So... here are my two endings for Alias:

Ending One
Carrie and Marshall have a fight, because Carrie gets tired of the crush Marshall has on Sydney. He goes out and uncharacteristically gets drunk.

Stumbling back into APO, he falls against the big Rambaldi thingumie that they've just managed to get away from Prophet Five, and sparks fly. When they clear, Marshall is gone...

...and appears back in the 16th century, where he gets completely disoriented as a result of travelling in time while drunk. He remembers bits and pieces of his life, and winds up becoming Milos Rambaldi.

Ending Two
More time travel, but different. The head of Prophet Five is a genius who wants to travel back in time to meet Rambaldi. And in fact, that's what Rambaldi's endgame is: a time machine.

Sydney figures out that this guy actually is Rambaldi, even if he doesn't realize it yet, and they lead a mission to stop him. In the middle of the worst of the fighting, Sydney and Rambaldi-to-be face each other. Sydney shoots him, and...

...we cut back to Sydney and Danny Hecht, from the pilot, living happily ever after, and the whole damned series never happened.

I can't decide which one I'd prefer.

neither! those both sound terrible. I might cry if either of those happened... I really hope there is no time travel involved.

So how would you end it? What would you like to see happen?

The thing with shows like alias is that for the ending to be good, it has to be something you never thought about, and would never think about, in a million years. Just like a good movie (and hopefully Lost!), I want to be completely blown away by the ending, and since I'm hoping that is going to happen, I don't think that any ideas I might have will even come close to the acutal ending.

Provided, my ideal ending would have a few more people die, Sloan NOT going back to good (which I'm slightly afraid they are going to do), both Sydney and Vaugn alive, maybe Irina saving the day... Basically, as long as I'm completely surprised, and it's not a cop-out ending, I will be happy. (and sorry for slamming time travel, I just really hope they don't throw that in randomly)

The perfect ending for me would take place at the end of Season 2. It would be Sydney waking up from a dream, and realizing that the last three seasons never happened.

No, that would suck, but you see what I'm getting at [Smile]
