MY NAME IS SYDNEY BRISTOW.
SEVEN YEARS AGO I WAS RECRUITED BY A SECRET BRANCH OF THE CIA
CALLED SD-6. I WAS SWORN TO SECRECY,
BUT I COULDN'T KEEP IT FROM MY FIANCé,
AND WHEN THE HEAD OF SD-6 FOUND OUT,
HE HAD HIM KILLED.
THAT'S WHEN I LEARNED THE TRUTH...
SD-6 IS NOT PART OF THE CIA.
I'D BEEN WORKING FOR THE VERY PEOPLE
I THOUGHT I WAS FIGHTING AGAINST.
SO I WENT TO THE ONLY PLACE THAT COULD HELP ME TAKE THEM DOWN.
NOW I'M A DOUBLE AGENT FOR THE CIA,
WHERE MY HANDLER IS A MAN NAMED MICHAEL VAUGHN.
ONLY ONE OTHER PERSON KNOWS THE TRUTH ABOUT WHAT I DO,
ANOTHER DOUBLE AGENT INSIDE SD-6...
SOMEONE I HARDLY KNOW.
MY FATHER.
IT'S EMILY. SHE KNOWS ABOUT SD-6.
I KNOW. IT'S TOO LATE.
YOUR CONVERSATION WAS RECORDED.
SLOANE WON'T LET THIS HAPPEN.
THEY WON'T KILL EMILY.
THE FINAL DECISION WILL NOT BE MADE
UNTIL AFTER SLOANE HAS MET WITH THE HEAD OF ALLIANCE SECURITY.
AAH!
YOU'RE NOT BRINGING HIM INTO THIS LIFE.
HE IS IN THIS LIFE NOW,
WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT.
YOU'LL BE SAFE HERE.
I PROMISE.
AND IF YOU NEED ANYTHING,
THERE ARE AGENTS WATCHING BEHIND THE MIRROR.
HEY, GUYS, IS THERE A FOOD SITUATION?
IS THERE ANY CHANCE, LIKE,
I COULD MAYBE GET SOMETHING TO EAT?
LIKE A BURGER OR SOMETHING? I'M EASY.
[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]
OH, YEAH. 30 MINUTES OR LESS.
MY EMPLOYER HAS INSTRUCTED ME TO KEEP YOU ALIVE,
BUT NOT COMFORTABLE,
SO I'll ASK YOU ONCE...
WHAT IS THE CIRCUMFERENCE
AND HOW DO YOU KNOW ABOUT IT?
LISTEN TO ME, MAN.
THERE HAS BEEN A MAJOR MISUNDERSTANDING HERE.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE CIRCUMFERENCE IS.
DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?
I DON'T KNOW.
[ DOOR OPENS ]
AAH!
HELLO.
I'M OPENING THE RESTAURANT. WHAT?
SCREW IT. I HAVE TO OPEN THE RESTAURANT.
I JUST DECIDED.
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
I FEEL LIKE I'VE BEEN SITTING AROUND
WAITING FOR MY LIFE TO START.
MY ASS IS ON THAT COUCH, LIKE, 12 HOURS A DAY.
FRANCIE, YOU'RE ABOUT TO GRADUATE FROM BUSINESS SCHOOL.
YEAH, BUT THEN WHAT? I DIDN'T HAVE A PLAN.
HERE'S THE PLAN.
WHERE IS IT... DO YOU ALREADY HAVE A PLACE?
YEAH, IT'S IN SILVER LAKE. I MEAN, I'M NOT EVEN SURE...
[ CELLULAR PHONE RINGS ]
[ RING ]
HELLO.
Sark: SYDNEY BRISTOW.
YES.
I'M CALLING ON THIS LINE
BECAUSE I KNOW IT'S UNTRACEABLE.
LISTEN TO ME VERY CAREFULLY.
WE HAVE YOUR FRIEND, AND WE PLAN TO KILL HIM
UNLESS YOU DO THE FOLLOWING.
THERE'S A DOCUMENT RECENTLY STOLEN
FROM A NIGHTCLUB IN PARIS.
