"It looks like Austin is going with... an astronaut." "And Kelly's drawing a police officer." "I'm not sure elephant counts as a job, Lawrence." "What about you, Sydney?" "Are you having trouble getting started?" "That's OK." "I can help you." "I want you to close your eyes... and tell me the very first thing that pops into your mind when I ask this question." "What do you wanna be when you grow up?" " Sloane hit the 12." "They're all dead." " He's solidifying power." "I need to contact Sydney." "Get Marshall and Rachel." "Marcus, trust no one else." "Rachel, we have to leave." "Rachel?" "We don't have time to mourn right now." "Syd..." "Syd!" "Sydney." "Sydney." "Syd." "One, two, three." "Come on, come on!" "One, two, three." "Come on." "You're stronger than this." "OK." "Excuse me." "Sydney." "Something's happened." "Your mother was in an accident." "Her car skidded off the road and..." "She's gone." "Your mother..." "sh... she's dead." "Sydney, sweetheart, I need you to be strong right... right now." "I need you to be str... strong." "It's OK." "It's OK." "Everything's gonna be OK." "I saw the news reports on Los Angeles." "Good work." "I'm not certain "good" is the proper word, but thank you." "I've dispatched a team to the location at Mount Subasio." "I wanna be airborne as soon as they find something." "Understood." "Make contact with our friend in Hong Kong?" "Yes." "She sends her regards." "Should I tell her we have a deal?" "Yes." "Let her know the transports will leave just as soon as they're ready." "Am I to understand that we're still going through with this?" "Don't tell me you're having second thoughts." "Of course not." "It's just it's not every day one gets to be a part of global genocide." "I might be able to tap into Langley's network." "I can spoof the origin." "They won't be able to trace the hack." "Sloane will try to seize control of Prophet Five's operations." "We should identify any unusual activity in their holdings." " Bristow." " It's me." "We're in Siena." " So Sydney's with you?" " Yeah." "We're both OK." "Thank God." "We've had a situation here." "Home base has been compromised." "Tom didn't make it." "Stay at the safe house." "Once we gather more information, we'll forward it to you." "Got it." "Vaughn... how is she?" "She took a pretty big hit, but she'll bounce back." " Sydney." " Dad?" "You did this?" "Can you show me how you did it?" " What?" " It's a test... called an indicator." "People in my line of work use it to identify people with a highly developed sense of three-dimensional reasoning." "Very few people can do it." "I can't do it." "You can't?" "What it means, Sydney, is... you are a very special girl." "12 hours ago two intercontinental cruise missiles were stolen in Moscow." " You think it's Sloane?" " Whatever he's up to... he said it was too late to be stopped." "He also said that he'd wipe out everyone at APO." "He was wrong." "Still, how can we find him?" "It's impossible." "We don't have a single lead." " We can't trust the CIA." " Sydney, stop." "Let's not overlook the fact that you basically died today." "You and I have gotten pretty good at impossible." "I'm gonna have to deal with this wound." "I don't have any anesthetic." "It's gonna hurt." "Just hold still." "Sorry." "Why would Sloane steal the missiles?" " What?" " He just wiped out the 12, right?" "Which means that he controls their assets." "He wouldn't steal missiles." "He'd just buy them on the black market." "I think I know how to find him." "We start with the money." "If we can hack into the system, we can ID who the payoffs went to." "Then all we need are phone records." "If I'm right, they'll lead us right to Sloane." "Or at least someone he's been working with." "We know you're working with Arvin Sloane." "And we know about the ICBMs he's recently acquired." "What we don't know is where they are or where they're headed." "Now, I'm well aware that you're tough, that you've been conditioned to withstand torture." "But I have something you don't have." "I have your former best friend." "And I know what you're afraid of." "If I were you, I would stay extremely still." " She has no idea where the missiles are." " Sure?" "Positive." "What she does know is Sloane plans to target two cities with high civilian concentrations." "He's not interested in the devastation." "He'll profit off the reconstruction." "Sloane controls Prophet Five's network." "Communications, finance - he'll make billions." "It gets worse." "Sloane's in Mongolia." "Put on your dancing shoes." "We are going out tonight." " I can't tonight." " "Can't" is not an option." "Charlie got us passes for that new club in