Archer enters Isis in a blissful mood, drones dancing in the back ground. While he is in his blissful mood he gives a few roses to several co-workers then continues his walk around the office as his co-workers continue their dancing in the background. Archer walks into his mother's office to give her a rose just as Malory grabs a rose an explosion happens. A quick scene change to the outside of the building to show the result of the explosion blew out all the windows of the top three floors of the building. The mood has a quick sharp one eighty and it shows Archer was blown on the ground trying to check his hearing after the explosion. In bursts a group of 10 people all wearing black Kevlar and riot helmets with fully automatic assault rifles firing at Archer and the other members of Isis. One by one the members of Isis get shot then just before Archer gets hit he wakes up in the middle of an alley between two buildings in New York. He sits there and wonders if it was all a dream. In a confused, what seemed drunken blur he starts to stumble around New York trying to find someone who he recognizes. After he has been stumbling around for hours he gives up and decides he should go home wait for tomorrow and go to work. Archer starts to stumble in the direction of his home and when he arrives at where he usually goes to he realizes it's not an apartment complex, it's a diner and again he starts to think what is going on, nothing is making sense. He decides to go to Isis and crash there for the night to try and figure everything out. Upon arriving at the building which Isis is based in he sees the dry cleaning and Laundromat that is used a cover. Upon entering he freezes, the building was right and he double checked the address to make sure of it and looking around it wasn't the same as he remembered. At that moment started to panic, he ran outside and down the street panicking and wondering what is going on and nothing seems to be as it should be in his mind. He arrives at the alley he woke up in and decides to stop there and think, just then a guy wearing baggy pants and a hoodie walks up to him and says to Archer "Hey man, you alright?"
"Yah, just trying to figure out what's going on" Archer replied.
"So, the crack you had was pretty good then, huh?" the guy asks.
"What?" Archer asked curiously.
"Crack, you know, cocaine, you came to me a couple days ago asking to get some" he explained
Just then everything became clear, he was addicted to crack and everything he thought was real was all a part of his crack filled dreams. All of his dangerous adventures as a spy, all the people he met during his job, none of it really happened. Archer sat there in just accepted that it was all a dream.
