Kim’s back, and trouble has follwed her, in the form of a deadly gas cloud that’s trapped them all in a glass box. And she’s driven off Chase and picked up the new pre-requisite Annoying Boyfriend[sup]TM[/sup].
Meanwhile, if Edgar hadn’t taken that detour to the Break Room to grab the last of the jelly donuts, he might have made it to the sealed-off Situation Room in time. Now Chloe is going to have to open sockets all by herself.
And the last we saw of the First Lady, she was playing Kiss-And-Make-Up with her dear hubby, the Prez. But is it for real? or was she luring him into a false sense of security before she rips out his throat with her teeth and runs off into the sunset with Aaron?
And Henderson is sealed in the medical suite… with Tony. That’s going to be the fun one to watch for tonight!
Hmmm, releasing ALL the remaining gas at one target. Wonder where that’s going to be? And when?
Tony, you could try to be a little more helpful. Wouldn’t it be more fun to help interrogate Henderson and inflict as much pain as you can, rather than just kill him outright? You need to start thinking more Jack-like…
Who plays the Vice President? I know I recognize him from somewhere.
And will they find a way to incorporate a Robocop reference before Peter Weller is gone? They managed to do an Allstate Insurance one last year, surely they can do another zinger this year.
Lynn’s guard didn’t seem to like Jack’s idea too much – understandably. But you know, if they’re going out into the contaminated areas anyways, wouldn’t it be a good idea to send Lynn into the computer room, and send the other guy running for wherever the nearest gas masks are stored? Unless they’re locked in the basement or something, then at least when they open the room, he could hold his breath and make a run for them.
Kim: “Every time I’m around you, something horrible happens. People die…”
Jack: “Well, you know, sweetheart. That’s your fault, actually. You’re a danger magnet. I’m so sorry I haven’t had more time to teach you how to hang around the right kind of people, how to be a better judge of people that you babysit for, how to disarm cougar traps and such. But saving the city over and over takes just so much of my time and energy, I hope you can understand that…”
A-HA! He played the president in the cut scenes for Command and Conquer: Red Alert! That’s why he’s so familiar, and why at one point I actually thought he was the prez.
So, what’s the next target going to be? From this ep, we know that Bierko was getting “building plans” (I think ventilation schematics, did he specifically mention?) – so it would have to be a building of some sort. Also, we know it’s a location with a bit of security around it – that seemed to be implied by the conversation with the woman on the cell phone, too.
As for buildings with lots of potential casualties, one thought was LAX at peak travel times? But besides basic security checks for people boarding planes, I wouldn’t think that to be a highly secure facility, especially for the main areas.
So, anybody know any huge-ass buildings in L.A. that would be likely targets? Worth using all the remaining cannisters on?
