"Previously on "Alias"..." "We've decrypted the specs on Helix." "Data describes a breakthrough in molecular gene therapy." "It refers to a procedure whereby a patient's face and body are reshaped to resemble someone else." "I've been asked to confirm that you are in position." "Yes." "Everything's in place." "I went shopping, and I saw something." "It reminded me of you." "You bought Vaughn a present?" "Sydney's saying you're wearing suits." "I thought you could always use a new tie." "It's beautiful." "Thank you." "That's very sweet." "You're welcome." " I couldn't take it." " Me either." "I thought I was losing my mind." "Me too." "That was the longest debrief in history." "I was staring at you the whole time." "Did you notice?" "I think my dad noticed, too." "No, he didn't notice." "Why do you think he assigned you the investigation?" "Because it's a big job." "A big deal." "Really?" "Someone unauthorized accessed our computer systems." "I'm gonna find them." "I'm the point guy." "You're the point guy?" "I'm the point guy." "Where are Will and Francie?" "Out." "They won't be back for hours." "You're so beautiful." "Will Tippin may be compromised." "Our superiors deal in absolutes." "Either he is or he's not." "The CIA is on a mole hunt to find out who accessed the defense satellite communications system." "It's a matter of time before they trace it to Tippin and me." "Sloane will want Tippin killed before the CIA interrogates." "Sloane's gone." "Perhaps for good." "We can't wait for his return." "If the CIA uses regression therapy to find out who he's been leaking information to, our Los Angeles asset will be compromised." "I don't want Tippin killed." "I have a meeting with someone who can help us re-acquire the Di Regno heart." "He'll get us plans to the NSA facility where they keep the Rambaldi artifacts." "In the meantime, tell our asset Tippin's frame needs to be convincing." "Tomorrow you'll be asked questions that only Will Tippin can answer." "Places you've been, things you've said and done." "You'll remember some things and forget others." "The more personal the questions, the less you will recall." "In fact, the more you try to recall details, the more elusive they'll become." "Do you understand?" "Yes." "Now listen carefully." "Do not move." "I'm not supposed to tell you this." "What?" "It's supposed to go through channels." "What?" "Oh, it's bad, isn't it?" "An operation based on my analysis went historically wrong." "You passed the upper-level analyst test you took last week." " I did?" " With one of the highest marks." " Congratulations." " You know what this means?" "I heard that Roberts is retiring." "I know." "There's a spot for an analyst." "Which you're now qualified for." " Hands up!" " Hands in the air." "What's going on?" "Who are you?" "FBI." "Mr. Tippin, you are under arrest." " Arrest?" " Who approved this?" "Agent Bristow, do not interfere." "Tippin's being detained on suspicion of espionage." "Espionage?" "Don't say anything until you hear from me!" "Who ordered this?" "Your father." "This is insane." "Will is not a traitor." "Over the last month, we've had two breaches of our satellite communications systems." "The first disabled coverage, allowing Derevko to escape." "The second was a download of our imaging archives." "Specifically the raid on Sloane's villa in Tuscany." "There's no way Will is working for Sloane." "Syd." "Excuse me." "Sorry." "When I ran a diagnostic on the network," "Will's account was active in two places simultaneously." "A glitch which has since been corrected." "Satellite footage was accessed from one of those accounts." "Anyone could have logged on with his I.D." "Or he did it himself." "I have known Will for years." "Trust me on this." "There's another possibility." "That the man we have in custody is not Will Tippin." "Project Helix." "The doubling prototype that you destroyed was designed to reshape physical attributes to identically resemble someone else." "The prototype's database revealed two scheduled recipients of the procedure." "Dr. Renzo Markovic, who was killed, and a second, unknown individual." "You think Will is the other double." "We found Provacillium in Will's car." "It's a medication taken by gene-therapy patients to keep the body from rejecting DNA mutations." "What about giving him an ocular scan?" "That's a really good point, Mr. Vaughn..." "Michael..." "I probably shouldn't call you..." "An ocular scan is often used..." "Tippin's being transferred to Medical Services." "They'll scan him and have the results shortly." "But there's something else." "A digital recording was found among Tippin's things." "It was taken by the surveillance equipment you found in your apartment several months ago." " They think I'm not me?" " They don't know." "Someone breached the system." "They disabled all Wi-Fi access points and reset all user accounts." "It's a witch hunt." "What was that eye scan?" "It's a test." "It analyzes your retina." "Someone who's been doubled develops proteins." "They're like markers." "They found proteins." "Syd, that's impossible." "It doesn't make any sense." "Wait a second." "I was assigned to do research on Markovic." "This must be a setup." "Go in my office." "Everything I've been working