So, of course, Moronen/Syd gets into Oops Center and starts leaving little bombs -- erm, "phones" -- in strategic places around the office. She drops one final phone onto the in tray on her desk and stalks off. Marshall passes, saying "hi," but Moronen/Syd doesn't respond because voice-disguising vocal chord chips are way out of the realm of reality, much as incredibly life-like facial masks are. This show involves some hilariously whacked-out technology, I know, but borrowing the masks from Mission: Impossible for the season finale? Weak, dudes. Weak.
Dixon's Office Of Let's Waste Some More of the Viewers' Precious Time. Marshall enters and, for those of us in the cheap seats, reminds everyone that he's working on a way to figure out the location of the Rambaldi thingy they were all discussing at the end of the last episode. Marshall suggests that perhaps Rambaldi was treating himself to the occasional dip in the wacky weed, because the algorithms that Marshall's trying to decipher are some seriously weird shit, dudes. Dixon is not amused. Neither am I, really, but I'll always have a soft spot for Marshall. Dix informs Marshall that what they're looking for at the location would appear to be Rambaldi himself, which would be weird, considering he's dead. Or actually Jack Bristow. I'm just guessing here. There's more blathering from Marshall and somehow it comes out that he'll have the problem solved in eight hours, and then Marshall finally gets the hint that Dix doesn't want him around, and leaves.
Meanwhile, Moronen/Syd makes it into the room where Marshall's solving the location problem, and she parks it and informs someone over comm that she's patching into the feed. She does this in her own voice, by the way, which is really odd considering that it's coming out of Syd's mouth. And Syd's teeth are nowhere NEAR as protruded as they need to be in order to make Moronen's voice coming out of Syd's mouth make ANY sense. So, yeah, whatever; Sark's the one Moronen's talking to, and he's out in his car, harboring masturbatory fantasies about Moronen in her Syd disguise. Can anyone else out there see his right hand? All hands on deck, Sarkie. I have no interest in seeing you get familiar with Lil Sarkie, okay?
