10:00PM - 11:00PM ::boop beep boop beep::

Little Wayne Palmer is a crafty devil. But he should probably just go lay down. or get his next adrenaline fix. Furthermore, should Karen Hayes have been calling CTU with what's probably classified info about military strides--fake or not? Wayne's getting ballsy. Trying to set himself apart, i see. Too bad he's got great big fat tremors.

Ricky Shroeder is gonna pull some Denver shit on Fayed. Or is he? What the hell happened in Denver? I still want to know.

Who was driving the van? Boy-Kim? Quite the clever ruse they pulled. Nothing like the old switcheroo. Ricky gets a boo-boo and the girls get all concerned, huh? You could see on Milo's face that he wanted to put the sling back on just to remind everyone that he was shot today. Poor thing.

"I should have sent Samir" is TOTALLY a clue to Fayed that the general is lying! I betcha. Now Fayed is going to take down the fake extraction team.
See? I'm so smart. What a convenient tunnel that cuts all communication for the good guys. That Fayed is a slippery S.O.B. Do you think he knew that tunnell would stop all coms? He was probably on Mapquest all day yesterday for just such an occasion.

HAHAHAHAHA! Jack is riding under the garbage truck? Why doesn't he just hold on to the back like the pros do? Then he could make the call to CTU with 1 hand while he holds on with the other. And he wouldn't have those pesky hazards as he does with the under-carriage. Look out for the cam shaft, Jack! The axel! Um, yeah, I don't really know anything about cars.

LOVE that when Fayed figured out the gun was loaded with blanks, he threw the gun at Jack. Rock on. Holy crap, this is the least smooth fight I've ever seen. Can't shoot through a chain link fence, gun throwing, and then Jack BITES THE DUDE! I guess when you've gone on a 1-man killing spree, you're entitled to get a little sloppy toward the end. Now that they've secured the bombs, what on earth will they do for the rest of the day?

Wait for it......wait for it......

AAAAND, just when you think they've forgotten about not-proven-to-be-dead Audrey Raines, she proves not to be dead. Shocker. In addition, she's in LA as evidenced by the 310 area code. Jack definitely has time to go save her and be home in time for Letterman.

Things at which Jack Bauer is smooth:
- Beating the crap out of terrorists. Again. Practice makes perfect.

-Being a one-man surveillance team. Again. Although, this time he did follow it up with a turn at being a 1-man assault team to spice things up. He can do that. He's Jack.

"There's no/we don't have any time"s: 2
Ricky had one when arguing with Jack about transporting Fayed back to CTU.
Nadia rocked it when laying it down to a very jealous Milo.

"Damnit"s: 2!
Jack had 1 BIG one when he was under the garbage truck. I would have been swearing, too. well done.
Ricky came to play this week with 1 fun-time, "Damn, Jack." after the killing spree. He now knows how smooth Jack truly is.


***Alright, lovely readers--unfortunately for you (but fortunately for ME), I'm off the scene next week. Vegas, baby. You're just going to have to wait until my glorious and hopefully triumphant return. You'll get next week's post with the following week. Try not to think about it too much. You'll make it through.
