Alias (2001–2006): Season 5, Episode 5 - Out of the Box - full transcript

PREVIOUSLY ON "ALIAS"...

BE AWFUL HARD TO HELP
THAT DAUGHTER OF YOURS

FROM INSIDE
A FEDERAL PENITENTIARY.

OF COURSE, IT DOESN'T HAVE
TO BE THAT WAY.

AFTER CAREFUL EXAMINATION
OF THE FACTS,

ARVIN SLOANE,
I HEREBY ORDER YOUR RELEASE.

(beeping)

(Jack) THE NURIDIUM WASN'T BEING
UTILIZED AS AN EXPLOSIVE.

WE BELIEVE IT WAS USED TO POWER
A CRYOGENIC CHAMBER.

HELLO?
HEY.

YOU IDENTIFY THE BODY?



THE BODY WAS STOLEN.

I'll forward you the details.

I'LL DIG AROUND
AND SEE WHAT I CAN FIND OUT.

(long, steady beep)

(thunder crashes)

(lightning strikes)

Kindt, we got a man down.
It's Rodriguez. Do you copy?

Do you copy? Do you copy?

(alarm blaring)

***

(exhales deeply)

HEY.

HI.

I WISH I COULD STILL FIT
INTO THOSE.



DID YOU SLEEP OKAY?
YEAH, I DID.

(turns down music)

YOU OKAY?

I'M JUST...

I'M TELLING YOU, THIS KID'S
GOING TO BE A BLACK BELT.

HERE, GIVE ME A HAND.
GET READY.

(laughs)

YOU, UH...

MUST BE SO EXCITED.

YEAH,
WHEN I'M NOT TERRIFIED.

YOU DON'T SEEM TERRIFIED.

I AM.

I HAVE NO IDEA
HOW TO BE A PARENT.

THE THOUGHT OF MY LIFE
CHANGING FOREVER...

DOING IT ON MY OWN--

IT'S A LITTLE OVERWHELMING.

YEAH.

I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN.

YOU KNOW, YOU CAN STAY HERE
AS LONG AS YOU WANT, RACHEL.

THERE'S NO HURRY.
I DON'T WANT TO IMPOSE.

WE'RE BOTH GOING
THROUGH TRANSITIONS.

WE MIGHT AS WELL
KEEP EACH OTHER COMPANY.

THANK YOU.

I'M GOING TO CHANGE.

HELP YOURSELF
TO ANYTHING IN THE FRIDGE...

OKAY.
IF THERE'S ANYTHING LEFT.

HEY, SYD?

YOU'RE GOING TO BE
A GREAT MOM.

THANKS.

YOU SEEM TO BE ENJOYING
YOUR FREEDOM.

I WAS HOPING TO OFFER YOU
MORE THAN PRISON FOOD.

I MUST CONFESS,

I'D GROWN RATHER FOND
OF THE SHEPHERD'S PIE.

I'M ASSUMING
YOU DIDN'T BRING ME HERE

SIMPLY FOR THE CUISINE.

LOOK, JACK,
DURING THE PAST FEW MONTHS,

I HAVE HAD TO RELY ON YOU
MORE THAN ANY FRIEND SHOULD,

WHICH IS WHAT
MAKES IT DIFFICULT

FOR ME TO ASK YOU THIS.

YOU NEED ANOTHER FAVOR?

I WANT TO RETURN TO A.P.O.

OF COURSE, MY POSITION
WOULD BE SUBORDINATE.

YOU WOULD BE THE DIRECTOR
OF THE TASK FORCE,

AND I WOULD HAVE
THE HIGHEST RESPECT FOR THAT.

IN RETURN,
YOU CAN ENGAGE MY CONNECTIONS

WHEREVER YOU THOUGHT
IT WOULD BE MOST EFFECTIVE.

AND YOU WOULD, IN TURN,
HAVE FULL C.I.A. RESOURCES

TO SEARCH FOR NADIA'S CURE.

EXACTLY.

I KNOW THIS PUTS YOU
IN AN AWKWARD POSITION--

I'VE ALREADY PUT IN THE REQUEST
FOR YOUR LIMITED REINSTATEMENT.

YOU HAVE?
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY.

YOUR GRATITUDE
MAY BE PREMATURE.

LANGLEY HASN'T DENIED
THE REQUEST,

BUT THEY HAVEN'T APPROVED IT
EITHER.

NORMALLY, THESE THINGS TAKE
A FEW DAYS,

BUT I'M GETTING INFORMAL REPORTS
THAT SOMETHING,

OR, RATHER, SOMEONE
IS STANDING IN THE WAY.

DO YOU KNOW WHO?

I'M HAPPY TO MAKE
MY CASE PERSONALLY.

I'M TRYING
TO ASCERTAIN THAT MYSELF.

(cell phone rings)

I APOLOGIZE.

I'M GOING TO HAVE
TO CUT THIS SHORT.

WHETHER YOU'RE SUCCESSFUL
OR NOT, JACK, THANK YOU.

