He
says that "the circle' will be completed once the chosen one
takes a rose from the San Cielo monastery in Italy. He also points
out that their plan might not succeed because Anna is only posing
as Sydney. Just then, Syd arrives as Anna and meets Sloane. She tells
Sloane that she had killed Sydney Bristow. Sloane in turn tells her
that she has to retrieve an artifact.
Marshall tells Rachel that he flagged a message from Korman, the
man who supposedly killed Tom's wife. When Rachel says Tom softened
after seeing Korman's family, Marshal notes that Korman has no family.
Rachel asks for 24 hours to investigate before Marshal notifies Jack.
Dixon arrives in Hamburg and asks Vaughn how he faked his death.
Vaughn explains that Prophet Five wanted him dead, so Jack arranged
to inject him with sodium morphate, putting him in a coma until he
was administered the antidote. As Dixon hands him a photo of Isabelle,
Jack calls and asks them to be Sydney's back up in Italy.
In Italy, Sydney discreetly chats with Vaughn at a newspaper stand.
Vaughn tells her that there is no record of a monastery, so Syd asks
them to stand by until she meets her contact. Sydney sees Sark in
a betting parlor.
Rachel, in her car, sees Tom and Korman talk. When
Korman leaves, Rachel approaches Tom and demands an explanation.
Tom confesses that
Korman, acting on orders from "The Cardinal," killed his
wife. Korman asked Tom to retrieve his CIA-impounded car in return
for information. Rachel hacks into the Federal database and locates
the car. Tom delivers it to Korman.
En route to Italy, Sloane, thinking he's talking to Anna, asks how
she killed Sydney. After she says she shot Sydney in the back, Sloane
tells Peyton he wants to be the one to kill Anna.
At the parlour, Sark tells Sydney that the one-time monastery is
now the La Fossa maximum security prison, and the rose is located
in the Northwest isolation wing. Sark then triggers an explosion
and pretends to rob the cashier. The police take Sark and Sydney
in custody.
As Syd and Sark arrive at the prison, Vaughn and Dixon go underground
to rewire La Fossa's internal surveillance network and give Marshal
access. They locate Sydney in the isolation wing. Sark fakes illness
to escape from the guards and hacks into the system to open doors
for Sydney. Sydney runs down to the basement and sees a mural of
Page 47. An old man shows her a rose tattoo on his wrist.
Sloane arrives at the facility and asks the warden to release the
two Americans. Peyton intercepts the guard's phone call and gives
approves the release of Syd and Sark.
The old man gives Sydney an amulet, calling it Rambaldi's
greatest gift and curse as it is a defiance of nature itself. Syd
says she
has to stop the people looking for it. The old man assures her that
she can't and says it's is only a matter of time before "the
light ends." She runs back to her cell.
Peyton takes Sark while Sloane waits for Sydney in her cell. He
taser her and grabs the amulet. Sloane tells her that Sydney deserved
better than an anonymous bullet and strangles her. Syd pushes him
away.
In the APO office, Marshall remotely triggers an alarm to distract
Sloane. A guard arrives and tells Sloane to leave. Guards refuse
to let Sydney leave and beat her. Vaughn arrives to rescue her.
Tom meets Korman, who retrieves diamonds from his car. Tom asks
why a hit was put on his wife. Korman says that Tom was the actual
target. As Korman drives away, Tom presses a button on his watch
and Korman's car explodes.
In Sydney's apartment, she and Vaughn watch Isabelle
sleep. The phone rings - it's Sloane. Sloane tells her that he
knew "Anna" was
Sydney all along and, thanks to her, they have everything they need.
