...and into the end-of-episode splitscreen. In other windows, Ahmed hangs at his neighbors', Wayne hangs in the Oval Office with Karen, and helicopters hang in the air over their base.
Back at the house of Fayed, the man himself is still toying with Kiefer, and with a pair of pliers. "Do you remember doing this to my brother?" he asks Kiefer, positioning the pincers around Kiefer's left index finger. But then the tech guy comes in to say that Fayed has a call, so Fayed decides to put off the moment until he can enjoy it properly. He gives the one henchman in the room some instructions in Arabic, and then leaves to take the call at 6:58:46. The call is, wouldn't you know it, from Ahmed. D'oh! He's all stressed out about his father being nabbed by the FBI, and tells Fayed that his father's innocent. Fayed tells Ahmed, "If your father is meant to be sacrificed, then that is how it will be. Now tell me what the FBI said."
While the guard isn't looking, Kiefer somehow contrives to rip off the EKG cuff. Hearing the flatline tone, the guard goes to check on him. Last mistake he ever makes, because Kiefer rears back and SINKS HIS TEETH INTO THE GUY'S NECK. I don't know how he keeps him from screaming, unless he's somehow also using his own cheek to block the victim's mouth, but that's fucking gross, dude. I'm having Lost Boys flashbacks. After getting his fill of carotid or jugular or whatever, Kiefer spits out a gobbet of throat-flesh and gets the keys off the body before shrugging it to the floor. A moment later, he's free.
Down the hall, an unsuspecting Fayed is telling Ahmed that he did good, and asks, "Are you sure the FBI didn't find the package?" Ahmed is sure. Fayed tells him to "deliver it soon," and Ahmed promises to call Fayed back. When he hangs up, Scott is standing right there. Ahmed swallows his "busted" face and claims that he was just talking to his uncle. Scott invites Ahmed to join the fam for breakfast. And, hey, if a little Geometry tutoring session should spontaneously break out, that's cool too.
Fayed returns to his pet project, only to find no Kiefer and a dead guard. The room's back entrance appears to be unlocked, so Fayed sends his guards in that direction. Which, of course, means that Kiefer is hiding under the drain grate in the floor. He wipes the last of the blood off his chin with his sleeve and heads down the tunnel. Nice of him to wait around and risk being caught, just so we could see where he really is.
