A day later at the JTF, Marshall explains
that the Restoration
decrypted says to
find The Passenger using something called The
Hourglass, which
just happens to be
residing in a private collection in LA, owned
by a Yakuza. But the only person who
can use it is The Passenger's dad, i.e. soon-to-be-executed Arvin
Sloane
|
|
|
|
Once more Syd and Jack talk about Sloane, and the need to stop his execution
if they hope to find the Passenger
|
|
|
|
|
Syd says sis may be an innocent, and I could help her, and do you really
want to do this just to get back at Sloane for a 25-year-old affair?
And anyway, I requisitioned the Reed papers too and
read all
about the Trust, so we have proof it does exist, so what ya gonna do, Dad? |
|
Jack points out that a child of Irina Derevko and Arvin Sloane could
never be innocent. And Gosh darn it, OK, I'll tell the DOJ guy about
The Trust when he comes to see the
execution, and when did you get those papers? |
|
|
|
Didn't ... fooled you, Dad
|
|
|
|
Oooo, fooled Dad |
|
|
|
And so it is that later, fooled-dad Jack reviews a folder, when he's
interrupted by |
|
|
|
Dixon introducing him to the DOJ guy who says yea for catching Sloane,
it was my sig on the pardon agreement, and now looking forward
to seeing the S.O.B. die
|
|
Moments later, as he watches them walk away, we see the bells going off
in Jack's head and see him putting the file back in the drawer |
|
|
|
We then see Jack going visiting Sloane, with a bottle of wine
and two glasses |
|
|
|
Now Sloane realizes Jack isn't going to help him |
|
|
|
Jack says in April of '75, you toasted Sydney's birth with a bottle of
Chambertin.
I'm just returning the honor, seeing as how the gals have the same
mom
|
|
|
|
Sloane says, hey, Irina betrayed us both. She sought me out for info
too, she was a KGB spy who didn't care about either of us, and
your schoolboy crush is now preventing you from saving my life
|
|
Jack says he now realizes
Sloane recruited Syd because he wanted
to take something important
away from Jack and Irina, the symbol of what Sloane didn't have,
namely Sydney
|
|
|
|
And so Jack ends their final conversation with a promise, that what
Sloane has
done to
Sydney is nothing compared to what Jack will do when he
finds Sloane's
daughter
