Bangkok--Sep 24--Total Quality PR (Thailand)
CIA agent Sydney Bristow returns with more undercover adventures as the spy with many disguises. After disappearing for two years without any memory of what transpired, Sydney’s return to the world she once knew turns out to be both enlightening and painful, as she realizes her memories hold secrets that many are willing to kill for.
Just as secret agent Sydney Bristow thought that she has successfully got rid of a great evil - the counter-government agency SD-6, avenged the death of her fianc? and put an end to SD-6 head Arvin Sloane’s obsessive search for Rambaldi, her life takes an even more confusing turn when her murdered best friend’s identity is taken over by a clone which tries to kill her.
Upon mysteriously waking up one morning in Hong Kong, Sydney finds out that she has been missing for two years, with no recollection of what had happened. Her father’s been imprisoned for trying to contact her traitorous mother, and the love of her life, her CIA handler Michael Vaughn, had presumed her dead and married another CIA agent, Lauren Reed.
As Sydney tries to work out what had happened to her, she is horrified to discover that she may have assassinated a Russian diplomat. Worse still, Lauren is in charge of investigating the murder and grows suspicious of Sydney by the day, and in an unexpected twist, her archenemy Sloane, the ex-head of SD-6, has defected to the CIA and is now considered an ally.
As Sydney deals with her conflicting feelings towards Lauren and Sloane, she and Michael must fight to keep their attraction for each other under control, even as she will soon learn that her memories contain pivotal information that various members of the intelligence world are interested in - and may kill for.
Nominated for 8 Emmy awards this year, Alias stars Golden Globe award winner Jennifer Garner (Daredevil, 13 Going on 30), Michael Vartan (Never Been Kissed, One Hour Photo), Victor Garber (Legally Blonde, Titanic) and Ron Rifkin (The Majestic, L.A. Confidential).
