Because, after Frallison falls, Syd passes out. She doesn't appear to be dead; she just looks spent. Then, we fade into Syd lying somewhere, asleep, a red light flashing above her, making buzzing noises. Chinese voices can be heard as we pull back and reveal that Syd's lying curled up in some dirty alleyway somewhere. She slowly gets up. Her hair is a dirty, tangled mess and she's wearing a truly nappy sweater.
She tries to get up and falls back down. None of her bruises and cuts from the Frallison fight seem to be in attendance, but she looks weak and exhausted. Finally, she makes it up and starts walking out of the alley, her eyes blinking rapidly and her face etched with pain. She stops and looks around. It would seem that, according to her surroundings, she's in Hong Kong. Say it with me: WHUH?
Syd makes it to a payphone, and some woman answers, "Dispatch?" Syd responds, "This is Officer 2300844, calling for connection. Confirmation: looking glass." Talk about your anvils. Alice in Wonderland, anyone? The dispatch operator puts Syd through to Kendall. "I just woke up in Hong Kong," she says when he answers. "I don't know how long I've been here or how I got here." Kendall says nothing for a moment. Syd's all, hellooooo? He finally tells her to get to the safehouse and that he'll tell them to expect her.
At the safe house, a man leads Syd down a hallway. A sobbing woman can be heard in the background. No, I don't know what it means. Syd tries to get some info out of her guide, but he tells her she has to wait for information and that her contact will arrive soon. Once in her room, Syd examines a medium-sized scar on her lower right abdomen. No, I don't know what that means, either. But Jennifer Garner has pretty hands.
The door opens. It's Vaughn. Syd throws herself into his arms, crying. She tells him that they doubled Francie and he's all, yeah, I know. Then she wants to know about Will and Francie and if they're dead. Vaughn tells her that Will's okay. He doesn't say anything about Francie. It should be noted that he totally can't look at her right now, even though she's trying to be affectionate with him. She can't believe that Will's alive and wants to know how. All Vaughn says is, "You...sit down." For the record, I don't think he was saying "You" as in "Will's alive because of you." I think he was starting to tell her everything, and then he decided to have her sit because, dude. This shit's fucked UP.
They sit. Vaughn just looks at her. She just looks at him. Vaughn looks totally tired and wrecked. So does Syd. Finally, Syd's all, dude? Could you tell me what the hell is going on? Vaughn finally goes, "We thought you were dead." He pauses and then quietly says, "They asked me to come back to...um...to explain..." Syd's all, come back from what? Where? Who? What're you on about? Frustrated, Vaughn rubs at his forehead wrinkles with his left hand and reveals...dun dun DUN! A wedding ring!
