"Hello, Sydney." "What do you want?" "The Covenant is about to make a move." "If you have some intel, protocol is you pass it through Lauren Reed." "She's your handler." "Well, Ms. Reed is very able, but I'm afraid she can't possibly comprehend the intricacies of serving two masters simultaneously." "You were brilliant at it." "The way you would walk into my office, look me in the eyes...and lie to me." "For me to succeed in my new work as a double agent for the Covenant, I'll need your help." "Your needs don't concern me." "You'll find the details on toureurope.eu." "It's encoded in a photo of the Vatican." "The password is "Credit Dauphine"..." "for old time's sake." "Clever." "I miss LA" "I miss Emily" "I miss the friendship with your father" "I miss your confidence and trust" "Perhaps, I can get it back someday?" "You will never have my confidence and trust... or my father's friendship and respect...ever." "All right, I wasn't ready!" "Wait 'til I say the words, "I'm ready. "" "Dude, what's the matter with you?" "Nothing." "My brother used to do this." "Do what?" "Shut down like you're doin'." "Get all quiet and 'tough guy'." "That's not what I'm doing." "he'd deny it, too." "Then he'd brood and get...mopey, like you're doin'." "Finally, it got too much for him... he'd have to come around and tell me what the problem was..." "It's been three weeks since I learned that Sydney murdered Lazarey..." "I've been lying to my wife for three weeks." "Vaughn, I know guys who've lied to their wives for a lot longer than that..." "You understand that the reason your brother didn't like talking to you is because you say stupid things, right?" "Listen...you were ordered not to say anything, right?" "This isn't your choice!" "Yeah, and she was ordered to figure out who murdered Lazarey..." "I mean, that's my point." "I'm actively engaged in preventing her from doing her job." "She's gonna find out, I mean, you know she is and that you're protecting Sydney..." "See where I'm going with this?" "Well..." "This is why people from the CIA should not get married to people from the NSC, man." "Don't poop where you sleep Thanks a lot ." "Okay...." "You know what?" "That hurts..." "This is where Lang will be..." "I'll take care of it." "It must be done a certain way." "There's an...a...extraction required." "I assume you've stepped out the details..." "Yeah, your partner's been briefed." "My partner!" "?" ".." "I don't think so." "This is not a request..." "Look, if you don't trust me by now... perhaps you should be in business with someone else... and you can tell that to San'ko." "We've logged on to Tour Europe and downloaded Sloane's intel." "The Covenant is after a device that will give them access to Russia's strategic arsenal." "It was designed by this man, Robert Lang, hardware engineer for a German security firm." "Lang was approached by someone posing as a Russian defense official." "They contracted him to design a test for security flaws in their nuclear command and controls system." "This guy Lang created this really..." "cool...device." "Basically, take it to any missile silo in all of Russia and it interfaces with the launch control console, bypass all security protocols, initiation codes, the commander's launch key...irrelevant." "It's a skeleton key for Russia's nuclear weapons?" "Yeah...and to be honest, I'm just a little bit jealous..." "Did they ever deliver it to the Covenant?" "No." "He discovered that the man who hired him wasn't actually Russian defense, at which point, Lang went on the run to prevent the Covenant from getting what he'd invented." "This is a picture of what he used to look like." "According to Sloane's intel," "Lang has surgically altered his appearance to hide from the Covenant." "We know that tomorrow night Lang is scheduled to meet this man" "Heinrich Strauss at the Club Delphi in Milan." "He's picking up new identity papers." "Remember, Sloane's intel came from the Covenant, so obviously... they're looking to grab Lang..." "and this skeleton key." "Sydney and Vaughn..." "you need to get to Lang before the Covenant does." "You leave tonight." "Marshall will go over op tech" "Lauren, Sydney..." "I need a moment." "Given the current situation, I need to make a change." "I want you to take over as Sloane's handler." "No, I'm sorry that is not a good idea." "While it's not my favorite part of the job, can I ask why I'm being replaced?" "It's not an indictment." "It's that Sydney is more familiar with the players..." "What players?" "There's Sloane and Sark...that's it." "No." "There's another" "Sydney..." "Allison Doren is alive." "She's alive?" "You can thank me later..." "You look like you've seen a ghost." "I truly thought you were dead the last two years." "You'll have to start at the beginning or the end, after the last time I saw you..." "Will Tippin discovered what had happened... that his girlfriend had been killed and I'd been doubled to take her place." "He had to be eliminated." "What happened with Bristow?" "When the Covenant found you, you