on is there." "I'm innocent." "You know that, right?" "Do you remember that time when we had too much to drink?" "The night we kissed?" "It was amazing." "Of course I remember." "In your apartment." "Do you remember where it was in my apartment?" "What room?" "It's a small apartment." "No, I know." "Of course." "It was..." "We were eating." "It was in the kitchen." "Syd." "I spilled something on your sweater." "Do you remember what that was?" "Syd." "I swear it's me." "Pull Tippin's phone records, E- mails." "Get his financials." "Going over the record could lead us to his handler." "Or exonerate him." "He couldn't answer your questions." "Look at the evidence." "I have reasonable doubt." "The information Tippin fed Sloane led directly to Diane's death." "Excuse me." "If someone wanted to set Will up, this is exactly what they would do." "Plant these clues." "Condition him." "I'd like to assign Francie a protective detail." "If Sloane is targeting friends, she could be next." "Done." "I'd also like to speak with her about Will." "She might have information that could help." "Tell her whatever you think is necessary." "Only what's necessary." "I need to know if he's been acting strangely." "What's wrong?" "Forgetting things." "Saying things Will wouldn't." "What?" "Where is he?" "Is he okay?" "Just think about it." "He has been distant lately." "For how long?" "Since the two weeks he spent in Chicago with his family." "Sydney, what's going on?" "There are gonna be some men outside in a van." "They're security." "They're gonna be watching the apartment, watching you." "Protecting you." "Why?" "Syd, you're creeping me out." "I don't work for a bank." "We downloaded intel from Tippin's computer on work he was doing to locate the second double." "He managed to identify the man who invented the computer-imaging equipment used by Dr. Markovic." "This is Dr. Hans Jurgens." "He's a chief scientist at Miracorps." "The largest hospital supply company in the European Union." "His equipment was used during the gene therapy required to complete the doubling process." "A controlling assumption is that he was personally involved." "We think he knows the identity of the second double?" "If the guy we've got isn't Tippin, we can't trust his intel." "At best, it's a dead end." "At worst, it's a trap." "I think it's him." "I'm getting bored with your hunches." "Pardon me." "We move the prisoner to Camp Harris for interrogation." "I'm not letting my friend be taken." "We can't keep letting your daughter's relationships..." "Will's not trained to handle torture." "He'll say anything." "He's not innocent!" "For now, Tippin stays here!" "Five hours ago we acquired surveillance of Jurgens in Berlin." "Contact in-country will meet you at Bendix office building downtown, then brief you on the operation." "Your plane leaves in half an hour." " Man, I'm so..." " Stop." "That's what they recovered from my wife's car after the bomb went off." "That's why we couldn't have an open-casket funeral for her." "Turn the page." "The first fingerprint is your right index finger." "The second is the partial they lifted from the remote detonator we found among your things." "The prints are a match." "You have Sydney fooled, but I'm not gonna play games with you." "You are not Will Tippin." "You can't think that..." "Help me find Arvin Sloane, and I will help you avoid the death penalty." " You have to believe me." " Refuse to cooperate, and I assure you, you will suffer." "Now, when you're done with this act, you will tell me what I want to know!" "I'll prove it to you." "How did we meet?" "Sydney introduced us." "Where?" "It was..." "She had a party." "And there was a bunch of us together." "And I remember what we were talking about." "Dixon, somebody did this to me." "I can't remember." "You murdered my wife." "You murdered my wife." "You murdered..." "Dixon." "Tippin's being transferred to Camp Harris." "I want you to supervise." "Director Bristow decided he's not to be moved." "He's been overruled by D.O. J." "Convoy leaves in 10 minutes." "She what?" "Bristow broke her cover with me." "She told me she's CIA." "Did she give you an explanation?" "Given what's happening, she was concerned for my safety, of all things" "Bristow's willingness to confide in you is an advantageous development that will be lost if Tippin gives you up." "I intercepted a D.O. J. Transmission." "They're moving Tippin to a secure location." "Once he's there, he will be unreachable." "Organize a team to intercept the transport and extract him." "To the CIA, this will confirm his value to us." "And once we have him?" "Kill him." "Have you tried the restaurant upstairs?" "Yes." "The bratwurst is excellent." "Hello, my friends." "We've tracked Jurgens to a local sex club he frequents." "Leather, whips, latex, chains." "All the good stuff." "How long's he gonna be there?" "Could be a couple hours." "I say we move in now." " What?" " Nothing." "I'm glad I'm not in leather." "You'd look cute in a teddy." "Jurgens is with his security team against the wall." "Hello, honey." "Hello, dear." "Who is he?" "Your wife's name is Alba." "How do you know my wife?" "Oh, no!" "Hi, Alba." "Oh, please." "We know about Project Helix." "That you built it for Markovic." "You