Ron Rifkin: Arvin Sloane

Quotes 

  • Marshall Flinkman : OK, they're doing it, they're in the room. Yo, Mr. Sloane, I know how against this you were... If Sydney chooses to say I told you so.

    Arvin Sloane : She's not out yet.

    Marshall Flinkman : That's true. But their good, they're really good.

  • Arvin Sloane : Sydney, we didn't expect you back so soon... So Russia was a success?

    Sydney Bristow : Yeah, there's a report waiting for you in the office.

    Nadia Santos : Sydney, he just dropped by, I didn't realize.

    Sydney Bristow : Get Out.

    Arvin Sloane : Very Well... I'll walk myself to the door. I'll see you both tomorrow.

    Nadia Santos : OK... He came by wanting to talk; he says he wants a fresh start to get to know me.

    Sydney Bristow : You think that's all he wants; a little father daughter bonding?

    Nadia Santos : I know how you feel about him.

    Sydney Bristow : You can't possibly.

    Nadia Santos : I don't understand, you work with him at APO.

    Sydney Bristow : I accepted the job so I can watch him. Don't delude yourself, Nadia, into thinking you can trust that man. Do that and you will end up hating yourself for it.

    Nadia Santos : He's my father.

    Sydney Bristow : If you knew what he's done...

    Nadia Santos : Sydney, I know, I know what he did to you. What he took from you, your best friend, your fiance...

    Sydney Bristow : And knowing that, you still let him into my home?

  • Arvin Sloane : My sources confirm that their panicking

    Sydney Bristow : Your sources...

    Arvin Sloane : If that vial is their only prototype as Intel appears to collaborate. Its theft has set their classified weapons program back decades.

    Sydney Bristow : Would you mind telling us where that Intel came from? Or are we all supposed to rely on your sources no questions asked?

  • Arvin Sloane : Just so we don't have these misunderstandings again, let me be clear to both of you. Questioning my authority, whether it's in this office or in the field; is unacceptable.

    Sydney Bristow : Unacceptable... Coming from you that's almost funny

    Nadia Santos : Sydney, please.

    Sydney Bristow : Do you really want to engage in a conversation about what is and what is not acceptable? Every day I work here, I see your face in briefings; I hear your voice in my ear during missions. And do you want to know what it's like? It makes me sick to my stomach. Having to pretend that the past never happened, that you're not the same murderous, criminal, sociopath you were three years ago. It makes me want to wretch. If you want to talk unacceptable, that is unacceptable.

    Arvin Sloane : I assumed that you had accepted the fact that I made amends for my past.

    Sydney Bristow : Amends; Francie and Danny are gone and yet here you are. And everywhere I look I'm reminded of the man that killed them.

  • Arvin Sloane : We have no Intel on that woman. You'll be going in blind Sydney.

    Sydney Bristow : We know enough. She has gossip rags all over the room, which means she's fine making a mess, so we know she's not a one-night stand. Her shoes cost more than most people's monthly salary, so she either has money of her own or access to Tambor's.

    [Vaughn stares at Sydney, then looks up at Weiss bewildered] 

    Sydney Bristow : Either way, empty champagne bottles, her side of the bed. This girl likes to party. But her boyfriend would rather stay in and watch TV their last night in Monaco than hang out with her, so she's bored. Most likely pissed off.

    Jack Bristow : How do you propose to find her?

    Sydney Bristow : Well, she let her handbag. She didn't go far. In fact, I'm guessing she's hitting the hotel bar right now.

    [Vaughn grins at Sydney] 

    Sydney Bristow : All Nadia and I need to do is get to her and get her to take us to the room. Why are you smiling?

    Michael Vaughn : I don't know.

  • Arvin Sloane : So Sydney, I contacted Chase. She's expecting a call from you regarding a transfer from this unit. Given your sentiments, I assume that's what you want.

    [Sydney leans in closer to Sloane] 

    Sydney Bristow : I want to make something clear. I will never forgive you for what you've done to me, to the people I love. No amount of time or distance will ever change that.

    [She Pauses and stands up] 

    Sydney Bristow : I'll see you tomorrow.

    [Last lines]
