INTO REALITY.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

CHANGE MY LIFE
BECAUSE SOME FREAKSHOW

MADE A PREDICTION
400 YEARS AGO?

ANNA CONTRIVED
TO TEAR US APART

TO MAKE SOME RIDICULOUS
PROPHECY COME TRUE.

BUT WE'RE TOGETHER NOW.

[ AIR HISSING ]

[ CELL DOOR BUZZES ]

[ BEEPING ]

[ CELL DOOR BUZZES ]

Vaughn: SARK'S BEING
TRANSPORTED TO ALDER TONIGHT.

GOOD, BECAUSE HIS TRACKING
DEVICE IS IN.

THAT ANAESTHETIC GAS --
TOTALLY KNOCKED SARK OUT.

DIDN'T KNOW WHAT HIT HIM.

HOW MANY HOURS UNTIL
THE DELAYED ACTIVATOR GOES HOT?

24. OH, AND IF THE CRF
TRIES TO RUN

A COUNTERSURVEILLANCE
SWEEP ON SARK,

NO DETECTO.

THAT'S NOT THE ONLY
MODIFICATION

THAT MR. BRISTOW AUTHORIZED.

THE TRACKER IS PACKED
WITH A HIGH-DENSITY EXPLOSIVE.

JUST ENOUGH
TO BLOW OFF HIS MELON

IN CASE HE TRIES
TO GO OFF-BOOK.

YOU MESS WITH A FRIEND
OF FLINKMAN,

YOU'RE MESSING WITH FLINKMAN.

GOOD JOB, MARSHALL.

[ DOOR BUZZES ]

Man: THIS IS TRANSPORT
TEAM ALPHA.

WE HAVE SECURED THE PRISONER,
AND WE ARE EN ROUTE.

E.T.A., 0600.

[ TIRES SCREECH ]

[ EXPLOSION ]

[ GUNFIRE ]

Man: PUT YOUR HEAD DOWN!
SHOOT!

[ TIRES SCREECHING ]

[ HORN BLARING ]

COME WITH ME!

COME ON!

QUICKLY! GO!

GET IN BACK!

THERE IS CHANGE OF CLOTHES!

Man on radio:
ALPHA, DO YOU COPY?

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

YOU GOT A MINUTE?

WE PICKED UP CHATTER
ON A MEET SCHEDULED

BETWEEN THE CRF
AND AN ADMINISTRATOR

AT THE SHILANOST
CHEMICAL LABS IN ESTONIA --

JAN VORICH.

SHILANOST WAS
A SOVIET-RUN FACILITY.

MARGINAL SECURITY AT BEST.

THEFT OF A LEVEL-4 TOXIN COULD
GO UNNOTICED THERE FOR YEARS.

IT'S PROBABLY
JUST A MEET,

BUT IF ANNA'S THERE,
THIS WOULD BE OUR BEST SHOT

AT GETTING HER BACK
IN OUR SIGHTS.

TAKE NADIA WITH YOU.
OBSERVATION ONLY.

IF VORICH HAS A SAMPLE
OF VX,

I WANT YOU TO FIND OUT
WHERE IT IS.

THIS IS A SURVEILLANCE,
NOT A BOXING MATCH.

CAN I TRUST YOU TO MAINTAIN
YOUR PROFESSIONALISM?

SHE BRINGS OUT THE WORST
IN ME, DAD,

BUT, YES, OF COURSE.

WHAT IS IT?

ANNA NEVER CHECKED
THE SAMPLE.

MARSHALL SAID HE COULDN'T
HAVE MADE A GOOD FAKE ANYWAY.

YOU WERE RIGHT, DAD.

I WAS STUBBORN.
I'M SORRY.

YOU TRUSTED YOUR INSTINCTS
TO ENSURE

THE SAFE RETURN
OF A FELLOW AGENT,

A MEMBER OF YOUR FAMILY,
AND YOU SUCCEEDED.

[ THUNDER CRASHING ]

TAKE THE MOTORCYCLE.

GET YOURSELF
TO CRF HEADQUARTERS.

WHAT ABOUT YOU?

FOLLOW PROTOCOL!

GO!

[ No accent ]
TANGO IS IN MOTION.

COPY THAT. GOOD WORK.

IN THE NEXT 24 HOURS,
SARK SHOULD LEAD US

TO CRF HEADQUARTERS.

WE'LL PUT A TACTICAL TEAM
ON STANDBY.

FOR NOW, WE WAIT.

WHO WANTS TO ORDER CHINESE?

I'M STARVING.

THAI?

INDIAN?

SYDNEY?

YOU AND YOUR SISTER --
ARE YOU GOING AFTER ANNA?

THIS IS HIGHLY INAPPROPRIATE.
EXCUSE ME.