Silver Lake." "That job fair's tonight." "I want to go." "Job fair?" "Syd!" "You've four years to figure out what kind of job you want." "My advisor yelled at me 'cause I still haven't picked a major." "Education." "Done." "Be a teacher like your mom." "You always talk about how happy she was." "I thought about that." "But I think of teaching as my safety net." "Teaching's no safety net." "You know how dangerous it is to be a teacher?" "Kids bring knives to school these days." "I hate that I could make a decision now that would affect the rest of my life." "Well, I say go with education." "Oh, Charlie is bringing a friend tonight - Danny something." " We'll pick you up at eight." " I'll see you later." "Sydney Bristow?" "I was hoping I might have a moment of your time." "Tell Dixon we'll touch base as soon as we cross into Mongolia." "Marshall and I will hack into their NRO, see if we can use their optical satellites to locate the missiles." "Rachel, listen." "Prophet Five is gone." "Your family is no longer in danger." "You don't have to do this anymore." "People have given their lives for this." "I'm not going to bail on them now." "I'm in this until it's over." "Of course, if we don't find Sloane, that may not be very long from now." "Does it have to be so filthy?" "If Rambaldi can prophesize the future, he might have said not to wear $500 shoes." "Structural imaging shows that there's a chamber about 200 feet below us." "It's quite a climb." "You needn't worry." "The next step is for me alone." "At last... after almost 30 years." "Is it everything you imagined?" "Nadia!" "I'm so glad you're here." "If I didn't have someone to share this with, I may have doubted my own eyes." "You're talking to your dead daughter." "This is an odd time to question your sanity." "Perhaps." "So that's it." "All this time, that's what you wanted." "This, sweetheart, this is what everybody has always wanted." "And I've found it." "It's over, Sloane." "Correct me if I'm wrong, Mr. Vaughn, but aren't you supposed to be dead?" "I suppose we'll have to rectify that." "Well, then, it appears we have a predicament." "Don't move." "No!" "Sydney, don't!" " What is this, Sloane?" " Please don't be rash." "Give me one reason why I shouldn't destroy this." "Suppose I were to give you two good reasons." "Hang up." "Rachel and I hacked into their NRO global surveillance system, looked at the missiles." "We noticed some weird activity on the EWS." "Someone's trying to disable our defense satellites." "A virus is eating through our grid." "Sloane." "He's gonna strike the US." "Can you purge the virus?" "No, not from here." "But I did pinpoint the origin." "Someone uploaded it from Hong Kong." "Who's in Hong Kong?" "Who are you protecting?" " Should I get the snake?" " Don't." "Sloane had to call in a partner." "He needed something he didn't have." "What's that?" "Hand me the sphere, Sydney." "I'll let you all walk out of here." "I won't insult you with pretense, Sydney." "We know each other too well for that." "I know you're trying to figure a way out." "Hand over the sphere, and I will let you all walk away." "If I give this to you, what's to guarantee you won't shoot us anyway?" "Despite what you may think, I'm not heartless." "Come on, take my offer." "It appears that Vaughn is back." "Go, be a family." "Frankly, I don't think you have any other option." "If you want this, we'll walk out of here together, and then we'll talk." "Remember, Sydney, it's your choice." "Dad!" "Dad!" "Dad!" "Dad?" "Dad, are you home?" "That's right." "They're having problems with their tail-rudder controls." "OK." "I'll get back to you." "Hello, Sydney." " What's this?" " Open it." "You've been paying my tuition." "I thought I should at least help out." " What did you do, rob a bank?" " Sort of." "I got a job at a bank." "It's just part time, for now at least." "It's a French bank called Credit Dauphine." "They have a very international clientele." " Credit Dauphine?" " Yeah." "They have 12 branches around the world." " You're already working there?" " About a month." "I wanted to make sure it would work out before I told you." " A month?" "Good." "It's not too late to quit." " What?" " Listen to me..." " I'm not quitting this job." "I like it." " I'm good at it." " That's not the point." " What is the point?" " Sydney..." " God, if Mom were here..." " If your mother was here..." "If your mother was here, she would want you to focus on school - which is what you're going to do." "I didn't come to ask your permission." " I've already made my decision." " This is not your decision to make." "Sydney." "Sydney, come back!" "Right here." "You're OK." "You're