Happenings

• Already close to a key they could use to operate it, the Covenant get their hands on Rambaldi artefact, a cube that has the name Irina engraved on it and Jack warns that the content threaten Sydney's life.

• Analyses of the recording of the flight communication reveal that Sark made a phone call to someone they can't hear to whom he says "Not if I see you first, love." Later, Jack overhears Lauren say the exact same thing to Vaughn and clearly is suspicious.

Characters