(monitors beeping)

18 HOURS AGO,
AN ARMY STORAGE FACILITY

WAS HIT OUTSIDE OF FRANKFURT.

THE DORNIER STOCKPILE?

THE INTRUDER CROSSED
TWO MINEFIELDS,

DEACTIVATED
A 30,000-VOLT ELECTRIC FENCE

AND TOOK DOWN
HALF A DOZEN ARMY RANGERS

BY NONLETHAL MEANS.

DO WE HAVE
ANY POTENTIAL SUSPECTS?

AGENT GRACE IS ON THE PHONE
TO THE BASE IN GERMANY NOW

TRYING TO GET UPLINKS
OF THEIR SURVEILLANCE IMAGERY.

THIS LONE INDIVIDUAL

WALKED RIGHT PAST
A STOCKPILE OF HEAVY WEAPONS

OPTING INSTEAD FOR
A FEW HUNDRED cc's

FOR SOMETHING CALLED
ATROPINE ZX.

ZX IS A HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL
MEDICAL STIMULANT.

ITS PRIMARY USE IS FOR
BATTLEFIELD RESUSCITATION

OF GRAVELY INJURED SOLDIERS.

THE INFILTRATION BEARS
STRIKING SIMILARITIES

TO THE D.S.R. THEFT
A MONTH AGO.

ARE YOU SUGGESTING
THIS IS SOMEHOW CONNECTED

WITH THE CONTAINER
WE RECOVERED IN NORTH KOREA?

IT COULD BE THE SECONDARY PHASE
OF THE SAME OPERATION.

BY ALL APPEARANCES,
THE MAN INSIDE THE CONTAINER

WAS IN SOME SORT OF
NEXT-GEN CRYOGENIC DEEP FREEZE.

AND THE STOLEN ZX COULD BE
USED TO WAKE UP THE BODY?

IT'S POSSIBLE, YES.

YES, GUDER, I PROMISE.

EIGHT CASES OF JERKY--
HALF BEEF, HALF TURKEY.

IT'S ON THE WAY. DANKE.

APPARENTLY YOU CAN'T GET
GOOD BEEF JERKY IN GERMANY.

REALLY?
I ALWAYS THOUGHT OF GERMANY

AS THE HOME
OF PROCESSED MEATS.

YOU KNOW, 'CAUSE ALL
THE SAUSAGES THAT THEY...

AND THERE'S LIVERWURST,
BRATWURST, FLEISCHWURST--

HERE IT COMES.

LET'S TAKE A LOOK
AT OUR BAD BOY.

PUT IT ON-SCREEN.

MAKE THAT A BAD GIRL.

RENEE RIENNE, ALSO KNOWN
AS LE CORBEAU.

IN '02, SHE ATTACKED ONE OF
OUR LISTENING POSTS IN TURKEY,

MADE HER NUMBER EIGHT ON
THE C.I.A.'s MOST WANTED LIST.

YOU DON'T KNOW SHE'S THE ONE
WHO TOOK THE BODY.

NO, BUT IT'S BEYOND REASON
THAT THIS IS A COINCIDENCE.

IF SHE TOOK THE BODY,
SHE HAD A REASON.

I'LL TALK TO HER.
YOU EXCHANGE INFORMATION
WITH HER TWICE A WEEK.

IF SHE HASN'T TOLD YOU
BY NOW...

NOT OVER THE PHONE.
I'LL GO IN PERSON.

SYDNEY, THIS WOMAN
IS AN ASSASSIN.

VAUGHN TRUSTED HER.

THEY WORKED TOGETHER
FOR SEVEN YEARS.

BESIDES, IF SHE DID TAKE
THE BODY AND HASN'T TOLD ME,

IT'S BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T
TRUST ME, EITHER.

IF WE MAKE A MOVE ON HER,
THAT JUST PROVES SHE'S RIGHT.

I'M HARDLY CONCERNED
WITH HER FEELINGS.

NO, BUT I AM CONCERNED ABOUT
BURNING HER AS AN ALLY.

WE KNOW THE BODY WAS
IN DEAN'S POSSESSION.

FINDING OUT WHY MAY TELL US
MORE ABOUT PROPHET FIVE,

WHAT THEIR ULTIMATE AGENDA IS.

GO SEE HER,

BUT YOU'RE NOT GOING ALONE.

(Jack)
I THINK YOU GOT HIM.

MY MOTHER ALWAYS SAID,

IF SOMEBODY WAS WORTH
SHOOTING ONCE,

THEN THEY'RE WORTH
SHOOTING TWICE.

I'M SORRY I NEVER MET HER.

SHE SOUNDS LIKE
MY KIND OF WOMAN.

I THINK THE TWO OF YOU
WOULD HAVE GOTTEN ALONG.

SYDNEY'S GOING TO MARSEILLES
TO MEET WITH A CONTACT.

WHEELS UP
WITHIN THE HOUR.

I'D LIKE YOU
TO ACCOMPANY HER.

I'M ON ESCORT DUTY.

SYDNEY'S CONTACT
IS RENEE RIENNE.

REALLY?

