Like in the episode where Jack, Irina and Syd went to Vancouver to recover The Horizon from the bank (Maternal Instincts?) and Jack took out Peyton, but didn't even check to make sure she was dead. That was out of character for him - after Syd was kidnapped and her life was made so difficult by Peyton, it seemed like Jack Bristow would spray her with bullets or something.<BR/><BR/>I guess though, the show would have ended a lot sooner if they did take out their enemies and were better shots. I hope the real CIA is more efficient, but I'm glad Alias went on as long as it did : )Kelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17625363390876945873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17309641.post-1151945648759281162006-07-03T09:54:00.000-07:002006-07-03T09:54:00.000-07:00One thing my brother and I began commenting on was...One thing my brother and I began commenting on was how when they had the chance to do in an enemy (Sark, Irina, Anna, whoever) and didn't do it, that person caused more grief later than anuyone should have to experience. But, they never learned. Time and time they left them alive, and unarrested, or turned their backs on them after only knocking them out, and the baddy would escape and return to almost kill them or ruin a plan later. <BR/>What we learned- once you have a bad guy, on the level of Alias bad, down you don't walk away until they are dead.uncle111https://www.blogger.com/profile/06648380991715575787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17309641.post-1151785810836541692006-07-01T13:30:00.000-07:002006-07-01T13:30:00.000-07:00lhaaheim said: "I wish my daddy would say things l...lhaaheim said: <I>"I wish my daddy would say things like that about me that was an amazing speech Jack gave. :-)"</I><BR/><BR/>I think it's true that most of our real-life dads could benefit from a better team of writers.

I also love how the CIA uses tranquilizer darts. My sister and I always laugh. You can tell by the sound of the gun when they are using tranqs. I always call them out, "Tranq gun."

I even love the strained moments in the seasons when Jack pulls away (like standing her up in the restaurant after hypnosis when he has that flash that she is going to find out that Laura was really Irina). Wow what a painful scene as Syd realizes that Jack doesn't want to get close to her, and one of the first times she and Vaughn are intimate right afterwards when she cries to him about being stood up and how she can't do this (double agent) anymore/doesn't know who she is. Love it!<BR/><BR/>Two things that strike me when I think about Syd's viewpiont of Jack. 1. She takes things at face value too much with practically everyone, especially Jack (Jack even comments on this in the restaurant episode). She does it time and time again in later episodes which is funny given that she is supposed to be so brilliant at seeing all the possibilities and angles of a situation. Maybe she is unable to think 3 dimentionally about her own personal life? And 2. off topic but 1 makes me think of 2, did you ever notice that Syd is a terrible shot in the series? She and the others cannot shoot anyone accurately! Made me laugh when watching the first Anna episodes in S1 when Syd borrows Dixon's gun to shoot the strap on the bag Anna is carrying up that ladder in the basement of the building (with the Sun glass thingy in it) and she has no problem releasing the messenger bag strap and one-upping Anna. Not a sign of the poor shooting to come in practically every other episode!

It's the first time she really sees how much he loves her. A couple days ago I decided to start rewatching all the seasons, starting w/ the pilot of course. :) The only thing I don't like about watching the earlier seasons is how strained Syd and Jack's relationship is, I love how they get closer every season. One of my other fav moments is in The Box pt. 1 where Syd volunteers to go up in the ducts and as she's climbing through Jack reaches up and touches the duct. It's the first physical gesture of care and concern we see from him toward Syd, so sweet and fatherly. :)SRMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01576968119404544145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17309641.post-1151627120391964022006-06-29T17:25:00.000-07:002006-06-29T17:25:00.000-07:00ugh one of my favorite scenes shot of all time...l...ugh one of my favorite scenes shot of all time...love the chemistry between syd and vaughn especially in season 2.<BR/><BR/>so, i was surfing around my usual alias websites and found some wallpapers from around this episode..check em out theyre really good: (I had to put the links on two seperate lines)<BR/><BR/>1)http://marina.disparue.net/overexposed/<BR/>collages/unhealthy.jpg<BR/><BR/>2)http://allalias.com/~broken/<BR/>wallpapers/fear.jpgAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17309641.post-1151607322495256202006-06-29T11:55:00.000-07:002006-06-29T11:55:00.000-07:00i tottally love jacks little speech. rip jack bris...i tottally love jacks little speech. rip jack bristow.blahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06710545482824813766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17309641.post-1151605931122686152006-06-29T11:32:00.000-07:002006-06-29T11:32:00.000-07:00They had some moments in season 4; like Liberty Vi...They had some moments in season 4; like Liberty Village, and a couple others, of the finale of season 4 and the proposal, it was like the old Vaughn and Syd.

This is the season where JG was referring to Michael as her best friend and it shows. it's almost as if they aren't working from the script, it's so natural, like a regular conversation between friends. <BR/><BR/>I enjoyed their chemistry in season 3, but 4 and 5 did nothing for me, especially in the end.Girlscouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09488863065118161693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17309641.post-1151598370720650132006-06-29T09:26:00.000-07:002006-06-29T09:26:00.000-07:00this is also when JG/MV's chemistry on set was re...this is also when JG/MV's chemistry on set was really good- you can see it in their faces.
