Do you travel much?

Yes. For my work.

I like the train.

Yes.

What is your work?

I'm in chemical business.

I knew something like that.

You did?
Yes.

Because I look at your hands
when I come in

and I think,
he uses brain

more than hands.

I use hands also.

I am hoping so.

So what is in case?
Chemical?

Chemical, yes.

No.

Yes. Something danger.

In this, danger?

Yes, in case.

I don't believe.

Yes, it's true.

Show me. I want to see.

I want to see what you do.

What is so danger?

All right. All right,
at the very least,

we were compromised, brodien.
I figured that part out.

We were supposed
to meet at 10:15.

Extracted by 10:25.

I was late.

Yeah, and I want
to know why.

Watch the door, please.
There's a reason for
protocol, you know that?

Where were you?
Can we save the debrief
for the flight back?

Didn't you try to contact
agent strum?

I told you,
his life is at risk.

But he's in deep cover,
agent Bristow.

That's part
of the job description.
Safety's on.

Mountaineer to shopkeeper,
please respond.

Mountaineer,
this is shopkeeper.

Shopkeeper,
your cover's been blown.

We'll meet in the ming hai
train yard -- 20 minutes.

Wait a second.

Wait. Wait, what are you --
how did you find me?

How did you find me?
Shopkeeper, do you copy?

They know where I am!
They found me! They found me!

What's happening?

Hello, Sydney Bristow.

I heard about
what you're wearing.

I like it.

But your work here
in Shanghai -- not so good.

You broke radio silence.
Sloppy. Disappointing.

Who is this?
What do you want?

I just got what I wanted.

We're tracking
your radio signal right now.

We know
the building you're in.

We're coming.
They just tracked
your broadcast?

What are you doing?
Trust me.

No, I'm not just
following you blind anymore.

What's your plan?
I don't have time
to type an itinerary.

You do what I say,
or you'll die.

Now take off your shirt.

That window's too small
to climb out.

I'm not climbing out.

What are you doing?

Close your eyes.

What the hell for?

Close them.

Ow! That burns!

Better than a bullet.

Oh, my God!
Open.

Ah, God!

This part's
gonna hurt more.

No. No,
I don't need that.
It's the details that matter.

Try not to scream.

Aah!

Aah!

All right,
what is that for?

So we're both gonna
walk out of here alone.

They're gonna kill me,
aren't they?

They might. You've got
to strut out of this club.

I don't strut.

Look at yourself.

My ear hurts.

We'll meet
at the ding ha station.

You won't need this.

What are you gonna do?
They know what you look like.

Hey!

In your complaint
against agent Bristow,

you stated
that your pursuers

tracked you
to the restroom?

Yes, ma'am, they did.
When --

when I made contact
with agent strum.

I wanted to help him.

I made arrangements
with agent strum to meet him

at the closest
lz in jing an.

My intention
was to extract him.

That wasn't your purpose
in Shanghai.

You were sent
with one objective --

pick up surveillance photos
from agent brodien --

yes, ma'am. Photos taken
by agent strum,

whose cover
had already been blown.

That's presupposition.

A tip from an unauthenticated
source,

and you opted to change
the objective of the --

I made a judgment call.
You do understand that things

don't always go as expected
when you're in the field.

I don't need a lecture from you.
I've read your report.

Even for you,
agent Bristow,

your arrogance today
is appalling.

It wasn't meant to be
a lecture,

director chase,
just a reminder.

With all due respect,
it's been 12 years

since you've been
field-rated.

Your poor judgment apparently
cost a man his life.

So, after dressing him up,
you violated protocol

yet again by leaving
your contact alone.

Mr. brodien would have
been killed otherwise.

Miss Bristow,
your record's a mess.

Your consistent disregard
for protocol

obviously speaks to some
larger systemic dysfunction.

A psychological need
to challenge authority.

If the Shanghai incident
were an isolated one,

then perhaps a warning
would suffice here.

But this is hardly
the first time

you've exhibited
rogue behavior.

