Back at the CIA office, Agent Weasel is spilling the beans about his encounter with Jack over the phone, presumably to somebody at the FBI. The person on the other end tells him about Sydney's escape. Back in the Spymobile, Sydney is changing clothes in the trunk. Somehow she and Agent Amorous are talking to each other with the help of speakers or something. Sydney asks Vaughn if he ever considered that Rambaldi could be right about Sydney. Agent Amorous says he never did, because he believes in her. He makes a lame joke about not putting just anybody in his trunk. He must have put at least a few other people in his trunk if he felt the need to install speakers. Back at the office, Weasel continues to rat his co-workers out by giving out details about which vehicles have been signed out. Some people have suggested that it was stupid of them to use CIA vehicles, but I think the whole point of those cars is that nobody outside the agency knows the details about them. Weasel's totally betraying the agency here, and I don't think even his co-workers expected that. Of course, they're idiots for not thinking that the FBI would suspect them first anyway. But it sounds like the FBI are also idiots and indeed did not suspect them first. Who did they think it was?
Agent Amorous drives the car up to some other warehouse, where another car is waiting. Sydney gets out of the trunk to show us that she's wearing that awful wig from the beginning of the show, and a hideous blue sweatsuit that Grandma might wear when she goes mall-walking. She's going to Italy, not Yuma. Vaughn tells her to take the car to where a jet is waiting to take her to Italy. He tells her to be careful. She tells him to be careful, too. They share a Meaningful Look; then she runs to the car and takes off.
She drives for a while until a police car comes zooming by in the other direction. Sydney tries to keep a low profile, but the minute the car passes her, it makes a tire-screeching U-turn to chase after her. And so we return to the chase scene at the beginning, and now the show has resorted to recapping this very episode. Chasing. Chasing. But now we get a cut to Willage Idiot and Francie watching the chase on television and munching on popcorn. Neither of them seems at all concerned that Sydney went off to make a phone call the night before and has been gone ever since. What good friends. I can see why Sydney wouldn't want them to get killed or anything.
