Remnants is the 10th episode of Season 3 of Alias and the 53rd episode overall. The identity of the mysterious "St. Aidan" forces Sydney to pull a stunned Will out of witness protection. But the pursuit sends the two old friends on a collision course with Allison -- the woman who ruined both their lives. Meanwhile, a jealous Robert Lindsey arrests Jack and Vaughn as conspirators in Sydney's escape from NSC custody, Sloane, still under pressure from Lindsey, puts a plan in motion to eliminate Sydney, and Dr. Brezzel has an unpleasant run-in with Sark.

Trivia

  • International titles:
    • German: Überreste (Remains)
    • French: Jeu de piste (Treasure hunt)
  • David Cronenberg was billed as Special Guest Star in this episode.
  • Will Tippin's witness protection name is Jonah.
  • The Hotel in which deposited the Rambaldi-Box is called "Verlustzeit". It's a nonsense mix of two German words - "Verlust" ("loss") and "Zeit" ("time"). "Verlorene Zeit" would be the accurate translation for "lost time" - even though a hotel would never be named like that.
  • Motorola took over from Nokia as the sponsor of the series at this phone, so all phones changed brands accordingly.
  • Melissa George does not appear in this episode.

Quotes

  • Sydney Bristow: You know that if I wanted to hurt you, I could. You're my best friend. You're my oldest friend. I love you.
  • Will Tippin: Why are you aiming the gun at me?


  • Michael Vaughn: Despite the fact that he almost killed her, the doctor was great.


  • Michael Vaughn: Think that was the best move? Punching Lindsey in the face?

Jack: Based on the comments he was making, it was obvious that you and I were going to end up here no matter what we did. Whether I hit him or not. I wasn't about to pass up the opportunity.
