Sydney Bristow quotes from Alias

Sydney

I want the truth. Start with your name.

Vaughn

Andre Michaux. I'll tell you the rest on the way.

Sydney

You're waltzing!

Vaughn

Yup. I've been practicing for our wedding.

Sydney

With whom?

Vaughn

Weiss.

Sydney

I always liked the name Owen.

Vaughn

Owen. Sounds like something you name a gerbil.

Sydney

Clementine is cute.

Vaughn

For a fruit.

Sydney

It's also a name.

Vaughn

It's also a campfire song.

Sydney

Okay, you don't like that one. How about Isabelle?

Vaughn

Isabelle Vaughn. Isabelle Bristow Vaughn.

Sydney

That's pretty. I like that.

Vaughn

Me too.

Sydney

I understand why you're reluctant. You're number eight on the CIA's most wanted list, I get it. But you have to understand: these people killed my fiancé, the father of my child. I'm going to enlist every resource available to immobilize them, and if that means that this is the last time you and I see each other, that is fine by me. Just tell me how you want to do it.

Number eight?

Sydney

Yes.

I'm slipping. Used to be number six... You're exactly like Michael said you were.

Sydney

You called him "Michael."

Yeah.

Don't worry. He was crazy about you.

Sydney

Do you recognize me?

No.

Sydney

Four months ago, you murdered a man, Michael Vaughn. Do you remember? I do. I was there. It'll be burned into my memory for the rest of my life as the day my child lost its father... So you can imagine what I'd like to do to you. Lucky for you, there's someone I want even more. Tell me where I can find Gordon Dean.

Is this whole routine supposed to scare me? I–I do this for a living.

Sydney

It's a funny thing about pregnancy – hormones. Whoo. I woke up today... [she gives Curtis a dark, threatening look] ...feeling pretty hormonal.

Sydney

You're scared. You should be. No one is coming to rescue you.

Rachel

I am an operative for the U.S. Government, so unless you want to start a war with the CIA, I would suggest–

Sydney

Here's your next problem, Rachel: we're CIA.

Rachel

Well, then this must be some ... big misunderstanding. If you're CIA, we're on the same side.

Sydney

[to Grace] Call Langley and verify her story.

Rachel

You can't. We're off-book, black ops. Langley won't verify us.

Sydney

Well, that's convenient.

Sydney

Dean took you under his wing. He convinced you that you were so important, you just had to be out there, helping him save the world. How am I doing?

Rachel

You read my file.

Sydney

No, I didn't. Thirteen years ago, the same thing happened to me. Only I had been lied to. What I was told was the CIA was in reality a criminal organization. I think you've been told the same lie.

Rachel

How can you people sleep after something like this?

Sydney

You just learn to take it where you can get it, I guess.

Sydney

He suspects it's an access key for a secure network.

Rachel

So, we just have to find out which network. Well, luckily there are only ten billion secure networks in the world.

Rachel

Eating dirt. I just hit him with a shovel.

Sydney

A shovel? Is he conscious?

Rachel

Yeah, I think so.

Sydney

Then hit him again.

Jack

You should know, when it comes to Vaughn ... I take it quite personally.

Sydney

I know, Dad.

Jack

We're going to fix this.

Sydney

Wait a minute; don't tell me you cook.

Vaughn

There are a lot of things about me you don't know.

Sydney

Do you clean, too?

Vaughn

I've been known to. Why? Are you thinking of hiring me?

Sydney

Why would I hire you when I got you for free?

You tracked me with the radio.

Sydney

Not really. You're just predictable.

Sydney

I can fend for myself.

Dixon

But you're not just fending for yourself, you're fending for two. [Glances at Syd] Let's be honest Syd, right now you waddle.

Sydney

I don't waddle.

Dixon

Oh ho ho, yes you do.

Sydney

I'll admit I may be a little less graceful, but I don't waddle.

Dixon

You're right, [Syd scoffs] actually it's more of a teeter.

Jack

You do not leave edged weapons within the reach of children.

Sydney

She's four weeks old, Dad.

Jack

Particularly young Bristow women.

Sydney

She can't even hold her head up. I think we're safe.
