Episode Report Card Erin: B- | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Who's a Bad Mama Jamma?

This book had been in Taipei, but when the Red Ball busted, the operative grabbed the book and bolted. He's supposed to hand over the book tomorrow afternoon on Pier 47 at the Port of Barcelona. And know what else? SD-6 doesn't even KNOW about this whole handoff. Know why? 'Cuz of that handy-dandy delay transmitter that Syd placed on that bug way back in Cap Ferrat. And you didn't think that delay transmitter would be of any use! Silly you!
So, it's off to the Port of Barcelona. I hope they can book time to visit the Temple of the Holy Family. That Gaudi shit ROCKS! I don't know if they'll be able to schedule it, though; Vaughn, Agent Sean and Syd all seem too intent on looking cool in their all-black spy outfits. There's a huge team of CIA operatives to back them up, also dressed in black, also not disappearing into the woodwork like you think they should.
To keep up with this theme of unprofessionalism, Vaughn pipes up, "So, hey, there are a lot of good restaurants here in Barcelona." Syd's all, yeah, I know. Do you see anything or what? Vaughn's all, no, not yet, but I was just thinking that, you know, since we can totally be seen in public here, we should grab a bite to eat somewhere. "We could get The Bible, get a bite," he says. "Can the whole team come?" snips Agent Sean. "'Cuz we're starving." Hee. Look how much fun they're having on their little stakeout! It's just dates and double entendres over here at the Least Professional CIA Stakeout Known to Man!
Khasinau finally arrives, bringing an end to the hoots and hijinks. The operative shows up seconds later in a Humvee. Some CIA guy tells everyone to hold position and get ready to move. All members with guns snap their safeties and get ready to rock. And so does Spy Mommy, complete with a really wicked female voice sort of wailing over the soundtrack. Lena Olin? Hotter than lava, people.
Spy Mommy's up on a rooftop somewhere that's obviously invisible to all members of the CIA. She's taking aim. On whom she's taking aim, we don't know. The operative gets out of the Humvee and moves over to Khasinau. Dr. Giggles rolls down his window. God DAMN he is fugly. The operative starts to hand over the case as the Head CIA Dude orders everyone into position. He gives the order to move in, surprising Spy Mommy, who clearly thought she was alone in this ambush.
The CIA ops move in to grab Khasinau, but before they nab their quarry, shots are fired from above. Everyone runs for cover. Khasinau breaks for it with the case. Sydney follows. Vaughn yells at Agent Sean that he's gonna go for the shooter and to provide cover. Agent Sean doesn't respond, his legs splayed before him on the pavement. Vaughn moves over and sees that Agent Sean's been hit in the neck. He's gasping for air and his lip is quivering. This is not good. And, considering that Greg Gunberg is rumored to have his own TV show coming into play soon, this is probably not good for the Agent Sean character either.
