All language subtitles for Alias S04E14 Nightingale_Track02

On behalf of the central
intelligence agency,

a grateful nation thanks you
for your father's sacrifice.

This star on the wall
is in some ways

too small a gesture.

Bill Vaughn dedicated
his life in service

and commitment
for his country.

His death in the line of duty

is a tragedy for his loving wife
and his young son.

Aah!

Did you see
the front page?

Yeah. Here you go.

Thank you.

So laughton called me back
from CIA archives.

About nightingale?
Yeah.

When?

Yesterday morning.

Why didn't you tell me?

I was going to.
He didn't find anything.

We'll keep looking.

I should get dressed.

There could be
a hundred reasons

your father didn't register
nightingale with the CIA.

Yeah, I know.

Listen, have you seen
my jacket anywhere?

It's a setback,
but there are people

we can talk to.
No, no, there aren't.

Keys. Where the hell
are my keys?

We could bring it
to a.P.O.

They might be able
to help us track --

the last thing I want is sloane
knowing I was investigating

my father's death and him using
that against me.

We don't know
your father's dead.

Yeah. At this point, I do.

After all the progress
you've made, how can you just --

how can I just what?
What have I got?

Some journals in his handwriting
that shouldn't even exist?

And a word. One word.
Nightingale.

What the hell does that
even mean?

Some random woman
mentioned it to me.

I would have been
better off

asking for the goose
that lays golden eggs.

It wasn't
some random woman.

She was the woman
who raised Nadia.

I want to get to the bottom
of this as badly as you do.

We always thought my mother
killed your father,

but what if we were wrong?

What if there was
some other plan?

Do you have a minute?

Certainly.

I need to ask a favor.

I was wondering if I could
use your level six clearance

to look at some files.

In reference to what?

They're not for me.
They're --

it's for Vaughn,
actually.

I see.

A month ago,

Vaughn found a journal
that belonged to his father.

The entries ended in 1982.

Mom killed bill Vaughn
in '79,

but we authenticated
the handwriting.

That proves nothing.

Counterfeit artists are
experts at graphoanalysis.

I know, but it doesn't
explain nightingale.

What's nightingale?

Vaughn followed a lead
in the journal

that took him to a woman
in Lisbon

who knew all about
Vaughn's dad --

that he rescued
Nadia when she was a baby.

She said that shortly
after that

he left
looking for nightingale.

It could be a code name,
it could be an operation.

I know I'm asking
for a lot.

But I understand
what Vaughn's going through.

You also know how dangerous
that search can be.

Yeah, I do.

Thank you.

I appreciate you
trusting me with this.

It seems like we haven't
really talked since --

mom died.

Feel free to come to me
anytime.

Looks like you have
an audience.

Not bad.

Nightingale
is the brainchild

of Dr. Josef vlachko,

Russian émigré we recruited
into d.A.R.P.A.

He vanished 25 years ago
after running tests

on human subjects.
Nice guy.

When he left, he took
all the records

of project nightingale
with him.

That's why you couldn't
find anything.

D.A.R.P.A. Had to cover up
the security breach.

So if we find vlachko,

we might find something
on my dad.

Hans Dietrich,
German money launderer.

Last year he started
branching out

into higher-risk
investments,

mainly new weapons systems.

He funneled
over a million Euros

into an encrypted
bank account

labeled "nachtigall" --
nightingale.

Dietrich's office
is located in Munich.

He runs a beer hall
on the ground floor.

If we can get
to his records,

we might be able
to find a lead --

something on vlachko.
Who knows?

Syd, how'd you get
all this?

My dad.

What?

He has clearance --

did you tell him everything?
I had to.

How much do they know?

Uncertain.

Apparently there were journals
we couldn't account for.

Hmm.

Well, this should
shut them down.

We could turn this
to our advantage.

Let Sydney and Vaughn
obtain intelligence for us.

I see.

And you have
no problem with that?

Of course I do.

But given our current
obstacles,

they might provide a lead
we couldn't get on our own.

All right, Jack.
Give them a long leash.

But just so we're clear,

we cannot afford
to be compromised,

not even by your daughter.

It won't come to that.

No, I'm fine, thanks.
Don't help.

Ah, boo-hoo.

"I'm gonna go up north
and drink wine for two days

while my friends
stay here and work."

It's called accumulated
vacation, man.

You use it or lose it.

So you'll water the plants,
and you'll send out --

Sydney, go.
Have a good time.

You know what? We could actually
drive up and meet you guys.

We're busy.
Yeah.

You got to eat. One meal.

Yeah, that's what
room service is for.

Don't mind him.
Have fun.

We're crazy this weekend
anyway. We got plans.

