“A Free Agent” · Season 2
In this episode: Sydney Bristow (4), Michael Vaughn (2), Arvin Sloane (2), Marshall Flinkman (1), Marcus Dixon (1), Director Kendall (1)
I've had two years of perspective! I am through letting Arvin Sloane control my life and I don't need your approval to resign! I told you as a courtesy!
Well, then, I will pay you the courtesy of informing you that if you leave this agency, you forfeit the clearance to see your mother.
Ah... you must be the man that Sark told me about. The man that Sydney was willing to kill me for.
She would have killed you for a lot less.
Marshall? I'm Michael Vaughn. Welcome to the CIA.
[smiles nervously] Heard that one before.
[smiles] Well, this time it's for real. [gestures for Marshall to turn] We have a desk set up for you.
[turns] Syd!
How are you?
I'm fine, except every few moments I fight the urge to weep openly. But that's normal, right?
Hello?
Congratulations, Sydney. You have so many things to celebrate today. I, myself, am still coping with the pain and disappointment of learning that you and Jack were double agents. The two people I trusted most in the world.
...
You don't really think it was a coincidence that I happened to be away these past two weeks, do you? The intel that you acquired that allowed the CIA to take down the Alliance -- I provided that. My involvement with the Alliance is merely a means to an end.
Why are you telling me this?
Because knowing that I'm alive is going to tempt you to come after me. Don't. We've helped set each other free, Sydney. And as much as I wish you well, I will end your life if you get in my way.
...
[On the phone] Our first honest conversation, Sydney, and you have nothing to say?
Listen to me, you son of a bitch! You have been a plague on my life. You repulse me! Every time I sat across from you, listening to your lies, all I could do was fantasize about slashing your throat!
How long have you known?
Two years. I wanted to tell you so many times, but I was ordered not to. The CIA had no way to verify what I knew in my heart was true -- that you would never consider working for a man like Arvin Sloane.
We were partners. You lied to me, then chose to tell me the truth when it was convenient for you. I never want to see you again.
