In Alias, staircases never have an easy life - in
this it's in Belfast and
lots of people are running down it while some officer types are running
up |
|
In fact, most of the people are running out of the building |
|
|
|
to get away from one of those plasma bombs from the last episode
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately the bomb squad is not too successful defusing this one |
|
|
|
which is what the CIA is talking about in their briefing |
|
|
|
Dixon explains that the guy who did the dirty deed sent a message to
the Covenant that he's willing to sell them the bomb for the next
48 hours only- after that the bomb goes on the open market and
there's another demo
|
|
Bomber's name is Daniel Ryan and just to prove how good it is, Ryan also
sent intel to the bomb squad in Belfast so that they could get
there and prove it's non-defusable
|
|
|
|
which Marshall confirms, and says the bomb's also more destructive than
the one
he's got to play with from the last episode
|
|
|
|
|
Jack says two options - either trick Ryan by pretending to be the Covenant
and getting him to give them the bomb, or arrest Ryan and do some
direct persuading
|
|
Syd suggests bringing back the guest star who played the Covenant defector
a few episodes ago and ask him for intel about Ryan
|
|
|
|
And so the scruffy defector Leonid Lysenker appears once more, full of
intel on
Ryan's Covenant protocols, full of love for American television and full
of disdain for
for basic North American cigarettes
|
|
|
|
Meanwhile, Weiss and Vaughn plan the extraction of their guest star bomber
from a pub in Ireland. Weiss takes a moment to ask where the heck
is Lauren, and how's the Vaughnsters' marriage
|
|
Vaughn starts to answer, not in this episode and uh ...marvelous ...
when Sydney shows up
|
|
|
|
leaving Sydney saying quickly, got the Lysenker info and we'd better
tell Dixon to get
this episode rolling so I can get out of this embarassing situation
