"Delicate" by Damien Rice (edit) This episode begins in medias res. (edit)

Dixon: I have just been informed by the Joint Chiefs of Staff that we've been ordered to stand down. Given our tenuous relations with North Korea, their official position on Sydney and Vaughn is to disavow. Unofficially, I say, Screw 'em. (edit) Sydney: I've done everything I can to try to make this ridiculous situation work. You, me and Lauren working in the same office...
Vaughn: Yeah, and I have tried to walk around with this fake smile on my face, pretending everything was fine, just the way it used to be. That's not working for me anymore.
Sydney: This is it. When we get back, one of us has to go. (edit) Vaughn: We're not gonna make it out of here. There's something I need you to know.
Sydney: Vaughn...
Vaughn: In my life, there's only one person...
Sydney: Don't do this.
Vaughn: Look at me.
Sydney: Vaughn...
Vaughn: The only reason I pushed you away...
Sydney: Please...
Vaughn: The only reason I didn't know how to be around you...
(hear marching)
Sydney: They're coming.
Vaughn: Sydney...
Sydney: I know, Vaughn. I know. We'll find each other. We always find each other. (edit) Sydney: (to Vaughn) Have I offended you in some way, like showing up and disrupting the perfect little life you had? (edit) Vaughn: (to Sydney) Bad enough being a fugitive in North Korea. Now I have to find out that you slept with Will? (edit)

When Jack is talking to Irina via instant messenger, he types his message, presses send, and the message displays. However, when Irina types her message, it comes up a word at a time. The messenger they are using must use one method or the other, not both. (edit) Goof:
When the plane starts to dive, because the pilots are dead, Sydney and Vaughn start to move up an incline. This means they are moving to the tail of the plane, not the cockpit. (edit) Number 47: Sydney and Vaughn's plane's registration number is N9748C. (edit) There are three Derevko sisters: Irina, Katya and Elena. (edit) When Vaughn sprays the area around the crashed plane with gasoline and then throws a flare to light the gasoline, you can see through the smoke of the flare that he threw it over the plane. After the flare lands, you can very clearly see the pyrotechnics igniting the gasoline in the foreground. Therefore the flare itself may have not lit the gasoline but rather there could have been sparks from the flare which ignited the area in the foreground. (edit)
