Apple Store. Jack has Marshall looking up Leo 47 Norte on his computer. Jack asks him to find the intel without it getting traced back to APO. Marshall's totally up for some conspiracy! Marshall finds the file they're looking for. A man named Jean Bertrand was in charge of the operation. As Marshall tries to locate Bertrand, he blabbles on and on about taking apart his Calc professor's car and reassembling it in his classroom, and someone on the writing staff likes Real Genius, I think. "What? It was hot and I was hungry!" Best. Movie. Ever. Getty enters and Marshall geeks out and jumps up all, "WE'RE NOT DOING ANYTHING CONSPIRATORIAL NO SIR." Jack just rolls his eyes and answers his ringing phone. Jack says, "That is...unexpected," into the phone and then tells the person on the other end that he'll be there soon. "Was that Syd?" asks Marshall. Jack shoots him a look. "Well, your voice...it modulates a little whenever you're talking to Sydney." Aw. Jack's not feeling the "aw," though, and just asks what Marshall has on Bertrand. Marshall locates Bertrand in Paris, and Jack tells him to forward the intel to Dixon and to avoid using the APO servers.
Malibu Pregnant Barbie Penthouse. Syd opens the door, and Jack can barely hide his smirk. "Is she still here?" he asks. Syd kind of gives him this look like, "Uh, DUH," and then walks back inside the house without a word and kind of a roll of her head that's really funny and Jack makes this face like, "I see my daughter's going to be a PILL about this," and the whole little scene is hilarious. Like, I missed it the first go around because it's so quick and subtle, but thanks to Mr. TiVo, I've now watched it five times and every time it cracks me the hell up.
Jack slowly makes his way over to his wife and she turns and sirens, "Jack..." and he smirks at her and says, "You look...well," he finally manages, and it's totally obvious that he was thinking, "Hot. Smoking. Wicked. Good god, woman. You look UNREAL. Oh, wait. I can't say that in front of my daughter. Do me? Can I say that in front of my daughter? No. No, I can't. Okaaaay. What do I say? WHAT DO I SAY? For lord's sake, I can remove a bullet from a brain with a spork, but I can't come up with something appropriate to say to my--humminah humminah HOT STUFF wife! I need some water." Irina meltingly smiles at him and says that she got his messages and she wanted to reply, but she sensed that it might be a CIA trap. "Look at us," she says. "About to become grandparents." "I'm doing my best to ignore that," quips Jack. Heeeee. Irina says to Jack that she fears for Sydney's safety and Sydney asks if Dixon found out anything. Jack says that he hasn't yet, but he's with the source now.
