"My name is Sydney Bristow." "Seven years ago, I was recruited by a secret branch of the CIA called SD-6." "I was sworn to secrecy, but I couldn't keep it from my fiancé, and when the head of SD-6 found out, he had him killed." "That's when I learned the truth." "SD-6 is not part of the CIA." "I'd been working for the very people" "I thought I was fighting against." "So I went to the only place that could help me take them down." "Now I'm a double agent for the CIA, where my handler is a man named Michael Vaughn." "Only one other person knows the truth about what I do." "Another double agent inside SD-6." "Someone I hardly know." "My father." "Didn't Syd say she went to Seattle?" "Yeah." "So?" "Why is there a return ticket from Italy in her pocket?" "I came here to pass along an order from Devlin." "You're going to see a counselor for trauma evaluation." "Khasinau has converted $250 million worth of assets into cash." "We need to know what he's spending that money on." "You're leaving for Vienna tonight." "Noah?" "Oh, my God." "Do me a favor, Syd." "Tread carefully here." "Until he's debriefed, I wouldn't get too friendly." "It's ancient history." "It was five years ago." "You were the last person that I ever wanted to see again." "Ever." "And you were the only person that I ever wanted to see again." "[Gasps]" "They found us." "We got to go." "[Men speaking Russian]" " Skyhook, this is White Rabbit." " Copy, White Rabbit." "Change of plan." "Tell me you can get us out 30 minutes early." "Affirmative." "[Helicopter blades whirring]" "Skyhook, we are being pursued!" "We're not gonna make it to the meeting point!" "We've locked onto your signal." "Prepare for extraction." "Skyhook, wilco." "Have you in sight." "Turning final approach from the south." "Syd, we got a hostile, 6:00." "Reverse course 1 - 8-0 degrees for recovery in 1 0..." "Noah, hold on." "9..." " Drive for me." " 8... 7..." "[Machine-gun fire] 6... 5... 4..." "I'm pulling the cord." "3... 2... 1." "Hold on!" "The CIA has a new lead on Khasinau." "Apparently, K-Directorate is looking for revenge, too." "We received intel last night." "They've hired a fairly prestigious freelance assassin to find Khasinau and dismember him." ""The Snowman" is his code name." "The Snowman." "He's been on the CIA's most-wanted list for 12 years, presumed dead since '97, but it seems we're not so lucky." "I'm looking for contacts." "I'm thinking that maybe we can find Khasinau by following The Snowman." "I just want to make sure that you get to Khasinau first." "I know how important this is to you." "Thank you." "Hey, so, the operation went all right in Arkhangelsk with Noah?" "Yeah." "Good." "Are you sure she's coming back tonight?" "That's what she said." "She's at the airport in San Francisco waiting for a plane." "Are we gonna strategize this?" "Strategize how?" "I want to be gentle because we're accusing Sydney of lying." "What if she wants us to ask her?" "She wanted you to find the ticket because it's some cry for help." "Well, maybe." " Hey, guys." " Hi." "So, how was San Francisco?" "Two days of due diligence." "If I never see another financial statement, it'll be fine with me." "I'm just gonna crash, if you don't mind." "No, of course not." "Okay." "Hi." " Hi." " Hey." "I can't believe you didn't say anything." "That's why I wanted to strategize." "Syd, you think I'm kidding?" "I'm not kidding." "I want you to go away with me." "My point is, what happened the other night." "It was just too soon." "Russia's got a hell of a bootleg software industry." "I figured out a way of skimming money off the Russian mob." "What are you talking about?" "I got a lot of money hidden in offshore accounts." "Syd, I'm getting out." "I'm sick of lying to everyone." "I'm at the point where the idea of just walking away from people that are supposed to be my good friends is a relief." "And you tell me you've never felt that way." "I'm just saying that I've got someone helping me out." "I want you to come with me." "I can't tell you where, but I can tell you we won't need locks on the doors and you will learn how to surf." "You know I can't do that." "Why?" "For about a million reasons." "There might be 50 reasons, and I'd like the opportunity to refute all of them." "One of the biggest reasons is my mother." "Khasinau was her superior." "My mother was a spy for the KGB, and those files that we