Sloane says that, be that as it may, she still hasn't answered his question. Sonia just blah blahs something about how, from the moment Nadia came to her, she was in danger. She changed her name to Santos so nobody could find her. The men who attacked Sonia in Lisbon weren't after Sonia, they were after Nadia. They wanted to know the name Sonia had given Nadia, but she told them nothing. Sloane asks why she didn't tell Nadia all of this. Sonia says that she didn't want to interrupt the happiness that Nadia has found with her newfound familyzzzzzzzzz -- what? What's that? Huh? Sloane says that Sonia doesn't have to worry, he can take care of Nadia now. "How can you be sure?" asks Sonia. "Because I know who's after my child," he says. Yeah, Sloane. AND SHE'S LYING IN THE BED RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU. Gah.
Marshall's Garage of Geekiness. Syd enters and asks what Marshall wanted to see her about. He's all, oh, I just wanted to show you this stuff about Hydrosec so that it would give you a reason to come into my office and see the file on my desk about Sonia. But, right now, take a look at the damage just one billionth of a gram of Hydrosec can do. "One gram of Hydrosec," says Marshall, "turns Lake Michigan into sludge." Shout-out? I'd like to think so. Syd figures that, in order to manufacture the Hydrosec, you'd need a Level 4 biohazard containment and a massive cooling system, which should narrow down the possible locations. Just give Marshall a couple of hours to come up with some. That's when Syd finally sees Sonia's file. She picks it up and walks out with it before Marshall can even protest.
Syd races right into Sloane's office and says, "What the hell were you thinking?" "I'm sure you mean that in the most polite way," he snits. Hee. Syd bitches at Sloane for using CIA resources to check up on Sonia. Sloane just says he was being cautious. Syd blah blahs something about how Nadia trusts him now and every time he lies to her, he breaks that bond. Syd's only concern is for her sister. Sloane looks mildly pained.
Back in Amsterdam -- Jesus, are we still in Amsterdam? -- Dix enters as Linus, and I'm amazed that Dixon had the foresight to pack his Pimptastic2000 Supersuit. Or maybe he just dropped by the Pimps-R-Us Surplus Outlet on Rivvsraadicstraat. Either way, he's wearing the ugliest polyester threads seen outside of Michael Jackson's summer closet. Dix and Stubbly Lambert exchange code phrases, and Dirty Broderick sweeps Dix for wires and weapons. He's clean, of course, and Stubbly Lambert invites him to sit. Dix would love to sit, but first he has to have his Shaft-o-Riffic Pimp Daddy Ho Leathah hat surgically removed from his head. Good god. Do they MAKE leather hats in brick red?
