Alias, or: How Not to Be a Good Spy

[icepixie]

These people? How the hell did they get in the CIA? We watched episode three of season one before tonight's episode, and we saw Sydney and Vaughn talking while studiously avoiding looking at each other in public. How is this not more suspicious than just talking to each other? How?

And tonight's episode... *shakes head *shakes Vaughn*

- The costumes for the meeting in Berlin...OMG. While anything is better than those bangs (AUGH!), Sydney was...whoa. And Vaughn? AUUUGGGHHH!!! He was a trying to be either Robert Smith or a goth version of Boy George, I'm not sure which. And was he wearing one of those upside-down star things that indicates Satanism? Vaughn, you're not a Satanist. You're married to Satan.

- Oh, look, it's Lauren being evil. Common refrain throughout this episode. Although I like the wig.

- Vaughn? IDIOT. Sydney, just give up. Weiss is over there, go hook up with him. He at least seems to have a brain.

- Oh, and it's the return of Sydney's horrible Southern accent. Why do they let JG do that? Why? And why does she always use it when she's trying to sound stupid? I choose to be offended.

- Hey, it's Spy!Daddy with a clue by four. WHACK! Oh, wait. I forgot; Vaughn has a brain the size of a pea. Subtlety doesn't work on him.

- Okay, Lauren is a really bad spy too. Waving the mini-CD around isn't suspicious at all...

- Bwah! Sydney with Matrixy moves!

- Sark killed Mumbly-But-Cool Black Guy! I liked him! Just when he was about to kill Satan-spawn, too. You are soooo off the Christmas card list, Sarky-boy.

- Vaughn is the worst spy ever. How do you miss that big fat button pad in the closet? How? HOW?

- Vaughn! You shot your best source of information on this passenger thing! Why didn't you just shoot the gun out of his hand, not kill him?!?! *thwaps Vaughn* Bad spy, no cookie.

- Ooooh, Jack is pissed. Sloane's goin' down. *pause* I hope this doesn't tie into that spoiler I heard a while back...*

- Oh, look, Vaughn's taking the clue by four to heart...only took him the entire episode...bwah! If Lauren didn't see that suspicious look on his face, she's almost as blind as he is.

- Dundundundun! It's the wig! Oh, I wonder what that could mean...

- In conclusion: this show will never be realistic. Ever. These people are imbeciles. Especially Vaughn. Natural selection should've gotten rid of all of them by now.

So a while back, I heard mumblings about Sydney having this long-lost sister...tell me it's not Sloane and Irina's child. That kind of thing belongs on daytime television, not prime time.
