Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
You know what I think would be hot, on Alias?
Heh. TV Guide had a bit about what's coming up on Alias now that the end is in sight, and one of the creators/writers said there was potential for spin-offs, one of which could be Amy Acker, Sark, and Ron Rifkin as a triumverate of evil. I'd watch it, but somehow I don't think it would fly too well with ABC.
I enjoyed Alias pretty much (Spy Daddy was great - big surprise) but I was really pissed that they've brought Lena Olin back just to be a bad guy again - it makes last season's finale even more non-sensical than it was if that's what they are doing, and if they're not, I'm pissed at the misdirect.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Well, as long as the coworkers don't know what I was expecting, it shouldn't matter.
The only thought on the coworkers' minds is going to be "COOKIES!!!!"

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That was fun. And, I have learned a valuable lesson.

Of course, what I really want to see is what happens when someone gets sucked into the engine of a 747. Or maybe a 777, as they have bigger engines (over 100,000 lbs of thrust on some models).
Of course, pushing someone in front of a big jet engine (even a naughty person) might be considered unethical. So we need a corpse. And probably a couple million dollars to pay for a new engine....

Well, on Alias, Spy!Granma is definitely looking for something and acting like a villain. .. but perhaps it'll work out that she's not, you know?
How'd you like that cut between, I think Syd being tortured right to Spy!Granpa - for a nanosecond they made me think that he had kidnapped Sydney and was behind it all.

This sounds like a job for Buster, the crash test dummy on Mythbusters.
I mean, it would be his last job, but considering he's been rocketed, blown up while sitting on a toilet, bashed with exploding soda cans, and who knows what else, I think it would be a fitting retirement ceremony for him.

But Buster's not squooshy enough. You need something that's both going to fragment and send wet gobbets flying.
