10:00pm - 11:00pm ::boop beep boop beep::

Cheng is back to the torture and killing. He's starting WW III and is coming for Jack. Boudreau survived the raid on the Russian embassy. Audrey is sitting at gunpoint and barely holding her shit together. Bets as to whether she'll end up catatonic again?

Ooooohhhhh, Boudreau finally states the obvious, but Jack can't handle the truth. There's no room for love in the life of a renegade outlaw. Just ask Lorenzo Lamas.

Chloe with the Dragon Tattoo is all kinds of banged up but lives to spy another day. Looks like, once again, we're getting the band back together. Anyone else love how the couple that stops for Chloe, then just leaves her on the side of the road, accepting that she's just fine even though she looks like she's gotten the shit kicked out of her? Stoic, those Brits.

"He's got Audrey pinned down by a sniper." Audrey's pinned down! DRINK!! 

Kate's a clever little minx, isn't she? I swear, if she turns out to be a Nina, I'm gonna be so pissed. Lets just hope there isn't a backup sniper somewhere.

Ok, so Chloe 'taps into a satellite' to resolve her infrared issues? But it's raining! My damn DirecTV dish goes to shit when it rains. I call bullshit. Looks less like infrafed and more like Chloe is playing The Simms: Russian War Ship.

Ritter has zero control of the CIA. ZERO.

Oh, man. The Jersey Boy is going to have to break it to Heller that Audrey didn't make it after all. Kate got to break the news to Jack. Will he fall apart, or will he go Rambo and kill EVERYONE? Go Rambo, Jack! GO RAMBO!

Aaaaaand there it is. Guns? Butcher knives? He doesn't give a fuck. Jack Bauer has no fucks to give.

Imminent war is thwarted? Now, he'll samurai Cheng's head off.  
"Cheng is alive and in our custody." Sort of. Pieces of him are in US custody.

Well, now who the damn hell has Chloe? The Russians? WTF?! She's always getting stolen or something. Good god, Chloe. You've been doing this spy stuff for a million years. BE MORE BADASS!

Um....anyone else find it pretty messed up that they had Audrey declared dead and in a coffin ready to board Air Force One within 15 minutes? Because that's what 24 would have us believe. 
Dude--and Heller's face when he's talking about her? Creepy shit.

Jack and his sidekick Belcheck are still standing at the end of the day. And so is Chloe against all possible odds. Kate walks away from the job.

And once again, Jack is in the hands of the Russians. Setup for the next day? We can only hope.


Damnits:
None?? None for the last hour? Let's pretend there were 4. Bottoms up!

There's no/we don't have times:
We actually *didn't* have time left and still no one referenced it? Hmmm. I'm just gonna drink anyway.

Things at which Jack Bauer is smooth:
-Finding secret cell phones in drawers with a false bottom.
-Synchronized guard-take-out shots with his spy buddy.


Thanks for playing another day, folks! Let's do it again sometime.
