Alias

Even though Alias was given a proper send-off, there were still a few lingering questions that Kristin Veitch was kind enough to post in her weekly column on www.eonline.com (BTW a great source for scoops...just read her chats!).
These answers come from Jeff Pinkner, executive producer on the show:


Q: In the finale, did Irina say, "Rambaldi is alive," "Rambaldi is love" or Rambaldi "is life"?
A: "Rambaldi is life...Through him we can live forever."

Q: What was the horizon?
A: The horizon was the Rambaldi-designed glass sphere that activated the pedestal in his tomb and then received the liquid from the hovering red ball.

Q: Did Irina fall on the sphere? In the final shot, one hand was bent behind her back after she fell. Could she have squished the ball but then have been resurrected by it? It did take a while to work on Sloane.
A: No, the ball rolled away, presumably recovered by Syd, who would have had it destroyed.

Q: Given the actions of Nadia at the end of the show, was she truly just a figment of Sloane's imagination/conscience?
A: She was his conscience. I think killing Nadia--whom he deeply loved--caused some sort of emotional/psychotic rift for Sloane.

Q: Is Sloane going to live forever under a rock, or is he eventually going to die?
A: Sloane is immortal, living forever buried 200 feet beneath the earth.


So there ya have it. Hopefully Kristin will get some answers from JJ Abrams about the meaning of the highlighted letters throughout the 5 seasons and the meaning of the number 47.
