"You say you have a plan?" Jack asked unbelievably. Vaughn was still recovering and might not be thinking straight afterall...
"I think I do...but we can't discuss it here..." Vaughn suspiciously eyed the room's borders.
"Fine,..tomorrow I can meet you at the warehouse at noon." Jack knew, of course, knew that this situation could not be discussed within the CIA's quarters where there could be cameras or listening devices.
Vaughn nodded his head as Jack briskly walked out the door. Vaughn looked forward to returning home himself that evening. But with Sydney missing, he knew ho would get little or no sleep...

"Okay Mr. Vaughn, what is your so-called plan?" Jack spit. He had not really meant his words to be as harsh as they were, but he couldn't help it. He could never control his emotions when his daughter was in trouble. It was his one problematic fault. Well, that and having no parenting skills whatsoever...
Luckily, Vaughn understood and forgave. "Well, you say it was Sark who she was last heard with?"
"Yes, that's right Mr. Sark at the chemical restoration center." Jack prompted.
"Whatever deal this was, it was in exchange for the antidote. And obviously, Sydney fulfilled her side of the agreement because we got the antidote in the mail. My theory is, that Sark took her somewhere for her part to be completed, but then broke the deal by not letting her go when she was done. The problem is, we don't know what it was that Sydney agreed to. If we could find that out, we could find out that, we could be one step closer to finding her.
"And how do you suggest we find this out?" Jack asked.
"We ask the person that knows Sark like the back of her hand. His employer, Irina Derevko." Vaughn spoke with a certain confidence that made Jack hopeful that they might actually find Sydney very soon. Even after all these years, maybe Jack had never actually understood what the words, "False Hope" meant.....
"That might actually work." Jack convinced.
"Then let's go see her now." Vaughn left no room for conversation as he turned to leave, silently prompting Jack to follow. And he did.
