5. Out of the Box

Complete story — includes the ending

Renée raids US Army storage, Frankfurt, for Atropine ZX. Exonerated, Sloane tries returning, trading his connections for APO resources to research Nadia's cure. In Marseille, Renée, believing the man's her father Luc Goursaud, resuscitates him. Out of the box, he claims Desantis encased him 23 years ago in 1983. Sydney, "Prophet Five?" Man, "What do you know about them?" He collapses. Jack advises Grace to contact Dr. Etienne Laurent, but mercenaries attack. In San Francisco, Dixon and Rachel tomographically image Desantis' records using Marshall's "little 6-legged freak...Charlotte." Renée explains, Desantis paid Luc for "clinical trials," later abducting him. Renee vows "to make them pay." Grace blows up the mercenaries' knockout-gas van. Dean provides Sloane photos of Senator Diane Lewis' daughter, extorting APO access. Marshall and Rachel study recovered electroencephalograms, proving the man isn't Luc. Sydney likewise deduces he's not Renée's father, but Renée needs convincing. In an armed stand-off, Renée's tests him to remember where she hid as a child when Luc was abducted; the man can't answer. Mercenaries extract him by helicopter. In Kaesong, North Korea, he's met by Dean and identified as Dr. Aldo Desantis. Sloane returns to APO, "keeping an eye on" them for Dean.