IT BELONGS TO MY EMPLOYER.
NOW, IT APPEARS TO BE A BLANK PAGE.
IT HAS A GREAT VALUE TO HIM.
NOW, HE WANTS IT BACK,
ALONG WITH A CERTAIN CONTAINER OF LIQUID.
I BELIEVE YOU ARE FAMILIAR
WITH THE ITEMS TO WHICH I AM REFERRING.
YES, I AM.
Will: SYD, DON'T LISTEN TO HIM! DON'T DO ANYTHING FOR ME!
YOU'LL HAVE 48 HOURS.
THERE'S AN ALLEYWAY IN TAIPEI
AT HO PING AND RYUIAN.
BE THERE TUESDAY AT MIDNIGHT.
[ CLICK ]
THE CIA HAS THE PAGE KHASINAU WANTS.
SD-6 HAS THE AMPULE.
YOU AND I COULD GET THEM BOTH AND JUST TURN THEM OVER.
WE CANNOT AFFORD TO BLINDLY HAND THE ENEMY
SOMETHING HE WANTS SO DESPERATELY.
I DON'T KNOW THAT MUCH ABOUT YOU.
DO YOU HAVE ANY CLOSE FRIENDS?
I MEAN, PEOPLE THAT YOU LOVE?
I DON'T NEED A LECTURE ON FRIENDSHIP
TO UNDERSTAND WHAT'S AT STAKE HERE.
AND WHILE I MIGHT LOOK AT SCENARIOS
MORE STRATEGICALLY THAN EMOTIONALLY,
YOU COULD LEARN SOMETHING FROM MY EXPERIENCE.
THE RAMBALDI DOCUMENT KHASINAU WANTS...
HE CAN'T MAKE THE INK ON THAT PAGE VISIBLE
WITHOUT THE VIAL OF LIQUID, THE AMPULE.
READING THAT PAGE IS SO IMPORTANT TO KHASINAU
THAT HE RISKED SENDING A TEAM INTO SD-6
TO TRY AND STEAL IT.
YOU WANT TO GET THE PAGE AND THE AMPULE
AND SEE FOR OURSELVES WHAT THAT PAGE IS.
WE CAN'T STRATEGIZE OUR NEXT MOVE
WITHOUT THAT INFORMATION.
GETTING THE AMPULE FROM THE CIA STORAGE FACILITY
SHOULD BE STRAIGHTFORWARD.
IT'S RECOVERING THE PAGE THAT I'M CONCERNED ABOUT.
IT WAS MOVED TO THE SD-6 OFF-SITE LAB FOR ANALYSIS.
THE LAB IS ON A FORMER MILITARY SITE
NEAR SANTA BARBARA. IT'S SURROUNDED BY WATER.
YOU'LL HAVE TO GET IN THROUGH THE DRAINAGE SYSTEM,
AND ACCESS REQUIRES SLOANE'S VOICE I.D. AND FINGERPRINTS.
[ PAGER BUZZES ]
IT'S VAUGHN.
KHASINAU KNEW ABOUT THE SAFE HOUSE.
HE MUST HAVE SOMEONE ON THE INSIDE.
I KNOW.
AS LONG AS THERE'S A MOLE AT THE CIA,
YOU CAN'T TELL VAUGHN A THING.
NOT THAT YOU'VE BEEN CONTACTED OR THAT YOU AND I HAVE SPOKEN.
SYDNEY, I'M SO SORRY ABOUT THIS.
BUT THERE'S NO REASON TO ASSUME THE WORST.
THEY USED TRANQUILIZERS ON THE SECURITY TEAM,
WHICH MEANS THEY WEREN'T OUT FOR BLOOD.
IF THIS IS A KIDNAPPING,
THEY'LL CONTACT US.
I'M JUST SO SCARED FOR HIM.
YOU'LL CONTACT ME IF YOU HEAR ANYTHING.
VAUGHN.
WHAT'S GOING ON?
