All language subtitles for Alias S02E07 The Counteragent_Track02

CIA profile --
agent Sydney Bristow.

Okay, I'm in.

Agent Bristow works undercover
with her father Jack Bristow,

also a double agent with CIA.

Get down!

I guess we'll just have
to learn to trust each other.

Bristow's CIA contact --
Michael Vaughn.

My guardian angel.

Her current assignment --
to infiltrate and destroy SD-6,

a secret organization
dealing in espionage,

extortion, weapons sales,
posing as the CIA.

SD-6 has made
over $400 million

in arms sales alone.

SD-6 director --
arvin sloane.

The sanctity of this agency
requires the sacrifice

of some personal freedoms.

This is not about
cutting off an arm

of the monster.

This is about killing
the monster.

Bristow's mother,
formerly Russian intelligence,

recently turned herself in
to the CIA.

Mom?

Intel indicates she may still be
an enemy of the United States.

The true loyalty
of agent Bristow's mother

remains unknown.

Previously on "alias"...

I could pay you
to do research.

All I need you to do is find out
if any of these questions

ever appeared
on a standardized test

in the United States
over the last 20 years.

Thank you.
You're welcome.

Five weeks ago,
you infiltrated

one of your mother's
laboratories in taipei,

where you discovered
a rambaldi device.

We believe the device
is the source of the virus.

Unfortunately,
you and agent Vaughn

may have been exposed.

We'd like to draw some blood
and keep you under observation.

Agent Bristow, your tests came
back negative for antibodies.

You're free to go.
Agent Vaughn,

your tests at this point
are inconclusive.

You tested
patient zero's blood

at the first sign
of infection.

What was the sign?

Hemorrhaging
from the fingernails.

This is
Dr. Nicholas calling.

Thanks for getting
back to me so soon.

The thing is, I think
I have a problem.

I know you're worried,

but we ran every available
diagnostic test

for viral infections.

Everything that could be
related to your exposure

to the fluid
inside the rambaldi device,

they all came back
negative.

Yes, I know.

Under my fingernails,
there's blood.

Okay, here's what we're
going to do.

The virus isn't airborne,
but as a precaution,

I'm going to send
an isolation unit

to bring you in.

Don't send anyone.
I'll come to you.

But first there's someone
I need to see.

See them later.
Right now you stay put!

I know what you did
for me --

proving Sydney's father
betrayed her in Madagascar.

I would have been
executed for that.

Thank you.

I didn't do it for you.

While that might be true,

I owe you my life.

You owe me
my father's life.

In cap ferrat,
I saw khasinau

experiment on people
who'd been exposed

to the liquid
from inside the red ball.

I want to know what he learned
from doing that.

If he found a cure?

Yes.

I know the terms are you only
cooperate with Sydney,

but this disease,
it works quickly.

I don't have much time.

You're the one who's sick.

Yes.

Tell me how you feel
about my daughter.

That's none
of your business.

Are you in love
with her?

I don't know
why that matters to you.

I don't have the advantage
of observing casual behavior.

I'm curious.

Help me,

and I'll tell you
what you want to know.

Okay, tell me
if this sounds weird.

I mean, can we talk here?

Hang on.

Bug killer in case
anyone's listening.

Seriously?
In a lipstick?

What were you gonna say?

I look up 20 years
of standardized tests

to see if any of those
I.Q.-Type questions

Vaughn's interested in
were used.
And?

They weren't, at least in none
of the tests I looked up,

but there was a year missing,

and the educational
testing service didn't have

a hard copy or a disk.

I mean, it is like
1982 never existed.

Maybe someone had a reason
to make it disappear.

You've got to try this
bouillabaisse that I'm making.

Here.

What do you think --
too spicy,

too salty?

Perfect.

I'll be done
in, like, two minutes.

Okay, great.

So it's weird, right?

There was an operation
called project Christmas.

My father developed it.

It used standardized tests,
asking specific questions

to identify children
the agency could later recruit.

