Syd makes it unscathed -- shocker -- into Kolokof's house. She moves forward, seeing some flames to the left of the foyer. She hears footsteps, sees something in her peripheral vision, and reacts, launching herself onto the escaping Kolokof. She nails him, but he kicks her off. She retreats, and he brandishes a stun gun. She tries to relieve him of the stun gun by a powerful roundhouse kick with her left leg, but he foresees this and evades, only to hit Syd directly in her solar plexus with the electric force. Syd falls back as Kolokof blabbles something at her in Hungarian or some shit. He moves toward her, obviously ready to finish her off, but Syd has other plans and shoves him away, placing him directly in some water feature he unwisely had installed in his hallway, the stun gun providing enough electricity to electrocute him within an inch of his life.
Syd hauls his electrocuted ass out just as the CIA dudes make their way in. They're all, you good? Syd's all, yeah, it's him, it's Kolokof. The CIA dudes pick up Kolokof, presumably still alive, and haul his ass outta there. Syd just breathes heavily and looks down on a blue-tinged stump that sits on a small table. She approaches it, somehow recognizing it as something familiar to her. Without even blinking, she places her hands around the base and quickly puts piece after piece atop the original stump until it resembles a tower. Syd looks down at her construction and is amazed at what she just created.
Hell-Lay. Night. Syd's paying an evening visit to Amy Aquino. "You want me to hypnotize you?" Amy Aquino asks. "I want you to take me back to whenever it was I first saw that puzzle," Syd responds. Amy Aquino's all, but you say you don't remember ever seeing that puzzle. Syd's all, but I must have! Amy Aquino's all, Agent Bristow, baby, I've seen your profile! Your spatial intelligence is, well, stellar. It's pretty much no surprise that you could solve the puzzle, okay? Syd's all, but I wasn't solving it, okay? When I was standing there...it was like...I remembered where every piece belonged. There weren't no THOUGHT involved. Okay? OKAY? "You said the KGB developed a similar project," says Syd. "It's possible that my mother knew the techniques. And...maybe she..."
Amy Aquino's all, Agent Bristow, if you're lookin' to uncover a trauma, then, baby, I need to warn you: hypnotic regression can trigger severe nightmares, flashbacks, acute depression…Syd breaks in and tells Amy Aquino that, in order to do what she does, maintaining her cover at SD-6, she compartmentalizes a LOT, "but the idea that I might have been programmed to be a spy...I can't tuck that away. I need to know what happened to me." Amy Aquino looks at her kindly.
Sloane's office. Detective Daffy is enjoying an early-morning screening of what appears to be a violent coup of some sort. Some bald lackey enters, bearing a plastic bag. "Excuse me, sir," Bald Lackey says. "I analyzed the wine. Is this a good time?" Sloane puts the popcorn down and rips himself away from the carnage, turning to look at Bald Lackey. Officer Off His Nut indicates that it's a perfect time to chat by moving away from the TV screen and walking over to his desk. Bald Lackey informs him that there were no fingerprints on the glass and the wine was a Hedley '99 Cabernet Franq, an unremarkable vintage.