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
I HAVEN'T KNOWN SYDNEY THAT LONG,
BUT I FEEL LIKE I HAVE, LIKE I KNOW HER
WELL ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT SHE DOESN'T
JUST ACCEPT PROBLEMS, SHE TRIES TO FIX THEM.
SO YOU THINK SHE'LL TRY AND GET HER FRIEND BACK
USING BACK CHANNELS? MAYBE.
AND WHY WOULDN'T SHE TELL YOU?
THE SAFE HOUSE WAS COMPROMISED.
SHE DOESN'T EXACTLY TRUST THE CIA RIGHT NOW. WOULD YOU?
TRUST IS A TRICKY THING.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
I THINK YOU NEED TO FILL DEVLIN IN
ON WHAT YOU'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT SYDNEY.
NOT A CHANCE. MICHAEL...
WHAT, FILL HIM IN ON CONJECTURE?
I KNOW THIS IS A DIFFICULT TIME FOR YOU...
WHAT ARE YOU SAYING? DO NOT LET YOUR CONCERN FOR SYDNEY
GET AHEAD OF YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO THE AGENCY.
ERIC, THAT IS NOT WHAT I'M DOING HERE!
HEY, MY INVESTIGATION'S ON A SCHEDULE.
YOU HAVE AN APPOINTMENT WITH ME. YOU'RE LATE.
YEAH, I DIDN'T THINK YOU'D MIND.
HEY, GUESS WHAT. I DO.
ARVIN, THIS IS BEAUTIFUL.
WHAT DID YOU DO?
DID YOU RENT THIS PLACE FOR ME TO RECOVER IN?
STOP.
YOU'VE BEEN QUIET SINCE WE LEFT THE HOSPITAL.
ARVIN, YOU'RE SCARING ME.

Jack: THIS SHIRT IS MADE OF HEAT-SENSITIVE MATERIAL.
GET SLOANE TO TOUCH IT.
IT'LL TRANSMIT A DIGITAL COPY OF HIS PRINTS,
AND I'll CREATE A LATEX DUPLICATE.
THIS IS A WIRELESS RELAY.
IT'LL LOG ME INTO SLOANE'S COMPUTER
ONCE YOU'RE IN RANGE OF THE TERMINAL.
I'll ACQUIRE THE PASSWORDS,
THEN YOU'LL LEAD THE CONVERSATION.
HE DOESN'T NEED TO SAY THE ACTUAL WORDS.
EVERY WORD IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE
IS COMPRISED OF 44 BASIC PHONEMES.
HE'S LIKELY TO SAY MOST OF THEM IN CASUAL CONVERSATION.
I'll SHAPE THEM INTO THE WORDS WE NEED.
ONCE YOU LEAVE SLOANE'S OFFICE,
YOU'LL HAVE LESS THAN AN HOUR
TO GET TO THE FACILITY BEFORE THE PASSWORDS CHANGE.
DAD... THANKS.
MARSHALL.
CAN YOU REMEMBER BACK TO THE ACONCAGUA OPERATION?
SYDNEY'S CODE NAME?
MS. BRISTOW?
IT WAS, UH, BLUEBIRD.
BLUEBIRD.
SO IT WASN'T FREELANCER.
FREELANCER?
NO, NO, IT... IT WAS BLUEBIRD, DEFINITELY.
EXCUSE ME.
DO YOU HAVE A MINUTE?
YEAH.
YEAH, OF COURSE.
I FEEL SO SELFISH COMING TO YOU LIKE THIS,
ESPECIALLY KNOWING WHAT YOU AND EMILY
MUST BE GOING THROUGH RIGHT NOW.
I'M SORRY.
SYDNEY...
OKAY, SYDNEY, KEEP HIM AWAY FROM HIS COMPUTER.
WHAT IS IT, SYDNEY?
YOU CAN TELL ME.
COME ON.
YOU CAN TELL ME.
[ SYDNEY SIGHS ]
GOT HIS PRINTS. STILL ACCESSING CENTRAL SECURITY.
I DON'T REMEMBER MUCH ABOUT MY MOTHER.
