Any ideas for additional reasons from some of the eppys this season?

Wildfire Girl

I think those reasons are totally perfect. Glad you're getting them updated Sis!

plushie232

plushie232

Yellow Mustang Girl

How did you get to be keeper of that? Oh the Vartan thread????

Yellow Mustang Girl

updated reasons.....

Guardian Angel
Reasons

Because he recruits her as a double agent (1.1)

Because even Weiss can see Vaughn cares for Sydney (1.2)

Vaughn nervously sitting at desk, figeting with a coin. Sydney is on a mission.
Weiss: Any word from her yet?
V: No, I don’t expect to hear anything from her till she gets back.
W: Your girlfriends’ name is Alice.
V: Will you shut up.
W: I’m just checking.
V: Get out of my office.

Because Syndey demands Vaughn become her handler again. (1.3)

Lambert: Who the hell do you think you're talking to?
Sydney: I know exactly who I'm talking to. Tell Devlin if Agent Vaughn isn't on the either end of this earpiece when I turn it on, the C.I.A. gets nothing.

Because Vaughn is her guardian angel… (1.3)

Sydney: Who am I talking to?
Vaughn: Your invisible friend.
S: Good. Where are you?
V: Satellite relay station back in LA, watching you from a 200-mile orbit.
S: (Looking at the sky) My guardian angel.


Because of the car wash scene (1.7)

At car wash
S: You sure you’re okay?
V: Yeah. I just –
S: Did you have a fight with your wife?
V: My what?
S: Your wife
V: What wife? I have no wife.
S: No? There was a picture in your office – you and that woman. I thought you were married.
V: She and I are not remotely – you thought I was married this whole time?
S: I guess so. What’s the big deal?
V: Nothing.

V: Why’d you ask me if I’d had a fight with my girlfriend?
S: I don’t know. Did you?
V: Huge.
S: (grins)

Because Sydney has Vaughn’s number. (1.4)

VAUGHN: (To Sydney) Okay, listen to me. There's something you need to know. When you first walked into my office with that stupid Bozo hair, I thought you were crazy. I thought you might actually be a crazy person. But I watched you, and I read your statement, and I've seen... I've seen how you think, I've seen how you work, I've seen how you are in this job. In this job, you see darkness. You see the worst in people and though the jobs are different and the missions change, and the enemies have a thousand names, the one crucial thing, the one real responsibility you have is to not let your rage, and your resentment, and your disgust, darken you. When you're at your absolute lowest, at your most depressed, just remember that you can always... you know. You got my number.

Because even Jack sees the tensions between them 1.07

Vaughn: Sydney's life is worth the risk!
Jack: Not to Sydney! Taking them down is what gets her up in the morning. Or... did you think it was those meetings she has with you?

Because he bought her a Christmas present 1.10

Vaughn: (embarrassed) I don't know. I was in this store, you know, um... this little antique place.
Sydney: (big smile) What were you doing in an antique store?
Vaughn: I don't know. (laughs nervously) Whatever. Um, look, if you don't like it just... don't tell me.

Because Vaughn wants to go to a hockey game with her 1.14

Vaughn: Yeah. Last week, when you talked about quitting SD-6--
Sydney: I was being naive.
Vaughn: No, but, um, what you said about wanting to go to a hockey game... wanting me to be part of your life... I, uh, I think I wasn't clear about something. (pause) That it would be nice to be in public with you, to actually get to look at you. Grab a pizza or go to a hockey game. I-I just... I wasn't clear that I would really like that, too.

Because Vaughn wants to break into the Vatican with her 1.16

Sydney: We'd have to leave tonight. You in?
Vaughn: (shy smile) Yeah. I'll break into the Vatican with you.

Because he belives in her … and he’ll throw her in his turnk 1.17

Sydney: You didn't think about it. Not once. The possibility that Rambaldi could be right about me.
Vaughn: No. I didn't.
Sydney: Why not?
Vaughn: Because I believe in you. Do you think I'd just throw anyone in my trunk?

