Original subtitles

I'm guessing this isn't a personal visit.

No.

Roman vadik.

We need your help.

Nadia, I need you to come back with me.

No.

Sydney...

He was a good friend.

Worked with me.

Vadik killed him.

Had his...

Head shipped back to our office.

But I'll give you what I have.

No one deals with vadik directly.

Everything goes through his lieutenant.

You want to write this down?

No, I got it.

Considers himself a modern samurai.

Arrested five years ago

trying to rob the hasunaga Asian museum in London.

Escaped from police custody.

Among the least of the charges against him.

I hope that helps.

Like tamazaki, they need to be eliminated.

I can't.

I can't.

You do understand?

Yeah.

I made penne. There was --

this cannot continue.

A crucial assumption

of our operational competence is communication!

Sydney, if we don't have that,

every mission, the life of every operative,

could be at risk.

I'm doing my job. No. What you need to do

is find a way to accept what's happened.

If you can deal with arvin sloane --

I love that you knew that, that you approved it.

It may be hard for you to accept that your father

doesn't have the authority

to make all the decisions that --

no, what's hard for me to accept

are the decisions that you do make.

What's hard is looking at you.

Walking past you,

smelling that sickening cologne.

What's hard is being your daughter

and not being able to separate myself

as far as I may get

from the person I despise the most.

You went to see Nadia.

Did you tell her what you know?

I guess I thought

that maybe you'd come here,

I don't know, to give me something,

information --

something that would help make sense

of what I was afraid you'd become,

but there's nothing you could say.

Of course you were only looking out for yourself.

Is that what you think of me as an operative?

That I would reveal your secret

to that poor girl?

I didn't tell Nadia a thing.

Sorry.

What's going on?

It was Lauren who told me.

What?

Told me where to look.

Safety deposit box in wittenberg.

How she knew, I don't know.

I wasn't even going to go.

I had no reason to believe anything that woman said.

But the curiosity was just too strong.

I got there.

Inside the box, there was a file.

Classified. Highest level.

My heart was pounding,

like I knew somehow before I knew.

What was it?

Evidence.

Evidence that my mother had been a security risk,

which wasn't really news.

It mentioned her history with the kgb --

everything we knew.

Then there was a page.

An official request made by my father

asking for the authority to execute Irina derevko.

A request that was granted.

And he did it.

He killed her.

He killed my mother.

He did it, Vaughn.

He killed her.

He killed my mother.

Two weeks ago, the man on the train,

kazu tamazaki, severed ties with all known contacts,

eliminated all means of communication.

Any idea where he's gone of why?

Nothing. Our one link to Roman vadik has disappeared.

Any indication vadik turned on tamazaki?

All chatter says that vadik is status quo.

So tamazaki is still all we've got.

All we had. He's gone.

Back to what we know.

The hasunaga Asian museum in London.

Yeah, Nadia said he was arrested five years ago --

a break-in.

Was there a motive?

He was caught in the shintaro sword exhibit.

Shootout, killed two mps and one of his own men.

What was he doing?

Trying to steal the shintaro sword,

the most famous samurai sword outside of Japan,

wanting to restore honor to the blade

and to his country.

You got to be kidding me.

We may not have the means to contact tamazaki,

but I can see a way

to get tamazaki to contact us.

Are you suggesting we fake a robbery

of the hasunaga?

You think we should steal the sword.

That museum's one of the world's most secure.

If this were my operation,

there's only one man I'd trust

to get us in there.

Hey,

you as depressed as I am?

Depressed about what?

Depressed about what? Take a look around here.

This place is a ghost town.

I don't even know anybody here anymore.

Sydney's gone,

Dixon, Jack, Vaughn.

The only guy we have left is sark,

and that's only because he's in custody.

Hate that guy. I mean, really, kind of scar--

although I did go visit him twice,

just to see a familiar face.

We had eggs.

Don't do that.

Marshall flinkman, you're under arrest

for the misuse of government assets.

Misuse? What? What did I misuse?

Unauthorized computer equipment may be connected

connected? I don't understand. To the monitors you've been provided.

What did I have connected?

Is this yours?

Uh...

It was for a mission. I swear.

I just wanted to download some maps from conquer quest.

I heard they were really good. Of course, the CIA maps

are much better --

am I dead?

You've been recruited.

We're a black ops division, Marshall.

You're going to head up technology.

Uh, Syd...

Sloane is here.

We know.

Okay.

Ha!

Syd.

We're back.

Merlin to team. Great. Way to go, guys.

Stay focused.

They're focused.

Okay, shotgun to Merlin.

Tapping into surveillance.

All right...

Okay, I can see it.

The shintaro sword.

It's a studler matrix system.

What am I looking for?

Okay, studler matrix.

What fuse?

L7.

Copy that. Looping l7.

Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute!

