Anyone else think this week's episode was stupid? The one plot appears have been closed and another immediately opened. It would be okay if they were linked and somehow the Chinese were involved in the nuclear attacks, but I doubt that is the case. Instead, Chang coincidentally calls a minute after Jack kills Fayed?
The scene with Fayed's hanging was a bit over the top, almost comical.
No way, it was Jack at his best, killing how many 7-8? bad guys in a matter of 1-2 minutes?
"say hello to your brother Fayeed"
I knew Audrey was still alive, Chang has connections.
I forget, what happened to Jack's father?
Jack's father had the gun to his head and then disappeared, leaving behind the phone with Logan's number on it. No word on his father since.

Yeah, that sorta threw me. What a sharp turn so late in the season/
What did you think of Pres Palmer's ploy? Had me fooled.
yes, but the best bit was when Naoki kicked Alan in the head and then executed the entire state of Usitrea with a 246-UBX bomb. Then, Dr. Herbert injected a lethal dose of miforigil into Julius' neck, triggering the inevitable attack of the Arabs.
can't wait for next week's dose of fictional crap
I don't know, I thought the episode was going well until the very end. I like how they tricked fyed and i thought it was awesome how Palmer made the arab country threaten to kill the general's family, but I'm trying to figure out how all these events lead into the chinese having aubrey and why it involves jack. I mean, the preseident already payed "a heavy price" to get jack back, so what's the big deal.
I'm wondering if it still has something to do with his father. I don't think he's done just yet, and I think it still might have something to do with whatever Doyle did in Denver. So, i thought the episode was going well, till the chinese called. You can't just 180 the entire season, there has to be connections somewhere.
So far, I like the season, but I think it's far from the best, which I think was season 2.
I like 24 but this season is full of plagiarism:
Jack enlists the help of an autistic savant whose brother is exploiting said savant's talents - Rainman
Jack hitches a ride on the bottom of a truck - Cape Fear
Jack hangs the bad guy terrorist with a chain after seemingly getting his ass kicked - Diehard 1
Jack says to bad guy terrorist after dispatching him - "Say Hello to your brother" - was that the third Die Hard?
Others?
thanks for reminding me the show is fictional. I forget I can't watch it for factual foregin policy issues. OF COURSE IT IS FICTIONAL!! It is a TV show for entertainment, what do you expect?
Last night was great. My favorite moment was when Fayed THREW his gun at Jack after they both ran out of bullets! What did he think that would accomplish?!
I thought it was a pretty good episode. Lots of good Jack action. I'll bet the writers are working frantically at this very moment to figure out how to link the plots (especially if they're reading this thread).
It was good until the last 5 min.
Agreed the hanging was too over the top and to bring up old shite at the end wasn't good. I thought the whole day would be about getting the Nukes now its over.
24...pffft.
Battlestar Galactica returns in 2008!
Worst episode I've ever seen. They are going to spend the next 5-6 hours tracking down Audrey, who I'm sure isn't in China since that'd kill the season what with the plane travel. It was just too over the top for me.
I'm just happy that they found the nukes and killed Fayed. Now I can stop watching.
