Shit! RikWriter and AndyPolley! Sorry, Andy.
Can you get a signal back from a cell phone by only letting it ring?
Could the other two points of the traingle know which phone it is?
Obviously, but it has to ring 4 times. Now you know; when planning a terrorist attack and using a cellphone, always pick it up by the third ring.
According to tivo, Aussie husband is working with the terrorists.
The stand-out moment for me was when Terrordad told Terrorsister-in-law, “You disgust me.” I mean, this guy is looking for his wife and son SO HE CAN KILL THEM but SIL’s adultery - *that’s * disgusting. Why didn’t he just stone her?
Yeah, Driscoll remarked something along the lines of “how will it look when they find out you were involved seriously with a terrorist spy”. A hot terrorist spy, sure, but still…
He doesn’t have the stones.
I had trouble swallowing the Driscoll/Curtis thing, too. Sure he didn’t know Marianne was a spy, but he didn’t have reason to. He was suspicious of her and broke off their relationship. Driscoll, on the other hand, brought her in even though Curtis warned her, and it’s her job not to let crap like this happen. She made the call to hire her and I think she’d be the one to swing for it. Curtis might get some lesser punishment, but he wouldn’t be in as much trouble.
What the heck did Tony have going on in his unemployed day that he had to think about going with Jack?
- Not being shot at
- Bangin his girlfriend (though that might be doubtful at this point)
- Getting ripped and watching TV
When you distill it down like this I’m practically ready to quit my job right now!
Only if your girlfriend looks like Tony’s.
Marley23, Madelyn…I mean Driscoll won’t go down alone. She’s definitely a scorched earth type.
I’m upset that they didn’t address the previous episode’s erroneous torture (or if they did, only in a very small way).
Driscoll: Oops sorry, we saved your workstation.
Driscoll: Look we got you a new ergonomically designed keyboard that you can work with your gnarled fingers. And it also helps out with those uncontrollable twitches you’ll have for the rest of your life.
ABsolutely. That was the most hilarious line in the entire hour!!! Thanks for reminding me.
I bet they could have a lot of fun with Sarah once she drags her broken body back to her workstation:
Driscoll: Hey, Sarah, did you see this story in the paper about TORTURE reform? Oops … I meant TORT reform. My bad!
Curtis: Sarah, I need some work done on my car’s suspension. Who do you use for SHOCK work?
Edgar (on the phone): Tharah, bring me thothe reporth when you’re in my NECK of the woodth.
Jack (speaking in an intense undertone): Sarah, I need my dry cleaning picked up. Do it, or I’ll get that guy back in here to torture you again.
(Ever notice that Jack doesn’t have much imagination?)
No… if he was flying from Sydney to L.A., he’d already be crash-landed and trying to get his shit back from Sawyer by now… 
Absolutely – that was a great line!
I almost forgot to mention.
I could be mistaken, but I think last night’s episode was a landmark moment in “24 Cell Phone History”.
It’s the first time that I recall seeing somebody actually not having a perfect cell phone signal. Jack, leaving the hotel room, talking to Driscoll on the cell, and he says, “Hang on, Erin, I can barely hear you”. Then the signal clears up when he gets outside. :eek:
Before, the cell phones have always worked perfectly even in the middle of the desert.
They got Mulder and Scully’s leftovers.
Yeah, that was interesting. I thought something was going to happen, but it turned out he was just going outside for the signal. What a concept.
There was a little moment in this episode that I really liked: Jack washing his face and looking at himself in the mirror before talking to TerrorMom. He was making her wait before questioning, which made sense, but it was also just kind of a nice character moment. Jack having a second to himself, not driving anywhere or being shot at or even yelling at anyone. And we saw the Salazar tattoo, which was another reminder of how much he’s given on the job. That and Tony going along with Jack in this episode are among my favorite 24 moments in two seasons of watching, up there (though not ahead) with Jack shooting Nina.
YES! I definitely noticed that!
So who else thought Jack was getting ready to shove a wet towel down Dina’s throat when he went to wash his face?
