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 fianc�,
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.
Ineni Hassan has broken
an agreement with SD-6.
He has stolen from us.
Any intel about where
in Havana he might be?
No.
We don't know.
That's why I'm sending you
to Cuba.
I want Hassan dead.
What's the countermission?
Sloane might want Hassan dead,
but the CIA needs him alive.
You're making a huge mistake,
trusting a man like Hassan.
They will learn what happens
when they send someone after me.
Hassan has your father.
Then you'll understand
that I'm going to need
your help to get to Cuba.
Prove to me that you are
willing to go against SD-6.
Anything.
Aim the gun at this woman,
if you are who you say you are,
and kill her.
Shooting this agent
proves nothing.
To me, it proves everything.
You come to me,
and you make me an offer.
You tell me that you are
willing to work against SD-6
and that you're working
alone.
Then she shows up.
Obviously SD-6 sent her here
without my knowledge.
Then you should have
no problem whatsoever
proving your loyalty to me.
Kill this agent.
I'll believe you
and I'll accept your offer.
And if you choose not to,
then I'll just have to
say goodbye to both of you.
Don't do it!
Hands in the air! Now!
It took me a second
to realize what you were doing.
I was blinking
as fast as I could.
I know.
It was like,
"*** your light.
"
- "Guard on your right.
"
- I figured it out.
I was never very good
at Morse code.
Dad, you were shot.
It's nothing.
Call your guards.
Have them meet out back.
We're going out the front.
We're fluent in Arabic,
so just do as I say.
So, now what?
Take me to the mountains
and kill me?
The plan doesn't change.
You're gonna give me
your client list.
I'm gonna make sure
SD-6 thinks you're dead.
I don't care who you work for,
as long as you let me go.
Get up.
Do you know how much
this suit cost me?
- It's not cheap.
- Give me your client list.
There you are.
You said you had a way
for me to get out of Cuba.
Yes, I do.
Two years ago
of course, I knew you were
working for SD-6
I heard you'd been sent
to Memphis, Egypt,
to meet with this ***.
It turned my stomach
that you were in this business.
Come here.
I think you've got
a lacerated blood vessel.
I'm all right.
Dad, can I ask you something?
When you started with SD-6,
you knew that they were
a mercenary group
and that they had no connection
with the CIA.
But I didn't.
When I joined
I thought I was gonna be
saving the world.
Not making it
more dangerous.
What's the question?
Why didn't you say something?
You could've told me
what I was really doing.
Damage instead of good.
But you kept quiet.
Revealing the truth
about what you were doing
would have required
revealing the truth
about what I was doing.
I'll see you.
As Hassan and I
were heading to the mainland,
my dad contacted SD-6
and told them
that Hassan was dead and that
his mission was a success.
So it all worked.
SD-6 has no idea
I was gone.
The CIA has Hassan,
and my dad's okay.
So thank you.
I didn't do anything.
You got me into Cuba.
And you know what?
You were right.
What about?
What happens when someone
you care about is in trouble.
Nothing else matters.
It all just goes away.
Last week, when I learned
what my father did for me.
Sacrificing Russek.
It made me sick.
But now I know
I would have done
exactly the same thing.
You should have seen him.
Your father?
Yeah, he was like a pro.
He was good.
The way you talked
about him once,
what his reputation is,
I could see it in action.
He was impressive.
I got those codes deciphered.
Those books your father
used to buy for your mother.
The ones he had imported
Those Cyrillic codes
you found and gave to me
I had NSA look at them.
What is this?
Directives.
Confirmed KGB orders.
What kind of orders?
What do they mean?
It's a list of aliases,
of handles.
People.
Who?
Those are official code names
given by the CIA
to over a dozen of our officers,
all of whom were killed.
What?
All killed by an unknown
foreign agent.
An agent the CIA suspected
was KGB.
Your suspicions
about your father
having once worked
for the KGB are accurate.
We don't know for sure.
Your father was being tracked
by an FBI counterintelligence.
You said that was routine.
There's nothing routine
about that list.
There is something
very specific about it.
It's been a mystery
within the agency
for over two decades,
who murdered those CIA officers.
I'm sorry,
but we have our answer now.
It was your father.
I'm gonna report him.
I'm glad you're back safely.
To tell you the truth,
I was a little nervous.
I've been through far worse
than Havana.
We both have.
When I didn't hear from you,
I thought maybe Hassan
had gotten a lead.