What happened in Shanghai
was not rogue. I was trying --

miss Bristow,
it's my turn to talk.

I'm recommending to the board

that you be stripped
of classified clearance

and assigned to the dispatch
office at Langley.

You're transferring me
to the mailroom?

You'll report to officer
hermalin 8:00 A.M. on Monday.

Let me get this straight.

Is this a permanent
reassignment?

Technically,
that's what a demotion is.

I don't know exactly
what you have against me,

but my record has always
been --

I resent you,
and I'll tell you why.

It's conduct like yours
that endangers the CIA.

It weakens us. It forces us
to take a defensive posture.

Wait a minute. Am I supposed
to defend my record?

This is not a dialogue,
miss Bristow.

In Virginia Monday morning.

If this is your decision,
director chase,

I will no longer burden
this agency

with the hazard
of my participation.

Are you opting to terminate
your association with the CIA?

I will say it in English
for you.

I quit.

Yo!

Vaughn.

Vaughn! Bag's dead, man.
You can give it up.

Thanks for coming.

Thanks for sweating.

Yeah, I think that a full
month of psych evaluation's

more than enough.

Really? For you?

I don't know.

It was a little overkill,
though.

Come on. Burning
your house down?

It wasn't a happy home.

Yeah, still -- fire.

Yeah, well,
you kill your wife

after learning she's a vicious
homicidal double agent.

See how rational you are.

I want you to know
that I'm there for you,

whatever you need.

You know, if you need
to stay with me for a while

'cause your house is...
Ashes.

I'm leaving.

Leaving what?

The agency?
Is this because of Sydney?

It's not because of Sydney.
It's because last year sucked.

It's because I don't have
the desire to do --

not the desire, the need
to do this job anymore.

I don't have it in me.
So you're telling me

that this stupid idea
was all on your own?

Sydney didn't talk to you
about this?

I haven't spoken to her
this week. Or last.

I don't know what's going on --
you got to talk to her.

Well, I've already made
my decision.

Okay,
this isn't about you.

Her review was today.

Sydney quit.

Glad you found us.

Me too.

That wouldn't have been
a very good start.

You did well
with the committee.

Very convincing.

Thank you. So you were you.

I actually felt like
I was in trouble.

Well, I can pull it out
when I need to.

Come on,
let me show you around.

How is that man's ear?

Don't worry about brodien.
He thinks he's a hero.

He has no clue
Shanghai was a charade.

The agency's
pacific rim surveillance

worked out of this office
until '98.

This place was dark
until two months ago

when Langley approved
the division.

Miss chase, I can't
tell you what an honor it is

to have been asked to be
part of this operation.

I know you spoke
of being hungry,

looking
for a fresh start --

that was nothing.

My father, Vaughn --
irrelevant personal stuff.

I want to serve my country
the best I can.

Well, this assignment
will be a challenge for you --

more than you were led
to believe.

The four of you were chosen.

Handpicked to help
run this team.

The four of us?

Handpicked by whom?

This is exciting.

Could I have a word,
please?

When I was approached
about joining

a black ops unit
within the CIA,

I thought I was doing
the right thing.

And while I appreciate
the necessary protocol

in assembling a new team,
arvin sloane is not --

I understand you used
to work for sloane.

Yeah, a criminal psychopath
beyond verbal description.

I know all about sloane.

Then allow me to ask
the most obvious question

in the history of time.

How can the CIA
let that man,

who ran what amounts
to a terrorist cell

within the borders
of this country,

you don't need me to explain
the geopolitical landscape,

or to list this country's
former enemies

with whom
we now collaborate.

You have to draw the line
somewhere.

We can use him now --

his contacts,
his expertise.

And he will be
closely monitored.

Pity the man
with that job.

Wait a minute.

With you here, Vaughn,
Dixon, and your father,

there's a built-in system
of checks and balances.

If sloane missteps,
you'll catch him.

Now that's it.

This is your assignment.

I was just explaining
how the CIA approached me.

