Alias

[herewiss13]

First off, when Syd and Faux-Franny were struggling on the porch, and the camera was filming from inside, through a large glass door, just how long it did take to realize that the door wasn't going to be there for much longer.

Secondly, thanks for saving Will. Enough people have died. Sometimes it's ok to survive. I'd hoped, even after seeing him in the bath-tub that he might just be really, really hurt.

Thirdly, anywhere else, a three year gap in time would be jumping the shark like nobody's business. On Alias, it's just the last in a long line of huge, but oddly plausible plot twists...although this is by far the twistiest. Taking about twisting the shipper knife...among other things. This show doesn't just continually change the playing field, it roto-tills the old one and then sows mines!

Frankly, when she showed up, unblemished, in Hong Kong I was afraid we'd gone back to the very beginning and everything since had just been a dream/conditioning/Matrix fantasy or something. I really should have known better.

Finally, if Sydney's been "out of play" for three years now, shouldn't Sloane rule the world or something? The Rambaldi mythos is quite intriguing, but it's reached the X-files point, where consitency and more solid info are needed, rather than the continually hand-waving and ret-conning CC provided as the years went by. No more hints!

...I wonder if Marshall is married now too? He and the NSA gal deserve eachother. I'm sure Marshall can whip-up a super-potent anti-persperant to combat his flop-sweat.

...well, it wasn't the traditional cliffhanger, but you can be damn sure I'm desperate for next fall already...just so I can get the damn thing explained to me!