You know, we're doing
the, um, there's that, uh...

Yeah.

That's Dietrich.

He's with his bodyguards.

On the right is Dietrich's
second-in-command,

Carl goedde.

This'll be fun.

No toys from Marshall.
Cell phones instead of comms.

Yeah. Now all we have
to do is get Dietrich alone,

convince him to show us
his files on nightingale.

I can get him alone.

Ja.

They're getting the check.
They're almost out the door.

Okay, okay,
I'm almost there.

Olga.

Komm mit mir.

Yeah?

Hey, man, quick question.
Eric, this is
a really bad time.

Where are you?
Is that a party?

Look, I'm gonna have
to call you back.

Romantic getaway's
going that good, huh?

Braids, fishnets.
It's pretty spectacular.

Somebody's getting
lucky tonight.

Bye!

Where do you keep
your financial records?

What?
Your business files.
Where do you keep them?

God! On my computer!

Show me, or I'll break
your neck.

I will.

Please don't hurt me.

The guys down here
are getting pretty antsy.

How you doing?

Give me 30 seconds.

Uh,
Mr. goedde? Enacio maldini,

europol liaison,
organized crime unit.

We've received complaints --
don't tell me.
Take it up with our lawyers.

We have, and unless you want
my entire office

down here tomorrow,
you'll listen to me.

Low wages, no overtime,
rampant sexual harassment.

What? Sexual harassment?

Auf wiedersehen.

Okay, try it now.

It's there.

It's encrypted.
It's gonna take a while.

Yeah, well,
as long as it's in there.

Hello?

Say it's weiss.

What?

Tell your girlfriend
that it's weiss

if you want to know
about your father.

Weiss.

You got lucky in Munich,

but nightingale
won't answer your questions.

Only I can.

Sherwood library.
Ucla campus.

Get there in an hour.

The library will be closed,

but the side door
will be open.

Yeah, you know what?
I'll see if I can.

What I have
is for you alone.

If you tell
your girlfriend,

she'll be dead
by the time you get back.

Okay,
I'll talk to you later.

What's going on?

Um, nothing. He just
wanted to grab a burger.

You should go.
I'll work on this.

Besides, if weiss
gets suspicious...

Yeah, yeah, okay.

You want anything?

No, thanks,
I'll grab something later.

All right. I won't be long.

Take your time.

Tell weiss I said hi.

I will.

Yeah?

"Through
the looking glass."

The illustrated edition.

You've got to be kidding me.

Listen, if you think
I'm gonna inject myself,

you're out of your mind.

If I wanted you dead,
I'd kill you right now.

You want to know
about your father?

I give you two minutes
to do the right thing.

I traced Sydney
and Vaughn's movement.

They went to Munich.

What did they find?

Undetermined at this point.

Jack, the plan was to let
Sydney and Vaughn

open doors
that we couldn't go through

and to pull them back
if they got too far.

I don't see much here
in the way of containment.

We have an option.

I can go to Sydney,
engender her trust,

convince her to bring
the case to a.P.O.

Hmm.

No, she's too intuitive.

Considering
your relationship,

she'll see right through you,
through us.

No, she won't.

I know exactly
how to approach her.

Hello?

It's me.

Dad, hi.

I realize this is
short notice,

but I was wondering
if you'd join me

at miceli's this evening.

Um...

Is it bad timing?

No. I --

hey, I was just hoping
you might be free for dinner.

I'll meet you there
in 30 minutes.

See you there.

Mr. Vaughn.

Welcome back.

Don't worry.
It's temporary.

The paralysis
should wear off

in about 4 minutes,
20 seconds.

Might sting a little, though.
You know, the re-entry.

Who are you?

A man that could tell you
about your father.

But first what I want.

That intel you stole
from Dietrich

will lead you
to nightingale.

What I'm interested in
is the transforming coil

inside nightingale.

Are you out of your mind?

I'm not the one
who injected myself

with an unknown substance.

So now that we've established
your desperation,

it's a matter of how far
you're willing to go.

Why should I believe
anything you say?

Phillip Burke.

B-u-r-k-e.

Who's that?

You look him up.

And when you're done,
you contact me.

One time only.

Make it count.

Thanks for coming.

I took the liberty of ordering
a bottle of Pinot noir.

Okay.

You look very nice.

Thank you.

So...

Yes.

Everything okay?

It's fine.

How's your investigation
going? Vaughn's father?

It's complicated,
actually.

You found something?

The intel on the hard drive
makes it seem like

nightingale
is an active project.

Active?

Vlachko was running it out of
an abandoned nuclear reactor

in Siberia.

He's Jerry-rigged
enough nuclear power

to drive what he needs.