Concerned that increased
public scrutiny

of the agency
and the resulting red tape

has impeded their ability
to do their job,

what they asked me to set up
for them is a covert unit,

one that is still
governed by U.S. laws

but unhampered by
bureaucratic chain of command,

with no accountability
except to ourselves.

That part was made clear.

But the part
that wasn't made clear --

that's me.

No, it wasn't.

Well, quite frankly,

I was surprised
by their call, too,

until I understood
what it is they want.

Their own SD-6.

A unit that officially
doesn't exist,

comprised of team members

who have no apparent
affiliation to the CIA.

They don't want to know
how we do

our day's work,
only that it gets done.

And what is our day's work?

His name is Yuri kamarov.

He's Russia's
leading nuclear scientist --

until last month
when he disappeared

with the only viable sample
of orine-12,

a deadly and highly unstable
isotope.

Signal intercepts indicate

that on Thursday
kamarov will have a meeting

on the train traveling
between Belarus and Latvia.

We can assume he will be
selling the isotope.

The CIA is unable to use
that information,

which is why we're here.

Sydney, Vaughn, you will be
on that train.

I can't believe this.

I beg your pardon?

Nothing.

The buyer, who is it?
We don't know yet.

But according
to his grocery list,

we can assume
he's a serious threat.

We were able to intercept
the protocol of the meet.

The buyer will be
in the dining car

at 8:00 P.M.
greenwich mean time.

There will be a green
fountain pen on the table.

He will ask kamarov
if he would like some tea.

Kamarov will reply
that he prefers bourbon.

Dixon, you will be on point.

Sydney, you will recover
kamarov and the isotope.

Vaughn, you will I.D.
The buyer.

You will sell him
a bogus isotope

outfitted
with a tracking device

so that Langley can follow him
back to his base of operations

and grab him there.

Is that it?

Kamarov is known to rig
his transport devices

with self-destruct
mechanisms.

Yes, that's correct,
so, Sydney, you'll need

to get him to open
the case for you.

Do you have any suggestions?

I assume you'll come up
with something interesting.

Jack, you'll set up
the operational plan

for wheels up, 0600 hours.

Are there any questions?

Besides how'd you get
this job?

Sydney.

Syd.

What is this, a.P.O.?

It's the name
of our new organization.

It's right on the door.

Authorized personnel only.

I thought it was fitting.

Excuse me.
I should prep.

If I'd known sloane
was involved, not a chance.

It was a little
deceitful, right?

Yeah, but then I thought
if I refused the job,

I can't watch over sloane.

I'm having the same
conversation with myself.

You know, I told Langley

that I wanted
to step down as director.

That life, that suit
was never for me.

I belong in the field.

And then the offer
came from chase.

"An elite black ops unit"
speech.

Yeah, that's the one,
and I was in.

Look, I understand
your reluctance

to work with me, given --

well, given everything.

But despite
my former allegiance,

my betrayal of you,

of this country,

you can't deny it.

We were a great team.

So I'll do this
just once,

and ask you to please

give me a chance.

One thing makes up
for all this.

Having you as my partner
again.

♪ Hearts are worn
in these dark ages ♪

♪ you're not alone
in this story's pages... ♪

Sorry to drop by.

It's okay.

I miss you.

I wanted to say
that I miss you.

I've been thinking,

obviously, about what --

what, you were afraid to --

I'm not afraid, but I --
you didn't return my calls.

That's 'cause I could
feel what was happening.

Can I come in?

If you come in, we both
know what's going to happen.

I don't want that.

To jump right back in
where we were

before everything,

to pretend like those
years didn't happen.

Well, that would be nice,
wouldn't it?

But they did.

We need to take it slow,
Vaughn.

Yeah.

You're probably right.

You ready?

Ja, I think so. You?

Hello!

Are you speaking English?

Yes, I speak.

See for me, this room?

Care for some tea?

No, I prefer bourbon.

You're early.

I am eager to make exchange.

As am I, Mr. kamarov.

I-I am sorry.

Ticket is good, no?

