(He hangs up.) (Marshall sneezes.) (Sydney is surprised.) Cut to Sydney's face the look she's wearing is very reminiscent of the one Vaughn wore during Sydney's high speed drive through Zurich to get to the bank in A Free Agent. He has two cuts on his forehead and one on his cheek from where Bomani cuffed him in the van. Jack: Another job I'll contact Walker myself, posing as a client. Simon: Yeah. Sydney Lauren my life is in your hands (Sloane almost looks as if he's playing a game of chess here like he's already six plays ahead in his head.) Sydney: The Covenant already picked up the weapons? Vaughn's awake.
Plan: A: Vaughn; Q: Whose life hangs in the balance? A: Lauren; Q: Who butts heads with Sydney after learning of her role in Vaughn's stabbing? A: his stabbing; Q: What did Lauren learn she played a part in? A: Sloane; Q: Who is kidnapped by Kazari Bomani? A: The Covenant; Q: What group is Kazari Bomani a kingpin in? A: Jack's cover; Q: What is jeopardized when Jack meets with Simon to dig up information on Sydney's missing two years? A: Marshall; Q: Who is sent on his second mission with Sydney? Summary: While Vaughn's life hangs in the balance, Lauren butts heads with Sydney after learning the part she played in his stabbing. Meanwhile, Sydney further questions Sloane's allegiances after he is kidnapped by Kazari Bomani, a kingpin in The Covenant; Jack's cover is jeopardized when he meets with Simon to dig up information on Sydney's missing two years; and Marshall is sent on his second mission with Sydney, posing as a high-stakes, southern gambler.