For what purpose?

I'm not sure exactly,

but the experiments
are molecular.

They're altering human DNA.

There was a list of over
a dozen human test subjects.

All of them died.

There's mention
of the genetic markers ad9,

but I don't know
what it all means.

Sydney, you have
to bring this to a.P.O.

Not until I talk to Vaughn.

Vaughn doesn't know that people
may be dying because of it.

I gave you level six clearance
because I trusted you.

I'm asking you
to trust me now.

Bring this to a.P.O.

If you really want
to find answers,

use the resources
a.P.O. Can provide.

You have to discuss this
with Vaughn first.

I respect that.

But the longer you keep this
off-book,

the worse this will look
for both of you.

The only way to proceed
is honestly, above board.

Promise me
you'll tell Vaughn that.

I promise.

She told you this?

Yes.

For 20 years, Josef vlachko
has been off the grid.

Now we find him through
Sydney, of all people.

Well, I have to hand it
to you, Jack.

I never thought
that you would be capable

of exploiting
your own daughter.

I certainly couldn't
do that.

I could have a strike team
on the ground in Siberia

in 72 hours.

That's a foolish
course of action.

Vlachko's our strongest
lead to Yelena derevko.

With this intel,
we need to act quickly.

Sydney cannot know that
I've betrayed her confidence.

We wait for her
to bring this in.

And if she doesn't?

She will.
I asked her to.

When she does,
we'll draw up

an ops plan requiring me
to go along on the mission.

Once there,
I'll interrogate vlachko

without Sydney or Vaughn
knowing.

If our assumption
is correct,

vlachko is communicating
with Yelena.

Once you've completed
the interrogation,

he needs to be eliminated.

That's a little extreme,
don't you think?

No, I consider it
a necessary precaution.

He could alert Yelena
to our agenda,

or even worse,

he could talk to Sydney,

which would be a disaster.

Unless, of course,

you want to destroy
everything we've worked for.

"Phillip Burke killed in Laos.

10/21/79."

They're identical.

His name's Phillip Burke.

CIA black ops agent
killed in Laos

the exact same date
my father was killed.

The autopsy reports show
that Burke was shot

with a makarov pistol,

the exact same make
and model your mother used

to kill my father.

And there's more.

Dental records.

The ones on the left
are Burke's,

the set on the right
are my father's.

Oh, my God.

I mean, we've always thought
your mother killed my father,

but what if she killed
Phillip Burke instead?

How would the CIA --
how would anyone --

and someone wanted the world
to think bill Vaughn died

and replaced him
with Phillip Burke.

Vaughn, where did you get
this information?

That phone call from before --
it wasn't weiss.

I went to see a guy
named Roberts.

I made a deal with him
because he said

he had information
about my father.

I can't believe
you didn't tell me.

Syd, he said he'd only talk
if I came alone.

I don't care.
What you did was crazy.

Yeah, and it paid off.

This guy knows more,
and he'll tell me.

In return for what?
He wants me to give him
nightingale.

Some transformer coil.

We don't even know
what nightingale is yet,

and you want to just
hand it over?

We're just gonna shut down
the testing.

We're not gonna hand over
the entire program.

Just a part of it. Syd, we do
missions like this all the time.

Not on our own.
Not rogue.

My father wants us to bring
this in to a.P.O.

You talked to him again.

Yeah, well,
your father and sloane

will never let me keep
technology like this for myself.

And besides,
I don't trust them.

I don't trust anybody --
except you.

Then what do you suggest?

We come clean with a.P.O.
Like your father wants,

we drop a mission
that'll get us nightingale,

and then we run
a countermission.

Like the old days.

Our stated goal
is to retrieve the coil.

But instead we keep it
for ourselves.

The only problem is, there's
no way we can make a duplicate.

We won't have time
to make a fake one.

So we have a plan "b."

We need
to retrieve the coil

and shut down nightingale.

Assuming you enter the facility
undetected, what then?

Once inside, Vaughn and I
will split up.

I'll recover the coil while
Vaughn takes care of security.

Now, each door in the facility
is key-code operated,

but vlachko operates out of
the security station here.

So I'll subdue him.

I'll override
all the locking mechanisms.

Where the coil's held.
What configuration did you say
the reactor was running?

Rbmk.

Then you'll need two people
to retrieve the coil --

one to ensure the reactor
stays in standby mode

while the other enters
the test chamber

to grab the coil.

Yeah. That's right.

That means you're missing
one man to override security.

Then I'll join the team.
As third man,

I'll access the security
system

while you and Vaughn
recover the coil.

Once the mission is complete,

we can bring vlachko back
for questioning.