recovered may help me find her." "I'm not going anywhere until I know where she is." "What if I wait?" "Will you ever do it?" "Sir, as you requested, we followed up on Agent Noah Hicks." "Is Hicks in the building?" "Yes, sir." "He arrived 12 minutes ago." "Tell McCullough I need to see him." "Don't let Hicks leave." "Dad?" "Sydney." "Last time we spoke, you said you were gonna talk to someone." "I did." "Thank you." "I took care of it." "Marshall said he unlocked Khasinau's computer core." "I wouldn't have allowed your last operation." "Those computers are primarily used for theoretical analyses, war games." "Of the recovered files, none bear relevance to Khasinau's operation, his plans, or his cache of Rambaldi artifacts, nor do they give any hint to his whereabouts." "But when I was there," "I saw that there were some files on Mom." "Yes, I know." "Also recovered on the core were some equally unhelpful archival files." "In the case of your mother, video footage." "Was she in the video?" "Yes." "They showed her alive after the accident?" "Yes." "I have no interest in watching the video." "Analysis is reviewing it." "There's nothing to help in the hunt for Khasinau, so the risk was all for nothing." "Hey, Dixon." "I keep trying to think of some opening line." "Something to start off with." "To talk to you." "Noah, I'll be straight with you." "I don't trust you." "Which wouldn't be a problem, except I'm an intelligence officer, and if you stick around, my life is going to be in your hands, and yours in mine." "And in that scenario, the only person truly safe will be you." "Mr. Hicks, would you come with us, please?" "Is there a problem?" "Mr. Sloane asked for you to come with us." "That's never a good thing." "Excuse me." "And on March 1 6th of this year, you opened an account with Bank Africana." "Yes, sir." "Explain." "Well, it was exactly like the account we were just talking about." "It was opened up under an alias as part of an S VR operation." "Mr. McCullough, I was working undercover, and I was required to do a whole bunch of things which probably seem suspicious when viewed from the outside." "$47 million was transferred, then withdrawn within 2 4 hours." "Yes." "To an untraceable account." "Who was the recipient of that money?" "I don't know." "You don't seem real thrilled with these responses." "Have you ever conducted business with the G.L. Bank of Austria?" "Yes." "Please provide details." "This man is hiding something." "I'm curious to know what it is." "Would you like me to have a word with him?" "[Khasinau speaking Russian]" "LAURA:" "My Russian or American name?" "KHASINAU:" "Why not both?" "Irina Derevko and Laura Bristow." "When were you recruited for special duties?" "In 1 970, I was recruited to the KGB by you," "Alexander Khasinau." "Describe the objective of your operation." "Phase one." "I was to pose as an American, a student of Literature." "Phase two." "I was to make the acquaintance of a particular officer in the Central Intelligence Agency to insinuate myself into his life, to become his confidant, earn his trust." "[Man speaking Russian]" "Please state the officer by name." "Officer Jonathan Donahue Bristow." "Phase three?" "Phase three." "I was to begin to acquire details of the CIA operation to which Bristow was assigned." "Project Christmas." "[Door opens]" "You have no reason to believe that anyone else was suspicious of you?" "Nyet." " Hey." " Hey." " I need you to feed Donovan." " Who?" "What do you mean, who?" "My dog." "Which key is to the front?" "Where are you going?" "That's the top lock, that's the bottom lock." "I'm going to Bogotá." "Give him a can of the dog food that's on the cupboard floor and half a can of the dried stuff." "There's a bag of the dried stuff next to the canned stuff." "What the hell's in Bogotá?" "Eight years ago, a guy named Kishell" "Collapsed lung, he lost an eye." "It was bad, yeah." "Kishell used to work with Snowman, who we know is after Khasinau." "So we get Kishell, we can get Khasinau." "Exactly." "Half a can only." "I don't want to come back to a fat dog." "Sydney:" "There were two men in Mom's video." "One was Khasinau." "The other one." "I recognized him." "I knew I'd seen his face before." "It was the FBI agent who died in the accident with Mom." "Calder's real name is Igor Sergei Valenko, the man who was pursuing Mom." "The FBI spy hunter." "Dad, he