MISS RIENNE HAS BEEN HELPING
SYDNEY WITH HER INVESTIGATION

INTO THE PROPHET FIVE
CONSPIRACY,

THOUGH THAT FACT
IS OFF THE BOOKS.

GOT IT.

MISS RIENNE USED TO WORK
WITH MICHAEL VAUGHN.

BASED ON THAT, MY DAUGHTER
HAS INHERENT TRUST IN HER.

I DO NOT SHARE HER TRUST.

I SEE.

DON'T WORRY.

I'LL MAKE SURE SHE'S SAFE.

(Tom) HOPE YOU GOT
THE ADDRESS RIGHT.

MICRO SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS,

MOTION DETECTORS
ON THE WINDOWS.

AND THIS IS
DEFINITELY HER PLACE.

I'LL COVER THE STAIRS,

YOU SLIP AROUND FRONT
TO THE ELEVATOR.

PUT THAT AWAY.
YOU WON'T NEED IT.

SHE'S ALREADY KILLED
THREE C.I.A. AGENTS.

WE'RE NOT GOING TO BE
FOUR AND FIVE.

WHEN MY FATHER BRIEFED YOU,

HE TOLD YOU
WE'D BEEN WORKING TOGETHER.
YEAH.

HE ALSO SAID IF I SUSPECTED
A THREAT TO YOUR SAFETY,

I HAVE ORDERS TO KILL HER.
MY FATHER IS OVERPROTECTIVE.

(cell phone rings)

(ring)

(Renee) Oui?

IT'S ME.
WE NEED TO TALK.

It's not a good time.
IT CAN'T WAIT.

I'M OUT FRONT.
I KNOW.

WE AREN'T HERE
TO THREATEN YOU, RENEE.

WE HAD AN AGREEMENT.
I KNOW YOU TOOK THE BODY.

WHATEVER IT IS,
YOU CAN TELL ME.

NO, I CAN'T.
THIS IS DIFFERENT.

I NEED TO DO THIS MYSELF.

WELL, THAT'S NOT AN OPTION.

DOES HE KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE UP TO?

NO, HE'S NOT DANGEROUS.

(knife wielding)

(gasping)

(speaking French)

HE WON'T HURT ME,
HE WON'T HURT ME!

LET HER GO!
HE WON'T HURT ME!

DO YOU HAVE THE SHOT?
JUST SAY WHEN.

NO, PLEASE,
HE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND.
(speaks French)

(knife clatters)

DID I HEAR HER RIGHT?

HE'S HER FATHER.

***

(speaking in French)

WAS IT DESANTIS?

DESANTIS.

I DO NOT... REMEMBER.

IS DESANTIS PART
OF PROPHET FIVE?

PROPHET FIVE?

WHAT DO YOU KNOW
ABOUT THEM?

NO, NO, I AM FINE.

YOU'RE NOT FINE.
YOUR EAR IS BLEEDING.

HERE, GET HIM DOWN.
PAPA?

GET HIM DOWN.

HIS PULSE IS
ALL OVER THE PLACE.

WE NEED SOMETHING
TO SEDATE HIM

TO GET HIS HEART RATE
UNDER CONTROL.
I'LL GET SOME DIAZEPAM.

KEEP HIS LEGS STEADY.
(Tom) CALM DOWN.

(hyperventilating)

(grunting)

(breathing heavily)

HIS HEARTBEAT'S WEAK,
BUT IT'S STABLE.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT
THAT DEVICE? WHY WAS HE IN IT?

I DON'T KNOW.

I JUST HAD TO GET HIM
OUT OF THERE.

(siren wailing in distance)

(indistinct chattering)

HOW'S YOUR DAUGHTER?

NADIA, RIGHT?

THAT'S SUCH A PRETTY NAME.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

JUST CHECKING UP
ON OUR INVESTMENT.

I THOUGHT THIS MIGHT BE
A GOOD PLACE TO FIND YOU.

DON'T YOU EVER CONTACT ME
IN PUBLIC AGAIN.

AND TELL WHOEVER
YOU ANSWER TO

THAT I'M PROCEEDING
AS INSTRUCTED.

TELL HIM YOURSELF.

HELLO, ARVIN.

HELLO, GORDON.

SO YOU'RE
MY MYSTERIOUS BENEFACTOR.

I'M ONE OF THEM.

ARE YOU FAMILIAR
WITH SENATOR LEWIS?

SHE'S THE CHAIRMAN OF
THE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE.

SHE'S THE REASON
YOUR SECURITY CLEARANCE

HASN'T BEEN REINSTATED.

SHE DOESN'T SEEM TO CARE
VERY MUCH FOR YOU.

IT MAY HAVE SOMETHING TO DO
WITH THE FACT

THAT SHE'S ACTUALLY
A DECENT HUMAN BEING.

IF SHE'S THE ONE
STANDING IN MY WAY,

MY CHANCES OF RETURNING
TO A.P.O. ARE SLIM AT BEST.

AND I NEED YOU AT A.P.O.

YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE
TO PERSUADE SENATOR LEWIS

TO SEE THINGS YOUR WAY.

LUCKILY, THAT'S WHAT
YOU DO BEST.

(Tom) LOOK, I GOTTA BE HONEST
WITH YOU.

I'VE HAD
BASIC FIELD MEDICAL TRAINING.

IF THE GUY WERE SHOT,
I COULD HANDLE THAT,

BUT THIS IS BEYOND ME.

IS HE STABLE?
That's kind of hard
to define.

HE WAS BLEEDING OUT OF HIS EYES
AND HIS EARS. HE'S UNCONSCIOUS.

His breathing's shallow
but regular.

WELL, IF WE KNEW WHY
HE WAS IN THE CONTAINER,

WE MIGHT HAVE A BETTER IDEA
OF WHAT WAS WRONG WITH HIM.

I took a look
inside the box.

IT'S LINED WITH I.V.s APPARENTLY
FEEDING HIM NUTRIENTS.

There's an on-board hard drive
tracking his vitals.

Other than that, a bunch of
tech stuff I can't identify.

I STILL HAVE CONTACTS WITHIN
THE D.S.R. I CAN REACH OUT.

MAYBE THEY ANALYZED
THE CONTAINER

BEFORE IT WAS STOLEN.
RENEE MENTIONED A NAME--
A DR. ALDO DESANTIS.

Apparently he put her father
in the box 20 years ago.

I KNOW THAT NAME.

DEAN HAD ME ARRANGE THE TRANSFER
OF SOME OF HIS FILES.

THEY WERE ARCHIVED AT
THE UNIVERSITY OF MILAN,

BUT ABOUT A YEAR AGO,
DEAN HAD ME MOVE THEM

TO A PRIVATE FACILITY
IN SAN FRANCISCO.

AGENT GRACE,

tell Renee we'll coordinate
a mission

TO OBTAIN THE DESANTIS FILES.

PERHAPS THEY'LL SHED SOME LIGHT
ON HER FATHER'S CONDITION.

In the meantime,
contact Dr. Etienne Laurent.

HE'S 20 MINUTES
OUTSIDE MARSEILLES.

HE CAN CHECK RENEE'S FATHER
INTO A FACILITY

under an assumed name
and run the full examination.

COPY THAT. I'LL CONTACT YOU
WHEN I GET THERE.

I CAN TAKE CARE OF HIM.

NO, YOU CAN'T. IF MY FATHER
VOUCHES FOR THIS DOCTOR,

YOUR FATHER WILL BE SAFE.

LOOK, IF WE WERE GOING
TO DOUBLE-CROSS YOU,

WE WOULD HAVE DONE IT
ALREADY.

JUST LET US HELP YOU.

YOU HAVE MY WORD.

OKAY.

I'LL PULL A VAN AROUND FRONT.

(electronic buzzing, clanking)

WHAT'S GOING ON?

I DON'T KNOW.

(rattling)

(cell phone beeping)

(sighs)

(beeping)

(Men shouting in French)

(rings)

ALLô?

(Man speaking French)

(hangs up telephone)

THEY WANT MY FATHER.

(door opens)

(Tom) WE'RE UNDER SIEGE!

THEY WANT RENEE'S FATHER.
WHO ARE THEY?
I WISH I KNEW.

IT'S THE D.G.S.E.

INTELLIGENCE?
NO, IT'S NOT FRENCH MILITARY.

THEY'RE ARMED TOO WELL.
THAT'S WHY
I DIDN'T TELL YOU.

WHAT, YOU THINK
WE BROUGHT 'EM HERE?

HOW ELSE WOULD THEY KNOW?

IT'S NO GOOD.
THEY'RE USING A JAMMING DEVICE.

WE NEED WEAPONS.
BACK THERE.

THERE IS A CLOSET.

I HAVE AN ARMY RADIO.

IF YOU CAN FIND
A CLEAR FREQUENCY,

CALL FOR HELP.

INSIDE THOSE CASES,

THERE ARE MONITORS FOR
THE SECURITY CAMERAS.

SO WHAT ARE WE UP AGAINST?

WELL, THERE ARE 12 OF THEM
IT LOOKS LIKE, AT LEAST.

THEY'RE PLANNING SOMETHING.
WHAT IS IT?

WHAT'S THAT?

GAS. THEY WANT TO KNOCK US OUT
BEFORE THEY ATTACK US.

RIGHT THERE, THEY'RE PUMPING IT
INTO THE VENT.

GET IN THE BEDROOM.

SEAL YOURSELF IN.
I'LL TAKE OUT THE TRUCK.

NO, NO, NO, I'LL GO.
YOU WATCH YOUR FATHER.

COME ON.

MARSHALL,
DIXON'S READY FOR US.

YEAH, I'M READY.

IT'S GOTTA BE HERE SOMEWHERE.
WHERE IS IT?

YOU KNOW WHAT
AN AUDIO COUPLER IS?

YOU KNOW, THE PIECE THAT SLIDES
OVER THE BASE

OF A TELEPHONE HEADSET?
YEAH, LIKE FROM "WAR GAMES."

