A mixture of new news and rumor clarification, which is correct as of 9:00 a.m. RMT on 10/30/05.

Michael Vartan (aka Michael Vaughn) is currently signed to ONE episode, which was initially considered the 9th in order, but ABC is referring to as the 7th. No one knows which it is yet, but standard practice would be to go with ABC's reordering.

He has NOT signed (ie, officially committed) to do any further episodes as of 9 a.m. this morning per my direct source, who has proven himself in the Alias fandom as legit since season 3 (as have I, one hopes).

He will also be out of the country through early February shooting a movie, which means he obviously won't be available until coming back to the States (if he chooses to return to the show).

Spoiler :

This very week, David Anders is once again back on the Alias set--at least, that's what I'm hearing from a few trusty spies who've never steered me wrong before.
I'm also hearing that very soon, Alias' best baddie ever will be doing the horizontal hokeypokey with not one but two of the female characters on the show. And it might be a bit, um...revealing.

By now, I'm sure you've figured out the answer to the c--k tease at the beginning of the column. It is our beloved Sarkie who is currently being fitted for a "flesh-colored c--k sock." Why? Because, according to my sources, he'll be "showing a little ass."

(I'll pause for your visualization.) (I'll pause for you to recover consciousness.)

And if that weren't good enough news, how's this? Sources tell me he might be doing five episodes--or more!--this season. Not that I don't love the newbies (honestly, I do), but if you ask me, the best thing that could happen to Alias is to make Sark a regular staple once more. Oh yeah, and his c--k sock, too.
