TEXT: Krakow, Poland Plane lands. Inside airport. A woman talking on her cell phone. She's in the metal detector line. Sinclair: (to phone) I know. I know. I know. I'm simply exhausted. The engineer's meeting went over by about 2 and a half hours. And of course, I missed my flight, but luckily I was able to rebook the same day. Oh, you know what? Francis called, and, um, they want to publish my paper. (laughs) I know. I know. (picks up her bags) Well, you know, we'll celebrate when I get home. You know what? I've got to go, sweetheart. Tell the girls I have a little something for them. Give them a kiss. All right, love you too. Bye. (ahhh, so sweet) She hangs up. She puts her bags on the conveyer belt and walks through the metal detector. It beeps. Guys in military uniform watch her. Guy 1: Excuse me. (to Sinclair) Place your luggage and shoes on the table please. Sinclair: Oh, me? (she does what she's told) Guy 2: And your shoes. Sinclair: Oh. (she smiles) They rifle through her things and pull out a...teddy bear. Sinclair: Oh, it's just for my daughter. Guy 1: I will need you to follow me. Sinclair (confused): I don't understand, It's just a bear. Guy 1: This way. (he walks away) Sinclair: Hang on. Can I have my shoes back, please? (she follows) Excuse me what is going on? (bunker) Am I not allowed to have a toy? Y'know, I'd like some answers out of the 2 of you. I'm an American citizen. Guy 1: Don't worry, Dr. Sinclair. Sinclair: Hang on a second. The other guy looked at my passport. You didn't. How did you know my name? Guy 1: Your luggage tag. Sinclair: Ugh. (barefoot she stepped in water) Oh, this is great. This
SUMMARY:
A physicist specializing in Quantum Electrodynamics is abducted in Kraków. In custody, Roberts, the mysterious man makes contact with "Marvin Sloane's" second in command to arrange a meeting to deliver the coil vital to what the impostor Sloane is building, but the meeting goes awry and the coil is stolen. Sloane convinces all that an impostor is responsible for the recent activities. After promising Nadia that he is trust-worthy, Sloane is allowed into DSR to examine the Rambaldi artifacts to determine the impostor's next move. Sloane loses it during the recovery mission and bludgeons a man to death for assuming that the Rambaldi technology is related to eternal life. The impostor escapes, but his power source (an immense sphere seen in the season 1 episode "Almost 30 Years") remains. This episode make mention of a fictional chemical element, Zanthium 242.
