ALIAS - 30 Seconds

Sydney: Leiu de Pasion?
Marshall: You think it's too tacky?
Sydney: I'll work with it.


I can't handle this crap. Alright I can. But did Renee really have to die? And Nadia? I'm more upset about Renee. I really loved her. Not that I didn't love Nadia...I just got used to her not being there. But Renee, she was a badass. She was the only new character that I actually cared about. Why couldn't they have knocked off Rachel or Tom? I wouldn't have cared about them. I guess that's the point...but still.

I have this issue that I can't just watch the show and enjoy it for what it is...I always have to analyze the behind the scenes crap. Its mostly with stuff that goes way back...like the Michael investigating Prophet Five thing and this episode has it too. Like, did Abrams always intend for Sloane to have kept the real Page 47? And is that even possible? Because lets focus for a second and remember that Page 47 was originally written in invisible ink...that the CIA uncovered first in season one, so is the manuscript one of the artifacts that Sloane stole in colusion with Irina in season two and then turned back over and that's when he forged it? I just wonder about things like that. Especially on a show like this. Do the writers just pretend like thats how it was all along or did they really have that plan the whole time? Either way, it was ******* messed up for Sloane to kill Nadia after all that.

I loved all the french speaking in this episode though. Michael's supposed to be in all the episodes from here on out, and if he even gets one french line I'll be happy. That wall incenerating paint was freaking cool too. All of Renee's stuff was awesome, especially her scene with Sydney in the beginning and it was a cheap was for her to die after her being such a badass. Shannon's sad that she'll always think Sydney killed her. I don't think she thought that.

You can say what you want about JG, but it takes balls to make an idiot of yourself on national TV with that ridiculous accent/outfit at the beginning...not that she doesn't more than get to make up for it the rest of the time, but that crap was hilarious. I still, however, don't understand the significance of doubing Anna. Is it just so there is a double Sydney or is there some reason its Anna? Them meeting will be priceless considering that's only happened before in a dream. All I can say is that next week Michael better know right away that thats not Sydney.

Again...did Renee really have to die?