do?" "We know he used it to double himself and one other person." "With Markovic dead, you're the only one who knows that second agent." "But I do not know." "I assume your wife's e-mail address is still the same." "She's gonna love these pictures." "No, no." "No, no, wait!" "I just built it for Markovic." "I was not there for the procedure." "Your wife is gonna love these pictures to add to your scrapbook." "I do not know the name." "But there is a way you can find it." "The computing power required to model a person's entire genome is tremendous." "So during the doubling process," "Markovic had to be connected to an off-site computer facility." "A server farm." "If you access those servers, you can find the identity of the second double." " Which server farm did he use?" " I do not know." "I swear to God!" "Please do not send those pictures." "Please let me go." "Please let me go!" "Here's your pictures." "Please!" "Give me back my pants." "Please explain this transfer order." "Tippin is stonewalling." "We need to break him before his handlers realize he's been compromised." "Unrestricted interrogation is premature." "Justice department didn't agree." "Tippin is a threat to national security." "Which means they want to be consulted on every decision of this investigation." "What did you think?" "That I just forged the transfer order on CIA letterhead?" "You went behind my back." "Hardly unheard of in this office." "So what is this?" "Retribution for me taking your parking space?" "No, I do what my job compels me to do." "Nothing less." "If you can't see that I'm trying to protect everyone in this operation, then I overestimated your intelligence." "That was Roosevelt Road." "E.T. A... 20 minutes." "Copy that." "Shots fired!" "We got a sniper!" "Move out!" "Move out!" "Wait a second." "Come on!" "Move it!" "Tippin!" "You son of a bitch." "You transferred Will after we agreed to keep him here." "Hey, your father may be my superior, but I am yours." "Who do you think you are?" "My friend may be dead." "Your friend arranged for a team to facilitate his escape." "From a cell?" "He didn't get a phone call." "Syd, I was there." "I saw him." "He fired into the transport." "It wasn't self-defense?" "Would you excuse us, please?" "I know it's not smart to lose my cool with Kendall." "You have to accept the possibility that the man we had in custody was not your friend." "Dad, I don't believe it." "I understand." "'Cause if it wasn't Will then Will is most likely dead." "And I can't handle that." "We received your intel from Berlin." "We're analyzing the list of server farms." "As soon as we have a lead on the facility, you'll know." "Go home." "Get some rest." "I have to admit I was surprised when I was contacted." "The plans, please." "What surprised me is you wanting blueprints to a government storage facility." "Rumor being that you're working with CIA now." "Do me a favor." "Let me know how you plan on doing it." "Doing what?" "Getting past the new access control system." "Because unless you know how to crack it, these blueprints won't do you any good." "Oh, I just can't believe it." "It seems so insane." "I know." "I mean, how is it even possible that someone could look like Will and sound like him?" "I mean, it's just so ridiculous." "Does the CIA have any idea where Will might be?" "I mean, the real Will?" "I'm sorry." "But I'm not authorized to give you any details." "Syd, don't do this to me." " Francie." " Sydney, you're my best friend." "You told me that you're a spy, my boyfriend's a double, and now you're telling me you're not authorized?" "The answer is we don't know." "Syd, it's me." "Will, where are you?" "I didn't escape." "A team hit the bus." "They tried to take me, kill me." "Someone's framing me." "The FBI and CIA both have you on a shoot-to-kill watch list." "You have to tell me where you are." "So Kendall can send me to Camp Harris like a terrorist?" "Not a chance." "I won't let that happen." "If you are Will, you know I will do whatever it takes to make sure that nothing happens to you." "Please let me bring you in." "Syd, I love you." "I can't trust you." "Not anymore." "Meeting you destroyed my life." "You want to help me?" "Prove I'm innocent." "There may be a DNA record of the surgical procedure." "It could clear you." "It's on a server farm somewhere in Europe." "I'm gonna find it." "I promise." "This may be nothing, but Markovic laundered money through real estate." "He had a farm in Marseilles." "Maybe it's not a cow-pig farm." "Maybe it's a server farm." "Marseilles?" "Do you remember where?" "No." "No." "I gotta go." "I gotta go." "Syd, where is he?" "Is he okay?" "I have to go." "No." "Talk to me." "Tell me what's happening." "I can't." "I'm sorry." "Please try to understand." "Sydney Bristow's headed to Marseilles?" "Should I follow her?" "Stay there." "Finding Tippin is your priority." "How did it go?" "The NSA facility uses state-of-the-art locking mechanisms." "We've bypassed systems like that before." "The access codes I downloaded from the CIA Echelon system won't work anymore." "The NSA now uses a time-synchronized key card." "Presumably a CIA agent under the proper duress could obtain such a key card." "I'm about to confess something that will