Because Vaughn is about a mile across “that” line. 1.21

Weiss: I don't want your thanks. I want it to stop.
Vaughn: Look, Sydney's my responsibility . . .
Weiss: Mike, I'm not going to trivialize your relationship with her by calling it a crush . .
Vaughn: A crush?
Weiss: But whatever it is, it's starting to affect me and if that sounds selfish to you, I was hoping to retire fully vested. I know you genuinely care for her. I do, too. But there is a line that we have been sworn not to cross. We're about a mile past that.
Vaughn: I don't know how to be Sydney's handler without making it personal.
Weiss: Figure out a way.

Because he knows all her favorite spots and tracks her down 1.22

Sydney: Hi. How did you find me?
Vaughn: You told me a couple of months ago that when you feel the need to disappear, you go to the observatory. But the observatory was closed. And then I remembered you said the pier calms you down. But you weren't there. And you weren't at the bluffs and the palisades, either.
Sydney: You didn't really go to all those places.
Vaughn: Yeah, I did. And then I remembered you liked the train station, too. Normal people going to their normal jobs.
Sydney: I can't believe you remember that.

Because his watched stopped the day they met 2.8

Vaughn: This watch belonged to my father. It's broken now, but it used to keep perfect time. And when he gave it to me, he said, "You could set your heart by this watch." It stopped October 1st: the day we met. (Sydney is about to respond when her pager goes off, then Vaughn's goes off as well. They look to see who it is.) Kendall.
Sydney: Me too.

Because he gives her tickets to play mini golf so that he can watch her and Will and Francie play (2.9)
SYDNEY: Hi.
VAUGHN: Hey.
SYDNEY: Any word on the flower?
VAUGHN: Preliminary analysis indicates that it's anywhere from four to six hundred years old. (Syd gives him a look)
VAUGHN: Like I said, preliminary.
(He smiles at her and gives her something.)
SYDNEY: What's this?
(She looks at the mini golf tickets he's given her. Great smile.)
Sydney, Will and Francie all play mini golf together. Sydney's jogging around, having fun. Vaughn watches from nearby, smiling. Sydney laughs and takes another shot. Vaughn leaves.

Because Syd admits to Francie that she has a crush on a guy at work.(2.11)

(At Francie's restaurant, Syd and Fracie stitting there, drinking a cup of coffee and talking)
FRANCIE: What?
SYDNEY: I have a crush on a guy from work.
FRANCIE: Really? Who is he?
SYDNEY: Someone in my department. We've worked together for about a year now.
FRANCIE: You're kidding me. What's his name?
SYDNEY: Michael. And he's... I don't know how to describe him. He's smart... and he's funny. He's so cute.
FRANCIE: Hot cute, not goofy cute?
SYDNEY: Hot cute.

Because they actually go to dinner together (2.12)

Vaughn: The nearest Alliance cell is in Zurich. The CIA tracks SD-6 security section. There haven't been any signals, no movement.
Sydney: You're serious.
Vaughn: We've been to restaurants and sat near each other. We've met in parks and convenience stores, and all of them in LA where we are much more likely to be seen. Look, two things -- one, I think it's not that great a risk and two, I am hungry. I'm starving. I mean, we're going to be together anyway, why can't we be eating? Aren't you hungry?
Sydney: Yeah, I'm hungry. (Pauses) Let's do it.

Because he cannot sleep at night thinking about her (2.13)

Sydney: What?
Vaughn: I think you know what.
Sydney: I need you to tell me.
Vaughn: You need me to tell you what? That when you're on operations, I can't sleep at night. That when we're in debrief I have to force myself to remember what the hell we're supposed to be reviewing. When all I want to do is kiss you.

Because of their first kiss (2.13)



Because he broke up with Alice (2.14)
Sydney: About last night ...
Vaughn: Is this going to be about Alice?
Sydney: I know it's complicated ...
Vaughn: We're not together anymore.
Sydney: Since when?
Vaughn: Since this morning. The truth is, we've been over for a long time.


Because dinner can wait so that they can make love for the first time (2.14)

Vaughn: You're so beautiful.
Sydney: Dinner's ready.
Vaughn: You do have an oven. You know, we can reheat.