Children?

It was an experiment.

The kgb sent my mother here

to steal details
about the program.

About that time,
the CIA stopped the operation.

Vaughn thinks
maybe Russian intelligence

is still running it
to recruit Americans.

Hello?

We need you at operations.

I'll tell francie
you said goodbye.

Hey. What's up?

It's Vaughn.

He's developed symptoms.

What symptoms?

The doctor said
we were fine.

Yes, but his exposure
was far more extensive.

He's developed some kind

of a blood coagulation
disorder.

Do we --
are you sure that it --

we're sure.

Where is he?

He came to see your mother
about an antidote.

Shortly after leaving
the facility, he collapsed.

Is there an antidote?

Yes.

It can be found
in paldiski.

It's a former
Soviet training base

for nuclear submarine
personnel.

Who operates the base now?

When Estonia
gained independence,

the local authorities
graciously accepted

our offer to take over
the facility.

I can tell you
where it is

in the facility,
but even if you can get it,

I can't guarantee anything.

This antidote sounds
almost as dangerous

as the infection.

If derevko's telling us
the truth...

Which is a valid question.

Then the serum
is a blood derivative,

meaning you can't just
go get the medicine

and inject it
into the sick patient.

How would something
like this work?

You need blood
from the patient --

the equipment that manufactures
the serum reads the blood

and creates a custom
genetic-specific antidote

for that particular
patient.

I'll need to take
some of Vaughn's blood with me.

Yes.

This is agent Chapman.

He'll be running
the op from here

while your father
leads the team

into paldiski.

According to derevko,
the antidote is located

at three separate
decontamination stations

within the former
nuclear facility.

We'll launch a zodiac
a couple Miles up the coast

and drop you in
as close as we can.

The plane's ready.

You can spec out
the mission in flight.

You've got 30 minutes
with Vaughn, maybe less.

How much time
does Vaughn have?

There doesn't seem to be
a consistent pattern,

but the virus could
act quickly.

Are we talking weeks, days?
Just tell me.

Given his level
of exposure, three days

would be my guess.

I'll buy time for us
with sloane.

Go.

Hi.

I talked to my mother.

There's an antidote.

I'm going to go get it.

Getting the serum?

Nah, it'll be easy.

But I need to take some

Vaughn!

He's bleeding internally.

Shall we prepare for
a lavage?

Yes. Have you called
the blood bank?

They've already typed
and crossed

for six units
of packed rbcs.

Did you reach Dr. Simon?

He's not on call,
but Carlson is on his way in.

Wait, wait, wait.

Wait a minute, wait a minute,
what's going on?

Is he going to be
all right?

We don't know,
but you have to wait here.

Your designated cover --
you're with

the state department's
bureau of arms control.

Your name is Rita Stevens.

Give no details
about his illness.

Excuse me...

Did they tell you
anything?

No.

The paramedics called.

"What was his last meal?"

"Is he allergic
to any medication?"

I got to the hospital
as fast as I could.

So, you work with Michael?

Yeah.

We're in the same bureau
at state.

I'm Rita.

I'm Alice.

I'm listed
as his emergency contact.

I'm Michael's girlfriend.

Excuse me.

♪ Slumber, thy mother
will guard thee tonight ♪

I was contacted
by an informant in baku.

He indicated that the triad
has set up a listening post

near the Armenian border.

I took the liberty
of assigning

the recon op to Sydney.

I'll be on the next plane
myself.

I went ahead
with the exhumation.

I opened Emily's grave.

It was empty.

Have you checked
with the funeral home,

detailed a forensics unit
to the gravesite?

I saw her, Jack.

Maybe. You can't be sure.

Emily's alive,
and she knows what I did.

So I am dead to her.

If the alliance
finds out about this

from another source --

I just got off the phone
with cristophe.

I told him that someone
was trying to make it look

like I faked Emily's death
in order to secure my position.

It was the smart play.

