Chap 4

The cars stop and they see it is Matt and Eric Weiss unloading the car
with medical equipment to take care of Michael. All five of them take a
bag each and head inside the cabin to sit down. When they sit down Matt
addresses them all.

Matt: Okay, all that Mike needs is for Syd to change his bandages every 3-
4 hours to prevent infection and to stay off his feet as much as
possible, it will put a lot of pressure on his ribs and take longer to
heal if he walks a lot.

A: Why does she need to do his bandages? Any one of us can.

Matt rolls his eyes at her obvious dislike of the idea.

Matt: Well because Sydney has not only had this type of injury many times
before but she has medical services training so have Jack and Eric. And
Jack won't be here a lot, and Eric, well Eric is a guy.

A: Oh

She says embarrassed.

J: Well I have to get going, Kendall is expecting me back in LA for a
debriefing on the mission and then I'll stay at my place overnight and
head back tomorrow morning.

S: Can you get my laptop and something to work-on on your way back?

Syd asks walking into the room wearing jogging pants and a tank top.

J: Your laptop yes but why do you want to work now?

S: Can you blame me? I want to find her.

J: That's what we pay our analysts to do.

S: I have to do something or I'll go crazy knowing she's out there.

J: All right, I'll bring you whatever they have but I doubt it's much.

S: Thank you.

J: Well I'd better be leaving.

He walks over to her, kisses her on the cheek and turns to leave.

V: See you Jack.

Vaughn says walking into the room wearing a loose white t-shirt and sweat
pants.

J: Get well soon, Michael.

Jack says and to the surprise of everyone calling him Michael, and walks
oout the
door.

S: Good morning everyone.

Syd greets the rest of the room with a smile grwbbing some coffee and
offring some to Matt and Eric. Then grabs a cup for her and Vaughn.

V: Thanks. Sorry about last night.

He says looking at the ground.

S: Don't be. It's completely normal to have that type of reaction.

She counters sipping her coffee.

V: Well I still woke you up and I'm sorry for that.

S: Not necessarily, I'm a light sleeper, it comes with the territory.

V: I give up! I seriously don't know who you got the stubbornness from,
Jack or Irina!

He says exasperated and then realizes what he said.
