Outside, Vaughn's making progress with the panel. Downstairs, Syd's still fighting it out with Baddie. Oh, and it's ALL Jennifer Garner, by the way. If it isn't, then her stunt double looks just like her. She drops Baddie with a solid kick, only to have another Baddie enter the room. Before we can even think, "How's she gonna handle THIS one?" Syd looks to her right, spies a big-ass globe, and kicks it directly into Baddie 2. Again. That was Garner. Or a really good job by the guy with access to Photoshop. The gun's out of Baddie 2's hands, but he's still up. Syd leaps up and does a flying kick to his head. I'm willing to bet that wasn't Garner, but I don't care at this point. I'm just loving this scene.
Baddie 2 responds to the head kick by grabbing a mace off the wall and going to town. Syd's the mayor of this town, however, and she's not letting any invaders past the gate. There's kicking and punching and Syd grabs a silver tea tray and basically shoves it up Baddie 2's crotch. Then she delivers a beautiful roundhouse kick that drops him for good. Back upstairs, Vigilant Vaughn is still going at the damn code panel. He finally opens it and enters to find Viadro, still in the chair, bleeding profusely from several wounds. "The Passenger…" says Viadro, as Vaughn looks around the room for an enemy. "I have betrayed her…" Vaughn looks up at the ceiling and sees a trap door, open. Um…yeah. Because panic rooms are all about TRAP DOORS. Like, what? Did anyone SEE Panic Room? I mean, no one WANTED to see it, but it's been on cable, right? No trap doors in there, okay? NONE. Sigh. Where's the wine?
Vaughn starts to untie Viadro. "I have betrayed her," says Viadro, obviously in pain. "Betrayed who?" asks Vaughn. "Years spent protecting her…and now she's alone…" "Who's 'she'? Who are you protecting?" Sydney enters and breathlessly tells Vaughn that the guards were Order of Rambaldi. "You're the one," says Viadro. "The one from the prophecy." He reaches out and grabs Syd's gun and points it at her. Syd backs off. Vaughn points his gun at Viadro. "Drop it!" shouts Vaughn. "You will not hurt her," says Viadro. BAM! Vaughn shoots Viadro dead. Well. That was smart. You couldn't have just shot him in the hand, thus disarming him? I mean, at least then you could've found out just WHO THE PASSENGER WAS. I appreciate that Vaughn was protecting his non-girlfriend, but dude? THINK A LITTLE BEFORE YOU SHOOT. Okay?
Bomani's Boom Boom Room. Moronen enters and walks in slo-mo across what looks to be a balcony. She walks down some stairs and toward Bomani. She hands him a disc. "Here it is," she says smugly. "Everything you need to find The Passenger." Boom Boom looks at it. "You went to great lengths to secure this information," he thrums. His voice thrums, people. It does. "Thank you." Moronen's all, so? Still think I'm useful? Boom Boom's all, oh, sure, yes, of course. Except for this part where I'm going to pull a gun on you and tell you the Covenant has no more use for your services. Moronen looks panicked until there are shots fired from over the balcony. Boom Boom goes down. Sark was the shooter. Oh, what? We sacrificed a hot guy for MORONEN? That's just soooo wrong. Sark looks down at Moronen. "I went to Los Angeles to warn you, not kill you," he says. "Perhaps in the future, you should try trusting me more." Well, I trust you now. Does that mean you'll kill Moronen for me? Because that would be just greaaaat. Moronen breathes a sigh of relief. Don't get too relaxed, there, Moronen. Your days are numbered.
