I'll bet that if any of the damn Alias writers had a PS2, they'd come up with something that made a little bit more sense. Or they'd never write again because they'd be too interested in renting ICO from Blockbuster.
Anyway, back to the "plot." And yes, I do use the term loosely. Spy Daddy goes on to say that Syd can only access the security system with Sloane's voice ID and fingerprints. Just then, Syd's buzzer goes off. It's Captain Non-Courageous. Spy Daddy says something about Khasinau knowing about the safe house where Willage was being held, which means that there's still a CIA mole in operation. Therefore, coming clean to Vaughn about what she and Spy Daddy might be up to wouldn't be terribly prudent.
Subbasement Of Dreams And Desires. Syd is leaning her forehead into her hand, looking for all the world like she's trying to manufacture a thesis by sunrise. Agent Amorous is telling Syd how sorry he is about the Willage situation. He goes on to put our minds at rest about the security team that was watching Willage, saying that they were all shot with tranquilizers instead of killed, meaning that the attackers weren't out for blood. Way to minimize the body count, J.J. Agent Apathy goes on to say that if it's a kidnapping, the kidnappers will contact them. Syd's just really scared for Will. We're scared for him too. We're scared that we're never going to see another shot of Willage in his Joe Boxers. Come away from the light, Willage! Come away!
"You'll contact me if you hear anything?" says Syd, looking directly at Vaughn. He looks up at her and there is, I'm not kidding, a forehead wrinkle count of approximately NINETEEN. Trust me. I paused the damn tape. And the forehead wrinkles in the center? They form DEVIL HORNS. Vaughn is the devil. Vaughn is SATAN. Yes, I'm on Sudafed Severe Cold Formula. Yes, I'm thinking I'm Tank from The Matrix right now and I can actually load a jujitsu program onto my computer and kick Laurence Fishburne's ASS. That doesn't negate the fact that Vaughn's forehead has devil horns on it. It doesn't.
