| 1-02: SO IT BEGINS | ||||||||||||
| Sydney: I have to tell you a whole bunch of people you need to stop so we can wipe out SD-6. The first one�s Anini Hassan. He�s Sloane�s Arms Dealer. He operates out of Memphis. Vaughn: (sings) Walkin� in Memphis� walkin� with my feet ten feet off of Beale� Sydney: (sniffles) Vaughn: What? Sydney: My fianc�e used to sing that badly� Sydney: Listen buster, the only way we�ll get this done is my way. I�m calling the shots here! Vaughn: You?!? You only just joined the CIA � I�m your handler, you�ll do as I say! Sydney: Aren�t you a junior officer? Vaughn: I�m higher ranked than you are, Miss Poopy-head! Sydney: Dum-dum! Vaughn: Look at this map showing all known links to SD-6! Now do you get the picture? Sydney: Wow. That�s a big list. Vaughn: And it keeps growing. This is not about cutting off an arm of the monster, this is about killing the monster! Sydney: �monster killing? I think you�re on the wrong show, buddy. Get transferred over to Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Angel. Vaughn: (mopes) Way to ruin my big dramatic speech� Vaughn: Okay, now to complete the illusion that you�re really donating blood in this van instead of plotting SD-6�s demise, we�ll need to drain some blood from you. Sydney: Couldn�t you just slap a smiley-face band-aid on my arm and be done with it? Vaughn: Yes. But your whining�s been annoying me all afternoon, so now I just have the urge to stab you with a needle. Sydney: Meanie. Sydney: Thanks for letting me move in with you. Francie: No problem � just one question. Why�d you wait until three months after Danny�s death to decide to move? Sydney: I dunno. Maybe J.J decided that he couldn�t fit it into the first episode, what with everything else that happened. Francie: Hey yeah, maybe that�s what happened to my law-school-graduate boyfriend! Sydney: Hmmm. Lawyer, eh? So I guess you�re an evil boyfriend, huh? Charlie: Am not! But I just got offered a job at Wolfram & Hart! Sydney: Definitely evil. Sydney: Will! Why are you rummaging through my underwear drawer? Will: Errr� I was� ooh, I know! I was looking for my sister�s passport. Sydney: I gave that back to you yesterday. Will: Oh yeah. Darn. Hey, are you ever going to tell me what that was all about, anyway? Sydney: Maybe in about 20 weeks or so. Will: (whines) But I wanna know nooooow! Marshall: Err� Sydney� I�m not entirely sure how to say this� Sydney: Marshall, you can tell me anything! Marshall: In that case� (censored filthy fantasy involving Sydney, sex, ice cubes, and goats) Sydney: Eww! I was expecting something more along the lines of, �Welcome back, sorry about your fianc�!� Marshall: Me too. You kinda threw me with that whole, �You can tell me anything,� bit. Sloane: I want you and Dixon to retrieve a stolen, twenty-year old file for me. This week�s guest villain is about to buy it from some dude. Sydney: What�s in the file? Sloane: If I knew that, I wouldn�t need the file, now would I? Idiot. Marshall: Yes? Sloane: No, not you Marshall. But whilst you�re here, tell these two lunkheads what you�ve got for them. Marshall: Ooh, fun! Okay, I�ve got something here you can use to make your enemies fall asleep! Dixon: Handy. Some kind of technical device you�ll implant in a convenient ring or something? Marshall: Naah, I don�t have the budget for that. Just use this bottle of chloroform. Or if that doesn�t work, try this baseball bat. Sydney: I do like to smack people around with a heavy piece of wood. Marshall: Baseball bat it is then. Sloane: Sydney, before you go, I want to show you something. It�s one of my most valuable tools for the work we do. Jack: Hello Sydney. Sydney: Well, you were right about the tool part, at any rate. Sydney�s brain: Okay, like Vaughn said to do, I wrote down my SD-6 mission on a brown paper bag, then I rang the phone number and pushed the number corresponding to the garbage can I just dropped the bag in. Guess I�m done here. (leaves) Vaughn: (pulls bag out of garbage can) Jackpot. Old lady: (slaps Vaughn) You disgust me! Go buy your own pornography! Vaughn: (meekly) Sorry ma�am� (Phone rings) Sydney: Hello, Joey�s pizza. Vaughn: Ahh� Syd? I�m supposed to ask if you�re Joey�s Pizza. It�s a code for you to meet me so I can give you your counter-mission, remember? Sydney: Crap. My bad habit of answering as a random place of business for my own amusement just backfired on me! Vaughn: Whatever. Just make sure you have the files when you get back to the airport. I�ll do a brush-past, get the files, copy them, and then give them back to you when you get to the cab line. Sydney: You�re just looking for an excuse to feel me up, aren�t you? Vaughn: Am I that easy to see through? Sydney: (through the com in Dixon�s ear) Dixon, is that this week�s guest villain you�re talking to? Dixon: That�s him. Sydney: Are the files in that envelope he just passed to you? Dixon: Yes, on two floppy disks. This Week�s Guest Villain: Why are you talking to yourself? Dixon: Huh? Sydney�s brain: I have to cause a distraction so that this week�s guest villain doesn�t notice me stealing the disks. I could go over and spill my drink on him� or� T.W.G.V.: My god, woman! I love that blue rubber dress you�re wearing! Sydney: You do? (stealthily replaces the disks with coasters) Thank you! T.W.G.V.: It�s so incredibly tight! How can you breathe in that? Sydney: �good question! (passes out) Vaughn: I�ve got the disks! Hurry! We have to copy them before Sydney gets to her cab! Technician: (reading off computer screen) �Error #404�� Vaughn: You�re using Windows 95 at a time like this?!? Sydney�s brain: Here comes Vaughn with the disks� how do I distract Dixon so he doesn�t see him give them back to me? Sydney: Look behind you, a three-headed monkey! Dixon: (turns around) Where? Where? (Vaughn gives Sydney the disks) Sydney: He must have run away. Dixon: Are you trying to distract me? Sydney: Noooooo� Sydney: Well, that�s a day�s work well done. Now I think I�ll race home, put my engagement ring back on, have a bubble bath, and just generally feel sorry for myself. Sydney�s brain: But weren�t you supposed to go out with your ignorant friends tonight to celebrate Charlie�s new job? Sydney: Curses, foiled again! Will: I�ve been researching Danny�s death for you, even though you told me to not ask questions or try to find out anything about the mysterious circumstances. Did you know he was going to catch a flight to Singapore that night? Sydney: Whaa?!? Err� I mean yes, of course I knew that! I mean� waaaaaaah� Danny� Will: Geeze, all right! I won�t bring it up again! Sydney: Thank you. Will: (under his breath) Crybaby. Sydney: What? Will: Nothing. Sloane: The files told us that some guy in the U.S. named Milovich Ivanov has a nuclear bomb. I want you to go get it. Now. Sydney: Do I have enough time before my plane leaves to write on a used porno bag, make a phonecall, and throw it away? Sloane: No. Sydney: Damn. What about just a phonecall? Sloane: 10 seconds. Sydney: (into phone) I�m going to see Ivanov. Vaughn: Who? Sydney: Read the files, dumbass! Vaughn: Oh, that Ivanov. Hey wait� wow. That�s a really good imitation of a dial tone you�re doing there. Sydney? Hello? Hello? Sydney�s brain: Okay, this is Ivanov�s address� but why would he live in a cemetery? (sees Ivanov�s tombstone) Ohhh. There it is. They really should have written down his apartment number for me as well. Sydney: (opens Ivanov�s coffin) Excuse me Mr. Ivanov, but I have to talk to you about� say, has anyone ever told you that you like just like a nuclear bomb? One that�s just been activated, and has two minutes left on the timer? �oh crap. Sydney: (into phone) Blue wire! Red wire! Green and white wire! Purple wire! Cyan wire! Marshall: Why are you telling me a bunch of different coloured wires? Sydney: Because I�m sitting on a ticking nuclear bomb! You�re supposed to tell me which wire to cut to stop it! Marshall: Oh, right. What was that last one? Sydney: Cyan! Marshall: What the hell�s cyan? Sydney: It�s a kind of light bluey-green! WHICH WIRE DO I CUT?!?! Marshall: Stop yelling at me! (bursts into tears) Vaughn: Hey Syd, I just wanted to tell you that you did a good job disarming that bomb. Sydney: Thanks Vaughn. Vaughn: I also wanted to congratulate you on handing it over to SD-6, who then passed it on to Anini Hassan. Sydney: No problem! �wait, that was sarcasm, wasn�t it? Sydney: I have to go get back that bomb I lost. Make something up so Sloane doesn�t find out. Jack: I still can�t believe you did that. I thought I taught you to take responsibility for your bombs! Sydney: Say what? Jack: Damn, I�m blabbing secrets no-one�s supposed to find out about yet. I�m so bad at this. Sydney: Riiiight� anyways, did you buy a ticket to Singapore for Danny the night he died? Jack: Yes. I tried to get him out of there before they killed him, but I was just too late. Sydney: Whaddya mean too late?!? Jack: Do you have any idea what the traffic is like in L.A. at that time of night? Cut your old man some slack, would ya? Jack: Sydney�s taking a few days off. Sloane: Why? Jack: Beats me. It�s a girl thing. How should I know? Sydney: (into phone) Okay, I just arrived in Memphis� wait a minute. Why is there no desert here? Vaughn: Aww geeze. You didn�t mean Memphis in Egypt, did you? Sydney: Duh! Does Hassan sound like a name any American would use? Sydney: (into com) Okay, in the right Memphis this time, and I just opened the bomb up. I�m holding the core in my hand. Random, As-Yet-Unbeaten Guard: And I�m holding a revolver in mine. Sydney: Goshdarnit. |
