When did Sullivan exactly realize who the undercover guy (DiCaprio) was?
When does Sullivan find out who the undercover guy (DiCaprio) was in The Departed? Is it when he says on the phone:
So it is you. Thank God you're all right. We were very worried.
And how exactly does he know it's Costigan?

after Sullivan tells Costigan that he's taking over the case.