OK." "It's OK." "I'm gonna go call for help, OK?" "OK, just be still." "You're gonna be OK." "Jack's been shot." " How bad?" " It's critical." "We need air support." "Contact Salim in Ulan Batar." "Have him send a medevac unit." "Tell them to hurry!" " Dad, keep talking to me." " I'm gonna be fine." "It's... it's just..." "It's just a scratch." "I'm just gonna take a look." "You're gonna be OK." "Chopper should be a half-hour." " Did you hear that?" " Yeah." "Listen." "Sloane's dead." "Sark got away." " He's got the artifact." " I think we know where he's going." "Sorry." "Sorry." " Medevac's on its way." "How's he doing?" " His heart rate's up." "I think the bullet penetrated his lung." "He's not getting enough air." "Syd, Sloane has a partner." "We know who's behind this." "I have the artifact." "I'm on my way." "Good." "See that it gets here intact." " Irina." " He traded her the missiles." "Marshall accessed the launch protocol, but he can't shut them down." " She's in Hong Kong preparing a strike." " We have to stop her." "Dad, you're not going anywhere." "Ready the transport." "Listen to me." "Dad, you have been shot in the chest." "The medical team is on their way." "I can't risk moving you." "Right?" "Vaughn... get the transport ready." "Wait." "Vaughn..." "Wait." "Vaughn, wait!" " What are you doing?" "You can't go." " Sydney." "Sydney." "Your mother's not the type to make empty threats." "If she's acquired missiles, she intends to use them." "You can't even stand up straight." "How do you expect to confront Mom?" "I'm not coming with you." "Sydney, you have to go to Hong Kong." "There's no other way." " I am not leaving you here." " Only you... can get to Irina in time." "You're the only one who can beat her." " I can't." " Yes, you can." "I never wanted this life for you, you know." "I never wanted you to bear this kind of... responsibility, but you... you were a very difficult little girl." "You... you were far too driven, far too strong, to let someone like me stop you from becoming who you are." "Dad, the medical team is coming." "If you'll just sit tight..." "Sydney, listen to me." "There's no one in this world... that can do the things that you can do." "I can hold out until help arrives." "But you have to go." "You have to stop your mother." "OK, I'm gonna... just, um..." "OK." "Good." "Just, uh... keep applying pressure, please." " You... you can't afford to lose more blood." " Just get moving." "I love you, Dad." "I love you, Sydney." " I don't want to leave you here." " Go." " Did everything go according to plan?" " Your daughter arrived, mucked things up." "Sloane's dead." "And we lost the tomb." " The artifact's intact." " There's a reason my fees are so high." "Sloane's death doesn't change our agenda." "Contact Controls." "As soon as the satellites are down, launch the missile strikes." " Have you decided on the final targets?" " Washington and London." "Right away." " What's your status?" " Mil-Sat 1 hit atmosphere." "The rest of the satellites are right behind it." "Initiate the countdown." "Oh, my God." "They've started the launch." "So that's it." "That's the Horizon, isn't it?" "You shot the man I loved, you betrayed my trust," "you risked my daughter's life, all for that." "I don't expect you to understand." "We're very different, Sydney." "You still cling to naive ideals." "I learned at a very young age, the only currency worth anything in this world is power." " And the Horizon gives you that." " You never saw Rambaldi for what he is." "You dismissed his work as the labor of a madman." "You blind yourself to his true potential." "I've spent a lifetime acquiring power." "With this..." "I don't ever have to give it up." "Rambaldi is alive, Sydney." "Through him, we can live forever." "I offered you an out." "I gave you your daughter." "I was hoping you'd settle down, leave me to my affairs." "You don't know me very well, do you?" "Sadly, I think I do." "After all, I'm still your mother." "That doesn't mean anything." "Not anymore." "I am through being disappointed by you." "I hate that it's come to this." "I suppose it had to." "I've come too far to let anything get in my way." "Then you'll have to go through me first." " You wanted to see me, sir?" " I've reviewed your evaluations at SD-6." "To a letter, they're nothing short of exemplary." "I've upgraded your clearance, and I'm considering promoting you to field officer." "Really?" "I want to know that you have given this job its proper consideration." "I know you have a romantic notion of the espionage trade, but this job is more than just brush passes and dead drops." "You'll be facing life-and-death