The Enemy Walks In
Episode 1: The Enemy Walks In

[outside warehouse � Taipei]

(over necklace communicator)

JACK: Where the hell are you?

SYDNEY: I�m in the middle of Taipei. I just got free. Is Vaughn with you?

JACK: No, we haven�t heard from him. Sydney, you have to get to the plane now.

SYDNEY: Dad, I have to go back for him.

JACK: There�s no time! The Taiwanese authorities will check this airstrip.

SYDNEY: I can�t leave him behind. Hold the plane. I�m going back to the lab.

JACK: Sydney, wait!

[Sydney hangs up and leaves Jack looking disappointed and irritated]

WILL: Who�s Vaughn?


[cut to plane]

[Jack takes out a needle and injects it into Syd]

JACK: Okay, easy. What happened to the guy that shot you?

SYDNEY: There was no guy. (pause) It was Mom. And it didn�t seem like she worked for Khasinau. It seems that Khasinau works for her.

WILL: Excuse me? Did you just say you were shot by your mother?

JACK: Sit down!

(Syd�s cell phone rings and she picks it up)

SYDNEY: Hello?

FRANCIE: Hey, where are you?

SYDNEY: Just coming home from San Francisco. What�s up?

FRANCIE: Have you heard from Will?

SYD: Have I heard from Will? No.

FRANCIE: Well, me neither. There�s this story on the news right now. Will wrote a story in today�s paper that wasn�t supposed to get printed unless he went missing.

SYDNEY: What was Will�s story about?

FRANCIE: It�s about the murder of your fianc� and some conspiracy� and some group called SD-6.

JACK (shouting): What did you write about SD-6?

WILL: Nothing! Just the name! I don�t even know what it is! I just heard the name! Why? Do you what it is? Is it a group? Are they good? Are they bad? Do you work with them?


[on plane]

JACK: You and I need to assume Dixon�s reported you. The best move for us is for me to take full responsibility.

SYDNEY: What about Will?

JACK: You�re gonna have a hard time.


[Sloane�s office]

SLOANE: You gave Sydney the call sign �Freelancer�?

JACK: Yes, that�s right.

SLOANE: Why?

JACK: Because I didn�t trust you. Consider it a paternal instinct. I�m only telling you now because of Tippin�s article.

SLOANE: I should have had Tippin killed months ago.

JACK: Tippin�s kidnapping led us directly to Khasinau. Sydney destroyed their facility and now Khasinau�s organization is fractured. Those that didn�t lose their lives are on the run. This is an opportunity. I understand that I broke protocol, that the Alliance would have me killed for what I�ve done. But if I weren�t loyal to you, Arvin, to SD-6, I would not have returned.

SLOANE: What about Tippin?

JACK: That�s insignificant. He doesn�t know anything. And you can�t kill him now. It�ll only call attention. I will see to it that he never writes another article again.


[in some building]

JACK: The only way SD-6 will let you live is if you destroy the life you�ve got.

WILL: I understand that. But you can�t think of another way than this?

JACK: Yes, I can think of a number of other ways, but they all involve your burial.

WILL: Is that your idea of a joke? You�re morbid, Jack.

JACK: You will be taken to a drug house in South Central. An hour later there will be a raid. Remember the most critical thing is that you face the press yourself. If you don�t go public with this, you�re a dead man.

WILL: I�m scared.

JACK: I know. You ready?


[warehouse]

JACK: We just intercepted a call from one of Khasinau�s operatives. They made reference to something called �The Bible.�

SYDNEY: What is it?

JACK: A book, an operations manual for their whole cartel � contacts, weapons and tech inventory, objectives. It�s information that Khasinau and your mother need to rebuild their operation. If we retrieve this book, we can prevent that.

VAUGHN: Any idea where this Bible is?

JACK: It was Taipei. Apparently, when the lab was being destroyed, this operative who called Khasinau, grabbed the book, kept safe. He�s planning on handing it to Khasinau tomorrow afternoon at the port of Barcelona, pier 347.

SYDNEY: Does SD-6 know about this?

WEISS: That�s what so genius. The delay transmitter you planted, let�s us control the signal SD-6 receives. We didn�t let them hear the call.

JACK: You�re going to Spain to intercept the book. You leave in 30 minutes.


[Emily�s funeral]

(Jack hanging up his phone, as Syd walks up to him)

SYDNEY: Dad?

JACK: Devlin just called. The CIA had a walk-in. She just� surrendered. She said she wants to cooperate.

SYDNEY: Who?

JACK: Your mother.
