Well, if Paul didn't knowingly have anything to do with the kidnapping and attack, then that torture by Jack was a bit over the top, and his new girlfriend isn't going to be happy about it. But then one would think that he wouldn't be so close-mouthed about it, and unwilling to answer Jack's questions. He sure acted like he had something to hide.

Spoilers, kids.
Really. Sorta. 1. Good to see Curtis kick ass. It's nice to know that CTU agents other than Jack can kick some ass. Have we seen anyone besides Jack snap a neck before? 2. I probably missed it in one of the other threads...but I didn't know that The Mummy was Marwan. Huh. That makes two actors who used to be bald going under cover as men with hair... -Joe |

"Oh, now that we're here, I just realized we forgot to ask CTU to send over a picture of what Marwan looks like."
Or maybe CTU didn't have a photo in any profile. It had better be that, because otherwise, that smacks of serious incompetence in preparing an action against him and that building. |

I liked Tony's interrogation bit, too. He's changed -- he's much more willing to use Jack-like measures. "I will make it my personal business to see that you never find out what happens to your son."
Driscoll's "grief" didn't seem quite genuine -- it wasn't enough. I would think that initial shock would bring on a bigger breakdown. |

Does anyone know when Ford is coming out with the special Jack Bauer Edition featuring pull out weapons containers?
What comes next in this season? I think they gave some idea when TerrorMom spoke of the "other cells". Too bad about Driscoll's daughter, I am sure we all saw that one coming. When is Chloe going to come back and bitchslap Edgar for stealing her thunder? |

I'd like to move we change Curtis's name to Black Bauer, because he kicked serious ass there. Yow!

I found myself confused by next week's preview. I know they need to find Marwan, but since they've already saved all the plants it seems less urgent than the kind of thing they need. Probably the other cells will be put into play now. What's going to happen in the next episode of As The President Flies? |

And if Paul truly didn't know anything, and was just being used to get close to the Hellers, you would think that he would be quick to help answer Jack's questions. Jack: "There's a building you own that the terrorists used to plan the kidnapping." Paul's reaction should have been: "What?! Are you sure? Well let's get on my laptop and figure out what the hell's going on!" instead of his actual reaction, which was, of course... "No, I'm not talking to you, you big wife-stealing poopyhead!" I think Little Heller still knows something -- they never did get the info out of him. Anybody else think he'll be back? I think he told somebody he trusted, like a girl or something. Somebody who was using him to find out the info. |

Rikwriter knows stuff.
And also, please everybody remember that the standard rule in the 24 threads has been to only discuss things from the aired episodes. Spoiler boxes should be used for advance info known about future shows, and this includes the "scenes for next week" -- since some folks flip the channel as soon as the clock ticks and don't watch next week's previews. Thanks. |

I'm feeling very dense: was there ANY point to including Maya in these scripts at all???

That whole Maya subplot was just lame. It should have wound up on the cutting room floor. It was not believable. Not just because of the acting, but the extreme nature of it and why her daughter wound up in CTU that day anyway. It just wasn't well written.
The rest of it, though, was really well done. I like how the plot led them to that location through several different threads of information. Someone did some good thinking there when they put the script together. |

I loved the look on Audrey's face when Jack tried to jump start Brit-boy's heart. And I fully expected Tony to drag the Beave into Terror Mom's cell and start torturing him in front of her. Quote:
I have to say, these guys at CTU celebrate way too early. OK, it's been 1/2 second since we THINK we've reversed the meltdown, let's all just stop and congratulate ourselves. I'm waiting for the Star Wars scene where Edgar advances thru a cheering crowd to get a Presidential Medal of Honor... Anyway, this was a pretty good episode, and I have to say I'm enjoying this season much more than last. |

Did anyone else get the feeling that Jack's girlfriend's feelings shifted back to her husband during the torture scene?