YOU KNOW "WAR GAMES"?

YEAH, IT'S
MY SECOND-FAVORITE MOVIE.

REALLY? MINE TOO.

NOW DON'T TELL ANYONE,
BUT IT'S WHAT INSPIRED ME

TO HACK INTO THE PENTAGON
FOR THE FIRST TIME.

HOW'D YOU GET IN?

I, UH, WENT IN THROUGH
THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM.

YEAH, THERE WAS
A SIDE-WIRE CUTOUT

FOR AIR CONDITIONING
REPAIRS,

SO I GOT THE WOMAN FROM
THE REPAIR COMPANY ON THE PHONE

AND CONVINCED HER THAT
I WAS INSIDE THE BUILDING

AND THEN SWEET-TALKED HER
INTO GIVING ME THE PASSWORD.

I THINK HER NAME WAS INA.

I WENT STRAIGHT IN
THROUGH THE SEWER CONTROLS.

REALLY? THAT'S--
THAT'S PRETTY SMART...

AND A LOT... EASIER.

SO ARE WE HACKING INTO
THE STORAGE FACILITY'S NETWORK?

YEAH, TO FIND OUT WHERE
THE DESANTIS FILES ARE STORED.

WELL, IF WE'RE
GOING IN VIA R.F.,

THEN THE NETWORK
MUST BE TERMINAL.

NO, CLOSED LOOP. OH!

FOUND IT.

(cable car bell
dings in distance)

(Marshall) I HOPE NONE OF YOU
SUFFER FROM ARACHNOPHOBIA,

'CAUSE THIS LITTLE
6-LEGGED FREAK

IS NOT PRETTY,
BUT SHE GETS THE JOB DONE.

I CALL HER CHARLOTTE,
FOR OBVIOUS REASONS.

OH, CHECK THIS OUT.

THERE IS A TOMOGRAPHIC CAMERA
RIGHT ON THE BOTTOM THERE.

IT BASICALLY ACTS LIKE AN X-RAY
OR A C.A.T. SCAN.

IT TAKES IMAGES
LAYER BY LAYER.

SEE? LOOK AT THAT.

THIS WILL ALLOW US TO TAKE
IMAGES OF THE DESANTIS FILES...

WITHOUT EVER HAVING
TO REMOVE THEM

FROM THEIR STORAGE CONTAINER.
RIGHT.

I ASSUME YOUR VAULTS
ARE CLIMATE-CONTROLLED.
OF COURSE.

NOW IF YOUR PURCHASE
OUR PREMIUM PACKAGE,

YOUR ITEM WILL BE STORED

IN THE MOST SECURE WING
OF OUR FACILITY.

YES, I'VE HEARD THAT BEFORE.

LET ME EXPLAIN SOMETHING.

THIS PARTICULAR PIECE
IS FROM THE YONGLE PERIOD--

VERY DELICATE.

I DON'T WANT
THE MOST SECURE WING.

I WANT THE WING YOU RESERVE

FOR THE PEOPLE
WHO WILL COME LOOKING FOR YOU

IF ANYTHING HAPPENS
TO THEIR STUFF.

RIGHT THIS WAY.

OH, MY CELL DIED.

CALL MY WIFE, WOULD YOU?

LET HER KNOW
WE'RE RUNNING LATE.

WOULD YOU MIND?

OF COURSE NOT.
BE MY GUEST.

THANK YOU.

(beeps)

HI, MEREDITH.

We're running
a little bit behind.

NICE. PHONE LINK IS GOOD.

Accessing the network.

(beeps)

UH, YOU KNOW WHAT?

JUST STAY ON THE PHONE
ONE MORE MINUTE.

YEAH, I'LL HAVE HIM HOME
BY DINNER.

(beep, door buzzes)

(beeps)

GOT IT.

AS YOU CAN SEE, TEMPERATURE
AND HUMIDITY-CONTROLLED.

WE EVEN HAVE
BACKUP GENERATORS

IN CASE OF
PROLONGED BLACKOUT.

THIS IS FINE.

I'M GLAD YOU'RE PLEASED.

NOW IF YOU'LL JUST
FOLLOW ME,

WE CAN FINISH THE REST
OF OUR PAPERWORK.

(beeping)

COME ON, CHARLOTTE.
YOU GO, GIRL.

COME ON, CHARLOTTE.
DON'T LET ME DOWN.

HOW'S IT COMING?

WELL,
ACCORDING TO THEIR NETWORK,

THE DESANTIS FILES ARE
INSIDE CABINET 2187,

SO WE'LL SOON SEE
FOR OURSELVES.

COME ON, CHARLOTTE.
WORK SOME MAGIC.

ALL RIGHT, IMAGING THROUGH
THE FIRST LAYER OF METAL.

"DESANTIS." WE GOT 'EM.

GOOD.

LET'S SCAN THE REST
OF THOSE DOCUMENTS

AND RELAY THEM TO A.P.O.

OKAY.

ANY LUCK?