WHEN I THINK OF THE THINGS THAT I MISSED,
THE EXPERIENCES I WISH I'D HAD WITH SOMEONE...
SITTING IN A GARDEN TALKING... LOOK,
I THINK I HAD THOSE THINGS WITH EMILY,
AND THE THOUGHT OF LOSING THAT CONNECTION...
[ TELEPHONE RINGS ]
EXCUSE ME.
[ RING ]
YEAH?
I'll BE RIGHT THERE.
WHEN EMILY WAS DIAGNOSED WITH CANCER,
THE DOCTORS PREDICTED THAT SHE HAD SIX MONTHS.
THAT WAS THREE YEARS AGO.
AND YOU KNOW, IN A WAY, WE'RE LUCKY.
THINKING EVERY DAY MAY BE HER LAST
HAS REMINDED US HOW PRIVILEGED WE ARE
TO HAVE HER IN OUR LIVES.
WE STILL NEED THE CONSONANT "CH," SYDNEY,
AS IN "CHOOSE."
I HAVE TO, UH, GET READY FOR THIS MEETING.
DID YOU AND EMILY EVER THINK ABOUT HAVING CHILDREN?
WHAT WE DO HERE, SYDNEY, IS MORE THAN JUST A CAREER.
I DIDN'T THINK IT WOULD BE FAIR
TO BRING SOMEONE INTO THE WORLD
WHO COULDN'T REALLY KNOW THEIR FATHER.
SEEING THE KIND OF WOMAN YOU'VE BECOME,
KNOWING THAT I HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT...
THAT'S AS REWARDING AS IF I HAD A CHILD OF MY OWN.
BASTARD.
Arvin's voice: CHILD. CH-CH-CH-CH. CHOOSE.
Jack: YOU HAVE EXACTLY 57 MINUTES.
BEFORE THE PASSWORDS CHANGE.
[ DRILL WHIRRING ]
[ WILL SCREAMING ]
YOU HAD A CAVITY.
TALK TO ME ABOUT THE CIRCUMFERENCE.
I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE CIRCUMFERENCE.
I SWEAR TO GOD.
PLEASE.
NO.
NO, NO.
NO.
NO, NO.
NO.
[ GASPING ]
[ SCREAMING ]
AS YOU KNOW, THE ALLIANCE GRANTED YOUR REQUEST
TO SPARE YOUR WIFE.
YOUR ARGUMENT AT THE TIME
WAS THAT SHE WAS SUFFERING FROM A TERMINAL ILLNESS,
BUT THAT IS NO LONGER THE CASE.
WELL... I PROPOSE WE BRING EMILY IN.
EMILY SPENT EIGHT YEARS IN THE STATE DEPARTMENT.
SHE WAS A SENIOR PARTNER AT... ARVIN...
EMILY WILL BE AN ASSET HERE.
IF I WERE IN YOUR POSITION,
I MIGHT TRY TO DO THE SAME,
BUT IT WON'T WORK.
I AM TRULY SORRY,
BUT THESE ARE THE PRESCRIPTS OF THE ALLIANCE.
YOU DON'T KNOW THE KIND OF MISTAKE
THAT YOU ARE MAKING HERE.
AS I SAID BEFORE, THREATS WILL DO NO GOOD.
THIS THREAT MIGHT.
IT'S NOT WHAT I'll DO IF YOU HAVE EMILY KILLED,
IT'S WHAT I WON'T DO.
THE ALLIANCE IS FALLING APART, RAMON.
THIS ORGANIZATION IS CRUMBLING
UNDER THE WEIGHT OF CORRUPTION,
BUREAUCRACY, INFIGHTING, FEAR.
WITH ENEMIES LIKE KHASINAU, WE LIVE IN A NEW WORLD.
DO YOU TELL ME THAT YOU THINK
THE ALLIANCE IS GOING TO SURVIVE
UNDER ITS CURRENT STATE?
WE NEED NEW LEADERSHIP.
WITH BRIAULT AND POOLE GONE,
THERE ARE TWO EMPTY CHAIRS AROUND THE PARTNERS' TABLE.
