    Storyline

    • Trivia
      The plot device of a modified stealth aircraft with the ability to "dock" with a commercial airliner was not new in 2005. The 1996 film Executive Decision used this method as a major plot point with a nearly identical scene of the docking - however in this episode the docking occurs in the rear section of the aircraft while in the movie it happened at the front. The use of a near-identical scene, even 9 years apart, was quite unusual as Disney (Alias) and Warner Brothers (Executive Decision) have been rivals since the 1940s.
    • Quotes

      Sydney Bristow: Four months ago, you murdered a man, Michael Vaughn, do you remember?

      [Curtis looks at her blankly]

      Sydney Bristow: I do, I was there. It'll be burned into my memory for the rest of my life as the day that my child lost its father. So you can imagine what I'd like to do to you. Lucky for you, there's someone I want even more. Tell me where I can find Gordon Dean.

      Ivan Curtis: Is this whole routine supposed to scare me? I do this for a living.

      Sydney Bristow: It's a funny thing about pregnancy... Hormones... Whew... I woke up today feeling pretty hormonal. I'm going to give you another chance. Where is Gordon Dean?

      [He shakes his head no, she punches him in the face]
