<gurgle> am now imagining him 1. hugging Blake on the flight deck (Duel) 2. in those thigh length boots (Shadow ... no sorry, much as I love him, it *ain't* the same) 3. *with Vila* at Freedom City (oh glee oh joy oh my goodness ...) 4. trying to get through the 'wade in blood' speech without getting tangled up in the middle (Star One) 5. snogging Servalan (Aftermath) 6. being all cool and clever and unyielding in Sarcophagus (this takes a *lot* of imagination) 7. in all that 4th season black leather and studs <chortle> 8. getting all tied by by Cancer (Assassin) 9. and I have *no idea* how Orbit would end ... yes I have. Vilakins would get the gun first and throw Jarriere out :-)

OTOH, if he survived to 'Blake', it would definitely enhance Fearless Leader's chances of survival, because I can see Jarriere getting too befuddled to shoot in that last scene.