was KGB." "It wasn't just Mom's death they faked." "It was Calder's, too." "If we can get to Calder, maybe we can find Khasinau." "You're assuming Calder and Khasinau still have ties." "We know that Khasinau liquidated $200 million in assets." "On that memo were initials." "I.S.V." "Also, six months ago, a man matching Calder's description was caught on an SD-4 camera entering a financial office in Cape Town, a known money-laundering operation." "I'm gonna suggest to Sloane that we get to Cape Town, seize their records, and find Calder." "Noah spent years in South Africa." "He'll be an asset." "SD-6 has run an additional profile on Noah." "There were anomalies, including recent bank activity which suggests he may have ties to K-Directorate." "Noah's been taken into custody." "What?" "No." "I know what that's about." "It has nothing to do with another agency." "Sydney, you have no perspective on who that man is." "You're as lost now as I was years ago." " You don't know him." " You don't know him." "That's the lesson in all this." "Noah Hicks is not a perfect man, but he is also not a traitor." "He's a loyal officer who believes that he's working for the CIA and has no idea that SD-6 would kill him if they thought he was a double agent." "Please." "Dad, talk to Sloane." "[Labored breathing]" "I never actually met The Snowman." "He always contacted me by telephone." "His name." "The Snowman." "It comes from his method." "He prefers an ice pick." "But he uses knives, too." "I helped arrange travel across difficult borders." "It was my specialty." "One operation, he was ambushed, attacked." "He fought off and killed eight men that night." "He thought it was me." "Thought I tipped someone off." "That was when he came after me." "He came to this house." "He attacked me while I slept." "Killing is his job." "He likes his job." "Mr. Kishell, I appreciate you talking to me." "I know this must be very difficult." "I know difficult." "Talk is easy." "I know the CIA has spoken to you before, years ago, but we recently learned that an organization has hired The Snowman for a job." "Now, I read the transcripts." "Last time, you said you had no leads." "I was hoping maybe this time, you might have some." "You have come too far to go home with nothing." "For years, I was afraid to do anything, to seek revenge." "But enough time has passed, Mr. Vaughn." "I have no more fear." "Yes, I have some leads." "And you'd be willing to share them?" "I will contact them myself." "See if I can find out where The Snowman is, what his plans are." "I'd appreciate that." "You must promise me one thing." "That when you find him... he will suffer, too." "Oh, come on, sweetheart, you're in pain." "He can get you a stronger m..." "Okay." "Yeah." "Yeah." "Yeah, just promise me that you'll call me after you talk to him, okay?" "Good." "Okay." "Me too." "Bye." "I need a minute." "Yeah." "This is about Noah Hicks." "There's something he's not telling us." "I think he might have been turned." "If you have Hicks killed, you'd be throwing away an asset." "How so?" "You want Khasinau." "You're closer than you think." "Were you aware that Calder, FBI, was working with the KGB since 1 973?" "Sydney's designed an operation that will lead us to Calder, at which point we'll be one step away from Khasinau." "And she wants Mr. Hicks involved." "This is becoming familiar, Jack." "Your coming to me, requesting special consideration for the men in Sydney's life." "Tippin didn't turn out to be a problem, did he?" "Sydney wasn't intimate with Tippin." "She is with Hicks." "I'm not sure that's my business, and I know it isn't yours." "Looking out the door" "I see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners" "Parading in a wake of sad relations" "As their shoes fill up with water" "And maybe I'm too young" "To keep good love from going wrong" "But tonight" "You're on my mind" "So you never know" "Too young to hold on" "And too old to just break free and run" "Sometimes a man gets carried away" "When he feels like he should be having his fun" "And much too blind to see" "SYDNEY:" "Sloane accepted the mission I proposed." "Noah and I are going to Cape Town." "Calder's done some business at a financial office there." "We're gonna break into that office, get the records, and hopefully find out where Calder is." "What's my countermission?" "When you realized Calder was KGB, you