1x22 Almost Thirty Years
Vaughn gives Sydney a buzz. He tries to make Sydney feel better about
Willage being kidnapped by Sark; he's probably far too good a person to be
thinking, "Hah! So much for the competition!" All it takes is one look into
her eyes to set off his Sydney lie detector. Oh, yeah, he knows her. Though
not as well as he'd like to, wink wink nudge nudge. Weiss yells at him
about his feelings for Sydney again, then gets in touch with his inner
narc. Will gets some unscheduled dental work. Damn that newspaper's crappy
health-care plan. Vaughn demonstrates his knowledge of all of
Sydney's secret places. Syd? Totally touched. And turned on. Because with
Vaughn, it's sweet and not at all stalky. Vaughn tells her he's in (not
even going there) ... if she needs him. Sydney screams, "Hell, yeah, I need
you, right here and right now, you gorgeous hunk of handler, you!" and
launches herself over the train-station benches into his lap. OK, so she
didn't really do that on the show, only in my head. But she does finally
remember her manners and say "thank you." (By the way, MV in this scene?
Kicked. Some. Serious. Acting. Ass.) Vaughn gives Syd another once-over in
front of Jack, who shares his respect for his future son-in-law. I loves me
some Jack, but dammit, why'd he have to be chaperoning and keeping Syd and
Vaughn from joining the Mile-High Club? You know it's a loooooooooong
flight from L.A. to Taipei with no in-flight movie. BadAss!Vaughn goes all
alpha male when some punk sniffs around his woman. Syd? Totally pleased.
And turned on. Sydney is surprised by how big it is and tells Vaughn so.
[Homer Simpson]Ohhhhhhhh. Matrix!Vaughn standing in the hall.[/Homer
Simpson] Syd is apparently Marion Jones, while Vaughn's Spike-coat creates
major wind resistance. Man, those Big Red Dodge Balls of Doom can hold way
more water than you'd think. Even when he's (not) drowning, Vaughn is
concerned about Sydney's safety. Sydney is so frantic to save him that it
requires quick-cut editing. Vaughn is the hottest-looking (not) drowning
person ever. BTW, Khasinau? Totally a Vulcan.