AND YOU WANT ONE OF THEM.
I DEMAND ONE OF THEM.
ARVIN, I CAME HERE TODAY
NOT ONLY TO HEAR YOUR APPEAL FOR YOUR WIFE,
BUT BECAUSE THE ALLIANCE HAS ALREADY VOTED,
AND THE AGREEMENT WAS UNANIMOUS.
WE ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU SHOULD BE ADMITTED
AS FULL PARTNER.
GOOD.
HOWEVER... THIS OFFER IS CONTINGENT
ON YOUR FULFILLING THE OTHER MATTER.
SO I'M CONFUSED. WHY WAS I CALLED IN HERE?
MR. WEISS MENTIONED
THAT YOU WERE SUSPICIOUS ABOUT SYDNEY BRISTOW.
WHEN I MENTIONED I WAS SUSPICIOUS,
I SIMPLY MEANT SYDNEY SEEMED TROUBLED.
BUT THAT ISN'T THE WORD YOU USED, IS IT?
Arvin's voice: RULE.
DEAR.
CHOOSE.
WHAT I SAID WAS
I FEEL I HAVE AN UNDERSTANDING OF SYDNEY BRISTOW
AND THAT SHE DOESN'T JUST ACCEPT PROBLEMS,
SHE TRIES TO FIX THEM.
AND THAT PERHAPS MS. BRISTOW AND HER FATHER
ARE TRYING TO SECURE RELEASE OF MR. TIPPIN ON THEIR OWN...
IT WAS JUST A CONVERSATION. I HAVE...
IS IT YOUR OPINION, MR. VAUGHN,
THAT MS. BRISTOW IS HIDING SOMETHING FROM YOU,
HIDING SOMETHING FROM THE CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY?
YES, SIR.
YEAH, IT'S DEVLIN.
RECORDS SAY JACK BRISTOW CHECKED INTO YOUR LOCATION.
YEAH, LIKE 20 MINUTES AGO.
KEEP HIM THERE.
SIR, HE ALREADY LEFT.
IN ACONCAGUA, WHEN I WAS SHOT,
YOU RADIOED FOR HELP.
YOU USED THE CALL SIGN FREELANCER.
SYDNEY, YOUR SD-6 CALL SIGN WAS BLUEBIRD.
I WANT TO GIVE YOU THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT.
I EVEN MADE EXCUSES FOR YOU IN MY HEAD.
TROUBLE IS
I DON'T BELIEVE ANY OF THOSE EXCUSES.
WHO ARE YOU WORKING FOR?
AND DO NOT PLAY GAMES WITH ME.
DIXON, YOU KNOW
THAT I WOULD NEVER DO ANYTHING TO HURT YOU.
YOU KNOW THAT I WOULD NEVER DO ANYTHING
TO BETRAY WHAT WE BELIEVE IN.
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW WHAT YOU BELIEVE
WHEN YOU'VE BEEN LYING TO ME?
I'M YOUR PARTNER.
JUST THINK ABOUT THIS FOR A MINUTE.
JUST THINK ABOUT EVERYTHING WE'VE BEEN THROUGH.
JUST THINK ABOUT WHO I AM.
NOW, WHAT I AM GOING TO ASK YOU TO DO
IS JUST ACCEPT THE FACT
THAT I CANNOT TELL YOU WHAT THIS IS ABOUT.
WHAT I AM DOING IS CLASSIFIED.
BUT, DIXON... I SWEAR TO YOU
THAT I AM NOT BETRAYING THIS COUNTRY.
I COULD NEVER DO THAT. YOU KNOW THAT.
I DON'T NEED RHETORIC, SYDNEY.
RIGHT NOW I NEED A REASON
NOT TO REPORT YOU TO SECURITY SECTION.
[ TELEPHONE RINGS ]
YEAH.
IT'S ME.
JACK?
WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?
I'M SAVING SOMEONE'S LIFE.
REALLY? WELL, YOU MAY BE DESTROYING ANOTHER ONE.
YOU JUST STOLE CLASSIFIED PROPERTY
OF THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT.
