1.18 Masquerade Dr. Barnett: "I think that someone so skilled at deception is in danger of deceiving himself." The Mom plot thickened, as Sydney slid off the hook and Mom took her place. We learned that Khasinau has a relationship with Mom -- he was her superior in the KGB. Jack is unraveling and drinking; he actually shocked me by showing emotion in that scene in the car in the rain. Jack must have loved Laura to be so upset, twenty years after her betrayal. Losing Laura almost destroyed him, which explains a lot about his character. It also shocked me that Sydney turned him in for counseling. And I thought it was fascinating and fun that Jack was trying to charm the shrink, as well as lie to her. "How would you define a normal family?" "I suppose it's one in which the family members aren't under orders to lie to each other." Will he have to keep on lying to her every week? So you run into an old boyfriend during an ultra secret double mission in Vienna. What do you do? What do you do? Noah Hicks (Peter Berg) is certainly cute and intriguing, but frankly, I didn't like him from the moment he very coolly cut into dead agent Wexler. Although you have to admire anyone who has the nerve to kid the scary interrogator, McCullough. On the home front, Will and Francie, who are acting more and more like a couple every episode, found a ticket for Italy, not Seattle. Sydney has some 'splaining to do. This week's cliffhanger was sex. That was new. Bits and pieces: -- The credits this week were at the very beginning, after the previously on. -- Why didn't the Russian computer have cyrillic letters? -- Whenever Sloane touches Sydney, it makes her cringe. And now she owes him one. This can't be good. -- This week's itinerary: Sunrise at Mount Whatever, Italy; Vienna; Arkhangelsk? Where's that? Russia? -- This week's hot look: The Eyes Wide Shut masks over evening clothes. Three out of four spies, Billie |
