Wendy Kroy: I thought you drank to forget.
Regina: Well, that too, yes. Why do you drink?
Wendy Kroy: Because it's there.
Regina: Good answer.
So, Syd thinks that using "Michael" will pull Vaughn out of his vengeful tailspin, but no go. He's dead set on making his wife pay, and nothing Syd says or does will stop him. Not even reminding him that he'll be arrested for murder. Which, really, if he gets rid of the body in an efficient manner, is a totally moot point. Or, as Joey Tribbiani would say, "That's a moo point." Syd keeps on talking, however, trying to plead to the softer side of Vaughn, but just then Moronen pulls up, and Vaughn just…hangs up on Syd. Seriously. It's that clipped. Syd's all, baby, don't do this, I love you, if you do this, and you get away with it, it'll haunt you forever and I don't wanna lose you aga-- "I gotta go." Click. Heh. For some reason, I found that really funny.
Moronen parks her car and runs into a building as Vaughn and a fresh crop of forehead wrinkles glower at her. He sort of stalks toward her in the rain and, yeah, even though he's all murderous and shit, he still looks really hot. You know, with the rain dripping down his face and he's so focused and…I think there might be something wrong with me. I can't think about that right now because now Vaughn's inside the building, dripping all over the nice concrete floors. He's not even bothering to hide as far as I can tell, and he's just standing there watching Moronen talk to some computer geek about the Rambaldi equation. Computer Geek has managed to decipher the encrypted words or whatever, and he's come up with a longitude and a latitude. Vaughn pulls out his spy camera and captures the coordinates on digital. "What the hell is in Palermo?" asks Computer Geek. Well, if you must know, there are over 500 palaces, churches, convents, and monasteries, plus, um, seven theatres. So there's lots to do. In Palermo. And stuff.
Moronen's all, none of your damn business, actually. Computer Geek's all, okay, whatever, just gimme my money. Moronen's all, how 'bout I give you a few bullets instead? And she doesn't wait for an answer. For some reason, Vaughn looks mildly shocked at this event. Like, dude? What'd you think she was, a volunteer candy striper? She almost killed YOU, dude. Let's assume that she's used to pulling the trigger. So, Moronen picks up a black briefcase and leaves the dead geek behind. She makes her way to the exit. She walks down some stairs and is about to hit the door when Vaughn hits her instead. With a crowbar. And says, "Hi, honey," with a grimace. And then hits her again. HEE.
