Arc Advancement

Happenings

• The members of Prophet Five are gathered and killed.

• With Marshall and Rachel's coerced help, Sloane locates an underground cavern at Mt Subasio. With Vaughn's help, Sydney finds Sloane there with the Rambaldi amulet, but she only sees him hold up against the light, claiming she isn't allowed to see it before he shoots the icy ground underneath her feet and she falls through.

• The APO office is destroyed by a bomb planted, but everyone seems to have been evacuated in time.

Characters

• Amanda learns that Marshall is still working for the CIA.

• Grace goes to Rachel where he opens up about the guilt he feels about his and they share a kiss. He later stays and tries to slow the timer on the bomb, but once everyone is successfully evacuated, he stays behind. He talks with Rachel over the phone where he wishes he would have asked her out and she confesses that she would say yes. The bomb then goes off, killing him.

Memorable Moments