That would be bad. Don't do that.

You need to re-route through e3.

E3 rerouted.

Okay, go to l7.

Copy that. Looping l7.

Okay, the security feed's looped.

Outrigger, something fell down the vent.

Cooney to control.

Right, cooney.

Check floor two, would you? I think I heard something.

No, it's all clear.

You're still good.

Hey...

Good luck.

Thanks.

How cool is this?

Stealing a sword so we can find a bad guy,

you know, in order to catch an even bigger bad guy?

Come on. Come on, you would never

let us do this back in the CIA --

you know, when you were double-breasted

serious robot Dixon.

I mean, not that you --

you were just... Authoritative.

I'm sorry.

Outrigger to base. Eta 90 seconds.

Security cameras are on loop.

So far, so good.

The biggest challenge, hands down,

is that pressure pad on the case.

You know, the marble border.

There's no way to deactivate it.

Super-calibrated.

Phoenix, you've got company.

Tango headed your way. Eta 20 seconds.

Phoenix, abort! Repeat, abort!

I'm almost there.

Phoenix, he's coming. Get out of there now!

I'm almost there.

Damn it!

Phoenix to base. I'm in the east alley.

I need an extraction now!

Find a secondary route. We're at 60 seconds out.

I don't have 60 seconds. I'll meet you at the lz.

I'm going.

Sydney, get in.

Get in now. You can be stubborn later.

Outrigger, this is raptor.

I have Phoenix. Heading to rendezvous.

You know what else typically works in a situation like this?

A simple "thank you." Get down.

You didn't tell her, did you? The truth?

I told her that I was responsible

for the death of her mother.

Did you tell her everything?

She's better off not knowing everything.

Tough call, Jack.

Better that she detest me.

I fear the alternative

would have left her incapacitated.

I assume you have something to sell.

I have the shintaro sword.

Herr Vogel, you never cease to astound me.

An inside job, no doubt, yes?

No matter.

People on the street are impressed.

An incredible job.

My friends are good at what they do.

Let me make a few calls.

It's done.

Good work. Head home.

Dixon put the sword in play.

We can expect to hear from tamazaki within hours.

It's good, isn't it?

Having the team back together again.

Hmm?

Anything?

Oh, uh, hey.

Well, mostly what we already know.

Roman vadik is some serious bad news.

Check this out.

Pakistan -- 500 casualties.

Prime minister of kafiristan

assassinated in broad daylight.

Who's that?

Uh, that's Pablo Martinez.

He's an Argentinean agent.

He was investigating vadik last year.

He was caught. Vadik had him killed.

Yeah.

Martinez was partners with Nadia Santos.

Your sister? Half-sister.

Well, he was the only one who ever saw vadik alive.

I mean, at least on our side.

He wasn't transmitting, was he, when he was captured?

Hey.

I'll make you a deal.

You cooperate with us.

That's it.

You don't frighten me.

Then clearly you're an idiot.

The man you were working for on the train,

tamazaki, he referred to his boss -- Mr. vadik.

But we ran voiceprints.

Yeah, um, an agent was killed last year by vadik,

but his voice --

you know, the killer -- it matches perfectly

with the man on the train.

Tamazaki.

Which means vadik trusts tamazaki enough

to front for him, act on his behalf.

Simple deduction says that if tamazaki trusts you,

you've seen vadik.

Where do we find vadik?

I'll need protective services for this.

You help us, and you have my word.

Vadik.

You had him.

Vadik is tamazaki.

There is no vadik.

It's a cover.

He made him up.

There's no vadik.

Vadik doesn't exist at all.

It's actually tamazaki who's in charge.

We need a new gameplan.

Yes?

Tamazaki took the bait.

We're set for a Wednesday meet in Rio de Janeiro.

He insists that the woman who stole the sword

apparently he has access to police files. He was intrigued.

What about backup? She's allowed one additional.

Good. Jack, you escort Sydney with the sword.

Vaughn, Marshall, you'll support Dixon.

I want a plan by 1800.

Excuse me.

I'd prefer Dixon as my partner.

I'm sure you're aware

of our experience together in the field.

That shorthand could be important.

I've already made my assignments.

You good? Yeah.

As soon as tamazaki makes contact,

we'll I.D. And take out any backup he's got,

then we'll move in, grab him, get on the plane.

Team's in position. Mikes are hot.

We've got full visual. Phoenix, raptor, it's your show.

Copy that, outrigger.

This is the best conversation we've had in weeks.

Merlin, patch this call through my ear piece

okay, Phoenix, you are hot. And I mean that in many ways.

Shotgun, you're in on the call.

Hello?

Look across the square.

You'll see a tunnel.

It will take you to the belly

of the alves building.

Go to the 10th floor.

No backup, no guns. Just the sword.

Meet me in three minutes, or it's off.