were both unconscious." "I can only remember that in bits and pieces." "She came home..." "I realized that she knew... she aimed the gun at me..." "The next thing I remember, it was three weeks later and I woke up in a Covenant run hospital outside of Marseilles." "Took me six months to fully recover" "I've been working for them ever since." "Were you behind them extracting me from the CIA?" "I wish I could claim credit for that." "I only learned you were working for us recently." "My tenure began shortly after my father's murder." "They freed me in exchange for my inheritance." "Who killed your father?" "I don't know...but I intend to find out." "Bristow should have to pay for these scars..." "She will." "I'm no longer Sloane's handler." "Dixon gave that job to Sydney Bristow." "Good." "That frees you up to focus on the Lazarey murder." "We have a source working inside the Russian government who's agreed to help us out." "They have the assassin's identity?" "Not yet." "But apparently they hold information that could lead us to it." "Then why aren't they using it?" "Lazarey was a Russian diplomat." "You'd think they'd want that answer more than any of us..." "The Covenant doesn't want anyone to know they're behind the assassination." "And your source believes their reach extends so far within the Russian government that they can make that happen." "You leave tonight." "Any leak, and our source could be compromised...and killed." "That means no one at the CIA can know about this, including your husband." "Vienna..." "I know...surprised me, too..." "For how long?" "you know how they go..." "it's a NATO security briefing." "Two days at the most." "I'm surprised Lindsay reassigned you to cover a briefing..." "I know...but he said he needs me there..." "couldn't exactly say no, could I?" "What about Milan?" "Should be a quick turnaround." "Be back in a day." "When we get back..." "when we're done with this we need to go away." "The desert?" "Anywhere..." "My superior indicated, Mr. Tipucoff, that you have some information for us." "How does a British woman become an American spy?" "I'm not a spy." "And though I grew up in London, I was born in the United States." "Now that you know my life story, I have some questions myself." "Your government's running a probe into this." "I would think you'd want to bring closure to your own investigation." "Why come to us?" "I already explained this to your superiors." "I want to hear it for myself." "Andrean and I were, um...colleagues, since our time together at St. Petersburg University." "I'm sorry." "I have for...some time now, suspected the existence of a mole whom I believe is still loyal to the Covenant" "This is a file of digital recordings which chronicles hundreds of phone calls made or received by our deceased diplomat," "Andrean Lazarey." "Perhaps the murderer can be traced to one of these calls." "I trust that you'll see that justice is done for my murdered comrade." "Where can I contact you?" "You can't." "We never had this conversation." "So that camera that Marshall gave us is a miniaturized X-ray camera..." "What do you want to bet this thing's leaking radiation?" "So...we're looking for Lang..." "Yeah...the camera's supposed to ID his plastic surgery." "It'll transmit images back to my PDA that Marshall programmed to identify fractures, scar tissue, implants..." "anyone who's been under the knife." "You okay?" "Is it Allison?" "Since I learned that she's alive..." "I keep wondering..." "Does she still look like her?" "Does she look like Francie?" "Because if she does?" "As much as I know I should keep her alive to maybe try to figure out the last two years of my life?" "All I'll wanna do...is kill her." "Heinrich Strauss..." "he's the man providing Lang with identity papers." "As we speak, he's getting drunk in the club." "I'll keep an eye on him." "The camera's in the stone." "Do you mind?" "No." "Thank you." "Let's go." "Let's go." "Okay, we're looking for someone with massive facial reconstruction." "Lang's about 5' 10", 170 pounds." "How's the camera working?" "Video's linking up now." "Signal strength's at 100%." "I'll start looking for Lang." "Hey, check out that guy to your left." "Buy me a drink?" "Nothing." "I love this song." "Okay, nothing there..." "Keep moving..." "Check out that guy with no rhythm..." "No, only a nose job...not enough to be Lang." "Chin implant at 3 o'clock..." "Collagen lips straight ahead..." "Okay, those breasts are real..." "What do you think?" "Should I get my nose done?" "Maybe a little tapering..." "Get the bump removed?" "Whoa, wait, wait, wait...go back." "Go back to your left, 2 o'clock." "Right there?" "Yeah, yeah...hold it...just like that." "Okay, nose, chin, cheek lift, eye config..." "That's Lang!" "And there's Strauss." "He just got his identity papers..." "Someone has a laser sight on him!" "Vaughn, Allison's the shooter; she's up in the balcony." "I'm on my way!" "Wait!" "Lang!" "Don't move!" "Lang ran out;" "I'm pinned down." "Vaughn, where are you?" "I'm on the balcony!" "Do