Lookout Point of Duplicitous Daddies. Sloane's waiting on someone. Peyton arrives in a killer red car. "Sydney Bristow was not to be harmed," says Sloane. "How exactly was Bristow harmed?" snots Peyton. Sloane's all, uh, you locked her in a train car and sprayed her with a chemical agent. What part about that screams "DO NO HARM"? Peyton just snits that she's sure Syd's been given a thorough examination, and that nothing's been found wrong with her. Sloane needs to know what they did to Sydney. No he doesn't. All he needs to know that he's fulfilled his contract with Prophet Five and Peyton has the antidote for Nadia. Peyton leaves and Sloane looks like he's wrestled with the Devil and lost.
Moscow. We pan past a couple of large metal containers; they resemble the container that Syd's DNA spilled into beneath the train. Sure enough, there's tons of red liquid pouring out of it into a big Plexiglas box. Dr. Funboy walks into the room, explaining to Angus that he's loaded the Bristow DNA template into the sequencer and the genetic fluid is primed and ready. Then we see that Anna is lying in a large metal cage that's positioned above the red fluid. "How's our subject?" asks Angus. "Ready to get this over with," says Anna. Dr. Funboy says that her vitals are good and that the Provacillium should be taking effect. Dr. Funboy tells Anna that he's given her something for the pain, but if the previous genetic manipulations were any indicator, the narcotics won't be much help. Anna's all, I've been through worse. Dr. Funboy's all, oh ho ho! That's what you think! Wait'll you feel this! For the first time, Anna looks slightly scared and nervous. The cage is slowly dropped down into the red liquid and Anna immediately begins to scream and shake. Angus and Dr. Funboy watch.
Park of Long Goodbyes. Will and Syd are walking Isabelle through the park. Syd says she's given Will a panic button that he can use any ol' time. Will tells her not to worry about him, and she says she can't help it and that she's sorry he got dragged into all this. He tells her that if she apologizes one more time, he's going to smack the crap out of her. Heh. Will says it isn't her fault and Syd throws another pity party for herself and says how the people she loves get hurt or kidnapped or killed, just because they know her. She starts to cry and a bit, and Will tells Syd that it's not her fault that evil is in the world, and that he for one sleeps better at night knowing that she's out there and they hug and it's all okay because Will is awesome. He says that there's no one like her on earth and she kind of blushes at this and he says, "Hey, there is only one Sydney Bristow." But, see, there totally IS more than one Sydney Bristow and she's coming up out of the red muck right now and she looks really, really, REALLY pissed off.