Merlin, the alves building. Now listen, this building

was converted into a bank last year.

Shotgun, you're gonna have to look the part.

Okay, we've got wardrobe. Let's do it.

I'm going in -- alone.

I assume you all heard that.

Starting through the tunnel.

Phoenix, meet me at the elevators

before you go up.

See you at the elevator.

Okay, now that tunnel was reinforced

after the earthquake of '44.

We're probably gonna lose comms until --

Shotgun, we've temporarily lost contact with Phoenix.

Merlin, tell me there's a 10th floor in this building.

Guys...

Hello, Sydney Bristow.

The only assumption we can operate on practically

is that Sydney is alive

and tamazaki has some need for her.

So where is she?

Rio was tamazaki's call, not mine. It's his turf.

Meaning he most likely has some sort of base here,

Marshall, does tamazaki's file indicate property holdings?

I already checked.

Nothing. Nothing in Rio, nothing anywhere in Brazil.

We know someone with intel --

the agent who led us to tamazaki in the first place.

Well, my daughter has refused to cooperate.

Still, she gave Sydney tamazaki's name.

If she were apprised of the situation,

she might help.

I'll make her help. Where is she?

Hola?

This is Michael Vaughn. I'm in Rio.

Sydney's in trouble.

Is it vadik?

Vadik and tamazaki are the same person.

Look, we don't know if Sydney's still alive,

but if she is, you're her only hope.

Nadia, please.

Tamazaki used to run an operation

near the catedral metropolitana.

Okay, I'll need details.

Sydney Bristow.

What happened to the deal?

What?

What happened

to the deal?

Before you leave this room,

you will tell me why.

I might.

I'm relatively open-minded.

But in this case, I don't know

what the hell you're talking about.

Have you eaten breakfast?

Why? You want to grab something?

You probably ate breakfast.

Just in case,

we'll wait.

I saw you

standing in the park.

I was looking for the woman

who stole the shintaro, and then I saw you,

and I knew...

This wasn't about the sword.

So now you found out...

About the hit.

Which means you must know why you were spared,

why the job went away.

I told you, I don't know about any hit.

You wouldn't be here if you didn't know about the contract.

What contract?

The contract I had on your life.

You were hired to kill me?

Who hired you?

Sydney...

Assassin/client privilege.

The day before the job, my client was killed.

Most unfortunate...For me.

I swear to God, I don't know anything about this.

Somehow I believe you.

I guess this was just one of those coincidences.

Guess I can just sell you the sword and go home.

I'll just take the sword.

How's that?

Ooh!

So, Nadia, the tranquilizer lips --

do you think it was too red? Does Jorge have the key card?

Got it.

I'm in.

You'll be okay.

Nadia.

Sydney!

Where's Sydney?

She went that way.

I was told you were good.

Who hired you?

Who put a contract on my life?

Who hired you?

Ha ha.

Derevko.

Irina derevko.

Congratulations.

We recovered the isotope,

we've eliminated a dangerous enemy,

and the British government is most grateful

for American assistance in returning the shintaro sword.

I would also like to announce

that Nadia has accepted my offer to join a.P.O.

I know that she can rely on your full support

in the days and weeks ahead.

So, that's it.

Go home.

Feel good about what you've done.

How did you find out?

Tamazaki.

He had the contract.

You didn't know?

I merely knew your mother had hired someone.

I didn't know who.

I had only one way to stop him.

Why would she want me dead?

I don't know.

You killed her to save me.

You killed mom

to save me.

I'll see you tomorrow.

See, I just -- I don't see it.

You working in a bank?

Come on, what kind of job is that, you know?

Cashing checks and making change.

"Excuse me, next in line, please."

I'm a loan officer.

I travel. Service accounts.

Wait a minute, the cover job you had for SD-6?

I happen to be good at it. Great.

That's stimulating stuff. Watching someone else's cash.

Syd, come on, seriously, since you left the spy biz,

you are a bore. It's an adjustment, is all.

Are you sure you don't want to stay for dinner?

I'd love to, but I gotta save the world.

See ya.

Bye.

Hello.

Hi.

I'm, uh, Eric weiss, 38, single.

Nadia.

How are you?

Good. Is this a bad time?

Not at all. Nadia, this is Eric.

He was just leaving.

No, no, no. I can stay.

Or go. Nice to meet you.

You too.

Hey.

What's going on?

I just couldn't wait.

Even until tomorrow.

I was hoping we could talk about our mother.

Did you bring your passport?

Our mother was killed.

I found her body in a state medical facility.

I identified her, paid for her release.

Made arrangements with a mausoleum

in moscow three blocks from where she was born.

I thought she'd want it that way.

And you have no idea who was responsible,

who killed her?

No.

I swear to God,

somehow I will find out

who did this to our mother...

And I will kill him.

I will.
