Exactly. "My passport? I don't know, I haven't used it in years, I put it in a safe place somewhere right after I came back from that trip to East Berlin to see my grandmother."

If she tries to pass herself off as anyone but Paige Jennings, and gets found out, she's probably looking at a very long prison sentence. Basically, her best chance right now is to put that bottle away, write down exactly what her story is, spend the night memorizing it until she believes it, and then show up next day believably shocked that her parents were Russian spies and a good innocent explanation for absolutely every decision she's made over the past few years.