Because they wake up in bed together (2.15)

Because Sydney tells Vaughn she’s graduating that day. (2.15)

SYDNEY: Vaughn?
VAUGHN: How come you never call me Michael?
SYDNEY: I do sometimes. Vaughn?
VAUGHN: What?
SYDNEY: I'm graduating today.
VAUGHN: What? When the hell did you have time to take a class this year?
SYDNEY: I wasn't even going to go to the ceremony but... And I've been lying here remembering why I never gave school up and why I killed myself writing papers instead of... I don't know, accepting that I'd be an agent forever.
VAUGHN: You're going to quit the CIA, aren't you?

Because he is trying to get her in bed (2.16)

Vaughn: Can it wait?
Weiss: Apparently not, he wants Sydney too. Are you with her?
Vaughn: Uh ... No. I haven't seen her.
Weiss: You're in bed with her right now, aren't you?
Vaughn: I'm trying: just find out what he wants.

Because she offers him the middle drawer. (2.19)

Sydney: Vaughn. I mean, okay. The backpack is getting a little ridiculous.
Vaughn: What do you mean?
Sydney: (she points to her bureau) The middle drawer. It's yours.

Because he wants to take her to Santa Barbara (2.22)

(Hockey rink. Sydney and Vaughn.)
Sydney: I'm just so relieved for him, it's like I can breathe again.
Vaughn: You know where it's fun to breathe? Santa Barbara. You ever been?
Sydney: Yeah, I love it. The zoo, that giraffe with the crooked neck.
Vaughn: No, I mean, the beach, the Biltmore, the food. La Superica -- you ever been there?
Sydney: No.
Vaughn: Okay, we're going this weekend.
Sydney: Yeah, come on, as if we can go. There'll be some emergency, some--
(A cell rings.)

Because when Vaughn wakes up in the hospital he is dreaming of Sydney (3.5)

Because some things don’t change. (3.7)

Sydney: If the NSC wants to find me, they will. Look, I was someone else for two years, Vaughn - someone I don't even remember. What am I supposed to do now? Spend the rest of my life in hiding?
Vaughn: Between that and a lobotomy, there isn't a choice!
Sydney:. I can't keep running forever.
Vaughn: I'll do everything I can to make sure you won't have to.
Sydney: Vaughn, why are you doing this? My life is already a disaster . . . now yours is, too.
Vaughn: What happened between us - everything. The way it is . . . isn't anyone's fault, Sydney. And even though everything's changed, some things don't. I'm not gonna lose you twice.

Sydney: I can't help it, I just miss you. I do.
Vaughn: You know we can't do this.
Sydney: Give me a break, it's a dream - we can do whatever we want. At least, I can. They kiss.

Because all he can think about is her (3.21)

Vaughn: Whatever Lauren did to me, I want you to know I take full responsibility for what's happened. I messed up, and if you can't get past that, I understand. But will you try?
Sydney: I don't know.
Vaughn: Will you at least think about it? Because it's all I can think about.
Sydney: Yeah. I will think about it.

Because Vaughn saved her from being consumed by her hatred of Sloane, and she wants to save him from his hatred of Lauren (3.21)

Because of Vaughn’s proposal story (4.05)

Phil: How'd he pop the question?
Sydney (fumbling): He...took me to...
Vaughn (cutting in): Santa Barbara, actually.
He gives Sydney a half smile, which she returns. We can tell they are both thinking of the trip they were supposed to go on three years ago.
Vaughn: I had this whole romantic weekend planned. Presidential Suite at the Biltmore, candlelit dinner on the cliffs overlooking the ocean... So we went into town, and she wouldn't stop talking about the zoo. So, we went to the zoo. Figured I'd get it over with. And then I saw how happy it made her.

Wildfire Girl

Thanks for keeping this updated.

Yellow Mustang Girl

I think I may need to make the reasons smaller.....

And we still need to update the reasons for tha gap I have for this season. However, I think there were some eppys that just didn't have good reasons..... and I don't think we have to have reasons for every eppy.

What do you all think?
