Alias 208, The Passage

OMG you guys. OMG. You take you're Winchesters, I'll take the Bristows anytime.



OMG SQUEE. I'm over halfway through and freaking out here. THE BRISTOW SHOW IS BACK BABY! Holy shit. Sydney, Jack and IRINA OMG working together as a team! On a mission! Without walls and chains! And JACK PUT THE NECKLACE ON HER. So it was laced with C4 but OMG! This is becoming too much for me to take. God, the looks between them! The shot of Jack and Irina there, silent but so much was there between them, the intensity overwhelms me. And the shot of the three of them walking together! SPYFAMILY LOOOOVE! I am just so excited to see what happens and OMG have I mentioned the three of them working together?

OMG relationship advice!! They are *such* a family arguing over a boy and what she should do. And I love how Irena talks so calmly about Sydney and *knows* her like they've been together for years. And Sydney!! Muahaha playing marriage counselor! I love how she tells them both off. Aww Jack. FAMILY VACATION! They're all so fake just like the original marriage, I love it. Fake family dynamics! "Anniversary gift" necklace! OMGOMGOMG KISSING!!!!!!! My mind is officially blown. *hyperventilates* I did NOT expect that. I mean, I hoped for a kiss but I didn't think it'd happen for a long time. Totally fake but not the underlying stuff beneath it. Have I mentioned I am totally emotionally in love with all of them? I love how Sydney's just like ummm...And Irina is totally enjoying this. Same room, same room...Oh god, the looks. OMG Irina is so good taking off her shirt...this is too much, man. In a very good way. Jack's looks, her smile, WOW. The baiting is so much fun!

I love them working together as the spy team SO MUCH. "We go at the same time" and "I'm not letting you out of my sight" *love* Hahaha I love them fighting and Sydney's "Shut up!". She has to be the grownup here lol. Aww Irina doesn't get a gun. Argh, stop interupting the SpyFamily! I don't care, damn it! Oh god, the looks between the three of them are the BEST. And nodding! It's all in the little things. Irina's free of the necklace, YAY! Gotta love trust. Or in this case, making it out of there. The THREE OF THEM SHOOTING TOGETHER!! How is this family so freaking awesome? Kudos to the director for this episode. Awwww Irina cares if Sydney's okay! Oh, Jack. "We need to start trusting each other" *squee* YES! I am so in love with their looks its not even funny. Awwww them walking together! So beautiful and sweet. They are such a family :D I love the music choice as well ("all that you can't leave behind" is perfect) which is always iffy where Alias is concerned for me personally.

The best thing about all of this is every CRUMB, every tiny reaction or word or action between them is hugely important and makes me gleeful. More than that is awe inspiring bouncing around love. How did this become better than shipping? I don't know! I just haven't felt this way since The Wire and The Office and it's amazing.

You know I've never been a big fan of trios in friendships or relationships and sometimes have a hard time with OT3s because of it. In my experience it's hard because one person is usually left out in some way or doesn't have as strong as a relationship as another two. But for a family, I think it works really well because of the different relationships from father-daughter, mother-daughter to father-mother, so that each can have a special place and there's no need for which one is better or stronger.

MY SHOW. It's been promoted to a my show because THIS episode is the way it's done. Top five favorite episode by far, if not my favorite.



THIS is the way TV is done. I keep getting lucky finding all the good shows in January! Last year, The Office and now Alias.

I have so much contained energy right now, I've got to get out of here and run around or something because that right there was crazy good. One hour left til the next one!

Yay! I'm glad I'm not the only one.

Can I read without being spoiled? Cause I am really paranoid and believe it's best to enjoy it without knowing what's going to happen as it takes the fun away. I want to read them though!

BEST. EPISODES. EVER. Oh, man. Alias may have sunk into an endless abyss of suckitude, never to escape, but the Passage eps will always be MIRACULOUS. Oh, love love love!

Hee, your posts lately are making me kind of sad that I don't have any Alias icons anymore!

[identity profile] anoel.livejournal.com 2008-01-22 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Eeee I love this one at least! And I'm sure I'll love the next. This was just MADE OF AWESOME. *scared of suckitude* We'll always have Paris The Passage!

Aww you should get one! You never know when you may need one of the SpyFam!

Your joy is giving me joy! I've missed my show so much. I remember absolutely dying during the week between these eps, and dancing during the theme music (which is still a ringtone on my phone, ha) and making weird noises of delight whenever Irina was on the screen.

Yay for joy! I don't know what I would have done if I had to wait a week, an hour already killed me. I get making weird noises of glee! They are all just too good to be true :D

BTW, you're going to fucking shit yourself when you get to "A Dark Turn." Still my most favorite episode EVER.

Oh god, I can't wait!! I can only imagine what could happen.

I SAW THE TRAIN SCENE!! Wow. So beautiful and amazing and I looove reminiscing moments. Drinking and toasters are love.

THE SPYFAM IS SOOOOO PRETTY. PARTICULARLY THE SPYRENTS.

SPYRENTS ARE MY OTP BECAUSE OF THIS TWO-PART EPISODE. ALKFJSODIFJWEKJFS.

They are! Pretty and smart and kick ass and awesome, they've got it all.

I can see why! I'm totally shipping them hardcore now. They should be together! So much capslock love.