you see her!" "?" "No, she took off!" "I'm goin' after her." "I'm goin' after Lang." "Hello." "Sydney, she went down the elevator shaft." "She has Lang." "What floor is she on?" "The basement." "Why didn't she kill me?" "Maybe she likes you..." "Weiss, I'm serious." "So am I!" "Come on...she lived with you for months!" "She doubled herself as your best friend..." "maybe in that time, she started to like you." "I could see that happening." "It was like she needed to keep me alive." "I.." "I know this sounds weird, but it was like she was ordered not to kill me." "Hmmm." "Well, that's lucky." "I wanna know your fight two years ago." "You shot her three times." "So wait...she took this guy's tooth!" "?" "She took the guy's tooth." "Just when you think the world can't get any weirder..." "So, have you checked the dental records to find out what's so weird about his teeth?" "Langley crosschecked all accessible files;" "they had nothing." "But then Lauren was a genius..." "Genius isn't quite what I was..." "What?" "What'd ya do?" "I miss all the good briefings..." "Lauren realized that we already had Lang's X-rays... and we could use them to figure out what was in his tooth." " What?" " The X-cam..." "Marshall's necklace." "We used it to see who had plastic surgery;" "I took the pictures myself." "Nice!" "I have a meeting with the NSC..." "I'll walk you out." "You know, Vaughn's right;" "the real question isn't why she didn't kill you... it's how come she's still alive at all..." "Maybe Allison's a werewolf..." "Maybe the only way to kill her is with a silver bullet..." "Okay, if you look right here, this is Lang's jaw before his tooth was removed." "Now, if we look closely right here..." "that looks like a normal filling that when you have a... cavity, you have it...filled..." "from too much sugar and not flossing...which I do every day, twice a day...but, upon further examination..." "I actually magnified it over a thousand times, and... it's actually an RFID chip." "Now RFID stands for radio frequency identification." "Uh..." "Flinkman..." "you know what would be great?" "English..." "Oh, okay, sorry..." "I forgot..." "you're...not that astute." "What can I...?" "Oh, are you guys familiar with those quickpass things you use at, um, gas stations?" "You know, uh, go on, uh, key chains, and uh, actually, I think I, uh, have one... if you...need a visual, uh, demonstration...you know, this," "this little thing right here that lets you pay for your gas at the pump...you don't have to use a credit card..." "Marshall..." "We're familiar with them." "Lang has something like that in his tooth?" "Sort of." "Um, uh..." "it doesn't work at a gas station... although if it did...it'd be wicked cool..." "We believe that Lang used this transmitter to open a high security lockup." "Yes, and I believe that Lang kept his magic missile launching device locked up, and then used this tooth to open the vault." "Or a briefcase..." "I mean, this device could be anywhere." "We have to assume the Covenant has the location." "As far as we know, they could have the device in their possession already." "Sloane's our man in the Covenant..." "so I assume there's a plane waiting." "How do I know what I'm looking for?" "I've supplied you with the time and date of Lazarey's murder." "Screen any and all calls made in the weeks leading up to it." "Based on what we know, we believe the killer was someone he expected." "Lazarey killed by a man or a woman?" "A woman." "It'll take me a while to filter through all these calls..." "Any calls with a red flag, run them through voiceprint analysis." "Maybe we can make a positive ID on one of these callers." "Sydney Bristow here to see Arvin Sloane." "Yes, he's been expecting you." "Right this way..." "Of course, Mr. Secretary..." "I'd be happy to speak with the delegation from UNESCO." "At their convenience..." "Just let me know...thank you." "Uh, give my regards to Monique..." "Sydney, I was very pleased when Dixon said you'd agreed to be my handler..." "It was an assignment, not an agreement... the way a janitor doesn't agree to clean a toilet..." "But as your handler, you'll do as I say, when I say it." "I select your assignments;" "I design your missions." "I control you...not the other way around." "Is that what you used to let Vaughn do?" "Control you?" "The intel you provided was accurate." "The Covenant is in pursuit of a device that would give them access to Russia's strategic weapons." "You failed to get Lang, didn't you?" "Lang is dead" "The Covenant has an access code which will open a vault that contains this device." "And you know the location of this vault?" "No." "But Sark and Allison do, and you're going to get them to give it to you." "Allison..." "I was wondering when Allison would resurface..." "I'm sorry, Sydney..." "I can only imagine that seeing Allison must be very painful for you." "You will set up a meeting with Sark and Allison." "You'll explain to them that their travel plans have been compromised." "You'll then offer them assistance