In the eleventh episode of the second season of Alias<\/i>, this show is continuously an experience, and I need help<\/i>. Intrigued? Then it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s time for Mark to watch Alias<\/i>.<\/p>\n
WHERE THE HELL DOES THIS SHOW GO FROM HERE? KANE KNOWS. SHE KNOWS<\/i>.<\/p>\n
Will<\/b><\/p>\n
Well, after some delay, Will has finally<\/i> been granted a job within the CIA. And it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a perfect job, honestly, one that I think he was suited for much earlier than this. Being an analyst is exactly the kind of job Will would excel in, you know? He can sift through data and connects points better than anyone else on this show. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m just curious how he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll intersect with any of the main stories at this point. Here, he acts as Sydney\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s friend, warning Vaughn to respect how Sydney feels about him. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s an interesting move on his part, and I do admire that while he has feelings for Sydney, he didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t try some weird, jealous power move. Rather, he just wants the best for Sydney, and if he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s gonna be a good friend, then this is a much better move than turning into some horrible Nice Guy or something similar, you know?<\/p>\n
Marshall<\/b><\/p>\n
This show really<\/i> knows how to pack in the tragedy, doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t it? I was actually super pleased with Marshall\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s story here because the writers didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t undercut any possible development for him. I was worried that Marshall would be rendered largely useless because he didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t have much field training (or possibly any<\/i>), and he certainly wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t trained to deal with torture. Yet in his own way, Marshall fights back, first by admitting the truth\u00e2\u20ac\u201dthat he memorized the code to create Echelon\u00e2\u20ac\u201dand then using that truth to get free and set up his master plan.<\/p>\n
And in the end, without knowing if his messages to SD-6 made it, Marshall did<\/i> do what he was trained to do: protect his country. Which is where the ironic tragedy comes in, y\u00e2\u20ac\u2122all: HE WASN\u00e2\u20ac\u2122T ACTUALLY HELPING HIS COUNTRY. Well, at least not intentionally<\/i>. His ignorance, however, doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t diminish what he does. He stalls until the last minute, when he reveals that his Echelon code just created a game of Pong. Y\u00e2\u20ac\u2122all, he was willing to die<\/i> to prevent these men from getting access to Echelon. Awkward, mild-mannered, and sweet Marshall was fully prepared to give up his life. AND THEN HE HELPS SAVE SYDNEY, TOO. I just??? I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know if we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll get another story like this, but it was a huge<\/i> improvement for his character. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s too bad he returned to Sloane after Sloane basically wrote him off as both dead and<\/i> replaceable. I HATE ARVIN SLOANE.<\/p>\n
Agent Kane<\/b><\/p>\n
EVERY CELL IN MY BODY IS TERRIFIED OF WHAT SHE JUST DISCOVERED. ALL OF THEM. I have no idea what the ramifications are for this episode, and that<\/i> scares me, too. She came in to find out who killed Emily Sloane, and in the process, she zeroed in on Jack Bristow as her number one suspect. Through this, she unknowingly discovered that he has secrets, and these secrets are evidence of his disloyalty on a grander scale. She\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s so<\/i> good at her job, too, and despite that the CIA assists Jack in providing evidence of his alibis and stories, SHE STILL ZEROES IN ON THE TRUTH. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d admire it more if she wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t working for an organization that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s downright demonic, but HERE WE GO.<\/p>\n
Y\u00e2\u20ac\u2122all, that scene where Jack and Vaughn just stare at one another without saying anything, fully aware that Kane figured Jack out\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 FUCK. IT\u00e2\u20ac\u2122S SO DAMNING.<\/p>\n
