Title: Episode 4.20
Description: The Descent

Bloody hell! :o

A quick moan before I run off to watch the second part . . I am so f**cked off that Lena Olin was credited at the start. She didn’t even bloody appear in the episode, there was no reason to give the game away. <_<

I don’t know if the episodes were sold on her return in the US, but if they weren’t, there was no excuse for doing it. It was just plain stupid imo. I know it all comes down to the ‘money issues’ at the end of the day, but 24 managed to hide all their important ‘surprise returns’ this season, Alias should’ve followed suit, especially seeing as Lena’s is arguably the most important return to Alias. :rolleyes:

Ditto your :o and your moan.

Although after the credits, I did wonder whether she was just going to appear in a flashback.

Should be going to bed but.... :shifty:

I totally missed season 2 and used the credits to pour myself a drink :ph43r: so the whole Sydney's mum being alive was completely out of the blue for me :o

:o @ Dixon and Chase :o but quite sweet :blush:

I'm totally confused over Sloane, is he bad again or just infiltrating himself to get Elena (sp) :unsure: :shrug:

No Weiss again :tear:

OMG!!!

What a fantastic episode!!

Vaughn showing the ring to Marshall, Jack starting to tell him there was no way in hell, Dixon and Chase kissing, Sloane going all evil again (and like you said, is he really evil?), Dixon getting shot, to his last words :o

:thumbsup: Amazing episode :o

So many shocking moments from the engagement ring to Dixon's words at the end, had me glued to the edge of my seat.

I was sure that Dixon was dead, especially when it was revealed that he was happy with Chase :o

That's the big question, is Sloane really evil?????

melian - August 15, 2005 08:43 AM (GMT)
Hey Carla ;)

I don't think Sloane is really evil, well maybe a little bit. I honestly think that Nadia may mean that much to him :shrug:

Wow, how good was that episode ! :thumbsup:

Love the bit with the ring, I`m just hoping he doesn`t shoot me. :lmao: I loved Sydney`s alias as the Rambaldi vixen , and yay for the whole Jack-Katja scene. :lmao:

I spoilt on the whole Irina returns thing ages ago ( curses, Watch with Kristin ! :rolleyes: ) but it was still a surprise that she was her sister`s prisoner. :o What a family. :lol:

Katie, I assume that Greg Grunberg was off filming that pilot which didn`t get picked up, and that`s why the eps. have been Weiss-lite lately ? :shrug:

Countdown - only 2 to go ! :cry:

At least next week is the Alias weekend on Bravo, that`s something to look forward to... :thumbsup:

I think Syd's mum being alive was a total shock to everyone watching on Bravo as Lena Olin's name wasn't in the titles. I wonder if it was shown as a two parter in the states might explain Moe and Michelle's comments. :ponder:

Anyway Rambaldi, sphere of destiny blah blah f***ing blah I am so sick of it. :yawn: :frusty:

Apart from the ending the only thing's I really enjoyed were the little lighter moments - Vaughn almost accurate prediction of Jack's response to him asking to marry Syd, Syd's weapon's stockpile in her bedroom and Syd in the fur @ the jewellery store. :lol:

I was happy for Dixon hope he's ok.

Now that is interesting... :ermm:

So there was no reference to her at all until she was on the screen then?

I wonder if it was Bravo that had the decency and intelligence to take her name off. <_<

Well we haven't actually properly seen her yet have we, we see Dixon watching someone being put in the van and its only right at the end that he says who it was.

Was it shown as a two parter in the states ? I doubt Bravo would change the titles ( although there was one episode which for some reason had the S3 titles on it :shrug: ) more likely there was one set of titles for it being shown as a two parter and another for them being shown seperately. :ponder:

Psycho Jack - August 16, 2005 07:48 PM (GMT)
Yup, it was a two-parter in the US. :)

Hmmm... duno why then! :ermm:
