Episode 5: Doppelganger
In São
Paulo, Sydney evades Sawaris bodyguard after watching
a paramedic team implant a bomb into the pacemaker of UCO
speaker Patel. When Sydney awakens in a run-off canal, she
contacts Dixon, who grabs a dazed Patel at the UCO conference,
and steals an ambulance. As Dixon proceeds to surgically extract
the bomb, they are being pursued by Jacqnoud, who controls
the detonator to the device. While Sydney drives, Dixon removes
the bomb just as Jacqnoud activates it and launches
it beneath his car abruptly ending the chase.
In Los
Angeles, Francie tells Sydney that they are throwing a big
Halloween party at Sydney's apartment.
While
setting up, Will tells Francie that he's been investigating
the death of Danny, whom he has learned was to be on a flight
to Hong Kong, not Singapore, and seated next to a woman named
Kate Jones - neither of whom made the flight.
Will meets
up with the mystery woman, and has clearly done his homework
she even admits to having had an affair with Danny.
But Will stuns her when he points out that, according to her
social security number, Kate Jones died in 1973 and
she races away from the meeting place.
Jeroen
Schiller works for the Hensel Corporation with information
on a vaccine against biological warfare...and Sydney and Dixon's
mission is to help Schiller get safe passage into the US.
Later,
Vaughn introduces Sydney to CIA agent Paul Kelvin, who has
been chosen based upon his resemblance to the German. Arriving
in Berlin, Sydney uploads the files from Schiller's computer
to a remote server, disguised as a network supervisor, before
making their escape. Upon removing Schiller from Hensel, agent
Kelvin, in further disguise, trades places with Schiller
without Dixon's knowledge and doubles as the SD-6 captive,
while Schiller returns home with the CIA.
Back
at SD-6, Kelvin feeds Sloane a partial computer program that
will also run a CIA control into their network, enabling a
"back door" for them to see into the SD-6 database.
As Sloane questions the CIA operative about the location of
a vaccine, which is being perfected into an inhaler form
Kelvin realizes he does not know about this...But Sloane is
even more suspicious, when he also learns that Sydney had
also changed Schiller's drop-off location at the last second.
Knowing
that her cover would be blown if Kelvin doesn't learn the
location of the inhaler, Sydney asks Jack to assist, after
Schiller reveals the location to the CIA.
With
Sloane viewing on a monitor, Jack quietly feeds Kelvin the
location before breaking his arm and passing a convincing
message to Sloane about his SD-6 loyalties and Kelvin
screams out the location of the plant Badenweiler,
Germany.
Sloane
sends Sydney and Dixon to Badenweiler to retrieve the inhaler,
and then destroy the plant so no one else will have the vaccine.
Vaughn informs Sydney that the CIA will rendezvous with her
in the building, make a switch with the inhalers and disable
the explosive to save the building and its contents. But before
departing, Sydney also learns from Vaughn that her father may
also be working for the FBI...and she no longer knows where
her father's allegiances lie.
In
Badenweiler, Sydney disables Dixon's bomb, makes the switch
with the CIA agents in the building and gets out. Dixon hits
the detonator, and of course, nothing happens. But prepared
with a second detonator device, that Sydney knew nothing about,
Dixon completes their mission by blowing up the building -
with the CIA agents still inside...
