Jules Asner: Jennifer Garner's character on Alias is always dashing off to exotic spots, but in actuality, she rarely leaves the soundstage.

Steve Kmetko: That's why a recent trip to Vegas was such a treat for Jennifer and for E!. Patrick Stinson (makes $cha ching$ money noise) cashes in....

(They show a scene in the casino of the director saying 'action' and the casino comes alive. Shows Jennifer walking through the room.
Patrick Stinson voice over: "It wasn't much of a gamble for Jennifer Garner when she took on the role of Agent Sydney Bristow in Alias. In the drama, she won the daily double - the Golden Globe Award, and great co-workers." (It shows Jen hugging a behind the scenes guy.)

Jennifer Garner: The great thing is, that we're doing this job that we love, but we love each other, ya know? We respect each other and love each other and that is just ... (she pauses and says very respectfully) ... unheard of.

Patrick Stinson voice over: Now Jennifer's hitting the jack pot in Las Vegas! (lt shows Jen behind the scenes in a big black overcoat joking around about kicking high in the skirt she's wearing, with the boom mike operator.)

Jen: The locations are usually so far flung, an it's impossible ... you can't go to Morocco and shoot one scene in Morocco, or to Spain and shoot one scene in Spain. But we can go to Vegas!

Carl Lumbly: (who's very well spoken BTW) When you come right down to it, to capture the spectacle that Las Vegas is, you can only really do that in Las Vegas.

(lt shows a scene of when Sydney sees Francie and Charlie as she's walking through wearing the dress. She says 'Oh my god.', and tries to turn her head. Dixon (looking like shaft with a beard) says 'Syd, what's wrong??')

Jen: We try to make the show as authentic as possible, with this ... I do most of the stunts, we try to make everything real. And anytime we can do something like this, we're gonna do it!
(lt shows a scene of Sydney running in the dress from like 3-4 bad guys, then kicking their asses by throwing a tray at them and basically being Sydney and kicking booty.)

Patrick Stinson voice over: Alias takes over Sin City, Sunday night at 9pm on ABC.
