Yeah, but instead of dealing with Sun's dad (who welcomed Jin a little too much into the family) he's dealing Sydney Bristow's, corporate edition.
HA. Frank, that's exactly who I thought of. In fact, as I was watching that scene, I thought, this reminds me of something and I can't remember what it is. Oh yeah! The
Alias
pilot!
I had forgotten that Danny called up Jack to ask for Sydney's hand in marriage. (So, you guys are right.)
Plus Spydaddy basically gave Vaughn the same "you'll NEVER be worthy; who do you think you are?" speech, though he later recanted on it. For Sydney's sake.
God bless Jack Bristow
And now I suddenly want the intense-off x-over that would be Jack Bauer going up agaist Jack Bristow. Oh well, if I ever control the universe...
They are in rival agencies.

Just to be on topic, we should let Jack Shepard have a shot too, but in that crowd I'm not sure he'd make it to the finals.
(And if we were in Boxed Set, Jack Carter could play! So many Jacks!)
Jack Shepherd could sew up the wounded Jacks at the end. Jack Carter would be keeping the peace. Jack McCoy would then prosecute . . . somebody.
And Jack O'Neill would make a wry remark about it.
Victor Garber was on NPR a couple days ago and that scene was the one from Alias that they played. (also him singing Johanna, which awesome)
My first exposure to Victor Garber was as a liberal Catholic who saw the movie of GODSPELL (the Catholic's preferred hippie Jesus movie over JCSS) too many times. I've never been quite able to get over that impression, though he's done an excellent job in every role I've seen him in subsequently; I just can't block the image of him with that William Katt curly blonde do.
