CONRAD: Your search for Rambaldi... has frustrated you.
SLOANE: Frustrated me? You mean that meaningless quest that you sent me on thirty years ago that made me abandon the CIA and betray everyone I ever loved?
CONRAD: Your wife has been killed.
SLOANE: How did you know that?
CONRAD: Put away the gun. There is something I must show you.
So no mention of Irina--which still doesn't put the idea out of school, IMO.
And Sloane's mention here of abandoning the CIA suggests that Jack's description (as we learn in "The Telling") of Arvin as "disgraced, abandoned, alone" (misquoting) was Arvin's cover story for his exit from the CIA?
And where the hell, by the way, did the NSA get two dozen Rambaldi artifacts (vide The Telling)? Not simply in the course of the struggle with SD-6, surely. They've been Rambaldi collectors too?
