Mea Culpa (con't)
[CIA, Field Ops]

Agent: Okay, team's in place in Denati Park. Got six armed officers stationed and waiting.

[Denati Park, shows each CIA agent.]

Agent: One by the fountain, two at the south entrance, one at the western gate, all snipers at the north end. Standing by
awaiting Bristow's arrival.  First sighting I take her to safety.

Vaughn: Alright, are you still scanning for gunmen?

Agent: Uh, yes sir, scan complete, no shooters have been twentied, got three operatives surrounding the park on lookout.

[Jack walking through CIA, finds an older agent, apparently a friend.]

Older Agent: Jack, you shou...

Jack: Take me to Field Ops.

[Back in Field Ops, Vaughn, Weiss, and another Agent are watching feed monitors of Denati Park]

Vaughn: Mr. Bristow...

Jack: Call them off.

Vaughn: Did you read Sloane's transmission? She'll be in the park any minute.

Jack: No execution has been ordered, this is a setup.

Vaughn: What are you talking about?

Jack: Sloane's transmission was set out on SD-6 server five, it was sent to you, Vaughn, they know someone is listening.
this is a test.

Vaughn: Yeah, well i'll tell ya what, we'll take a chance, get sydney out of there and we'll argue about this later.

Jack: You go in like this, you pull her out, it will only prove that you've intercepted Sloane's communique and Sydney will be
exposed.

Vaughn: You don't know that for a fact.

Jack: (to Vaughn) Why am I even talking to you? (To Older Agent) Lloyd, abort this mission.

Vaughn: Now wait a minute

Older Agent: We verified this order jack, if we pull back, you could be killing your daughter

Jack: You're killing her if you don't!

Vaughn: How can you be willing to risk this?

Jack: If Sydney makes her scheduled dead drop, does it successfully, and leaves the park, she will have proven herself loyal
to SD-6.

Older Agent: Have them hold until we give an order.

[Weiss puts on a headset]

Vaughn: No, no, no, now hold it! Hold it! This is Sydney's life

Weiss: [looks to Jack and Older Agent] Hold it..what are we doing?

Jack: You were meant to see that transmission, you're the only ones who saw it!

Vaughn: What if someone in that park is waiting to kill her if we don't do anything?

Jack: I know how Sloane works, he's bluffing!

[Tense looks all the way around the room.]

[Voice on radio: Alpha cam, come in]

Agent: Bristow's entering the park.

[Voice on radio: red jacket]

Agent: Who's this guy in the jacket?

[Voice on radio: Copy that, Alpha Three, we have an approaching hostile. Acquiring male target, 75 meters...]

Weiss: This could be the hit, this could be the guy, what are we doing here?

Vaughn: Promise me you're not wrong about this Jack.

Jack: Hold your positions.

Weiss: He could be going for a gun.

Agent: Prepare to take him out.

Vaughn: Stand by.

[Voice on radio: Copy that.]

Weiss: That's her dead drop.

Agent: Okay, she's out.  She's out of the park, she's cleared.

Old Agent: Good work Jack.

[Jack nods, leaves the room, not looking very enthusiastic.]

Weiss: Alright,  I just lost 30 lbs. Yeah man, I'm not kidding.