should have come to me." "Did you think that this was just an accident?" "I was thinking about the 36 hours the FBI kept me in chains." "If I turned over the Calder information, you would be required to forward it to the FBI, and we both know what they would do." " Classify it." " Omega 1 7." "We wouldn't be allowed near that investigation." "I'm supposed to give you this... tell you to write down whatever information you recover from Calder." "Stick it in the chamber, activate the beacon, and throw it in a trash can." "But I'm guessing you're not gonna use it." "Vaughn, I promise you Khasinau will not walk, and I won't let SD-6 get to him first." "But I refuse to let the FBI get in my way again." "[Gunshot]" "Nice shot." "Thanks." "Easy to shoot tranks." "No anxiety you're killing somebody." "MARSHALL:" "The floor is alarmed with highly sensitive motion detectors." "So we stay off the floor." "Of course, but it also has audio sensors that can detect any sound above.05 DBs." "In other words..." " [Techno music plays softly]" " This right here." "2 DBs." ".05 DBs is closer to the sound of a cockroach rubbing its legs together." "Okay, so what do we do?" "Well, active noise control." "It emits an out-of-phase audio signal that cancels out any sound within a 200-foot radius." "Check it out." "[Volume increases]" "That is really loud, right?" "All right, and..." "[No audio]" "[Music resumes]" "Ready, steady, go" "Ready, steady, go" "Ready, go" "Yo, ready" "Ready" "Ready" "Yo, ready, steady, go" "Ready, steady, go" "Strictly the mother..." "The server case is alarmed." "Don't let anything touch it." "You're gonna want to get a modem within 3 inches of the server." "Mr. Hicks, you'll hack into the server and then download all the data into your laptop." "Am I boring you?" "Ready, go" "Ready, steady, go" "Ready, steady, go" "Strictly the mother..." "Strictly the mother..." "Strictly the mother..." "Ready, steady, go" "Strictly the mother..." "Ready, steady, go" "KHASINAU:" "You have no reason to believe that anyone else became suspicious of you?" "LAURA:" "Nyet." "Of course I would have told you." "[Khasinau speaking Russian]" "How did you acquire your intel?" "Every night for 1 0 years, I went through his briefcase." "I eavesdropped on all of his private conversations." "I planted listening devices on his clothing." "He was blinded by his emotions." "He knew nothing." "I can tell you one thing." "Jack Bristow was a fool." "Dr. Barnett." "Mr. Bristow." "Yes." "I was..." "I was wondering if you might have some time this afternoon." "I'll make some time." "FRANCIE:" "I didn't pick that play." "WILL:" "The computer picked it." "You didn't." "No, but I don't..." " Reset it!" " Touchdown!" " You cheated." " Score." " Dude!" " Score." "Hey, guys." "Hey." "What's going on?" "Why are you looking at me like that?" "Did you guys break something?" "No." "I found this in the pocket of your jacket" "I borrowed last week." "You said you were in Seattle." "You can tell us if it's none of our business, but..." "We just care about you, that's all." " This is serious." " Yeah." "Okay, I've signed a dozen non-disclosure agreements, so this is between us." "Of course." "Six months ago, my job at the bank changed." "We have a handful of clients, most of them are international, who don't want their business to go through the postal service." "They don't want a paper trail." "So, I fly to them as the bank's representative." "I'm so sorry I had to keep this from you guys." "I just had no choice." "Is that legal?" "Oh, yeah, it's totally legit." "It's just secret." "Francie thought you were having an affair." "I just said if you were having an affair," "I would know about it." "Well, this is all there is." "So I'm gonna go change, and then I'm gonna kick your ass in that game." "Oh, bring it on." "Seriously." "I am so bored playing with Francie, it's rid..." "If I scream" "Would you come and wake me from this dream?" "I know there's something better" "To be saved" "I need someone to take my breath away" "Hey, Marshall." "Hey, Miss Bristow." "Anything yet?" "Any word on where Calder is?" "Mr. Sloane didn't tell you?" "There was no data recovered from Noah's laptop." "That server room must have had active countermeasures, so, basically, when you ran out, your laptop got pulsed and erased everything." " Hey." " Hi." "You heard about the computers." "Yes." "Syd, if