Maybe he knew you were coming.
I was unsure of that myself,
but it all worked out.
Not for Hassan.
No, not for him.
Thank you.
It's my job.
A vicious ***.
Ineni Hassan has been executed.
We may never know who's
responsible for this killing,
but what we do know is
that after word
of Hassan's death spread,
this man was unusually busy.
This is Minos Sakulos.
He worked very closely
with Hassan.
Some considered him
to be Hassan's second.
For the past two days,
Sakulos has been scrambling
to make contact
with Hassan's old clients.
Seems he's looking to take over
Hassan's work.
Do you think Sakulos
had Hassan killed?
Perhaps.
Or maybe he's just taking
advantage of an opportunity.
We intercepted this call
last night.
I know that before his death,
you were in talks
with Mr.
Hassan.
Yes, it was a discussion
of a certain package.
I'm in possession
of this package myself.
I'm taking bids right now.
A package?
Yes, a package.
For months
we've been hearing rumors
about a new device
that Hassan had commissioned.
We don't know what it is,
but Hassan was an arms dealer
with access to nuclear weapons,
so we need to know.
This is Club Panthera.
It's Sakulos' cover.
He keeps an office there.
Sakulos has set up a meeting
with potential clients
Thursday night at this club.
Your job is to go to Greece,
break into Sakulos' office,
and retrieve the specs
on this mysterious package.
Marshall.
Thank you.
Actually, before I
Did anyone see
that documentary on monkeys
last night on
It was great.
They did this sign
No one saw that.
What we've learned so far
is that Sakulos has
a biometric access panel
on his office door
which requires a retinal scan
in order to open.
So you have the high-resolution
retina scanners.
They work from up to
about 30 feet.
Now, Miss Bristow
you'll put these on like so
and find the person
whose retina you want.
You want to make direct,
solid eye contact with him.
Look him right in the
And then, Mr.
Dixon
you will lock on
and hit the scan key.
It should take
about 10 seconds.
I know that's kind of
a long time,
but check this out.
This is a silicone
and fluoropolymer compound.
Creates a set
of contact lenses
that the retina reader
will accept.
You guys got to check out
that documentary on monkeys.
It's
I got a copy at home if
Not so bad here, is it?
This is not the deal
I agreed to.
So, what can you tell me
about the package?
You're gonna have to
help me out.
Under the Patriot Act of 2001,
you're not going anywhere.
What I recommend is that
you and I work together,
and I'll make sure
you stay comfortable.
There are some incredibly nice
prisons in this country.
Either that, or you don't
cooperate, in which case,
you're not gonna like
your cellmate so much.
You don't have to trust me,
but it might save you
some misery.
What's the package?
Listen.
I have a wife and a son.
They are targets.
Not just SD-6.
I've made many enemies
in the past.
You bring them
to the United States.
Give them protection.
You do that for me,
and I'll tell you
whatever you want to know.
Everything.
Let me make one thing
very clear, Mr.
Hassan.
The extent to which
I am willing to service you
is when I offer you a soda.
There is no room
for negotiations.
There are no perks
coming your way.
You have nothing
to gain here.
Then neither do you.
- Think about that.
- I don't have to.
I'll give you some time
to think about that.
Sydney
In Cuba,
I should have said that
I wanted to say
thank you for coming.
I know that was something
that you
that you certainly
didn't have to do.
It's okay, Dad.
Wait.
There's something else.
There are
There are
so many things that
I should probably do.
I mean, as a father.
Things I should ask and say.
Dad
it's all right.
Really.
Whatever the package is,
Hassan's not talking.
Here's the plan.
You'll
put on the contact lenses,
get into Sakulos' office,
and record the specs.
You.
Not Dixon.
The compact's a camera.
The lipstick's a voice recorder.
The lighter's
a USB flash R.
A.
M.
Drive.
Whatever info you can get,
get it for us.
These are some unclassified
designs for various weapons.
You'll photograph these with
whatever camera SD-6 gives you.
That's what you'll give them
when you get back.
Thanks.
Listen, about your father
I know you're reluctant
to do anything.
I've been thinking a lot
about that.
You know what we have to do.
We have to report him
to Langley.
Now, I could do it myself,
but those are your books.
They'll need your testimony
to make a case against him.
He might have been
part of the KGB,
but we don't know what role
he played in those murders.
You're kidding yourself.
Let's say he was guilty.