YOU'LL GET THE SOLUTION BACK
PLUS A COPY OF THE RAMBALDI PAGE.
JACK, I HAVE ACCEPTED YOUR METHODS
FOR A LOT OF YEARS NOW,
BUT THERE'S A MOLE HUNT GOING ON HERE.
ANY LEADS ON THE MOLE? WELL, SO FAR...
I'M TALKING TO THE GUY.
I GAVE HALADKI AUTHORITY TO START AN INQUIRY.
HE'S GOT SOME GOOD QUESTIONS.
WHY YOU WERE WILLING
TO RISK TIPPIN'S LIFE IN THE FIRST PLACE,
HOW YOU CAME TO KNOW ABOUT THE CIRCUMFERENCE.
JACK, THIS DOESN'T LOOK GOOD. COME BACK TO THE OFFICE.
WE'RE FRIENDS, YOU AND I.
WHAT?
YOU'D CONSIDER US FRIENDS.
WELL, I USED TO.
WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
I'll SEE YOU WHEN THE JOB'S DONE.
A GENTLEMAN I KNOW MAKES THIS...
TRUTH SERUM.
I WOULD HAVE USED IT EARLIER EXCEPT THAT...
1 IN 5 MEN WHO RECEIVES IT
HAS AN UNFORTUNATE REACTION.
RESULTS IN... PARALYSIS,
AMONG OTHER THINGS.
AAH!
OH!
[ SOBBING ]
TELL ME ABOUT THE CIRCUMFERENCE.
[ Sobbing ] I DON'T KNOW.
I DON'T KNOW.
IT'S BEEN SIX DAYS.
WILL WARNED ME SOMETHING MIGHT HAPPEN.
HE DIDN'T EVEN TURN UP TO HIS OWN AWARDS DINNER.
CALLED HIS FRIENDS,
THEY HAVEN'T HEARD FROM HIM, EITHER.
ARE YOU GOING TO PUBLISH HIS STORY?
YEAH.
IN THE "A" SECTION.
I HAVE TO TELL DEITRICK THAT THIS IS COMING IN.
CALL ORSAY IN GRAPHICS. GET A PHOTO OF WILL.
Sydney: THEN DIXON JUST TURNED AND WALKED AWAY.
I THINK HE'S GOING TO REPORT ME.
IF WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH THAT CRISIS,
WE'LL DEAL WITH THAT CRISIS.
OH, MY GOD.
THIS DEVICE.
I TOOK IT FROM TAIPEI LAST YEAR.
TWO WEEKS AGO,
AN UNSUBSTANTIATED REPORT CAME IN THROUGH CIA
CLAIMING KHASINAU'S BEEN LOOKING
FOR SOMETHING CALLED THE CIRCUMFERENCE...
INSTRUCTIONS DESCRIBING A METHOD
OF APPLYING TECHNOLOGY KHASINAU HAD ACQUIRED.
THIS MUST BE THE CIRCUMFERENCE.
SO IF KHASINAU BUILT ONE OF THESE DEVICES,
THIS PAGE WOULD TELL HIM HOW TO USE IT.
KEEP THIS SAFE.
WAIT, DAD, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
WE HAVE TO BE IN TAIPEI IN 16 HOURS.
KEEP YOUR PHONE WITH YOU.
I'll CALL YOU WHEN THE PLANE'S READY.
DON'T GO HOME.
[ CAR ALARM CHIRPS ]
HOW THE HELL DID YOU KNOW ABOUT THE CIRCUMFERENCE?
YOU ARE OUT OF YOUR MIND. YOU KNOW THAT?
AAH! DAMN IT, MY EYES!
AAH!
OH, GOD!
HOW LONG HAVE YOU WORKED FOR KHASINAU?
YOU SICK SON OF A BITCH! DEVLIN SAID YOU MENTIONED THE CIRCUMFERENCE.
YOU DON'T HAVE THE CLEARANCE TO KNOW WHAT THAT IS.
YOU MUST HAVE LEARNED ABOUT IT FROM THE OUTSIDE.