your mom is out there, you will find her." "It's gonna happen." "I just feel like I'm at a dead end." "How's the arm?" "Well, it feels great." "The lidocaine hasn't worn off." "26 stitches." "New personal record." " Hello, Sydney." " Hello." "I was disappointed when I heard Marshall's news, but I'm confident we'll pick up Calder's trail." "Noah, flight to Baku leaves at 6:00." "In two weeks, you'll enter into a doctoral program on Petrol Geoscience at Khazar University." "Inside this folder, there's information on dead-drop procedure." "See I.D. Services for your passport and travel visas." "Good luck, Noah." "Noah just got home from a 5-year assignment." "He's been home for two weeks." "Do you think it's wise to send him under again so soon?" "I volunteered." "Thank you." "SYDNEY:" "You're not going to Baku, are you?" "No." "Tuvalu." "It's an island in the South Pacific." "I talked to my contact." "He says now's my window." "I'm leaving tonight." "And we could go together." "Sometimes all I want to do is disappear." "Just let all of this go and just start over again." "But I have my personal reasons for staying." "Syd, this life is not worth it, and you know it." "There's too many secrets." "There's too much lying to everybody." "I know." "I know." "Then come with me." "Here's what we're gonna do." "I booked you on a flight for tomorrow night." "Syd, you come with me for one week to Tuvalu, and let me prove to you that it can work." "Noah..." "If it's about your mother, you and I can find your mother." "We don't need the CIA for that." "It'll be our last mission." "And after that, we'll just start completely new." "Can you imagine that?" "Be on that plane." "You give me one week." "Just one week." "One week." "Mr. Sloane!" "Mr. Sloane!" "I know I've been impressed with myself, but this time I am freaking out." "I used a signal-lost recovery procedure to examine the low-level data sector." "I created a raw image..." "Marshall!" "What did you do?" "I found Valenko." "I mean, Calder." "It's the same guy, right?" "Well, I found him." "Marshall has reconstructed the data that you downloaded from Cape Town." "The information directed us to Mackay, Australia, and Bentley Calder's private residence." "This one is straightforward." "A daylight snatch operation." "You lead a recovery team, grab Calder, bring him here." "The plane leaves in two hours." "Dixon, could you give us a minute?" "Sydney, I told you I'd get you closer to your mother." "I'm always here for you." "You know that." "Thanks." "Will you be my favorite regret?" "[Telephone rings]" "Could I be your sweetest mistake?" "Hello?" "Hey, it's me." "I am 35,000 feet over the Pacific, and you just missed the most beautiful sunset that I've ever seen in my life." "Hi." "You're coming, right?" "Tell me that you are coming to meet me." "Noah." "Come on." "If things were different..." "Any word on Calder?" "No." "It was great to see you again." "Syd, whatever you're about to say, it's not goodbye." "Okay?" "Okay." "All right." "I'll see you." "I'll see you, too." "We'll look until we find" "Something neither will forget" "[Telephone rings]" "Okay, I believe this isn't goodbye." "MAN:" "Joey's Pizza?" "Wrong number." "Devlin knows you're going to Australia." "You understand he'll be expecting a full report?" "Yeah." "I know how important it is for you to find your mother, and I'll help you." "Thanks." "Any word on The Snowman?" "That guy I met in Bogotá." "I'm waiting for him to call me back." "You want to tell me what's going on?" "Sydney, you can talk to me." "Off the record." "I'm all right." "Wait until I open the main gate." ""B" team will secure the perimeter in case Calder tries to take off." "[Telephone rings]" "This is Vaughn." "KISHELL:" "Mr. Vaughn, I have spoken to my friends." "I have some information for you." " Dixon." " Are you at the junction box?" "No, not yet." "This is weird." "I don't see any guards." " Weiss." " Yeah." "The Snowman's been spotted in Mackay." "He's going after Calder to get to Khasinau." "Can you think of a way to contact Sydney?" " We don't have her on comm?" " No." "Dixon?" "Dixon?" "I just saw three guards." "They're dead." " [Static]" " Dixon?" "[Crash, man screams]" "Oh, no!" "Calder!" "[Snowman groaning]" "[Breathing heavily]" "No." "I tried to keep you from this." "I want you to know that." "[Door opens]" "DIXON:" "Sydney!"