The directives are 25 years old.
There is no statute
of limitation on ***.
We need him right now.
We will never destroy SD-6
without my father.
Those code names in your
father's books were people.
They risked their lives,
all of them, for this country.
Yes, it might have been
but for each of those lives
lost, others were destroyed.
- I know.
- You don't know.
You're not thinking about them.
You're only thinking
of yourself.
You made a connection
with your father
for the first time.
Turning him in
would mean sacrificing that.
I understand.
But, Sydney, we have proof.
We know who the victims are.
You're holding them
in your hands.
We know who the killer was.
And we both know
the right thing to do.
Yes, my father probably got
his KGB orders from the books.
And, yes, it looks like
my father was responsible
for those deaths.
But what you're asking me
to do
I just need some time.
Not a lot of time.
Not forever.
Just
Please.
You won't do anything
about this without me.
Yes, my father probably got
his KGB orders from the books.
And, yes, it looks like
my father was responsible
for those deaths.
I'm gonna need
another set of eyes.
I'm working on it.
I'm in.
Give me a second
to locate Sakulos.
Found him.
He's through the glass door
to your left.
He's looking right at me.
You got anything yet?
I'm not getting a lock
on the retinas.
The lights must be
disrupting the signal.
- You'll have to get closer.
- How much closer?
In this lighting,
how's 2 inches?
Great.
I understand
you're the owner of the club.
Well, you are American.
That's right.
God bless America.
I'm getting it, Syd.
Hold him for 10 seconds.
Your dancers suck.
Suck?
You think you could do
a better job?
Sir
your 11:00 just arrived.
He's waiting
by the poolside bar.
No good.
We didn't get a read yet.
I have a very important
meeting with a client.
But follow me.
I'll be back in 10 minutes.
I can't wait.
Got it.
The contacts are ready, Syd.
Meet me by the restrooms.
Excuse me.
I have to go.
Mr.
Sakulos has invited you
to stay.
I need a drink.
We will be happy to have
whatever you like brought here.
I'd rather get it myself.
I think you will be much more
comfortable if you stay here.
Really?
Do you?
You okay?
Yeah, except I'm locked
in this pervert's room.
I'm closer to Sakulos' office,
and I have the contacts.
No, Dixon, I really want to
do this myself.
I'll download the blueprints
of the package
from Sakulos' computer.
No, Dixon
Just get out in one piece.
I'll meet you outside
when I'm done.
Damn it.
Are you auditioning
to be a dancer, eh?
Or a bouncer, eh?
I can't quite decide
if you are my taste.
Sydney!
Syd, let's go.
How's the food?
So, Mr.
Hassan, you've had
some time to think about it.
- Do you want to help me out?
- Screw you.
- Screw me.
- Screw you.
I don't talk to you
unless you show me some respect.
Let's be honest here.
In 20 minutes,
you're gonna be shipped off
to a maximum-security prison
outside Los Angeles.
By 5:00 p.
m.
, you're gonna be
someone's after-dinner mint.
Unless you start
cooperating with me real fast,
respect is gonna be
the least of your problems.
Wait.
You still refuse to help get
my family out of Argentina.
I told you,
that's not part of the deal.
But if you help me out,
I'll make sure
you stay comfortable.
I have a stockpile of weapons,
not in Egypt.
I knew that's where
my enemies would look.
The package and other weapons
are in a silo in Greece,
on the Isle of Crete.
- He licked my face.
- I understand.
You don't really.
He licked my face.
And you want to know
the worst part?
I didn't succeed.
Because of him,
Dixon accessed the information.
The CIA got nothing.
SD-6 ended up
with what they wanted.
I want to go to Crete myself.
I want to find the stockpile
Hassan told you about,
get the package,
and bring it back.
I just don't feel
it's the right time
for the CIA to send you anywhere
without SD-6's knowledge.
We just did that with Cuba.
I think it's too dangerous.
We can use my father.
He can give Sloane the intel.
We'll make it an SD-6 mission.
That's not why I called you.
I know.
Listen,
if we turn in my father
that'll jeopardize
what you and I are doing.
Yes, my father probably got
his KGB orders from the books.
And, yes, it looks like
my father was responsible
for those deaths.
I figured turning in your father
would be too difficult for you,
so I made this tape
last time we were together.
I was gonna play it for Devlin.
Maybe use it in court someday.
But I couldn't bring myself
to do that.