in revising their arrangements." "And pass the information along to you." "That won't be necessary; you'll be wearing a wire." "And if they discover that it's a setup?" "Then I get to hear them kill you." "I went through the entire disc." "There were 300 calls and about 12 percent of them are encrypted, including this one from the day before the murder..." " Yes, this is Andrean." " Hello, Andrean." "It's me." "Hello." "About the stock transfer..." "So I trust you've located a safe place to park the assets..." "I have." "Well then...when would like to come by to discuss the particulars?" "Can you make time tomorrow at 3?" "Of course." "I look forward to seeing you then." "See you then." "That has to be the killer." "He was murdered at 3:15." "I ran it through analysis;" "the woman's voice has been digitally altered." "Can you restore the original?" "No." "It was altered at the source." "But, I was able to access records from the Russian telephone exchange..." "So you can do a trace..." "I already did..." "See, whoever placed the call did an amazing job." "They routed to Lazarey's PBX via a defunct satellite network, through the Internet, via IP gateway, and out over a land line to what appears to be a secure telephone at this address..." "London... 34 Trenton Place..." "Knightsbridge." "A company called KNG Microtech." "Good job." "I found the office where the call originated." "It's been empty for some time." "I spoke to the leasing agent." "According to their records, this office was leased a year ago November 24th a four-year lease, paid in advance." "Was there a name on the lease?" "Yes, there was." "I believe she is the person who killed Lazarey." "Her name is Julia Thorne." "I feel like a field agent again." "Do you have a 20 on the targets?" "Sydney, I've never told you about my time with the Agency, have I?" "Yes or no." "I was very patriotic once..." "No one's asking..." "Here they are." "Mr. Sark..." "Allison..." "You're looking well." "I look like someone else" "When you hired me to undergo gene therapy, you promised me you could reverse engineer the process." "But Sydney Bristow destroyed the technology that would have allowed us to...return you." "I'm sorry for your loss." "You indicated that it was important we meet." "The CIA is on to you." "My sources tell me the Agency knows you've extracted an RFID chip from Mr. Lang;" "the plane that you've chartered is under surveillance." "As council to the Covenant, I suggest that you move up your timetable." "If you'll let me know where you need to go, I'll have a plane waiting within the hour." "He's lying." "Allison..." "No, she's a...wonderful judge of character..." "Sydney Bristow found you in Milan." "If I were a betting man, I'd say she'd find you again." "I'm simply here to help." "There's no way Sark's gonna go for this..." "We're going to Bulgaria." "The device is in a vault in Sofia." "What'd I tell ya?" "This is the best plan ever!" "I can get you there first thing." "Tomorrow morning." "Done." "Our business here is complete." "Ask them where I've been the last two years..." "I'll call you as soon as the arrangements are complete." "Ask them...or I'll send a feedback signal through your comm so loud they'll hear it and know you're wired... at which point they'll kill you." "It sucks being a double agent, doesn't it?" "You know Allison, I'm thinking...seeing you again..." "I'm reminded of all the things that have happened over the past two years." "I..." "I'm curious...have you and Sydney Bristow crossed paths?" "Why?" "Well I heard that you had an opportunity to kill her in Milan and that you didn't take it..." "The Covenant asked me not to." "Really?" "Why is that?" "They wanna retrieve something..." "something in her memory." "What?" "Something she saw?" "Something she experienced?" "I don't know." "I'm as curious as you are." "Something you saw!" "?" "What the hell is that!" "?" "I have no idea." "Sydney, we've been over this." "Yes, I know." "The NSC techniques to recapture my memories are invasive..." "Invasive!" "?" "That's too benign a word." "We're talking about surgical procedures that could leave you with permanent brain damage!" "Allison said the Covenant wants to access something I saw..." "And we'll discover what that is in time..." "Dad, I am walking around with a secret in my head;" "something so fantastic that the Covenant operatives have been ordered not to kill me." "I need to know what that is!" "I understand, but we're not doing it like that!" "Then how do you propose we do it!" "?" "I am losing my mind!" "I just got off the phone with our NIS liaison in Sofia." "Once Allison's plane lands, you and Vaughn will coordinate with the local authorities and track her to the location of the vault." "We'll wait until she retrieves the device, then apprehend her." "I understand." "You leave at once." "Is there a problem with that?" "No there isn't." "I'll go over op tech with Marshall." "I want you to be clear on the rules of engagement." "Yes, I know." "Allison is another link we now have into