LOW-BAND FREQUENCIES
ARE COMPLETELY BLOCKED.

I FOUND THIS MIDRANGE.

CHATTER OF SOME KIND, BUT IT'S
TOO NOISY TO TRANSMIT OVER.

HE'S GOT A FEVER.

WHY DO THEY WANT HIM,
RENEE?

TELL ME THE TRUTH.

I WAS VERY SICK AS A CHILD.

THE MEDICINE I WAS TAKING--
IT WAS EXPENSIVE.

MY FATHER ANSWERED AN AD
IN THE NEWSPAPER FOR A JOB.

LATER THAT WEEK,

HE CAME HOME WITH MORE MONEY
THAN I HAD EVER SEEN.

I COULD TELL HE WAS SCARED.

HE PACKED WHAT HE COULD,
AND WE LEFT.

HE DIDN'T WANT TO SCARE ME,

BUT I KNEW
HE WAS RUNNING FROM SOMEONE.

ONE DAY IN GENEVA,
THEY FOUND US.

(groaning)

I LATER FOUND OUT

THAT THE MAN I SAW
TAKE MY FATHER WAS DESANTIS.

THEY WERE HIS CLINICAL TRIALS

MY FATHER HAD BEEN PAID FOR.

I ASSUMED
THEY KILLED HIM THAT NIGHT.

THIS IS WHY YOU BEGAN
PURSUING PROPHET FIVE.

TO MAKE THEM PAY.

(Men speaking French)

(walkie-talkie static)

(speaking French)

(grunting)

(rapid beeping)

(speaking French)

(grunting)

(screaming)

(Renee) WHAT CAN YOU SEE?

NOTHING.
I DON'T KNOW IF HE MADE IT.

(glass shatters)

RENEE!
PAPA?

(pounding on door)

(Tom) IT'S ME! LET ME IN.

NICE JOB.

I THINK I JUST PISSED 'EM OFF.

WE NEED TO GET READY.

THEY'LL BE COMING IN SOON.

SYDNEY, YOU STAY HERE
WITH HER FATHER.

IF I CAN TAKE
ENOUGH OF THEM OUT,

MAYBE THEY'LL DECIDE
WE'RE NOT WORTH IT.

(classical piano instrumental
playing)

(skating instructor)
THAT'S GREAT.

KEEP YOUR BACK UP.

OVER YOUR TOE.
STAY OVER YOUR TOE.

GOOD!

SHE'S QUITE TALENTED.

THANK YOU.

YOU MUST BE VERY PROUD.

YOU HAVE NO IDEA.

SENATOR LEWIS.

WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU,
MR. SLOANE?

WELL, ACTUALLY, I WAS HOPING
FOR A MINUTE OF YOUR TIME.

IF YOU'VE COME HERE TO LOBBY

FOR YOUR SECURITY CLEARANCE
TO BE APPROVED,

I SUGGEST YOU SAVE YOURSELF
THE TROUBLE.

YEAH, I UNDERSTAND
YOUR RELUCTANCE,

BUT I'M ASKING YOU
TO RECONSIDER YOUR POSITION.

WITH MY KNOWLEDGE
AND MY RESOURCES,

I CAN BE A VALUABLE ASSET
TO THIS COUNTRY.

TOUCHING.

BUT SOMEHOW I DOUBT THAT YOU'RE
MOTIVATED BY MERE PATRIOTISM.

YOU'RE RIGHT,
I HAVE AN AGENDA--

MY DAUGHTER NADIA.

SHE'S VERY SICK.

I KNOW.

I HOPE TO USE A.P.O. RESOURCES
TO FIND A CURE

FOR HER CONDITION.

IN EXCHANGE,
I WILL HAPPILY DO

WHATEVER THE GOVERNMENT
REQUIRES OF ME.

I'M SORRY
ABOUT YOUR DAUGHTER,

BUT I CAN'T IN GOOD CONSCIENCE
PUT YOU BACK IN THAT OFFICE.

IF IT WERE UP TO ME,
YOU'D STILL BE IN PRISON.

YOU'LL HAVE TO FIND ANOTHER WAY
TO HELP YOUR DAUGHTER.

I'M NOT REINSTATING
YOUR CLEARANCE.

YOUR DAUGHTER'S VERY LOVELY.

I'M SURE YOU'RE PROUD OF HER.

YOU'LL RECOGNIZE THE INSIDE
OF YOUR OWN HOUSE.

YOU'LL NOTICE
NONE OF THOSE PICTURES

WERE TAKEN
WITH A TELEPHOTO LENS.

THE PHOTOGRAPHER WAS
STANDING RIGHT NEXT TO HER.

IT MAKES YOU WONDER ABOUT
HER SECURITY DETAIL, DOESN'T IT?

IT MAKES YOU WONDER

IF YOU CAN EVER
KEEP HER SAFE AT ALL.

MOM, DID YOU SEE THAT?

I DID, HONEY.

I WAS JUST TELLING YOUR MOTHER
HOW TALENTED YOU ARE.

YOU KNOW,
YOU SKATE LIKE AN ANGEL.

