Alias 3xwhatever

[vaznetti]

A few random notes before rushing off to read my flist.

To be honest, I liked it. Especially when Lauren ran to the van to get the bazooka from the glove compartment (where everyone keeps their bazookas, of course). Although with a gun, she might have had a chance of shooting Vaughn in the head. And the sequential double crosses between Sloane and Sark and Lauren were funny too, although if I were Sloane I'd start looking for more competant minions to replace the ones that were killed off this evening.

If I were Jack, I wouldn't let Vaughn play with my toys. But here's what I want to know: what does Jack have in there for "disposing the body": a crematorium or a sausage machine?

And then, there was this final scene:

Dixon: ...blah blah blah... Sloane's affair with your wife is now common knowledge. That can't be easy. I'm here if you want to talk.
Jack: That's OK. I'm just going to go sleep with her sister to get back at her.

And so he did.

Oh, and in the scenes from next week, where the voiceover went, "The words we've been waiting all season to hear," the B.H. shouted, "Vaughn's dead!"

Alas. Attempts to make Vaughn interesting have failed. Too bad. And I'm still confused about when, exactly, Irina killed Vaughn's father.


And now, off to see what all of you have to say.

Especially since she apparently killed him after she'd give birth in a Russian prison.

You know, I can plot my way out of the hole, but it annoys me to have to do so. On the other hand, it's an opportunity to make Vaughn's father evil, so it's not all bad.

I bet he's still alive, and we see him next season.

Frankly, if he doesn't turn out to be, not only still alive, but also a secret Russian spy under deep cover as an All-American CIA agent - not to mention Irina's cousin - I'll be SO disappointed. *g*

God, yes.

My folks were here, and i tried to explain who everyone was, and by the time I got to, "and the blonde is that guy's wife, but she's also a sleeper agent," I was giggling too much, and gave up anyway. You can't even begin to keep a straight face, explaining Alias.

Mom seemed to follow the Stargate episode I watched next, though. *grin*

The only thing you sound MORE crazy describing is Farscape. Because at least most people have a context for Russian spies. Sebacean-Scarran hybrids, on the other hand...

But still. The coincidence factor on Alias is higher than sky-high. And I don't believe in coincidences or leprechauns.

Auburn suggested that Bill Vaughn will turn out to be the head of the Covenant. Which is far too *interesting* to be possible.

I think he'll turn out to be Rambaldi. Maybe we should open a book on it.