the Covenant." "She is part of our larger agenda, and as such, is not to be killed." "I want her dead." "What!" "?" "The order from Langley is to bring her in..." "dead or alive." "She killed my wife; she killed your best friend" "So, I look at this as an opportunity." "The only reason why I hesitated before was that I hoped that she might have information for you." "But now that we know there's no hope for that?" "I want that bitch dead!" "I hear, actually, you wanna track Allison, right?" "Well, I came up with a solution to that problem..." "The chip inside Lang's tooth;" "it uses a frequency signature, and that's how it unlocks the vault that contains his missile launching device." "You explained this...the QuickPass." "Now this thing will hone in on the frequency which will lead us to Allison, and she will lead us to the device." "However..." "I..wasn't...really sure..." "exactly the frequency that the chip transmits on, so I, you know, covered a...broader spectrum." "Is that gonna be a problem?" "No, noooo...not really." "All right...kinda." "It might be set off by certain microwave ovens so I'd steer clear of pancake houses of the..." "international variety...?" "Got it." "The...uh, EPROM chip isn't finished burning, so it's gonna be a while..." "All right, then..." "Just let me know when it's ready." "Actually, uh...can I ask you a favor?" "Uh, sure." "I don't know if you've noticed, but, uh..." "I'm not that smooth around the ladies well, in fact, I'm a little awkward." "You got the looks and I got the brains..." "But..." "look, I wanted to propose to Carrie, so I came up with an idea, and I was hoping you could give me some objective feedback." "I got the looks, you got the brains!" "?" "Tell me what you think and be brutal okay?" "Just be honest." "Don't uh, hold back or anything...okay..." "You're the micro in my chip; the giga in my byte." "I think about you, Carrie, every morning, noon and night....morning, noon and night..." "That's..." "Kid!" "We had sushi!" "I'll protect you, can't you see?" "Carrie, marry me..." "I love you..." "No good?" "I..." "I think she's gonna say yes." "Really?" "Because of the...rock jam song?" "Maybe in spite of the rock jam song." "All right!" "Oh!" "Hey...your thing's ready..." "Thanks, Marshall." "Rock on!" "Sloane put Allison on the ground 20 minutes ago..." "Sir, we have a visual..." "There she is" "What is that place?" "It looks abandoned, like an old hotel." "Do you have an address?" "Yeah. 14205 Beckerman." "Okay, I'll tell the pilot." "Put us down near 14205 Beckerman." "What kind of range does this thing have?" "Marshall said it should track the signal of the chip Allison's using from about 50 yards." "But then he also said that it could be set off by certain microwave ovens..." "Well, that's great." "Do you have a signal?" "Well, either Allison's in there, or someone's making microwave popcorn..." "Let's go." "Where is she?" "Hold on...upstair" "She's 30 feet down on the left." "We can't track her without the chip." "I'll go this way." "Okay." "She's in the west stairwell." "Copy!" "Well, this is familiar, isn't it?" "Oh, I was thinking about this all last night;" "I couldn't sleep." "If I follow my orders..." "If I don't kill you;" "you're gonna kill me." "Sorry about Francie;" "I was just following orders." "Once I'd been doubled, I had to take her place..." "We did, like, 80 dinners." "We're like a huge success!" "Hello?" "Mom, I'm gonna have to put you on hold for just a second, okay?" "What...?" "Move into the kitchen." "You're me!" "I am now." "Mom, I'm gonna have to call you back." "I had nothing against her;" "she was just a casualty of circumstance." "Don't blame yourself, Syd...there was no way you have known." "Just like when you recovered Rambaldi's journal, you had no idea it contained a formula." "What are you talking about?" "A formula for a medication that would ultimately be used to help heal my wounds." "So yeah...you almost killed me..." "But you also saved my life." "I shot her and we got the device" "I know what you wanted..." "But she had a pulse." "Where is she now?" "They've taken her to a hospital." "Civilian ambulance?" "with an armed guard." "Why?" "I'll call about having her extradited." "I want an update on her condition as soon as you get it." "Okay." "Good work, Sydney." "Thank you." "What do you mean they never got there?" "The ambulance left twenty minutes ago, but the hospital is only ten minutes away." "Did you try the radio?" "Of course." "They don't answer." "The Rambaldi book;" "do you remember a formula for a medication?" "No." "We've gotta find that ambulance." "Are you sure this is the route they would have taken?" "That's what he said." "This is the only way to the hospital." "Yes, there is no other." "What?" "This makes no sense!" "If Allison had backup, they would have been with her at the hotel!" "I don't think she needed backup." "What do you mean?" "I think she did this herself." "The medic said she barely had a pulse!" "I know!" "She did this, Vaughn." "She did this."