If we need a third man,
Dixon is more than capable.

Actually, Jack's experience
will serve you well --

unless there's something
about this mission

that you haven't told me.

No, sounds good.

Home plate, we're in.

Copy, five by five.
Phoenix standing by.

I'm going to
the security room.

We'll meet you back here
with the coil.

The more you cooperate,
the less pain you'll endure.

Sit down.

Sit down!

Shutting down security.

Jack, are you with
Dr. vlachko?

Yes, he's been subdued.

Shotgun, Phoenix,
unlocking the door

to the control room now.

Copy.
Almost there.

Okay, Marshall, we're
at the control panels.

Is the reactor online?

Negative. We can see
the transformer inside now.

All right, open up
the containment shield.

That's where the coil is.

Copy.

Now release the lock
to the test chamber.

We've the chamber
open. I'm going in.

Dismantling
the pressure shield now.

This will take
a couple minutes.

I need information,
and I need it very quickly.

I don't know
what you're talking about.

I know about nightingale.

If you know
about nightingale,

what else
can I possibly tell you?

The location
of Yelena derevko.

Yelena?

Tell me where she is.

I don't know.

Ready to remove the coil.

Where's Yelena?

You worked for her.
You've been in contact.

You couldn't have set this up
without her help.

That was years ago.

I don't have time for this.

Aah!

Vaughn.

Syd, the controls are fried.
Can you get me out of here?

Tell me where she is.
I don't know!

It's coming online now.
Vaughn, bypass
the nuclear fusion switch.

It's on the panel
under the main controls.

I have to run a bypass.

Okay, is there an ethernet
port next to the motherboard?

Yeah.

Okay, plug it in there.

That should give me access
to...

All right, nice.
That did it.

I'm on their server.

Vaughn, fuse the blue
and yellow wire together

to open the door.

All right, Syd,
try the door now.

It's still locked.
Vaughn!

Marshall, I can't bypass
the door.

Sydney's in the room
with the reactor.

Is there another way
to shut down the core?

Only if you remove
the fuel rods.

Marshall, I'm headed
toward the core.

No, no, no. Do not do that.
Exposure to that amount

of radiation could
kill you, okay?

I can slow down the countdown,
buy enough time to corrupt

the reactor mainframe.
Just give me some time.

Take cover!

No, Mr. Bristow,
I see what you're doing.

Don't go in there.
I've almost got it.

I can keep the reactor
from coming online. I can.

It's getting a little
warm in here.

Hang on, I'm working on it.

Marshall, come on.

Okay, almost there,
almost there, almost there.

Got it.
Countdown's slowing down.

Work some magic,
work some magic,

work some magic,
work some magic,

work some magic,
work some magic...

Marshall,
what just happened?

Total system shutdown
due to core corruption.

I did it.

We did it. We --

all right, Marshall,
Marshall,

just free Sydney,
would you?

Oh, right, sorry.
System's in reset.

That shouldn't be a problem.
And free at last.

Sydney.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Plan "b."

I hate this.

Vaughn.

Are you sure?

I love you.

Yeah? Still?

Remember what you promised?

I'll let you know
when I get there.

Okay.

Sydney.

I couldn't stop him.

It was Vaughn.
He took the coil.

I couldn't stop him, dad.

Well, I don't
understand this.

Vaughn assaulted Sydney
and stole the coil?

Yes.

And you believe her?

Vaughn wouldn't go
against us without a reason.

From his father's journals
to this rash action,

someone must be feeding him
information.

A third party
we're not aware of.

Yeah, well, obviously this
complicates our situation.

Yes, I imagine this might be
quite upsetting for you, arvin.

My not anticipating
Sydney and Vaughn's deceit

could be greater
than your own.

Have you thought about how
we're going to deal with this?

Jack?

Hmm?

Are you all right?

Fine.

Just tired.

I'll work up some options
on retrieving

Vaughn and the coil.

♪ Trouble

uh, Mr. Bristow?
Mr. Bristow?

Hi. Listen, I ran
the diagnostics

on the core reactor
shutdown.

Remember,
Marshall saves the day?

Marshall,
this is not the time.

Well, but I re-ran
security protocols,

and I checked them
and rechecked them twice,

believe me, because I
couldn't quite understand --
Marshall, what is it?!

I didn't shut down
that reactor at all.
That's impossible.

No, it isn't.
The printouts --

listen, it is physically
impossible for me

to shut down that reactor
from a remote location.

I mean, given
its particular status,

it would have to be
shut down manually.

But that's impossible, too,
because that would mean

that someone -- that --

I mean, you.

The only way
it could happen

is if you went
into the reactor yourself.

It was my daughter's life.

Between us.
