Chapter 1
Venice
Syd’s Apartment
Will and Sydney are watching a movie. Syd turns to Will.
Syd: Are you sure about going into Witness Protection Program?
Will: Do I have a choice? The CIA won’t let me live unprotected.
Syd: You know you won’t ever see me again.
Will quiets down and they continue watching the movie. When it ends, Syd gets up and turns on the lights. Will stands up and faces Syd.
Will: Syd, I want to join the agency. I want to become an agent.
Syd: You’d do that for me?
Will: I’d do anything for you.
Syd: But it’s going to be tons of work, and dangerous.
Will: I have you as a role model. I can’t go wrong. And I’d do anything to be near you.
Will leans over to Syd and they kiss. Sydney pulls away.
Syd: Will, I’m sorry, you need to go. I’ll talk to Kendall about you joining the agency.
She leads him into the doorway.
Syd: Good night, Will.
She closes the door practically on his face. She leans against the door, and sighs.

CIA Board Room
Kendall: We have a new member joining our team.
He steps aside leaving a place for Will to enter. Sydney shifts uncomfortably. Will sits down.
Kendall: Recent intell has shown that Sloane and Emily are currently residing in Venice. They are staying in a resort there. We need to get in and take them both into custody. Vaughn, Syd, you’re going to pose as a married couple checking into the resort. And Will, you have to make a distraction.
They all nod.
Kendall: Weiss, Dixon, you’ll get in and extract the Sloanes. Get to work people! Wheels up in an hour.
Resort in Venice
Syd and Vaughn, dressed as a rich, trendy, southern couple, walk up to the check-in desk.
Syd: Hello. We’re the Johnsons.
The clerk looks at his computer and clicks the mouse a few times.
Clerk: Oh, Hello Mr. and Mrs. Johnson. You’re in room 47.
Vaughn: Thank You, sir.
Syd: Yes. It’s nice to finally have some peace and quiet with my husband.
She smiles at the clerk and then at Vaughn and they kiss. Will walks up to them and punches Vaughn in the face.
Will: What are you doing with my girl?!
Syd: I am not your girl. Now, get off me you creep!!
She pushes Will away and bends down to tend to Vaughn’s bleeding nose.
Syd: (to clerk) Can you be a darling and get me a first-aid kit?
Clerk: Oh, sure.
Vaughn: (to Will) What the hell is your problem?!
Will: You took the woman I love away from me!
Syd and Vaughn in synch: What?!
Vaughn: She’s my wife!
Will: Not for long.
He punches Vaughn again. Vaughn punches back and they continue fighting. Three guards come and break up the fight. Syd hears her father’s voice in her radio: We’re done here. Get out of there.
Syd: I’m so sorry about this. Let’s go.
They all walk out.
Plane Above Atlantic Ocean
Jack: We had to tell Sloane that Emily was dead so he would leave, and we left her at the resort with security. We need you three to get in and extract her. This is a slip-in slip-out mission.
Resort in Venice
It’s mid-afternoon. Will is talking to the clerk.
Will: Hello. I’m Julius Braha. Do you have some information about this resort, a brochure, maybe?
Clerk: Oh, yes. In the backroom. Hold on one minute please, sir.
He walks to the backroom and Will gives Syd and Vaughn the signal to head in. They are dressed as maintenance. They head up to the 2nd floor, to room 47 and they go inside. They see Julius Sark holding a gun to Emily’s head.
Sark: Hello, Sydney.
Syd: Let her go.
Sark: Is that the way you talk to an old friend?
Syd: I wouldn’t put us as friends.
Sark: Well, I’m sorry, but I have to leave alone, so…..
He points the gun at Vaughn and shoots him in the shoulder. He pushes Emily aside. He runs to the balcony and jumps off. Syd follows. She catches up to him and kicks him. He stumbles, but fights back. They fight, and Syd trips him. He falls back and Syd points a gun at him. Will comes over and points his gun at Sark.
Syd: Take care of him.
She runs back up to the room and sees Emily on the floor next to Vaughn.
Emily: He needs to get to a hospital.
Syd: (into radio) Dad, we need an ambulance!
Hospital Room
Vaughn wakes up in a hospital bed with Sydney by his side.
Vaughn: Hey.
Syd: How do you feel?
Vaughn: Tired.
Syd: Being shot isn’t the only thing that can do that to you.
She smiles. Jack knocks on the door and waits in the doorway.
Jack: Syd, can we talk outside?
Syd looks at Vaughn and he nods. She walks out.
Outside
Jack: You and Vaughn are probably exhausted. We have room 47 for the rest of the night. Why don’t you stay there for the night. You deserve it.
Syd: Um, ok, ya, um, thanks.
Syd walks back into the room. She sits down next to Vaughn.
Syd: What do you think about a night in a hotel?
Vaughn: Your father offered?
Syd: Ya.
Vaughn: Looks like Big Ol’ Jack is softening up.
Syd: (laughing) Ya. I guess so. ( They both smile and they kiss.)