THANK YOU.

YOU'RE WELCOME.

ENJOY THE REST OF YOUR DAY,
SENATOR.

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE
FOR YOUR SUPPORT.

(Renee) THEY'RE GONE.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN,
THEY'RE GONE?

THEY'RE NOT IN THE STREET.

THAT'S 'CAUSE
THEY'RE PROBABLY ON THE ROOF.

YOU'RE HURT.

IT'S NOTHING.

I FOUND THIS DEVICE.
THEY ALL HAVE THEM.

IT'S A TRACKER.

(beeping)

THEY'RE PROBABLY FOLLOWING
A SIGNAL.
FROM WHAT?

(beeping)

IT'S AN EMERGENCY BEACON.

YOU MUST HAVE ACTIVATED IT
WHEN YOU OPENED THE CONTAINER.

NO, I WOULD HAVE NOTICED.

THEIR SIGNAL'S STILL ACTIVE.

IT'S NOT JAMMING
THE FREQUENCY THIS TRANSMITS ON.

MAYBE I COULD PIGGYBACK
THIS SIGNAL,

GET OUT A CALL FOR HELP.

JACK...

JACK, I'VE JUST RECEIVED
HARD COPIES

OF ALL DATA
THE D.S.R. OBTAINED

FROM THE CRYO-CONTAINER
BEFORE IT WAS STOLEN.

MARSHALL AND RACHEL ARE
IN THE BRIEFING ROOM

REVIEWING THE FILES YOU
RECOVERED FROM SAN FRANCISCO.

I'LL CROSS-INDEX THE DATA.

IS THERE SOMETHING ELSE,
MARCUS?

I JUST GOT OFF THE PHONE

WITH THE OFFICE
OF SENATOR DIANNE LEWIS,

THE CHAIRPERSON OF
THE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE.

YES, I KNOW WHO SHE IS.

HER OFFICE WAS FOLLOWING UP
ON A REQUEST

TO REINSTATE ARVIN SLOANE'S
SECURITY CLEARANCE

SO HE COULD RETURN TO DUTY
WITHIN A.P.O.

I TOLD THEM I DIDN'T KNOW
ANYTHING ABOUT IT.

THE REQUEST TO REINSTATE
SLOANE'S CLEARANCE CAME FROM ME.

I ASSUME IT WAS GRANTED.

HE'S BEEN GIVEN
FULL ACCESS,

GOLD LEVEL AND BEYOND.

ARE YOU CERTAIN THIS IS
THE RIGHT COURSE OF ACTION?

I BELIEVE ARVIN SLOANE
NOW HAS A SINGLE PURPOSE--

TO SAVE THE LIFE
OF HIS DAUGHTER.

IF IT IS WITHIN MY POWER
TO HELP HIM WITH THAT ENDEAVOR,

I WILL DO SO, GLADLY.

OF COURSE.

I SUPPOSE HAVING HIM HERE
AT A.P.O. WILL ALLOW US

TO KEEP A CLOSE EYE
ON HIS ACTIVITIES.

YES, THAT THOUGHT CROSSED
MY MIND AS WELL.

OH, I GOT IT. HERE IT IS.

UH, ACTUALLY THIS IS "GARCEAU"
WITH AN "A."

YEAH, THIS HERE, LOOK--
"GOURSAUD."

OH, "GOURSAUD," EXCELLENT.

OH, HERE. LOOKS LIKE
SOME KIND OF CHEMICAL STUDY,

BUT IT'S ALL ENCODED.

AND THEN THE BLOOD WORK,
BRAIN SCANS AND X-RAYS

ARE ALL NORMAL.

THIS IS ALSO--YES--
20 YEARS OLD.

SO ALL THIS REALLY TELL US
IS THAT MR. GOURSAUD

WAS HEALTHY AT THE TIME
HE WAS ABDUCTED.
WHAT DO WE GOT?

WELL,
I'LL TELL YOU ONE THING.

THIS GUY'S
INTO SOME FREAKY STUFF HERE--

MANIPULATION
OF NEURAL PATHWAYS,

GENETIC MANIPULATIONS.
ANYTHING ON GOURSAUD?

NOTHING THAT HELPS.

THE D.S.R. SENT OVER EVERYTHING
THEY HAD ON THE CONTAINER.

IT LOOKS LIKE
WHILE GOURSAUD WAS INSIDE,

HIS BRAIN FUNCTIONS
WERE SEVERELY LIMITED.

THE CONTAINER WAS
ALSO ADMINISTERING DOSES

OF ANTIPROLIFERATIVES AND...
CALICO-NEURIN INHIBITORS.

CALCINEURININHIBITORS,
ACTUALLY,

WITH A "S..." SOUND.

IT'S AN IMMUNOSUPPRESSIVE DRUG,
BASICALLY--

PREVENTS THE IMMUNE SYSTEM
FROM ATTACKING ITSELF,

KIND OF LIKE, YOU KNOW,
WHEN A TRANSPLANT PATIENT

REJECTS A NEW ORGAN.

