Sloane: I take it you have no problem bringing Nadia up to speed?
Weiss: Actually, I already did last night.
Sloane: Excuse me?
Weiss: Ahh...Mmm... We were working, we work late, we actually like it... There were other peop- Jack was here.
(Sloane gives Weiss a complicit look) (edit) Director Chase: So what you're saying is that you've been illegally been tapping you superior's phone.
Dixon: Keep an eye on Sloane was a mandate, one that you specifically charged me with.
Director Chase: I didn't condone breaking federal laws to do it. (edit) (Sloane tasks Sydney to retrieve an artifact)
Sydney: Wait you want us to steal the decoder from the French Police?
Sloane: Right now it's been housed in the Paris prefecture, Sydney figure out a way to get yourself arrested. (edit) (Sydney tries to convince Nadia to celebrate her birthday)
Marshall: Hey guys, are you planing a party?
Nadia: There is no party.
Marshall: Because I'm a really good DJ, if you need it... Anyway speaking of parties... Sloane's having one... In the briefing room right now. (edit) Sloane: Among the items retrieved was the Blackwell Index.
Weiss: Blackwell? What is this, worst dressed list? (edit)

Goof: Chase tells Dixon that Sloane is authorized to contact his former associates. In the previous two episodes he had to step down as APO Director because the situation involved former associates. (edit) Number 47: When Dixon runs a backtrace on one of Sloane's calls it shows the address "Avdage Stepe 47". (edit) Number 47: Sloane's vehicle ID shown in the satellite tracker is 30947 28436. (edit) The dinner scene in Sloane's house is very similar to the one in season one's "Page 47." (edit) Wouldn't director Chase be a bit too high in the CIA's hierarchy to risk being killed or even captured in a regular raid? (edit)

The Matrix

When Sydney jumps onto the helicopter from the roof of the police station, the camera angles are exactly the same as in the movie "The Matrix" when Morheus jumps into Neo's chopper. (edit)
