Michael Vaughn:
What's going on?

Sydney Bristow:
It was Lauren who told me.

Michael Vaughn:
What?

Sydney Bristow:
Told me where to look. Safety deposit box in Wittenberg. [Vaughn moves to the bed to sit next to Sydney] How she knew, I don't know. I wasn't even going to go, I had no reason to believe anything that woman said. But the curiosity was just too strong. [She pauses] I got there. Inside the box, there was a file. Classified; highest level. My heart was pounding, like I knew somehow before I knew.

Michael Vaughn:
What was it?

Sydney Bristow:
Evidence. Evidence that my mother had been a security risk; which wasn't really news. It mentioned her history with the KGB... Everything we knew. Then there was a page, an official request made by my father asking for the authority to execute Irina Derevko. A request that was granted; and he did it. [Sydney stops attempting not to cry] He killed her. [Vaughn takes Sydney's shoulder and brings her into his lap] He killed my mother... He did it Vaughn... He killed her... He killed my mother...