either delight you... which I hope is the case, that would be nice... or it will make you furious." "While you were away, Will Tippin was ordered to Camp Harris for unrestricted interrogation." "They would have found out about our asset." "What did you do?" "I instructed that he be extracted and killed." "I told you I didn't want him killed." "Your asset could have been pulled from the field." "Yes, I know." "But the situation had changed." "Sydney, out of fear for Francie's life, told her she was going to Marseilles to clear Tippin." "Is he dead?" "No." "He's at large." "And believed to have escaped." "Which should provide us leverage to get into the NSA." "If we recover the evidence in Marseilles before Sydney, we can force her hand." "Proof of Will's innocence in exchange for her aid in securing a key card." "We got the forensics report on the detonator we found among Tippin's things." "Will's fingerprint was placed on the trigger after it was wiped down." "Great." "We have evidence that confirms he was being framed." "It'll take hours to get Justice approval to infiltrate the farm." "Take Vaughn." "The two of you will go in tactically." "I'll have Marshall prepare your op-tech." "Kendall's gonna report you." "I'm aware of the consequences." "When the D.O. J. Hears you initiated an op..." "Sydney, I've been doing this longer than you have." "I'm not cut out for management, anyway." "We need to talk." "Yes, I know." "I've been sanctioned by the D.O. J." "I'm no larger in charge of this operation center." "That honor goes to you." "Maybe I'm a slow learner." "I don't understand you." "You maneuvered me out of my job, and now you're handing it back." "I belong in the field." "We can help each other." "We don't have to be adversaries." "I appreciate your magnanimity." "Now you're just mocking me." "Yes." "Part of the reason I sent Tippin to Camp Harris was to protect Sydney." "Why do you think you have your job back?" "Thanks, Mr. Bristow." "Thanks, Sarah." "Keep the change." "It's good to see you, Jack." "I assume that since you're sitting across from me with so little regard for your life," "I'm in the cross hairs of a sniper rifle." "Two of them." "Of course." "I've missed your poker face." "So." "There's something I want you to know." "I forgive you." "Excuse me?" "Your betrayal of SD-6." "I'm curious, Jack." "When exactly did our friendship end?" "The moment you recruited Sydney over my objection." "I thought so." "If I had known that decision would cost me our friendship and my relationship with Sydney," "I would have done things differently." "Self-pity doesn't become you." "Jack, on the contrary." "I'm here to make you an offer." "I don't expect an answer now." "What would that be?" "Come back to our partnership, Jack." "I will tell you everything I've learned about Rambaldi." "An obsession I've never shared." "Well, now's the time to sign up." "For years, I collected his artifacts." "As if that was the point." "I thought Rambaldi's work was the window to the past." "Today, I am one move away from proving to you that it is so much more than that." "And this time, Sydney won't be a pawn in our venture." "Jack, sit here for a while." "Think about it." "We will never work together again." "The thing of it is, you are going to work with me." "Sooner than you think." "The men who have you in their sights have been instructed to put a bullet through your brain if you dial your cell or leave this table within 30 minutes." "We'll see each other again, Jack." "Trust me on that." "The chief of security holds a kill switch that enables him to wipe clean their data storage at any sign of attack." "To prevent the destruction of the information," "I will proceed to the security room and secure the kill switch." "After confirmation, you'll expedite through the facility." "You'll consider everyone hostile." "We'll upload the file on the second double to a server." "Any questions?" "Agent Bristow." "What is this?" "A private club?" "Un Americain." "What?" "Is this Paris?" "Come on, can I..." "Hey, monsieur." "Look, I had a little too much to drink." "It's not a big deal." "Is this the fancy club..." "Oh, I love you, man." "I love..." " Can I come in?" " No, no, no, no." "Now, I know I've had a little too much to drink, but I really just want to come in for a little bit." "I hear it's..." "my friends told me to come." "Come on." "I love you, man." "Oh, come on." "Let me just..." "I just want to go inside the club." "Listen, I love you, man." "No, no, no, no." "I just..." "Please." "Look, please." "I love you, man." "Tout de suite." "All right." "You're so grumpy." "What's your status, Mountaineer?" "I'm going in." "Copy." "We'll move in." "Boy Scout in position." "All teams hold for Mountaineer's signal." "Hello, Sydney." " Help!" " Sydney!" "I know what you're after." "Your friend's suspected of being a double." "You believe these servers could clear him." "No, don't..." "Go, go, go!" "You erased it." "I transferred a copy to a secure location." "I'll give it to you." "In exchange, you do something." "Go to hell." "If you don't, you'll never clear Will's name." "He'll be tried as a traitor and executed." "I'll be calling on you soon, Sydney." "Thanks for coming." "You okay?" "Yeah, I am now."