Yes, it's good.

I was drink...
In dining car...

Too much.
Oh. Yeah.

I am for sleeping now.

Is there a place
for changing?

Uh, yes.

Bathroom.

Hmm...

Thank you.

You are cute.

I like these framings.

Ooh.

You want
to do this in public?

Mr. vadik is not afraid
of the public,

and neither am I.

Is this okay for me?

I just got it.

For you? Yes.

For you it's very...

Okay.

You can't test power
with toy from hardware store.

When the more comprehensive
tests are done,

Mr. vadik will forward you
the other half of your payment.

You're not very discreet.

Terror happens every day.

Around everyone.

And no one notices a thing

until something detonates.

Mr. vadik and I
rely on that.

What is your work?

I'm in chemical business.

I knew something like that.

You did?
Yes.

Because I look at your hands
when I come in

and I think,
he uses brain

more than hands.

You look familiar.

Sometimes people tell me
I look like hockey player --

alexei kovalev.

No.

That's not it.

Ah, perhaps we have met
before.

Maybe your boss,
Mr. vadik.

Maybe I know him.

What is this?

I don't know
where you're from,

but you're not kamarov.

Excuse me? This is me.

I'm getting off
the train a little early.

Find out who he is.

Syd, they're on to us.
Get out of there.

There's one coming
your way. Move!

What is it?

Get up.

Here.

Ahh! Ahh!

Are you kidding?!

Aah!

Syd, before we left,

Jack came to see me
with a message for you.

Your father wanted me
to remind you

that in Belarus we're not
gonna have a tactical team.

So why is your father
talking to you through me?

When I was in D.C.,

I know that you went
to wittenberg,

and I know
your father was there.

What happened
in wittenberg?

Sydney.

You were never supposed
to have found this.

You want to tell me
what happened in wittenberg?

No, actually, I don't.

We now know the men
on the train were working

for Roman vadik,
CIA's 26th most wanted.

Vadik's résumé
has him responsible

for the chunei blast in '86,
matsu in '89 --

over 12,000 dead total.

Close personal contacts of mine
have confirmed

vadik's cooperation
with known terrorist cells

in planning a major attack
within the next six months.

Close personal contacts?

CIA wants vadik.

Yes, that's right.

What's the move?

Last year, a foreign agent

working on infiltrating
vadik's operation

made particularly
good progress.

She needs to be debriefed.

I'm sending you, Sydney.

I'll give you
the details in my office.

Lucky me.

The agent working
with vadik's operation

was with
Argentine intelligence.

Your daughter?
Your sister.

If Nadia's the one
with intel on vadik,

why not
debrief her yourself?

We went searching --

Nadia and I --

for an artifact
built by rambaldi.

Its value immeasurable.

And we found it.

And we promptly handed it
over to the U.S. government.

That's how you got
this position.

You bought it.

It turns out the pain
that she felt

as a result of her job
was profound --

she chose
to leave intelligence,

you're sure
she really left?

Fake quitting seems to be
all the rage.

She's out.
She's back in Argentina.

She wants nothing
to do with me or this life.

You're awfully glib,
Sydney.

Nadia left you
on bad terms.

I suppose I have
something to learn

about being a father.

I can see why you don't
want to go.

That wasn't meant
to be glib.

I still don't know why
you think she'll talk to me.

Because I see in her something
I once saw in you --

the need to work
for what's right.

And because you know
what it is

to put aside
personal issues.

And that --

that's a gift.

It's not a gift.

What it's been
is a necessity,

and it's become a burden,
and quite frankly,

something I have run out
of patience for.

Vaughn,
before she goes,

you might tell her
the truth.

No, I'm not gonna be
a conduit to your daughter.

I've tried that before.

You can imagine how well
that went over.

And, no, she didn't say
anything,

if that's what
you're asking yourself.

She hasn't said a word
about anything

that happened
between the two of you.

Which gives me an idea
of what that is.

And, Jack, I hope
for Sydney's sake

that I'm wrong.