YOU SON OF A BITCH!
AAH!
DO YOU WORK FOR KHASINAU? NO.
AAH!
DO YOU WORK FOR KHASINAU?
YOU SON OF A BITCH.
[ CRUNCHING ]
AAH!
YES!
I WORK FOR KHASINAU, YES.
HOW LONG? TWO YEARS.
WHY DOES KHASINAU WANT THE CIRCUMFERENCE?
IT'S THE KEY TO SOMETHING HE'S HAD BUILT.
SOMETHING HE'S BUILT. TELL ME ABOUT IT.
IT'S A BATTERY. ALL I KNOW IS IT'S JUST A BATTERY.
FOR WHAT? I SWEAR I DON'T KNOW.
JACK, KHASINAU'S THE FUTURE.
WHERE IS THIS THING, THIS BATTERY?
IT'S IN TAIPEI.
THE FU SING DISTRICT.
AT A WAREHOUSE... PANG PHARMACEUTICALS...
IN AN UNDERGROUND LAB IN ROOM 47.
YOU GAVE KHASINAU THE INFORMATION
ABOUT THE SAFE HOUSE.
JACK, THIS IS A GIFT I'M GIVING YOU.
KHASINAU CAN SAVE YOU.
YOU SHOULD BE WITH HIM.
YOU TOLD HIM
THAT MY DAUGHTER IS A DOUBLE AGENT WITH SD-6.
JACK! LOOK AT YOURSELF.
YOU EXPOSED SYDNEY.
COME WITH ME.
I CAN SAVE YOU.
Man: ATTENTION, PASSENGERS,
"PACIFIC SURFLINER" TO SAN DIEGO
DEPARTING FROM PLATFORM 5 IN 15 MINUTES.
Michael: HEY.
DEPARTS IN 15 MINUTES.
HI.
HOW DID YOU FIND ME?
YOU TOLD ME A COUPLE MONTHS AGO
THAT WHEN YOU FEEL THE NEED TO DISAPPEAR,
YOU GO TO THE OBSERVATORY,
BUT THE OBSERVATORY WAS CLOSED,
AND THEN I REMEMBERED YOU SAID THE PIER CALMED YOU DOWN,
BUT YOU WEREN'T THERE,
AND YOU WEREN'T AT THE BLUFFS OR THE PALISADES, EITHER.
YOU DIDN'T REALLY GO TO ALL THOSE PLACES.
YEAH, I DID.
AND THEN I REMEMBERED YOU LIKED THE TRAIN STATION, TOO...
NORMAL PEOPLE GOING TO THEIR NORMAL JOBS.
I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU REMEMBERED THAT.
HE'S CONTACTED YOU, HASN'T HE?
KHASINAU.
AND HE WANTS THE PAGE.
YOU'RE GOING TO GIVE IT TO HIM.
YOU CAME HERE TO STOP ME.
MY FATHER USED TO KEEP A DIARY,
AND WHEN I WAS A KID, I USED TO SAY, "HEY, DAD,
ONLY GIRLS KEEP DIARIES,"
AND HE'D JUST... JUST LAUGH.
HE WAS A REALLY GOOD GUY, MY DAD.
YEAH.
BUT HE WAS TOO HARD ON HIMSELF.
I MEAN, HE WAS SUCH A COMPANY GUY
THAT WHENEVER HE SLIPPED UP, EVEN IN THE SLIGHTEST WAY,
HE TOOK IT SO PERSONALLY.
[ SIGHS ]
THERE WERE A FEW OPERATIONS...
HIS LAST ONE AMONG THEM...
THAT HE QUESTIONED.
OPERATIONS HE REFUSED TO PARTICIPATE IN.
BUT ONLY IN HIS DIARY.
HE... HE'D WRITE OUT WHAT HE WANTED TO SAY
TO THE CIA DIRECTOR.
I MEAN, THINGS HE COULD NEVER SAY IN REAL LIFE.
HE WAS A COMPANY MAN, AND I LOVED HIM VERY MUCH,
BUT IT KILLED HIM.
