Episode Report Card Erin: B- | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT One Potato, Two Potato, Three Potato, Four

Syd leaves Will and exits the restaurant. Okay, her shoulders are actually FRIGHTENING. I've dated guys with smaller shoulders than this. No, Viggo. I'm not talking about you. Is Georgie coming or not? He is? Well, tell Julio to get the whirlpool ready, then. Mommy needs some jet-powered action.
Spy Daddy informs Syd that her plane leaves for Budapest in an hour, and when she reaches the Triad's testing facility, she'll log onto their computer; Sloane expects her to disable the firewall so that SD-6 can directly download the specs for the next-gen weapons. "Once you access the computer, you'll contact the CIA and give us the IP address," he says. "We'll download the specs." He pulls a card out of his wallet and hands it to Syd, instructing her to memorize it. It's the IP address that she'll give to Dixon in place of the real one. Dixon will think he's accessing the Triad's computer, but he'll actually be on a CIA server. "We've set up some dummy files for him to download," finishes Spy Daddy. Oh, Lord. Who gives a shit? Get on with it.
He then moves on to the real reason he's there. Washington has made a decision regarding Mama Hari. "What she did to you invalidated her agreement with the CIA. The government is pressing charges. They're going to seek the death penalty." Syd looks neither surprised nor happy about this announcement.
Flying high over Hell-Lay. Down in Ops, Vaughn's moving toward the water cooler or something. Okay, whatever happened to the CIA offices? I mean, when Mama Hari got her ass hauled in, the action switched to the Ops center, which admittedly is MUCH cooler than the everyday CIA offices, but, like, now that Mama Hari's gone, shouldn't the action move back to the offices? Like, this makes no sense. Oh. Wait. This is Alias, not Masterpiece Theatre.
Right, so Vaughn's over in some random corner when some really hot guy walks up and says, "Hey, daddy!" Vaughn turns and gets this adorable grin on his face. Vaughn asks Hey Daddy -- whose actual name is "Craig," but I like "Hey Daddy" better -- what he's doing here in L.A. as they shake hands. Turns out Hey Daddy's in town 'cuz Madagascar Customs picked up a U.S. national transporting explosives, and Hey Daddy's babysitting him until they get him to New York. Hey Daddy asks about Agent Sean. Vaughn's all, he was seriously hurt, but he's gonna be okay -- which is more than I can say for the nursing staff! Ha ha! Oh ho! My sides!
They exchange more humorless banter, until finally Vaughn has to make his exit. Hey Daddy lets him go with a promise to play ball the next time he's in town. "What, do you think you're ready for this?" Vaughn challenges. "That's cute," says Hey Daddy, obviously able to kick Vaughn's ass in any sport other than hockey. They part ways, but Vaughn suddenly has a thought, which, considering he has a tough time thinking while he walks, makes him stop in his tracks.
