Sydney Bristow quotes from Alias

Sydney

Okay. Just so someone has said it: in the past two years, Sloane has obtained a pardon based mainly on the capture of a criminal who is now free. In addition, Sloane will be allowed to openly participate in Covenant activities, based on the promise that he will inform us of those activities. One could argue that he's just pulled off the con job of the century.

Lauren

It also appears that Bomani will kill Sloane if we interfere with his plans.

Sydney

And who here would lose sleep over that?

Sloane

I miss LA. I miss Emily. I miss the friendship with your father. [sighs] I miss your confidence and trust. Perhaps, I can get it back someday?

Sydney

You will never have my confidence and trust ... or my father's friendship and respect ... ever.

Sloane

Sydney, I was very pleased when Dixon said you'd agreed to be my handler.

Sydney

It was an assignment, not an agreement - the way a janitor doesn't agree to clean a toilet. But as your handler, you'll do as I say, when I say it. I select your assignments; I design your missions. I control you, not the other way around.

Sloane

Is that what you used to let Vaughn do? Control you?

Sydney

You will set up a meeting with Sark and Allison. You'll explain to them that their travel plans have been compromised. You'll then offer them assistance in revising their arrangements.

Sloane

And pass the information along to you.

Sydney

That won't be necessary. You'll be wearing a wire.

Sloane

And if they discover that it's a setup?

Sydney

Then I get to hear them kill you.

Sloane

By the way, you look beautiful.

Sydney

Spare me.

Sloane

You know, Sydney, we should dance.

Sydney

Like hell.

Sloane

There was a time you trusted me.

Sydney

That was before I knew who you were . . . That was before I knew who I was.

Jack

Sloane gave you a key, which he claims was sent to him some time before you woke up in Hong Kong.

Sydney

Yeah, his claim was pretty convincing: it was written in my handwriting.

Jack

Remember when I told you that during the time you were missing, I contacted your mother? That cipher text was encoded using a method that she devised.

Sydney

What does this mean? That I was in contact with Mom during the two years I was gone?

Sydney

If the NSC wants to find me, they will. Look, I was someone else for two years, Vaughn - someone I don't even remember. What am I supposed to do now? Spend the rest of my life in hiding?

Vaughn

Between that and a lobotomy, there isn't a choice!

Sydney

I can't keep running forever.

Vaughn

I'll do everything I can to make sure you won't have to.

Sydney

Vaughn, why are you doing this? My life is already a disaster ... now yours is, too.

Vaughn

What happened between us - everything. The way it is ... isn't anyone's fault, Sydney. And even though everything's changed, some things don't. I'm not gonna lose you twice.

[to Sydney] Your personality profile reveals your one major weakness: empathetic suffering is harder for you to sustain than physical torture. So ... thanks for caring.

Sydney

You better make sure I'm a vegetable when you're done with me...

Sydney

What happens if what we're looking for isn't metal?

Jack

Then we're screwed; it isn't an unfamiliar situation.

Lauren

I know how hard this might be for you ...

Sydney

That was for turning me in to Lindsey.

Be aware that if you encounter a new memory, it might be traumatic.

Sydney

But it won't necessarily be real.

Oh, it will be to you.

Sydney

I can't help it, I just miss you. I do.

Vaughn

You know we can't do this.

Sydney

Give me a break, it's a dream - we can do whatever we want. At least, I can.

Checking in?

Will

[in a British accent, dressed as a rock star] Of course. I'm here, she's here. We made it.

And you are ... ?

Sydney

We're the next big thing.

Sydney

It was a little over the top.

Will

Over the top? I'm wearing seat covering, there is no "over the top."

Will

You have to admit, my accent was pretty good. It was, like, early Stones.

Sydney

I thought it was Australian.

Sydney

You're part of this?

Kendall

Well, that all depends on which part you're referring to.

Sydney

You're Covenant.

Kendall

No, no, no. That wouldn't go over too well at home.

Kendall

We need to talk about the past two years.

Sydney

As you may be aware, Mr. Kendall, I have no recollection of that time.

Kendall

But I do.

Sydney

You've known all this time . . .

Kendall

Yep.

Sydney

Then why haven't you said anything?

Kendall

Because you asked me not to.

Sydney

Can you locate the cube?

Marshall

Well, no, not exactly, but I can narrow it down to a ten-yard radius.

Sydney

Marshall, that's called locating it.
