Irina stands up as Syd informs the team that she has Derevko. Um, no you don't. Derevko's on the edge. You shoot her, she drops. You don't shoot her, she drops. Or don't you think she has some serious bungee cords wrapped around her waist? Syd's all, get off the ledge! Irina's all, yeah, because that's threatening. Shut up. I'll tell you what you need to know. Satan Sloane thinks he's been chosen to realize the word of Rambaldi. Oh, and that he's supposed to open up a Jamba Juice on the corner of Lincoln and Wilson. Mmmm. Jamba Juice...
"But you too have been chosen," gasps Irina. Syd's all, I'm not bluffing! I'll shoot you! Irina's like, yeah. Uh-huh. Dude. I'm on the EDGE of a building. Even if I WEREN'T prepared with bungee cords, you'd be pretty damn stupid to shoot someone who appears to be suicidal. Dummy. "It's you in the prophecy, Sydney," she says. "Not me. Only you can stop him." She smiles really sweetly at her daughter. "Good luck, sweetheart." "Get down. Now," says Syd, trying to sound tough, but letting a new set of weepy tears sort of undercut her macho-ness. "I love you," says her mother, falling backwards off the roof...
Irina freefalls down the side of the building, her concealed bungee cord now visible, and she starts shooting the shit out of the windows, with a blatant disregard for any human beings who might be inside. Syd comes to the edge of the roof, looks down, and goes, "She jumped!" Heh. Irina's bungee cord retracts, pulling her back up, and she pulls some sort of crossbow out and shoots some steel arrow into the interior wall of one of the offices. Irina grabs onto the attached cord and slams into the exterior glass. Seriously. It's, like, the best scene ever. It's also relatively similar to that scene in The Matrix where Neo saves Trinity by grabbing onto that strappy thing and she slams into the office building glass. I think J.J. has spent even more time than I have watching The Matrix on DVD.
Wendy Kroy: Dude. You're obsessed with The Matrix.
Regina: I know.
Wendy Kroy: You need help.
Regina: I know.
Syd, watching her mother escape in a truly awesome fashion, gets on the horn and orders any available agents to street level. Agent Sean, who's currently helping Dix get Jack back in working order, responds that he'll head down to street level. As he's making his way, Syd watches Irina climb into a window below. She's hilariously frantic at this point; she gets on the headset and goes, "She just climbed into a floor in the middle of the building!" When Agent Sean wants to know which one, Syd literally loses her shit and shrieks, "I HAVE NO IDEA! Eighteenth! Nineteenth! Four hundredth and twenty-second! I CAN'T TELL FROM HERE!" Hee.
