For her next assignment, Sydney is sent to Tuscany to steal
information from Ineni Hassan's accountant. Despite Hassan's
previous alliance with SD-6, he is now their enemy, and Sloane
wants the numbers to Hassan's bank accounts so they can freeze
his assets.
After
Sydney leaves, Sloane sends a message to his colleagues in
SD-4. He orders Sydney's assassination, though the CIA intercepts
the order. Vaughn quickly assembles a team to rescue Sydney.
Jack learns of the kill order and, with Marshall's aid, discovers
that the message was deliberately sent over the unsecured server
previously infiltrated by Vaughn's team. Sloane is tempting the
CIA, trying to draw them out. Jack argues with Vaughn, and prevents
the CIA from interfering. The assassination attempt never occurs,
and Sloane now believes that Sydney is loyal to SD-6.
Meanwhile, Will continues to investigate the pin that he found
in Eloise Kurtz's car. He's shocked to discover that not only
is the pin a small microphone, it's also still active. One night while drinking with Francie, Will shows her the pin.
Both of them start joking, asking a series of questions into
the pin. Just then, Will receives a phone call. A mysterious
voice tells him to keep his mouth shut.
From the Tuscany assignment, SD-6 have learned that the accountant's
computer did not contain Hassan's bank account numbers, only
the name of a specific Swiss bank. Sydney and Agent Russek
travel to Geneva, in order to get the numbers. As Sydney reads
the numbers to Russek, a secret transmitter in her ear beams
the same information to the CIA.
While monitoring Sydney and Russek's latest mission, Marshall
discovers the secret transmission coming from the bank vault.
He shares this information with Dreyer. At a phone booth, Will receives another phone call from the same
mysterious voice. The voice asks Will how far he's willing
to go in order to find the truth about Kate Jones. Will says
he's up for the challenge...and later finds a cassette tape
in his glove compartment. The tape is an audio recording of
Kate Jones/Eloise Kurtz being killed.
After several days in the hospital, Dixon finally regains consciousness.
Sydney is relieved when he doesn't remember how he was brought
to a hospital. As she leaves the hospital, she's tackled by
a group of men. Sloane then receives a phone call...A mysterious
voice says "We’ve got her..."
