ok so i was grossly wrong in my previous post.

season 2 and season 4 are actually the only ones that ended on sydney-vaughn moments. which does not bode well for season 5, because season 3 carried on from the season 2 finale, obviously, and season 3 was rather unsuccessful. alias audiences essentially respond VERY negatively to anything that comes between the sydney and the vaughn.

anyway, to correct myself, season 1 did not actually end with sydney being horrified that vaughn was on the other side of a locked door, trapped in a lot of poisonous rambaldi water. it ended with sydney strapped into a chair and then irina walking into the room, and sydney whispering "Mom?"

Season 3 finale: after the death of evil lauren, and the s-v making out, sydney goes to wittenburg where she finds out some horrible things (which were never addressed, by the way, in fact in season 4 the writers pretended that the things she found out were entirely different) and then jack enters the room and tells sydney that she was never supposed to find all that out.

it occurs to me that i should rewatch the alias seasons, because i was reading a lit of unanswered alias questions on twoevilmonks.org, and i realised there's a lot of stuff i'd forgotten. i am a fallen alias dictionary. need to refresh my memory.

and yuck, i just crushed a small flying cockroach against the wall with a piece of paper and killed it. i'm glad it's dead, of course, and if i'd waited for someone else to come and do something abotu the cockroach it'd have disappeared and haunted me all night. but i'm getting disgustingly adept at crushing small icky flying things against the wall with pieces of paper. i wish there were no icky flying things in the world.

on that gross note, i end this here post.
