Happenings

• The rotunda is destroyed.

• Sloane finds Nadia at her safe house for the coordinates to the Sphere of Life, the vessel in which Rambaldi's consciousness is stored. She sneaks out to take him there, explaining that she altered the coordinates, leading the Covenant to the wrong location.

• Katya is found to working with the Covenant. Sydney shoots her with a tranquilliser dart.

• Vaughn finally gets closure and revenge on Lauren when he finds her fighting Sydney and shoots and kills her.

• During their fight, Lauren hints to Sydney about "the truth", asking questions about the CIA not finding her when she went missing, the chances that she learned, or if her mother's really been helping. She even hints about it not being a coincidence that she and Nadia both happened to be agents. She tells her of a bank vault and its location. Sydney later follows up and finds documents relating to something called Project 47. As she tears up over what she's reading, Jack comes in and tells her that she was never supposed to find out.

Characters

• Sark is once again taken into CIA custody.

Trivia

Behind the Scenes

• ABC's official website had originally posted a summary of this episode:

In Wittenberg, Syd opens the safe deposit box and finds a top secret document. She cries as she learns that Jack wasn't in prison after Irina betrayed him, that Vaughn's father William worked for him, and that he has documented her entire life, as well as Nadia's. Jack appears and says she was never supposed to have found these documents.

It was later edited to read:

In Wittenberg, Syd opens the safe deposit box and finds top secret documents. She cries as she peruses files documenting her life, each one bearing Jack Bristow's signature. Jack enters and says she was never supposed to have found these documents.
