Poor Francie

Jack doesn't want candy...ever

I've no idea I'm lost when it comes to really "girly" stuff like that
I guess it depends on a variety of things...where you/your friend live, how much time you/friend have...

Absolutely

Ugh: the scene with Will and Francie annoys me for some reason: it's just no fun at all seeing them drunkenly hanging around together

I don't know how often I've seen people on tv/in movies ask a bank guy "What about terror attacks and the political situation when it comes to my safe" or something along those lines

Hell no I think the fun about this whole thing is to be together with your friend(s) and try on a lot of ugly dresses and drink some champagne until you found "the ultimate wedding dress"

Dixon is such a sweety

Another one of the infamous parking garage of doom scenes
Ouch: poor Syd.


And that's it again

ETA:

Where did you go, D?

I'm off to bed now

It's been a nice evening once again
Take care and talk tomorrow

Wtf is Jack's problem! It's pretty sad when Vaughn (a guy she only recently met and formed a friendship with) holds her life in higher priority than her own father does. Jack is making me so mad in this episode! If I believed there was even a chance a hit was put out on my kid, I'd pull her/him out no hesitation!

The situation with Jack is very frustrating and complicated, but he really really cares about her (you'll see that later on)

I'm with Jack on this though - Syd would have never accepted that option and they would have known she was the mole immediately, too. Merely being alive doesn't have any meaning to her - not now and not after all the terrible things that happened Vaughn doesn't understand that and he's totally clueless about Sloane and the Alliance, too

And that's just me, but there's no hiding from Arvin Sloane. She wouldn't have been safe either way

When you explain it like that, it does make sense. Jack is just frustrating as a father in general. It seems like it's always so easy for him to just turn Sydney away or be unavailable to her. I'm still in the first season...but I'm wondering if maybe he had something to do with what happened to her mom. He's just one big mystery lol. There are times when I see that he loves her and others...I'm just very unsure.

Oh, you're observation really nailed an important part of the issue here They'll address this problem over the course of the 5 seasons though and many things will become clearer

You'll learn more about Syd's mum soon (in S1) It's worth watching

He is That's what makes him a great character And like a lot of people in Alias he's morally ambiguous - he might be on the side of the good guys, but he (and basically everyone else as well) is not only using ethical "good" methods to achieve his goals

The Bristow family situation and its development over the course of the show in general are very complex and really awesome to watch So, have fun!

make time. when you're not sleeping

Edit - I'll watch this and the latest before Monday, honest.

NOW.

we resume at the bottom of the hole. well, not quite. she's stuck in the ladder

follow the blood, Syd

Freelancer.

snapshot of Sloane looking evil.

SD-6 has a hospital.

poor Mrs Dixon.

"her results are too perfect" it's a lie-detector test, she didn't 'lie'

Hassan!

Uh oh, Donati Park. set-up.

shut your mouth, Will, the bug is listening.

superbug!

looking good, Syd even in casualwear.

you guys are so inconspicuous. not.

Oh Marshall.

We know you're trying to catch her out, Arvin.

oh dear, don't say you think of her as your daughter.

send it out through the CIA server, sure, Arvin.

Parachuting into the party like a boss, with some Smash Mouth.

Marshall explaining again get's a wonderful smile out of Jen though

Syd forgot about Francie! (why would she go alone though?)

Will talking to the pin.

Don't believe it, guys! She'll be fine.

nice fake puking.

Marshall and his headphones!

Jack knows what he's talking about

sure, the guy would be in really subtle BRIGHT RED.

TOLD YOU SO. - Jack

Drunk Will and Francie.

lol at the Star Wars mention in hindsight.

here's what not to do when drunk - talk to the bug.

"STOP TORTURING WILL TIPPIN! HE'S MY FRIEND!"

HELLO WILL TIPPIN.

Hey Russek, enjoy the missions while they last.

wrong answer, Will. you'll be smacked up in no time.

that's a big vault.

follow the money, almost $400 million.

'GLOVE BOX' Also, 'YOUR CAR NEEDS CLEANING'

Dammit, Marshall! You're just too good. Let's blame Russek.

Hey Dixon, welcome back to the land of the living.

such a sweet-talker.

run, Syd... not into the path of that car!

next one!

Here we go:

Incredible that she didn't break anything
Quote:
Freelancer.
I like that we'll get back to that... it's not subtle, but they didn't just drop it later
Quote:
snapshot of Sloane looking evil.
aka every scene he's in
Quote:
SD-6 has a hospital.
Scary actually, they got banks, hospitals, ... who knows what else
Quote:

It kinda makes sense... perfection is suspicious
Quote:
Uh oh, Donati Park. set-up.
Good thing Jack was there - Vaughn is too inexperianced when it comes to this stuff... especially regarding Sloane...

Awesome entrance

Something nice in between all the drama
Quote:

Yeah, that still is not exactly the best writing
Quote:
Drunk Will and Francie.
One of the weirder scenes of S1 to this day

Yeah, this is just too tragic