I'm not so sure.

Even if they believe me,
the timing might make it seem

like I was looking
for an excuse

for my recent performance.

Are there concerns?

Since I was made a partner
in the alliance,

SD-6 has consistently
stumbled in its operations.

We lost the terahertz
wave camera.

We failed to retrieve
the formula

for zero-point energy.

We didn't acquire derevko's
operations manual.

The situation
regarding Emily

has been a distraction.

Informing them puts these
setbacks in context.

Cristophe wants me
to meet with him in Tokyo.

I need a victory, Jack.

I need to bring something
tangible to the organization.

We have an asset
in custody downstairs

who is familiar
with derevko's operation.

I suggest we take
advantage of that.

As the virus progresses,

it causes something called
ascending paralysis.

Your nervous system
is being poisoned

from your feet up.

You see, the paralysis
is affecting the nerves

that control your ability
to breathe.

Soon you will suffocate.

Interestingly,
you still have feeling,

but you're paralyzed.

You can still feel
both pleasure...

And pain.

Tell me, where is derevko's
base of operations?

Hmm?

Please...

Aah!

I want a location.

Smila.

Smila.

Hey. Thanks for meeting me.

So I did the work
you asked me to do,

but please don't tell me
you're chasing

some alleged
CIA conspiracy again.

No, I'm just helping out
a friend, that's all.

Well, you can tell
your friend

the questions
he's interested in

weren't on the test
in '82.

Are you sure?

Those ridiculously difficult

spatial relationship
questions --

the ones about
why rainbows occur

and why you have to be
standing behind the sun

to see them --
yeah.

They're not on there.
Sorry.

Huh.

Come on, off the record --
what's this all about?

These are propulsion boots.

You can do 5 knots
with them.

We drop you
100 yards offshore.

You should be at the pier
in under two minutes.

Heckler & koch
p-11 underwater pistol.

Holds five rounds
of tranq darts.

Thing's virtually silent.

Good luck.

I'm at stage one,
outside the facility.

Copy that, mountaineer.
We're standing by.

I just spotted sark.

I don't need
to remind you

to stay out of sight.

Our intel indicates
that to use the serum generator,

you need the security
pass code.

Jack in this computer.

It's got a satellite link

that will let us
get into their system

and provide you
with the code you'll need.

I've got sat link.

You should be
receiving data now.

Roger, mountaineer.
Stand by for the pass code.

2664729.

26647--

wait.

What?

The generators are peripheral
to the main system.

I don't understand.

The machine is connected to
their central security system.

If you try
to generate the serum,

their security system
will be alerted.

Can we circumvent
the system?
Not from here.

Mountaineer, abort the op
and head back.

We'll find another way
to --

abort? We don't have time
to find something else.

If you use the machine,
they'll know you're there.

Then I'll run fast.

You've been ordered
to abort, mountaineer.

Do you copy?

Sir, someone has accessed
the decontamination room.

Agent Bristow,

those pipes are rigged
to disperse

ammonia fluorochloride --

wonderful for decontaminating
metals and concrete.

Not so good
on organic materials,

such as your suit

or your skin.

You and I --

we're destined
to work together.

I truly believe that.

Of course,
any future collaboration

requires my turning
the sprinkler system off.

Notice your suit is already
being eaten away.

I'd give it another
40 seconds.

I could use your help.

I need access
to arvin sloane.

Why?

Because I intend
to kill him.

I can get you to sloane,

but only if you promise
to let me keep the antidote.

No. Sloane first.

Then you'll get back
your precious antidote.

Sark had me taken
to the decontamination room.

He let me go.

I came back here
to Los Angeles.

And sark never asked
who the antidote was for?

No, he didn't seem
to care.

What exactly
did you promise sark?

That I would find a way
to render sloane unconscious

and deliver him to sark.

So he could kill him?

Yes.

There are just so many
problems with this

that I don't even know
where to begin.

Do I need to remind you that
American intelligence agents

you said yourself that
he's in critical condition!

