24: Season 4: Episode 6 (1:00pm - 2:00pm)

SPOILERS AHEAD!

Would anyone be too terribly upset if I didn’t bother with the links to previous episodes?

I was watching _The Day After Tomorrow_ yesterday and I kept yelling at the screen, “Why are you trusting that guy?! He’s a terrorist! He tried to have his son killed for God’s sake! Who let him into the US government?!”

Thanks, MKL, I forgot to watch last week, and was looking for this thread for a link to find out what happened last week. Although, if someone wanted to sum it up briefly here, I wouldn’t mind.

I have, I think, fixed the title… this is episode 7, not 6, they tell me.

It’s bad enough that TerrorDad wants to nuke my country AND kill his own son, but now he’s a spouse abuser.

He is so not getting any virgins.

Anyways, three hours before the first meltdown, eh? I think this year’s body count is going to surpass last year’s.

Uh, yeah, I have to be careful not to mess up the pre-compiled headers, and then I’ll just reverse the polarity on the hoobajabit couplings and that will turn the deflector dish into a big universal remote…

I liked Edgar’s nervous bit, though. “Look at me, my hands are shaking. I feel nautious…”

Am I going crazy or did previous series use a 24 hour clock system? I was really surprised to see the time as 01:xx during the show.

Jack: Tony! I need your help! Where are you?  
Tony: Starbucks outside some security place in Burbank, polishing my gun. What’s up?

Weird episode. Things just felt off. From the Separated Husband’s “You’re breaking my heart” hissy fit to the oh, so romantic finger wrestling in the car.
