Later, Spy Daddy's yelling at Devlin that they have to come to Sydney's aid. Devlin won't authorize the Vatican trip. Back and forth and back and forth, if Sydney weren't Spy Daddy's kid, he probably wouldn't be fighting for this, but she is, so he is. He needs Devlin's help. Devlin just stares at him as The Drums Of Doom and Violins Of Vengeance start playing.
Sloane's in bed with Emily's arm slung over his side. He's not sleeping, though. The damn Drums Of Doom and Violins Of Vengeance are playing too loudly to allow for a restful night. Sloane gets up and places a call to Double-Oh-Geritol. Sloane tells him that he's going to take care of Jean himself.
Warehouse Of Doomed Love Affairs. Syd's just informed Agent Amorous that she needs to break into the Vatican. "The last thing I'm gonna do while DSR is waiting on test results to prove I'm guilty of something I don't even understand is sit on my ass!" states Sydney. "But the Vatican!" sputters Agent Apathy. Syd says that they have to get into the hidden Vatican archives. All she has is an inventory number. She called Vaughn because she needs a partner, and he's the only one she can trust. It's really just an excuse to get Vaughn and Sydney out of The Subbasement Of Dreams And Desires but, you know, whatever.
Captain Non-Courageous is all, I'm flattered that you trust me but, like, I could lose my job over this. "You in?" says Sydney. Three hundred more forehead wrinkles break out on Vaughn's forehead as he smiles ruefully and says, "Yeah. I'll break into the Vatican with you." Hee. Vaughn and Sydney, sittin' in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G. First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes double-agent-spy-baby in a baby carriage!
Apartment Of Thwarted Love And Dead Fiancés. Francie's all twittery about going to see Kobe Bryant. Syd's all twittery about how to pack for a trip that involves breaking into the holy seat of Catholicism. Once again, Willage is just hanging around. He asks Syd about her stupid prophecy dream. She just sort of brushes it off and then announces that she's off to Boston.
Rome. No, I have nothing funny to say about it. It's just Rome, okay? Action Agent Vaughn and Sydney pull up to some house dressed in blue worker jumpsuits. We see the Vatican in the distance. The Dastardly Duo enters the house with a bunch of tool bags and the matron of the house asks, in Italian, just what in the hell they're doing there. Syd and Vaughn both answer in Italian. No, we don't know what they say, but Michael Vartan sounds so bloody HOT when he speaks in a foreign language that he could be reading my Ameritech phone bill and I'd swoon.