situations on a regular basis." "Do you understand?" "You'll be forced to make decisions that will haunt you for the rest of your life." "This job requires sacrifice, and you need to know that you are able to live with that." "I can, sir." "For as long as I can remember, I have been searching for what I'm supposed to do, for what I'm supposed to be." "This is my purpose." "It's in my blood." "It's who I am." "I have never been so sure of anything in my life." "Why are you fighting me on this?" "The defense satellites are destroyed." "The stars will fall from the sky." "Even if you manage to beat me on this rooftop, it's still too late to stop the launch." "You think I came here alone." "Sir." "Beginning final preparations." "Excellent." "Proceed accord..." "It appears we have a predicament." "You did it." "You were right all along." "Nadia." "I will never forget your sacrifice." "I promise." "The Horizon is gone." "Your mother is probably dividing up my spoils as we speak." "Then we should get moving." "We don't have to hurry anymore, Nadia." "We have all the time in the world." " Give me the override codes." " I don't have the codes, I swear." "Aagh!" " You shot me!" " And I'll keep shooting you until you either give me the codes or bleed to death." "Your choice." "You know, I didn't want any of this." "Mass extermination isn't exactly my passion, Michael." "But this is..." "You know, I simply wanted to come out on the winning end." "I'll give you the codes." "But you have to let me go after." "Codes first, then we negotiate." "Three, nine, eight, Alpha, four, Tango, six, four, seven." "Come on, come on, come on, come on!" "Launch aborted!" "I'm afraid I can't allow you to be such a complication in my life any longer." "For whatever it's worth, I truly do love you." "I owe you an apology, Arvin." "I never gave your faith in Rambaldi the credit it deserved." "There's no need to apologize, Jack." "You're a practical man." "I always admired that in you." "Jack, I didn't wanna shoot you." "Sydney forced my hand." "Yes, she can be very..." "stubborn at times." "You're dying." "I can help you." "I don't want your help, Arvin." "You've caused my daughter so much pain." "I could have prevented it." "I won't continue to make that mistake." "I think you've overestimated your position, Jack." " You can't hurt me anymore." " True." "But I can keep you down here with me." " What are you doing?" " You beat death, Arvin... but you couldn't beat me." "The glass won't hold you." "Mom, you need to come back." "Mom, you can make it." "Give me your hand." "I'm sorry, Sydney." "Mom, come back!" "Nadia?" "I can't move." "I don't think there's anything I can do." "I can't move." "Well, as you said, you have all the time in the world." "Unfortunately, I think you'll have to spend it here." "At least you're here with me." "No." "No..." "No, no." "No!" "No, Nadia, don't leave me here!" "No, Nadia!" "No!" "Daddy!" "Uncle Dixon!" "Isabelle!" "How are you, sweetie?" " Deputy Director." " Please." "This far from Langley, you can just call me sir." "Good to see you." " Have a hard time finding this place?" " Are you kidding?" "I had an impossible time finding this place." "Well, I guess that's sort of the point, right?" " Hello, stranger." " Hello, Sydney." " Oh, and this must be..." " Jack." "Hello, Jack." "Marshall sends his best." "He wanted to tag along, but Carrie's at home on bed rest." "Another baby?" "God, I don't know how she does it." "This makes four - all boys." "Well, come on inside." "You'll just have to pardon the mess." "Speaking of mess, you promised to finish unpacking your toys before dinner." " Go on." " Go on." "Can I get you something to drink?" "Why do I get the feeling this isn't a purely social call?" "Truth be told, I could use some field assistance." "A merc team hit the national research facility in Paris yesterday." "I need someone to intercept the seller and retrieve the hard drive." "Can't you put Rachel on it?" "She's on assignment in Santiago." "I can't risk pulling her." "Besides, this job has sentimental value." "Sark." "Don't look at me." "You're the one that let him go." "We've already prepared the mission specs." "Low-risk insertion." "Simple alias." "Who knows, could be fun." "That's what you say every time you show up on my doorstep." "Next thing, I'm jumping over canals in three-inch heels while napalm explodes." "Yes, that's how I define "fun. "" "Why don't we finish this conversation after dinner?" "And you haven't lived until you've seen our sunset." "Hey, Isabelle." "Isabelle, come on." "We're going for a walk." " What have you been doing back there?" " Nothing, Mom." "Bad robot!"
