(BTW, I take it you've read
Denial fic, or rather fix it fic, is especially easy with everything this show has provided in terms of escape routes. There are canonical doppelgangers (who's to say Irina in the last two episodes was any more Irina than the one Jack killed back when was?), Jack when blowing himself up was in cave full of Rambaldi immortality juice, and as for Sloane, he had a canonical breakdown after Nadia's death (the writers, asked whether Nadia's ghost that Arvin sees is meant to be genuinenly supernatural, have said no, that's Sloane beating himself up), and given that plus all his other issues, one can certainly explain his actions and come up with a scenario that has him and Jack escaping from the caves.
