5:00pm - 6:00pm ::boop beep boop beep::

To review: Jack and Pruney got arrested because Billy Walsh is trying to save his own heiney. Diner girl is so dead. First daughter doesn't give a crap about her mom, but just the mention of her pops and Aaron Peirce's shining beacon of hope and light makes her follow him anywhere.

Aww. Crazy Erica is in on Billy Walsh's half-baked treasony plan. AND apparently, he didn't want her to have "one of her meltdowns." Why would you get in cahoots with someone with a known case of the crazies, I ask you? Stupid, Billy Walsh. That was a tactical error. He'd never make it in CTU.

Oh, Pruney. You have broken your promises to so many people today. No one believes anything you say anymore. You're now the Pruney who cried wolf. You've also now turned Diner Girl into a mini super-spy. She thinks she can be a stunt driver from the back seat. Don't you know that only Jack Bauer can give his word? I told you Diner Girl was dead. Way to kill your witnesses, Pruney. Jerk. Next time you pull a gun on Jack he WILL kill you. Fair warning.

"You are needed in the Oval Office." "YOU are needed to shut your trap.I'm the President, biatch!" Again, I should totally write this show.

Dubaku is the worst dier ever. His only saving grace is that he keeps his lists of baddies in his intestines. Billy Walsh is an eavesdropper and Erica Crazy-pants has her long-predicted meltdown. Billy Walsh is a slimy self-saver, but he makes this shit interesting. Oh, Erica Crazy-pants, he's never going to leave his wife, and he's probably going to kill you. If only you weren't so crazy.

"It's got an auto-erase function. We've only got one download." OF COURSE you do. Lets make sure all things are set up for real and immediate failure. Is Crazy-pants in the Mainframe room at Terminal 4? If so, she's a goner. No good can come of working at Terminal 4. Told ya. Now you're crazy and dead. Office affair rule of thumb....he's never going to leave his wife and he'll probably kill you at Terminal 4. Garofs is going to out their affair, though. She knows about their sordid business.

L-Mo is a dumb fuck. That is all.

"I'd like to speak with my attorney." said Billy Walsh. That shit would get you NO WHERE fast at CTU. The FBI is for wimps.

See? Pruney can't even handle collateral damage. Diner Girl was slightly smarter than Crazy-pants, so for that, I give her credit, but come on. Jack must be going soft. The Jack I know and love wouldn't take that kind of face-slapping from Pruney. She's cruising for a Bauer bruising.

Bill Buchanan is the shit. I hope he can get Tony off the hook a little, too. Especially because, as Tony puts it, "This ain't over yet," Can't save the day in 10 hours. We clearly need another bad guy to stretch this day out so that it can be saved in precisely 24 hours. Obviously.

SPOILER ALERT: Candyman is going to attack the White House. He still scares me.

Damnits:
-Big one by Crazy-pants. Her list-crashing is not going to plan. Cue the meltdown. I don't buy her as smart. At all. It's a good thing she won't live through the day.

There's no\we don't have times:
-Paramedic. "Sir, we don't have time." Jack doesn't need to hear that shit and now has the contact list that was hiding in Dubaku's guts.
-Jack to Tony--"...he'll start running. You don't have a lot of time." Close enough. DRINK!!!

Things at which Jack Bauer is smooth:
-Conspicuous tailing. No need for safe distances or safe driving for the matter. Jack will always get his man.
-Spontaneous surgical extractions of bad-guy lists. 'Nuff said.
