3x19: "Hourglass"
Jesus Christmas! I heart Alias.
So Vaughn in very nice sunglasses tells Syd and Jack that they were right; Lauren is the mole. Jack dictates what Vaughn has to do: act like nothing happened. 'Course the natural reaction is like "Right. My fucking wife just fucking betrayed me. You want me to act normal?" After a little tiff, Jack gets the last say: "You married her." I just remember laughing at that and saying OHH BURN.
DUDE. DAVID CARRADINE. aka, the guy from the "Kung Fu" series (which, I admit, used to watch way too much) and more recently, Bill from Kill Bill. Sark got his ass kicked momentarily before Olivia darted him. Dave made Sark look so bad. But then Sark shoots him later in the desert so ha. We're even.
Hey heeey. It's Jack and Irina chatting it up. Jack had to ask the burning question: who is the Passenger? COM-PU-TER MAL-FUNC-TION. OVER-LOAD OVER-LOAD. USER ACCOUNT TERMINATED. Someone's touchy.
I loved when Jack told Marshall to act normal. The best thing. in the world. and the scene thereafter. A classic. Words cannot describe my love for Marshall.
Wow, Lauren was really slick. I didn't evenn realize she got Marshall's fingerprint. I was paying attention to the pen she was waving over the fake inscription/code. Slick, real slick...she's too slick for her own good! (good one Amy, good one)
Okay, I definitely thought that the code was going to be printed on a piece of paper and not on some plexiglass. C'mon, kill a tree.
So Lauren meets with Mommy dearest and Syd/Vaughn find out that Olivia is also Covenant. Very startled they are. Then the counseling session with Lauren/Vaughn: oh that was good stuff you guys. And again, I had no idea this was all part of the plan to get the manuscript from Lauren's Richmond home. Jabrams is really sly these days.
I WAS HYPERVENTILATING WHEN LAUREN GOT UP TO LOOK FOR VAUGHN. I couldn't handle it! SHE WAS RIGHT THERE. I definitely thought she caught him red-handed when she walked in on him. But Vaughn, oh Vaughn. You are just too good. Wedding pictures! Brilliant! Then spy sex. and Marshall's priceless expression upon hearing those, um, sounds. Syd's like "Turn that shit off."
Meanwhile, Sloane's blubbering over his lost daughter. I was trying not to laugh when he was crying because the crying was a little over the top. Then again, when was the last time you saw such an evil little man cry? Syd played her card against Daddy and won. She's so smart.
I liked the club entrance scene with Syd slipping in while Vaughn causes some raucous with the guard. I think Vaughn could've taken him (not really). Dun dun dunnnn. Motion sensors! But then Marshall lays it down and tells Syd Sloane's really being executed. Out of anger and resentment toward her father, she goes through the sensors and slow motion shoot out-ness! Too cool. She grabs the hourglass (which was bigger than I thought) and is saved by Mr. Vaughn.
She gets back and uh-oh, Sloane's dead. I hate you Daddy and walks away. THE ENDING WAS THE BEST PART. Before, Jack had some wine and last words with Sloane ("sorry man, you're dying. sucks for you") but little did we know, the wine prevented Sloane from dying. Heh heh heh. So clever Jack, so clever. Clad in black, Jack shoots dead!Sloane up with some shit and wabam! "He's alive, he's alive!"
That was amazing.
And the music during the whole execution/Syd mission? Fit it perfectly.
Oh yeah, and Olivia tells Lauren that Vaughn's playing her for a fool!
Loved this episode very much because of Marshall and the fact that we're away from this spy drama. Everything is back to being thrilling and action-packed! JJ, way to kick it up a notch before the season ends!
Alksdjlkjghkjh! Vaughn. shirtless. wet. next. episode. wow.
Next episode: "Not everything was a lie."
