[A shot of an Egg in the Basket over a frying pan zooms out to Gordon's hands holding the pan, reminiscent of V preparing the same dish. Evey wakes up to Stan Getz, Tom Jobim, João Gilberto, and Astrud Gilberto's "Corcovado". She had previously sought refuge at Gordon Deitrich's home after escaping from V]

Gordon:
Bonjour, mademoiselle.

Evey:
[puzzled] What is that you're making?

Gordon:
We call it "Eggie in the Basket". My mum used to make them.

Evey:
This is weird.

Gordon:
What?

Evey:
The first morning I was with him, he made me eggs just like this.

Gordon:
Really?

Evey:
I swear!

Gordon:
That is a strange coincidence. Although there's an obvious explanation.

Evey:
There is?

Gordon:
Yes, Evey. I am V. At last, you know the truth. [Evey looks incredulously at Gordon] You're stunned, I know. It's hard to believe, isn't it? That beneath this wrinkled, well-fed exterior, there lies a dangerous killing machine with a fetish for Fawkesian masks. ¡Viva la revolución!

Evey:
That is not funny, Gordon.

Gordon:
[sighs] Yes, I know. I'm useless without a studio audience.

Evey:
I've seen people go to jail for less than that.

Gordon:
Of course. He was right, wasn't it? There is something wrong with this country.