BUT HE HASN'T HAD
ANY TRANSPLANTS.

WAIT A MINUTE. IS THAT
GOURSAUD'S E.E.G. READING?

I DON'T GET THIS.

(Jack) BRAIN SCANS?

YEAH, THAT ONE'S FROM DESANTIS.
THAT ONE'S FROM THE D.S.R.

HOW OLD ARE THESE READINGS?

TAKEN THREE WEEKS AGO.
THEY DON'T MATCH.

A BY-PRODUCT OF
THE AGING PROCESS?

NOT GRAY MATTER.
THE VOLUME IS SET BY AGE 4.
AGE 4.

YOU'RE SUGGESTING THE MAN
WHO CAME OUT OF THAT CONTAINER

IS NOT LUC GOURSAUD?

THAT'S RIGHT.

THEN WHO IS HE?

SOMEBODY WHO--
WHO'S NOT... LUC GOURSAUD.

I JUST CALLED
THE CLINIC IN FRANCE.

SYDNEY AND TOM
NEVER SHOWED UP.

I TRIED HER CELL.
NO ANSWER.

THE PEOPLE WHO TOOK ME--

THEY WANT ME BACK.

GIVE ME TO THEM,

AND YOU ALL WALK OUT
OF HERE.

THAT'S NOT AN OPTION.

20 YEARS AGO,
I LET THEM CAPTURE ME

TO KEEP RENEE SAFE.

NOTHING HAS CHANGED.

I AM HER FATHER.

IT IS MY JOB TO PROTECT HER.

BUT GIVING YOURSELF TO THEM
WON'T PROTECT RENEE.

IT WILL DESTROY HER
IF YOU'RE KILLED.

THEY WILL NOT KILL ME.

YOU CAN'T KNOW THAT.

ONCE THEY TRACKED
THE BEACON UP HERE,

THEY COULD HAVE BLOWN US
TO BITS,

BUT THEY DID NOT.

THEY WANT ME ALIVE,

LIVING.

WHAT BEACON?

YOU JUST SAID
THEY TRACKED A BEACON.

WHAT BEACON?

PUT THE RADIO DOWN.

PAPA...
THIS WOMAN WAS TRYING
TO KILL ME.

HE'S LYING. HE'S THE REASON
WE'RE BEING ATTACKED.

LET HER GO.

DON'T!

HE SAID THEY TRACKED A BEACON.

HE SENT A SIGNAL.
HE LED THEM HERE.

DON'T LISTEN TO HER.
SHE'S ONLY TRYING TO CONFUSE US.

THIS ISN'T AN ABDUCTION.
IT'S A RESCUE.

HOW DO YOU KNOW
ABOUT THE BEACON?

I'M YOUR FATHER, REMEMBER?
I PROTECTED YOU.

THAT'S RIGHT.
YOUR FATHER PROTECTED YOU.

THAT NIGHT,
WHEN DESANTIS KIDNAPPED HIM,

YOU SAID HE LEFT YOU
SOMEWHERE SAFE.

ASK HIM WHERE HE HID YOU.

THAT IS SILLY.
ASK HIM RENEE, ASK HIM.

TELL ME.

THAT WAS 20 YEARS AGO,
ANGEL.

BUT FOR YOU,
IT WAS ONLY YESTERDAY.

WHO ARE YOU?

A.P.O. TRACKED THE HELICOPTER
TO A SMALL AIRPORT.

SHORTLY AFTER IT LANDED,

AN EXECUTIVE JET TOOK OFF,
BOUND FOR NORTH KOREA.

AND THAT MAN?

WE STILL DON'T KNOW.

WE'RE WORKING ON IT.

WE'VE SEEN THINGS LIKE THIS
BEFORE, BELIEVE IT OR NOT.

DOUBLING TECHNOLOGY.

BUT IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO SAY.

MY TEAM IS STILL REVIEWING
DESANTIS' PAPERS.

HOPEFULLY, THEY'LL GIVE US
SOME INSIGHT INTO PROPHET FIVE.

I'LL CONTACT YOU
AS SOON AS WE KNOW ANYTHING.

I THOUGHT I HAD HIM BACK.

I KNOW.

MICHAEL ALWAYS TOLD ME
I COULD COME TO YOU.

I DIDN'T TRUST HIM.

I WAS WRONG.

THANK YOU.

YEAH.

GORDON DEAN.

HOW ARE YOU FEELING,
DR. DESANTIS?

COULDN'T BE BETTER.
THANK YOU.

AND I'M TOLD
THERE SHOULDN'T BE

ANY LINGERING SIDE EFFECTS
FROM THE PROCEDURE.

23 YEARS.

THE COHESION PROBLEM WAS SOLVED
ONCE WE UNDERSTOOD

HOW TO RE-SEQUENCE
THE INFORMATION.

THE GIRL'S ALIVE.

SHE CALLS HERSELF
RENEE RIENNE.

WORKS WITH THE C.I.A.

WELL, THEN KEEPING AN EYE ON HER
WON'T BE A PROBLEM.