Arvin sloane
killed my fiancé.

I have had plenty
of opportunities

to return the favor,
but I have chosen not to

because yes, I know,
it's not what we do.

It's what he does,

and it's reprehensible,
but we have no choice here.

Vaughn could be dead
in two days!

Well, we'll do our best
to prevent that.

What the hell
would you have done?

You don't collaborate
with the enemy like this!
There is no choice here!

Sydney --
I am not going to do
nothing.

Give us a minute,
would you?

Don't try and convince me
not to work with sark.

That's not what I'm doing.
I'm on your side here.

We can't lose Vaughn.

So what do we do?

We don't go through
Kendall.

Push him, and he'll run it
through channels.

This needs to be handled
quietly.

Sloane is scheduled
to attend

an alliance meeting
in Tokyo.

I'll find out the details
of his itinerary.

My s.T.U. Is not recognizing
my crypto-ignition key.

I need it fixed.

Fine. Do you know
that polar bears

can't be detected
by infrared photography?

Their fur emits no heat.
Nothing. Nada. Zip.

I guess I thought maybe
it would be applicable

to something I --

crypto-ignition key.

I got to do that
from the server room.

Excuse me.

What's that?

Oh, it's one of those
standardized tests kids take.

A friend
from the newspaper

is interested in me
maybe tutoring his kid.

Reading comprehension essay

based on our invasion
of Grenada?

Yeah, you know,
it was weird.

The only test I could download
was from 1982 --

sort of the height
of the Reagan era,

cold war indoctrination.

Well, back when I was
listening to Duran Duran

every single day, my Uncle
was one of the marines

Reagan sent into Grenada.

The invasion was in 1983.

I mean, why would
the department of education

give you a fake test?

How can I get ahold of a copy
of the original test?

For the love of God, will,
have you lost your mind?

I mean, the whole test
is a fake.

I got it from the department
of education.

Abby, Abby, look, I don't know
exactly what this means,

but it could be important.

I spoke to our man
in custody.

All he gave us was a province
in the Ukraine --

smila.

I sent a team there to search
for derevko's headquarters.

So far
they've found nothing.

When do you leave
for Tokyo?

I leave in one hour.

I need you to help me,
Jack.

I need you to get Richter
to talk,

to tell us exactly
where in smila

we could find derevko's
center of operations.

If I go to Japan
without something tangible,

something valuable,

I don't know
what the alliance might do.

It doesn't have to end
this way.

You could be made
very comfortable.

All you have to do
is give us an address.

Smila.

Yes, in the Ukraine.

Where in smila?

All we need
is an address.

Just tell me where the hell
derevko's operation is.

You give me an address now,
you son of a bitch!

Where in smila do we look?

Smila.

Smila is my wife.

And I love her.

I love her so much.

Just kill him.

You said 1982,
right?

There's a serial number --
fyb55l.

Popular test.

Popular?

I got a call once
from someone at ets,

said they were
centralizing their files.

They wanted any originals.

Can you remember
if you put in

any questions
about spatial reasoning?

Why would I do that?

There's no statistical
utility in asking questions

maybe one in 10,000
first graders could answer.

Well, how would you explain
a question like this then?

"How can rainbows be seen?"

"Only when the sun
in behind the observer."

This wasn't in the test
I sent to ets.

I design the questions.

I proof the test booklets
they print up.

And then when they send
the final corrected copies,

I put them on file.

About how many first graders
took this test?

They administered this
in 33 states.

That's over 5 million
children.

Sloane's
on his way to Japan.

He plans to stay
at a yakuza-run ryokan --

the nyoshi ginza.

Use the numbers he gave you
and contact sark.

Tell him
we will hand him sloane

the night before
his alliance meeting.

Tell me you agree
with me

that we have no choice
in this.

Of course we have a choice,

and it's a moment I never
wanted you to face --

to kill someone.

I'm not talking
about self-defense.