COME ON, SYDNEY,
YOU KNOW OF ANNA'S BELIEFS.

YOU KNOW THE LENGTHS
SHE'LL GO TO SEE THEM REALIZED.

YOU WANT TO TALK
ABOUT BELIEFS?

THIS IS SOMETHING
YOU WANT TO DISCUSS?

FROM WHERE I'M STANDING,

IT WAS YOUR MADMAN OBSESSION
WITH RAMBALDI

THAT DRAGGED ME AND NADIA INTO
THIS ENDLESS PIT OF CONFUSION.

SO GIVEN THAT,
LET ME ASK YOU --

WHAT IS IT YOU BELIEVE?

I BELIEVE
THAT IF THE TWO OF YOU

GO OUT ON THIS MISSION,

AND ANNA ESPINOSA
HAS HER WAY,

THAT ONLY ONE OF YOU
WILL RETURN HOME ALIVE.

IT'S BEEN 24 HOURS.
SARK'S TRACKER IS STILL DARK.

I KNOW. I'M CHECKING
THE SATELLITE,

MAKING SURE
IT'S NOT OFFLINE.

YOU'RE SURE YOU DID
THE INSERTION PROPERLY?

COME ON. IT'S ME.

I CAN'T STRESS ENOUGH
HOW CRITICAL IT IS

THAT WE LOCATE
CRF HEADQUARTERS.

I KNOW. ALL RIGHT?
WHY'S EVERYBODY PICKING ON ME?

SERIOUSLY.

IT'S HARD WORK.

OKAY, I GOT IT.
IT'S HOT.

THEY ARE IN SOUTH AFRICA.
JOHANNESBURG.

658 KRONER STREET,
TO BE EXACT.

LET'S MOVE, PEOPLE.

SYDNEY AND NADIA
ARE IN ESTONIA

PURSUING ANNA.

DIXON IS LEADING A TEAM
TO JOHANNESBURG

TO RAID CRF HEADQUARTERS.

THIS SHOULD ALL BE
OVER SOON.

THANK YOU.

[ SIREN WAILING IN DISTANCE ]

MAINTAIN YOUR PERIMETER
COVER POINTS.

WE NEED TO LOCK
THIS BUILDING DOWN TIGHT.

NO ONE SLIPS OUT. WE'D RATHER
TAKE HOME DATA ON CRF,

NOT PRISONERS.

LET'S GO. GO, GO, GO.

I GOT SOMETHING.

GENTLEMEN.

WERE YOU EXPECTING
A BIGGER PARTY?

THIS ISN'T CRF HEADQUARTERS.

YOU'RE A GENIUS.

WHERE ARE WE?

NOWHERE IN PARTICULAR.

AND THAT'S THE TRUTH.

JUST A NICE PLACE
FOR A CHAT.

REALLY, MICHAEL,
DON'T LOOK SO SHOCKED.

YOU COULDN'T HAVE HAD
SUCH LOW EXPECTATIONS OF ME.

NOW, WITH REGARDS
TO YOUR PREVIOUS REQUEST,

I WILL HELP YOU LOCATE
CRF LEADERSHIP.

BUT AS ALWAYS, YOU MUST DO
SOMETHING FOR ME IN RETURN.

WHY THE CHARADE?

IF YOU WERE GOING TO COOPERATE,
WHY RUN AT ALL?

FOR THE BUBBLY, OF COURSE.

WE'RE EARLY.

WHO SAYS GIRLS CAN'T MAKE IT
ANYWHERE ON TIME?

GET COMFORTABLE.

[ ELEVATOR BELL DINGS ]

VORICH.

ALL RIGHT, ONE DOWN,
ONE TO GO.

WHERE ARE YOU, ANNA?
COME ON.

LET'S TAKE HER.

BAD IDEA.

I WAS HOPING WE COULD
SPEND A LITTLE MORE TIME --

VORICH HAD THE VX GAS
WITH HIM.
GO!

[ KNIFE PLUNGES ]
AAH!

WHY IS THE CRF
ASSEMBLING THIS BOMB?

WHAT DO THEY HAVE PLANNED?

IT'S NO USE.

YOU'RE TOO LATE.

TELL ME!
AAH!

[ WHISPERING ]

[ COCKS GUN ]

OH, MY GOD,
I THOUGHT YOU WERE...
ANNA.

[ GUNSHOT ]

NADIA.

OH, GOD. OH, GOD.
DON'T BE SCARED.

I'M RIGHT -- I'M RIGHT HERE.
IT'S OKAY. STAY WITH ME.

JUST BREATHE.
JUST STAY WITH ME.

JUST KEEP BREATHING.

NADIA? NADIA?

LOOK AT ME. LOOK AT ME.
LOOK ME IN THE EYE.

DON'T.

DON'T.

I'M RIGHT HERE. DON'T.