I got the feeling that Audrey was very uncomfortable with the idea of Jack torturing him. I didn't get the feeling that she wanted to get back together with him, though.
Of course, after what she saw, she might not be too thrilled with hooking up with Jack again, either. I think that's what the writers want us to think. |

Disclaimer: I really have nothing but sympathy for the mentally ill and would never feel anything but sorrow over the suicide of a real person.
That said--Wooohooohooo Maya is dead D-E-A-D dead wooohooo!!! In other news.... Curtis beats down 'Mr. Rains'. Curtis takes 'Mr. Rains's' phone. Curtis speed dials CTU. Also, is it just me or is there a definite tendency for CTU personnel to really torture the hell out of good guys by mistake while hardly saying boo to the bad guys? |

I'm amazed that Driscoll's daughter bled to death that quickly with all of those medical people around? Did she sever some important artery? Not that I want to try, but I think it's got to be hard to slash your wrists and die within 2-3 minutes.
And it didn't even look like the medical personnel were even trying to save her. It was more like "Well, she's dead. That's bad." |

When Jack and Curtis found the bad guy in the steno pool, why did he have to call Driscoll to get her to send in help? I thought they had like 95 zillion tactical teams waiting outside chomping at the bit. The minute the shit hits the fan they should have all rushed in and flooded the place.... instead, Jack has to wander around by his lonesome. And how the hell did the CTU agent get killed (the one that the baddie got the uniform from)? Was he all alone? I thought these guys used the buddy system.

Maybe the writers wanted to make sure we didn't think Driskoll was a Cylon agent. After all, a normal human being would show some kind of emotion once in awhile.

I kept wanting to hear:
Comic Book Guy: Turn to channel 11 Black Bauer: Dammit, we don't have time for the Simpson's. I agree Curtis (aka Black Bauer) kicked ass. The terror guys in that building aint gettin no virgins. Soon as the torture happened I said "Say bye-bye to girlfriend Jack." Sara needs lessons in pissed-off employee 101. She was tortured less that 90 minutes ago and yet at this rate she's going to win Employee of the Month. Back to the Universal remote of Doom. Keyboard lock?!!! Come the fuck on, you've been planning this shit for years, surely an engineer could have thought up something better, like I don't know, a freakin password. What's this daughter thing of which you guys speak, must be similar to that Chloe/baby thing everyone was hallucinating a season ago. Another example of the writers outsmrting themselves. I was thinking escape valve for Marianne when that didn't pan out I figured it would end lame. |

So you're telling me that the "clinic" at freakin' CTU headquarters--torture and interrogation central--can't do a better job of controlling and keeping watch over a hostile or uncooperative person than that? Like they wouldn't have straitjackets and padded restraints and several burly "orderlies" and all kinds of really heavy sedatives at a place like that.

I was expecting something like: "AAAAAUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH! Noooooooo! WhyyyY! WHYYYYYY!!!!!" It was more like: "Oh, no. This is kind of a drag." And yes, Sarah should be seriously more pissed off. You'd think she got tortured by the boss every day. "I just put in an 8 1/2 hour shift. Got tortured, zapped, yelled at, accused of treason. Think I'll put in some overtime before I leave. La la la la la la la. Whistle while you work..." |

Boss: "Edgar, do something!"
Edgar: "Okay, try control-alt-delete" Curtis: "Nothing" Edgar: "How about shift control-alt-delete?" Curtis: "Solitaire just came up." Edgar: "Okay, try putting the red jack on the black queen." Curtis: "WHO you calling a black queen?!" Edgar: "Just do it!" Curtis: "Okay, now it's beeping." Edgar: "Type your mother's maiden name." Curtis: "Okay, now the reactors are shutting down." Edgar: "Great!" Curtis: "Wait... wait! Now it's saying, 'Do you want to sign up for MSN?' " Edgar: "ABORT! ABORT!" Curits: "It's too late." Edgar: "Miss Driscoll, you'd better call the president..." |

I think Audrey is definitely reconsidering, having seen Jack's full badass side, probably something she's never had the opportunity to see. Paul was stupid anyway for not answering.
Another hour, a few more CTU strike team / security team deaths. Next season (if any) we should keep count. President still flying, still no mention of where he's coming from or going to. I guess at this point they probably are just staying up there to remain safe, as someone said a few weeks ago. But it would be nice if they at least made some mention of that, or said something about being able to land now that the meltdowns are stopped. I'm glad I'm not the only one bothered by it. Go Black Bauer. Just like Jack, thoroughly tortured and a few minutes later kicking ass. Even though it was totally unbelieveable, I was still at the edge of my seat when they were down to the last second with the meltdowns. The story might be bad, but they tell it really well. |

True dat what Trion said. Jack definitely has just a small amount of baggage. I think most women would be freaked out to see thier ex being tortured. That being said, you would hope that she would come to understand why Jack has to be so forceful in such situations. I think trusting someone he loved once got him in some trouble....
