Season 3

Now
in Lindsey's custody, Sydney is imprisoned and tortured at Camp Williams,
a secret NSC detention facility. She befriends Campbell, another prisoner.
Lindsey relieves Dixon, who takes full responsibility for hiding Syd's
secret. Lauren accuses Vaughan of aiding a fugitive, while he says Lindsey
is funded by black money. Unconvinced, Lauren travels with Lindsey to
Washington to observe Syd's interrogation.
Vaughn goes to Jack, who tells him that Sloane will help them, making it
look like The Covenant is trying to break out Syd. They put together a
team of eight mercenaries. They will steal the Camp Williams blueprints
from the FEMA building.
Lindsey pressures Lauren, who's unaware of Syd's torture, to write a fair
report of their treatment of Syd. He says he will threaten Syd with the
memory-retrieval surgery in order to force her to decode a message found
under her desk in Rome. He promises it will only be a threat.
During her torture, Syd steals a paper clip. When Lauren suspects torture,
Lindsey blackmails her by threatening to nail Vaughn for aiding Syd. Syd
picks the lock with the clip, kills her torturer and breaks free. Lauren
sees the guards beat Syd.
Jack and Vaughn contact Brill, an old comrade, who joins them for a fee of
3 million. Jack takes Vaughn to a storage facility of guns and money.
At
FEMA, Sloane, in a van, knocks out their phone system and routes all calls
to a fake number. Vaughn answers their request for a technician and Jack
goes in. Meanwhile Sloane and Vaughn break into the building's
sub-basement. Tapping into the phone lines, Sloane poses as a director and
calls away Jack's guard. Vaughn pushes in a video snake and snaps images
of the blueprints that Jack holds up to the camera.
Jack is discovered and Sloane saves his life by taking a bullet for him.
Sloane's allergic to morphine so Jack extracts the bullet without
anesthesia. Jack wonders why Sloane saved his life. Sloane says he's a
reformed man and that Jack and Syd are all he has left — his absolution,
considering his crimes. Vaughn has Marshall access classified docs on
NSC's computer network. Marshall finds that all files pertaining to Camp
Williams have been removed. Lauren arrives, admits that Vaughn was right
and offers her help.
Lindsey tortures Campbell to force Syd to reveal the code. She
capitulates, says they are coordinates but doesn't know to what. Campbell
then reveals himself to be a fake. They knew Syd's profile, which reveals
her major weakness to be empathy. Lindsey informs her that she will
undergo the neuro-stimulation surgery in one hour.
Jack, Vaughn and the team speed to the facility. Lauren, already there,
opens the main gate. Jack enters, finds Syd's cell empty — she's on the
operating table. The team finds her just in time and a gun battle ensues.
Lauren shoots and kills Campbell. They take Syd to a chopper, where Sloane
waits. Syd says she gave Lindsey the wrong coordinates.
