Alias (Thursdays, 8:00 - 9:00 p.m., ET)
The electrifying Emmy Award winning spy drama, "Alias," returns for an
emotionally gripping fifth season. Jennifer Garner stars in her Golden Globe
Award-winning role as CIA agent Sydney Bristow in this non-stop thrill ride
through espionage, adventure and heart-wrenching drama.
After Sydney accepted an assignment to be a member of a new black ops
sector of the CIA, known as APO, she was shocked to discover that Sloane
was heading up the unit. Without an ounce of trust for her nemesis, Sydney
kept a watchful eye on him, as did Vaughn, Dixon and Marshall. But she had
to keep her suspicions in tow while working with her half-sister and Sloane's
daughter, Nadia, in order not to alienate her and lose her trust. But Sydney
was hard-pressed to define the enigma that is Sloane when he shot his own
daughter in order to save Sydney's life while thwarting the devastating
effects of the Rambaldi endgame. Meanwhile, Jack's near-death experience
and the truth behind why he had wrongly believed he killed his ex-wife and
Sydney's mother, Irina Derevko, strengthened the bond between father and
daughter; and fiancŽ Vaughn's revelation that he may not be the man she
thought he was caught her completely off guard, and a horrendous car
accident left their fates in limbo.
Even more gripping and emotional events are in store for Sydney. After they
both survive the crash, she learns that the man she has known as Michael
Vaughn is under investigation and suspected of being a double agent. She
questions whether their business and personal relationship over the years
had all been a lie. But when Sydney discovers that she is pregnant with
Vaughn's baby - and Vaughn is ruthlessly gunned down and murdered --
she is determined to uncover the truth about him. Meanwhile, because of
Jack's past betrayal by Irina, he begins to worry that his daughter may suffer
the same fate as he did. He will also have to deal with the fact that he will
soon become a grandfather - while still learning how to be a dad. Sloane will
also have to do some soul-searching as he makes an unholy alliance in his
desperate fight to find a cure for Nadia - who is still in a coma.
New agents will be introduced and a nefarious organization will come to light
in Sydney's life as she fights to protect her unborn child - all the while
traveling incognito, outsmarting the bad guys and keeping the world safe.

Bristow, Ron Rifkin as Arvin Sloane, Carl Lumbly as Marcus Dixon, Kevin
