24, the Fifth Day, at the 19th Hour
More bad guys showing up in this episode. I kind of don’t get it though. Why now?
- So Audrey did turn out to be okay. Unfortunately her father Heller was not. I wonder just how many plan Bs (or CDEFG for that matter) Henderson has prepared. Jack had Henderson captured but Henderson’s men in the chopper had been following Heller that if Henderson didn’t contact them in time Heller would be killed. Heller refused to become a hostage and drove his car into a lake. I suppose he’s dead, but somehow I have this feeling that he’s alive.
- It was funny how Chloe was bossing Buchanan around when she was trying to set things up to help Jack. “I hope you don’t mind I’m bossing you around…since I don’t work for you anymore!” Heh Heh Heh.
- So Aaron Pierce was indeed being dealt with by Logan. Did he really only has Aaron transferred? Although I would think even Logan couldn’t just order to have him arrested or killed for no reason.
- Who are these new guys who seems to be behind everything, and make Logan looked like a puppet and Henderson like a little field op? Let’s see, there’s Robert Romano…..errr (if you are an ER fan you know what I’m talking about…), I mean, that Graham dude and two other conspirers. Are these people some CEOs of the Big Oil that’s why they can crap on the President of the United States? (Well, Logan is a wuss to begin with…) I’m not sure, but isn’t it kind of late to introduce these guys as the true villains?
- Karen Hayes finally came to her senses and tipped Buchanan that CTU agents were coming to get Chloe. What took her so long? On the other hand, that Miles bastard couldn’t stop grinning with DHS finally absorbed CTU. I just can’t stand that guy. I really want to smack him in the face.
- Jack found out Henderson handed off the recording to another person and that guy was getting on a plane that seemed to belong to some diplomats. As usual, Jack just cruised through the checkpoint and got onto the plane easily. My gosh, that was some TIGHT security there! Were they trying to poke fun at the airport security (which should be better than a normal airport, with all that military presence and etc) or that there’s nothing Jack can’t do?
- I can’t help but think that at the end of all this, Graham and those guys won’t get caught. Their plan obviously will be foiled by Jack but they probably will just sit back and let Logan take the fall. On the other hand, I don’t believe the recording will be made public and let presidency collapse just like that. (Heller did have a point there.) Chances are, I think Logan will resign and leave just like what Heller wanted. As for Henderson, he is so dead, unless he is put in jail so he can be brought back next season, just like what they did with Nina Myers.
In the next episode, Jack seems to turn into a plane hijacker. Did they come up with this idea to coincide with that new 9/11 movie United 93? Okay, may be I’m just being a conspiracy theorist here, let’s see what happens next week…