NEVER QUESTIONING ORDERS.
HIS BLIND DEVOTION TO THE JOB.
IF YOU'RE DOING WHAT I THINK YOU'RE DOING,
I'M IN IF YOU NEED ME.
THANK YOU.
WHO TOLD YOU ABOUT THIS?
I FOUND A SOURCE.
KHASINAU'S ALREADY BUILT ONE OF THESE DEVICES,
AND IT'S IN THIS WAREHOUSE,
AN UNDERGROUND LAB, ROOM 47.
THE MEETING WITH SARK IS SCHEDULED TO TAKE PLACE
TWO HOURS FROM NOW.
THAT MEANS BY THE TIME I HAND OVER THE PAGE
IN EXCHANGE FOR TIPPIN, YOU MUST HAVE DESTROYED
NOT ONLY THE DEVICE THEY'VE BUILT,
BUT THE LAB ITSELF.
DESTROYING THE DEVICE SHOULD BE EASY.
IT'S THE SIZE OF A SHOE. WHAT ABOUT THE LAB?
HERE.
IT'S A RED MERCURY CHARGE WITH A MECHANICAL FUSE.
[ BUZZER ]
I'll SEE WHAT THEY NEED.
I UNDERSTAND THE RISKS YOU'VE TAKEN HERE,
AND YOU HAVE MY RESPECT FOR THAT.
IF HE KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT THE CIRCUMFERENCE,
WE WOULD HAVE HEARD IT.
Sark: I SUSPECTED AS MUCH.
PREPARE MR. TIPPIN FOR THE EXCHANGE.
AAH! 1 IN 5, YOU LITTLE BITCH!
1 IN 5! [ LAUGHING ]
[ YELLS IN CHINESE ]
1 IN 5!
[ GASPING ] 1 IN 5!
[ OPERATIC ARIA PLAYING ]
ARVIN...
I CAN'T JUDGE YOU FOR WHAT YOU DO.
I WAS NEVER THERE.
I WAS NEVER FACED WITH THE CHOICES YOU HAD TO MAKE,
AND I HAVE NEVER...
WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY IS... I FORGIVE YOU.
[ TECHNO MUSIC PLAYING ]
JACK BRISTOW, DOING HIS DAUGHTER'S WORK.
THERE WAS SPECULATION
THAT YOU MIGHT MAKE AN APPEARANCE TONIGHT.
IF YOU'RE NOT COMFORTABLE WITH ME,
WE CAN WAIVE OUR BUSINESS FOR THE NIGHT
AND SAY GOODBYE.
ARE YOU COMFORTABLE?
DO YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE
TRADING PRICELESS DOCUMENTS FOR A LOW-GRADE REPORTER?
YOU SHOULD READ TIPPIN'S STUFF. IT'S NOT SO BAD.
LET'S SEE THE ARTIFACTS.
LET'S SEE TIPPIN.
SHALL WE?
YOU'VE EXPOSED THE PAGE.
YOU WOULD HAVE DONE THE SAME.
WHEN I ACTIVATE THE SURGE INDUCER,
YOU'LL HAVE 10 SECONDS TO CROSS THE HALLWAY
BEFORE THE SYSTEM RESETS.
I'll GO RADIO SILENT UNTIL I'M IN THE LAB.
GOOD LUCK. YOU TOO.
THE PARCHMENT FIBERS ARE CONSISTENT
WITH THE ORIGINAL RAMBALDI DOCUMENT.
YES.
WE HAVE A DEAL.
PLEASE PASS ALONG TO YOUR DAUGHTER
HOW MUCH I ENJOYED HER STAGE SHOW IN PARIS.
SHE HAS A MARVELOUS SINGING VOICE.
[ ENGINE STARTS ]
THANK YOU.
[ Sobbing ]THANK YOU.
VAUGHN... IT'S BIGGER THAN I THOUGHT.
SYD, I CAN'T HEAR YOU.
IF I TURN THIS THING OFF,
I'M GOING TO HAVE TO SWIM OUT OF HERE.