I'm only telling you this
because I thought I owed you
that for some reason.
I know this is
a personal thing for you.
The idea of reporting
your father
is a horrible position
to be in.
But it's a personal thing
for me, too, Sydney.
Those files I showed you
of the CIA officers
who were killed
I left one out.
I made an appointment
to meet with Devlin on Monday
to report your father.
Are you with me?
� There's a saying old,
says that love is blind �
� Still we're often told,

� So I'm going to seek
a certain girl �
� I've had in mind �
� There's a somebody
I'm longing to see �
What's up?
Is Jenny here?
What?
No.
Come on in.

What's wrong?
Come here.

Can you tell me what's wrong?
I just want to stay here
for a while if that's okay.
Of course.
Dad, I know
you've made mistakes.
We both have.
And I know that,
given the chance,
you'd go back
and take a different path.
That you'd right
the things you did wrong.
My point is,
something went wrong last week.
I have the chance to correct
it, but I need your help.
Please.
You have to make Sloane believe
that you've received intel
about Hassan's
weapons stockpile.
Arvin, I just received
some intel.
I think we have the location
of Hassan's weapons stockpile.
You're looking
at an E.
M.
Refractor,
used to cloak missiles.
It's being stored
on the island of Crete.
Thanks to your father's
Middle-Eastern contacts,
we know where to go.
Good work.
You go to Marshall.
He'll review the op tech.
You'll leave in the morning.
Sakulos is leaving
the bunker.
We've got him
on satellite relay, Syd.
See any guards?
Hassan says there won't be any.
The building was designed
to look abandoned.
The E.
M.
Refractor is
in a secure depot underground.
Copy that.
Go infrared.
It's clear.
Syd, you're clear.
Okay, I'm in.
Where to?
There's
a stairwell on your left.
Go down to the lower level.
It's a dead end.
There is a valve
halfway up on the left.
She needs to turn it clockwise.
Syd, turn to your left.
There's a valve.
Turn it clockwise.
Copy.
A panel will open.
She'll find a keypad behind it.
You should find a keypad.
What's the code?
The code.
Pi to six digits.
The code is 314159.
Where do I look?
Hassan says to look
for black shipping cases.
I found the refractor.
Vaughn,
I think this is a setup.
Vaughn, what's going on?
The room went into lockdown.
What the hell
did you just do?
I gave you the wrong code.
Your agent has activated
an anti-intruder device.
In a few seconds
the room will be filled
with gasoline.
Exactly one minute after that,
a flame will ignite.
Vaughn, talk to me.
Give me
the deactivation code.
Vaughn!
Not until I have
an agreement in writing
signed by your superiors
guaranteeing that my family
will be allowed entrance
into your
witness-protection program.
Give me the code, you son of a
***, or I'll pull the trigger.
I have no doubt that's true.
- Start typing.
- Me?
You misspelled "Ineni.
"
Shut up.
- Sorry, Mr.
Devlin.
- What are you doing?
If I don't get your signature
on a protection order
for Ineni Hassan's family
in the next 40 seconds,
Sydney Bristow will die.
Come on.
Come on.
Give me the code.
The code is 766153.
Vaughn, thank you.
Don't shoot.
The room is full of gasoline.
What the hell are you doing?
You're amazing.
I am not amazing.
You did a great job.
You sure you're ready
to meet with Devlin?
A taxi will pick you up at 3:00.
Northwest corner
of Westwood and Wilshire.
They'll get you into the agency
through the underground garage.
You sure you're all right?
It's a big meeting.
I know.
I don't get it.
This is CIA Director Devlin,
Deputy Director Tucker,
Executive Director Gerstner,
and these are Senior Officers
Haley, Stafford, and Collum.
I knew weeks ago
that my file had been pulled
and that you were suspicious
of my activities 25 years ago
regarding the KGB.
When I learned you had scheduled
a meeting with Mr.
Devlin
regarding my history
I knew that it was time.
Let me say in advance
I'm sorry to make this
such a public display,
but I felt it was important to
do this in front of these people
because they already know
the truth
and because I didn't think that
you would believe me otherwise.
Those Cyrillic codes
you found in those books
Yes, they were orders
from the KGB.
And, yes,
they were orders to kill.
An agent received those orders
and carried them out.
Murdered officers of the CIA.
Including your father,
Mr.
Vaughn.
All this is true.
But, Sydney,
I was not that agent.
Your mother was.