I'm talking about
premeditated murder.

To be there when the door
closes on him

for the last time,

knowing
you are responsible.

That is something you never
came close to considering

before getting to know
your mother.

I'm on the grounds.

Good.

My associates just arrived
to meet your father.

Is that the antidote?

Yes.

However, the briefcase
is security-coded

with a secondary system
wired to a remote detonator.

As I expected.

Only Mr. sark
has the security code.

Until I receive word from him
to release the serum,

the case remains closed.

Approaching the building.

Good luck, Sydney.

I don't need you to wish me
luck, you son of a bitch.

That's a wonderful attitude.

Oh...

God, I'm tense.

Not a big surprise.

I saw a man die yesterday.

Do you understand?

Yeah.

He was in incredible pain,

but it was the love
he had for his wife

that sustained him.

I loved my wife, too.

But I had to take action.

No!

You are so good.
Do you know that?

Send the ambulance.

It went well.

Look, when I said
"good luck" before,

I wasn't mocking you.

Call in for your man
to release the serum.

Hand over the antidote.

The security code
is 10-11-92.

You'll stay here
until we've tested it.

It was nice
working with you.

What's happening?

You've been asleep
for 40 hours.

Am I dying?

Almost.

Sydney got the antidote.

The doctors say
your blood levels

are looking good.

How did she do it?

She had sloane killed.

Sydney.

Good morning.

Good morning.

You know Mr. sark.

I don't think we've ever
been officially introduced.

Mr. sark is now cooperating
with us

on our ongoing search
for derevko

and the remains
of her company.

He's cooperating.

This is a strategic alliance,
agent Bristow.

Debrief him.

Take down everything
he knows about derevko,

and we'll see and decide
about what goes on after that.

♪ It's only love

♪ it's only pain

♪ it's the only fear

agent Bristow,
working with you --

don't worry.

I pulsed the bugs.

We can reminisce.

What are you doing here?

How?

I took the ambulance
to a remote location

and then I revived him.

Here's the situation.

Rambaldi's true aim
is a puzzle.

I have certain pieces.
You have others.

Separately, we'll never
solve his mystery,

but together --
together, we cannot fail.

How do I know you have
anything real to offer?

I can prove myself
in two ways.

The first is obvious.

I intercepted communications
indicating that there would be

an assassination attempt
on your life.

Now, as this conversation
proves,

I've prevented that.

How do I know you didn't
plan the attempt

in the first place?

Which brings me to my second
piece of information.

What was on the piece
of paper?

I'm afraid
that's need-to-know.

I got it from here.
Thanks.

You asked me some questions.

I told you I'd answer them
if you helped me.

You did help me,

and I thank you for that.

I didn't do it for you.

I'm trying to live
a normal life,

which was always hard,
given what I do.

But it's gotten harder
since I met your daughter.

It's not that knowing her
hasn't made my life better.

It has.

But it's also made it
that much worse.

I think I've said enough.

The problem, Mr. Vaughn,

is that to the one person
who matters,

you haven't said anything.

Listen, this may not
mean anything to you,

this may not be something
you can understand

or appreciate,
but we have rules --

very clear and important rules
that govern the relationship

between a handler
and his asset.

And between a man
and a woman?

Hi.

Hi.

♪ And I see nothing

♪ I look to you to see truth

thank you.

♪ And I look to you

♪ and I feel nothing

I heard about sark.

Sloane actually brought
sark to the alliance

and presented him
as their new ally.

How did that go over?

Apparently
sark was a big hit.

And thanks to me,

sloane's standing
has never been higher.

I understand you met Alice.

She seems nice.

Yeah. She is.

She's a good person.

We have a lot of history.
We're trying to --

you know, we broke up.

Yeah, you mentioned that.

Yeah.
A couple of months later,

we saw each other
at a friend's, and --

you don't have to explain.

No, I know,
but I want to,

because if things
were the other way around --

seriously...

Don't explain.
