Twice on this show, and several times in Flatliners. I hope next year, the newly-undead Bauer will be in charge of a bunch of young vampires menacing a beach community. Then the next year, he can be a cowboy!
Favorite part:
HTB is holding Tony hostage with a gun to his head, and asks Jack (paraphrasing here):
“Do you really have what it takes to shoot me and kill him in the process?”
Pause…
“Yes”
Which bring to mind the question “Why the hell did Marwan have them aim the missle at the city he was in? Isn’t that f*cking stupid?”
He assumed all along that his plan was perfect (albeit overly-complex). He figured he’d land on his ship just in time to see the mushroom cloud.
One thing- I myself am sick of LA being the focal point of half the movies/shows out there, but of course they’re going to send the missile to LA. That’s where the characters on the show are! They’re not going to send the missile to Tampa and expect us to watch and/or give a crap about the CTU yahoos they got there.
Well, he had 10 whole minutes to get to his ship which was out of the zone of a nuclear blast. :rolleyes:
Now that Jack is a “free agent”, he could end up at any CTU office in the country. It would have been interesting to have the show set in New York. Nearly every episode would show Jack in Manhattan traffic.
Did you buy gas?
Damn, I knew I forgot something!
Murder isn’t a federal crime.
Can the President give pardons for state crimes?
Hell, why pick a city thousands of miles away, couldn’t he have targeted Chicago and not given CTU all that time to find the missile?
We actually can’t assume they didn’t know what Jack looks like - that one head Chinese dude sat there and talked to him face-to-face back at CTU a couple of hours ago. He seemed pretty knowledgeable about who Jack is, too.
Shoot his corpse in the face, hack off his fingers and then set it on fire. They’d by that, right?
I think the ploy was only meant to buy him time, CTU can’t possibly believe the Chinese would buy his death without a corpse. Then again they have agents that are stupid enough to uncover their face during covert missions, get caught and give up their supervisor’s names just by threatening them with torture. What a wuss. I bet he still gets sent to that Chinese work camp.
Here’s hoping that next season is Jack breaking into that Chinese prison just to beat the crap out of Agent Wuss.
Note to self: do NOT piss off Wile E.
smiles sweetly But he was already dead, he won’t feel it.
I bet they keep George Mason’s body around for emergencies just like this…
I’m with you here. Black Jack is way better, and Black Bauer always made me picture a bizzaro Jack Bauer that was pure evil, kinda like in the Superman and Spider-man comics…
No he can’t. Murder and attempted muder of a federal government official or presidential candidate is a federal crime and a state crime. Terror Babe could still be prosecuted in state court for her crimes.
I think Season 5 should have “Black Bauer”, Kiefer with a mustache and a goatee, his evil twin brother. And the finale should have some sort of KITT vs KARR reference.
How about a CHLOE vs KLOEY?
How exactly does one describe Evil Chloe? I mean, the tight leather outfit and whip are a given, but what about her personality?
