And, she looks good topless, as can be seen in [Rapa Nui](http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0110944/) if you’re into that kind of thing. Meanwhile, WAAAAAAAAAAALLLLT looks kinda puffy in the face. He probably wouldn’t look so good topless. -Joe ---

Wooohoooo!!! Storming the president’s office and laying the smack-down on Walt right in front of the Prez. Sweeet! Three cheers for Aaron, too! Logan is still a Major-Grade Wuss. ---

Now THAT is some old school Jack Bauer. And while I now understand the waaaaalt thing, that doesn’t mean I have to like it. I think it’s because you are all hearing it in your heads as someone screaming “WWAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLT” at the top of their lungs, or something. In my head, I read it as someone with a really nasaly voice going, “but _WaaaaAAAAaaaallllt_” ---

Oh, and I noticed that Logan pretty much has no backbone of his own. He just goes along with whoever yels the loudest. First it was Novak, then Palmer, then Walt, now Jack. ---

Good job, WAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLTTT! I thought for sure those terrorists were going to be all honest and stuff. “If everything goes according to plan I win! Wheeee! What do you mean not everything went according to plan? Oh nooooooo! I never thought that might happen!” So, who thinks that SpinCityMILF and Derek are dead real soon? -Joe, bored outta his skill ---

Buchanon is the MAN, isn’t he? Ignore the order… Hell yeah! And make Samwise see the light! At least Logan is going to let Jack do whatever to get the nerve gas back. He still is a spineless loser, though. Though now we know how they keep it in LA… after all, we know that terrorists have an unnatural attraction to the place. ---

So Walt’s whole ingenious plan relied on his one inside guy? A guy who, apparently, couldn’t sneak his way into an empty forest without being detected? And he never considered that if his plan failed, the terrorists that he’s trying to take out would be… IN POSSESSION of a chemical weapon, and could use it wherever they damn well pleased? So who is President Logan’s Secretary of Defense? Wile E. Coyote? ---
