1. Whoever gets teamed up with Jack.
I hope CTU has good life insurance for their agents' families.

3. Is someone supposed to die?
That Paul guy died last week... two deaths in as many days would be a bit much, I would think.

4. BTW, I found the entire medical scenario totally ludicrous.
They're supposed to have great facilities. Yet, the are so understaffed that they have to choose whether to let one guy die or the other... I mean, it does not make any sense...

7. Yeah... I decided this was the last season I'd watch.
I simply cannot suspend my disbelief anymore. They had what... five people in there? And they needed every single one just to stabilize a patient with a stinkin' gunshot wound? Sorry, no. They would've had the wife out immediately, as well, instead of letting her watch her on-again off-again husband die.

Also, that Audrey is driving me up a wall. She's supposedly a professional, yet last episode made how many times she was squealing "Jack? Jack?!" as he's rushing around? Please, lady!

11. Oh I KNOW! How about when Erin Driscoll's daughter
committed suicide? There were about forty medical professionals standing around looking at her bleed to death. Not that any of them were actually trying to help her, but where did all those doctors and nurses go?

And why is it on 24 that they only try to revive patients for about 1 minute before declaring them dead? We've been watching previous seasons on dvd lately and that's happened a number of times. On ER they'll work on a patient for who's been "down" for 30 minutes or more, but I guess that would take up too much of the hour on 24.

24 is totally absurd but I can't help it, I'm addicted.

5. I didn't hear anyone was going to die.
That doesn't mean it won't happen. I kinda wish Audrey would at least leave. She annoys the shit out of me. I mean, COME ON, she works for her dad, the freaking Secretary of Defense and she acts SO SHOCKED that sometimes people do extreme things in extreme situations. Give me a break. Yeah, Audrey, your boyfriend the top government agent has surely never had to use force before, I can see why you would be so surprised to see him do it. And way to put the life of your husband (the guy you were going to dump until about 4 hours ago) ahead of the lives of millions of Americans.

6. Ahahah. Right... I find the romance kinda cheesy...
And hard to believe... C'mon, with nukes about to explode, how can people think about love and screwed up relationships? I think it's not realistic...

8. I think she gets on everyone's nerves. She's awful.
Where the hell is the Secretary of Defense anyway?

:shrug:

12. I think he's involved.
I suspect that in these last episodes he's going to resurface and we'll find out he had something to do with today's events.

14. Then Audrey could focus her attention on being horrified about
her father and leave Jack alone. Can you tell I am so sick of her?

15. And who will be the torture victim du jour?
They usually get in one torture scene per show.

I wish they hadn't killed off the Arab mother with the smoky voice, she was the most interesting character. I hope there's a lot of scenes with Chloe and Edgar. We need the comic relief because the show is getting SO BAD.

16. Only one person died last week

17. The show is not bad
Every season has it's annoying side story that just won't go away. Last season I could not give a flying fuck about the president's wife and her drama, and this year it's Audrey. It's the same great show with a plots going on at the same time. Jack still rules, and there's lots of great action. However that being said, this episode tonight could be way out of whack with us possibly going to war with China :wtf:

19. LOL. That's true... Also, Isn't it weird that Jack leaves his cell on RING
even when he goes into the enemy's nest and being heard means getting killed? Haven't they come up with a better alert signal?

20. Oh I know, they could get perfect reception in
a mine shaft. It never takes time to connect either.

21. So, do we agree that the nuke won't go off?
I'm not entirely sure... If there were many I'd say one would go off. With only one, I think it won't go off...
