Episode 10: Remnants
12/07/2003
Sydney tells Jack about a dream — she's with Will in
her old apartment and there's cereal box that says St. Aidan.
Jack advises Syd to contact Will, who's in the witness protection
program. Brezzel believes Syd's memory of the missing time
has been removed and that the precision of the extraction
indicates she may have been a willing participant.
Syd visits Will in Wisconsin. Suspicious, he pulls a gun
but she proves her identity, saying he's her oldest friend
and that she loves him. Finally, he believes her and they
hug. Sloane, under pressure from Lindsey, contracts Syd's
assassin in Buenos Aires at a cost of $500K. Later, Jack socks
Lindsey when he doubts his and Vaughn's sincerity and speaks
brazenly about Syd. Now in custody, Jack advises Vaughn to
push Syd away for her sake.
Syd tells Will that Allison Doren is alive and working for
The Covenant. He remembers that St. Aidan was the codename
of an old Agency contact. He arranges to meet St. Aidan in
Warsaw. Meanwhile, Sark attacks Brezzel at his lab and hooks
him up to a morphine drip. Before he overdoses, Brezzel reveals
that Syd was going to contact Will. St. Aidan meets Will —
it's Lazarey. He refuses to talk about The Covenant. Syd has
Will say that Julia Thorne sent him, that she trusts him and
she's in danger. "Do they have it?" he asks. "Have
they been to Gratz?"
Sark appears and shoots Lazarey with a tranquilizer. A gun
battle ensues. Syd and Will escape. Later, Will and Syd talk
about the old days. She's lonely and, in a moment of vulnerability,
they sleep together. Laying in bed, Syd realizes that she
had "it," whatever that is, and assumes she would
have hidden it in the Hotel Verlustzeit.
In a torture chamber, Sark confronts his father, who initially
doesn't recognize him. He says he staged his death to give
Sark his inheritance. Sark says the inheritance now finances
The Covenant. Lazarey says they are true evil and refuses
to talk … Until Sark ignites a blowtorch.
Will and Syd check into the Gratz hotel, posing as rock stars.
Syd taps into the security system through the onscreen checkout
and finds the location of a safe deposit box belonging to
Julia Thorne. After disabling the security cameras, she breaks
into the box, but Sark steals the object from under her nose.
Allison attacks Will with a knife while Syd chases after Sark.
In close combat, Will plunges the knife into Allison, killing
her. Syd knocks out Sark and steals the object.
Syd contacts Sloane, and prepares for the trade on the San
Pedro docks. A team posing as The Covenant takes the Rambaldi
device in exchange for Syd. The sniper fires — and kills
Lindsey. Syd opens the crate in which the Rambaldi device
is stored — it's filled with junk. Sloane says it was
a setup engineered by Lindsey, who never intended to hand
over the Rambaldi device. Syd doesn't believe him and promises
he won't get away with it.
At the CIA. Vaughn gives Syd the cold shoulder as Jack observes.
Marshall examines the box — it contains human tissue
and Milo Rambaldi's name is etched in the side. Will tells
Syd that he's gotten no closure or satisfaction from killing
Allison. He says he's going to stay in Wisconsin and promises
to see her again.
