- Irina Derevko: [Irina's back in her cell] You must have a lot of questions.
- Sydney Bristow: Yeah.
- Irina Derevko: One thing that should not wait any longer is why I shot you in Taipei. The rebel leader, Gerard Cuvee... When you were in Taipei, he was in the next room watching to see if I would betray him or you. Shooting you in the shoulder, giving you time to escape, it was the only way I could think to maintain his trust and keep him from killing both of us.
- Michael Vaughn: I just don't think we should cut them loose.
- F.B.I. Asst. Director Kendall: Listen. Alive or dead, the mission failed. So if the Bristows are out there, they're on their own.
- Sydney Bristow: Deploy? Detonate?
- Michael Vaughn: "Activate." That's the word they used. Now, it might mean delivery, maybe detonation, we don't know. But we have to assume the worst since they got the control codes through SD-6.
- Sydney Bristow: And I got the control codes for SD-6 which means I can deactivate the nukes.
- Michael Vaughn: If you get there in time.
- Sydney Bristow: [to Vaughn] You know, some people go miniature golfing with their parents. We go to India and look for nukes.
- Arvin Sloane: What do you want?
- Mysterious Caller: One hundred million in bearer bonds.
- Arvin Sloane: This is about money?
- Mysterious Caller: Everything is about money. Instructions for the drop have been electronically mailed to you. You have twenty-four hours. Fail to deliver the bonds, and the next delivery will go to the Alliance.
- F.B.I. Asst. Director Kendall: Contact the Bristows, tell them to pull out immediately.
- Michael Vaughn: I have no way of initiating. Why?
- F.B.I. Asst. Director Kendall: The Indians found out the Pakastani rebels have acquired nukes. They're launching air strikes in twenty-four hours.
- Michael Vaughn: Look, you're probably going to say no to this but I want to go to India. I was stationed there for two years, I have relationships...
- F.B.I. Asst. Director Kendall: Go.
- Michael Vaughn: Go?
- F.B.I. Asst. Director Kendall: I'll have a military aircraft waiting. This is totally back channel.
- Michael Vaughn: You're just gonna... Are you trying to get rid of me?
- Alliance Member Ramon Veloso: Who else knew about your instruction to kill Emily?
- Arvin Sloane: Only the people in this room.
- Alliance Member Alain Christophe: You believe one of us may be behind this?
- Arvin Sloane: No. But someone has infiltrated our secure communications.
- Irina Derevko: [In India] So, Sydney, how's school?
- Sydney Bristow: I'm writing my dissertation... supposedly.
- Gerard Cuvee: Not to brag, but I'm kind of responsible for matchmaking you and Irina. Didn't she tell you? I was a supervisor at the KGB. I was the one who gave her the assignment to go to the US and marry a CIA officer. Now, you weren't the only prospect, of course. But you had the most potential. Ha! I actually thought it would dawn on you that a woman like this would never go for someone like you. Luckily for me, your ego was too big for that.
- Jack Bristow: She was putting on a show for Cuvee. Before she left, she put these in my hand. She told me they're using the cores to activate a Rambaldi artifact.
- Sydney Bristow: They're not detonating the nukes?
- Jack Bristow: Among the things Rambaldi experimented with was self-sustaining cell regeneration. This artifact they're opening today is reported to be Rambaldi's proof of endless life.
