“Repercussions” · Season 3
In this episode: Sydney Bristow (5), Lauren Reed (4), Arvin Sloane (1), Marshall Flinkman (1)
A member of Walker's team caught Michael; I still don't know how. Walker ID'd him as CIA --
-- and stabbed him and left him for dead. I already know all this. It's in the briefing. Thank you.
Lauren, that's not . . . Walker had a gun to Michael's head. He was about to pull the trigger. I took his knife . . . I stabbed him myself.
I don't know about you, but I can't work to the best of my abilities while wondering whether or not I'm being polite enough to my husband's ex-girlfriend.
You don't need to be polite with me. We're both past formalities.
Then I'll be blunt. I want you to request a transfer to another field office.
...
I know we're being blunt, but was that a threat? You don't have the authority to have me transferred.
The NSC will support me, when they learn that our working together is compromising their fight against the Covenant.
You've told Bomani you'd work for the Covenant?
Yes. And now I'm telling you that I'm in the position to be a double agent. Working for the Covenant but loyal to the CIA ...What is it, Sydney?
[in disbelief] This is classic ...
Now as far as our technology can detect - and these are next gen tests, as high-end as it gets - he's not lyin', folks.
If there's someone who can fool those tests, it's Sloane.
Yeah, well, in theory, yes. But in practice, he'd really have to be using the next gen's next gen lie detector defeating tech, which frankly, even I can't imagine.
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.
It also appears that Bomani will kill Sloane if we interfere with his plans.
And who here would lose sleep over that?
