Henderson outsmarts Jack yet again, damn that guy is god at what he does. I think they're making a good point of showng that Jacks weaker than Henderson mentally, he's not willing to go as far and to sacrifice as much, Henderson was willing to ascrifice his wife, Jack wasn't willing to sacrifice Audrey. This rivalry is a very good one, I actually don't want Henderson to end up dead, beaten possible, but not dead, I think a character like his could easilly show up in another season and kick Jack's arse again.
 
Henderson is one sadistic bastard. He's probably going to die, though. Jack Bauer will strangle him with a piece of dental floss.
 
Yeah he more than likely won't be alive at the end of the season, but I think he could play into an extended stoyline spanning more than season 5, he's a cmplete badass though and I'd hate his death to be anti-climatic, whenever he goes I want it to be in a real in your face edge of your seat scene/s. Maybe Henderson will find out something that in his eye's make him a bad guy and will let Jack kill him, since he's so far been beter than Jack in every way that might be the most believable end, there would have to be a good showdown and fight first, then maybe Jack say's something and it makes something click with Henreson showing him he's been wrong and then he deliberatel slips up like he pauses or something, giving Jack chance to shoot him or something. Maybe he will sacrfice himself to protect something still thinking he's doing a greater good, he thinks he's a true patriot. Theres so many way's Henderson's character can go, it's great.
 
Henderson will be sniped by the quirky looking girl from the office
 
Turns out that Chloe had Special Forces training all along :lol:
 
Robocop has been extremely great this season! He is doing a truly good job playing a villian. He is very evil. So far, he has managed to stay one step ahead of Jack at every turn, even when Jack plans ahead. Good stuff! 👍

Even though Jack told Agent Pierce about the President, Pierce was doing a good job catching on that something was wrong within the presidency. He has also done a good job keeping Logan's wife out of the picture for the time being, though it is easy to see that she is starting to see things aren't exactly right.

Mike Novick was especially good in this episode figuring out everything going on or being very close to figuring it all out. 👍
 
I was kind of surprised when Jack handed over the recording. Jack, you’re turning soft on us, man.

It seems Aaron is MIA, I hope he’s OK. He’s only one of four characters to appear in ALL 5 seasons of the show (the other three being Jack, Palmer, and Tony) and is a complete badass, I’d hate to see him go, too.

Anyone else noticed the wacky/stupid techno music that’s being played on the show lately? I think it was played this week when Chloe got to Bill’s house.

By the way, if Jack ever tells you “If you and I are going to get through this alive, we need to work together” or “I need your help” you’re pretty much ****ed. 👎
 
If the government would quit trying to arrest him for insubordination, Jack could solve the case in 4 hours. When will they learn?
 
The guy playing the secretary of state, ( the underboss that got wacked in PayBack ) is playing a great roll ! I loved seeing him work his magic.

He's great, he had a much bigger role last season. But he seriously screwed up this week, though.

I have to admit, that throat shot was pretty cool.
 
Aaron should be okay, even though he is MIA at the moment. He is doing some behind the scenes work on gathering intel or something. Not anything that would get him into trouble, at least thats the feeling I got.

The Secretary of State really messed up in this episode. What the heck was he thinking going against what Jack Bauer said? Definitely not smart!

The constant wanting to arrest Jack and not wanting to arrest Jack is definitely throwing off some of his mojo, not too mention the constant up and down roller coaster of having support and not having support. So I wouldn't say he is going soft completely, though I do agree he is going a touch soft.
 
And he decided to leave his phone on the lawn, did he.

Heller's idea of getting Logan to step down quietly would have been the better option, and worked, had the evidence een saved. If I was Heller, the first thing I'd have done is have the recording duplicated a few times, then contaced Logan.

Jack's alway's had a soft spot though, he'd do anything to protect Kim, we know that, he'll put certain people firt, he is only human, that's his achilles heel.
 
Aaron may have left his phone on the lawn to get the President Logan's wife off his back for the time being, though something could have happened to him too. There really wasn't a whole lot of evidence to suggest it one way or the other.
 
Sorry for the double post.

So I missed the first 15 minutes of this week's episode and it is not because of my fault whatsoever. The stupid weather here in Oklahoma decided it was a good idea to produce tornadoes tonight and interrupt pretty much all TV coverage for around two hours. I kid you not, there were seven channels devoted to covering the weather! Doesn't having more than one channel devoted to showing the severe weather seem kinda redundant . . . try seven instead. And it just so happens that one of the channels in question was FOX. Why the heck did they even cut to the coverage 15 minutes into the episode? What's the point at that point? I've already missed a quarter of tonight's plot! Good call on that one local Fox station! 👎 :grumpy: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :grumpy: 👎

I don't even really have much to say about the episode because I am/was pretty pissed about missing 15 minutes of 24. I did go ahead and watch the rest of the episode, but I can tell I missed a bunch in the time missed. 👎 👎 :grumpy: :grumpy: :grumpy:
 
Yes you did. Sorry to hear that. Read an episode summary or something. That's what I had to do when I missed an episode.
 
I thought it was a great episode last night, Logan it seem's isn't the master mind after all, I'm really hoping Aaron hasn't been silenced for good and is just locked away somewhere though. And is it just me or is that guy that's been telling Logan what to do another actor fro Robocop?

When Jack left Audrey on her own with Henderson I was thinking, oh no, not again, another "now I can escape" moment, then his men arrived and I was thinking he's a great gy and all, but you just can't get away that many times, then Curtis showed up and his men arrested him and I thought, I didn't expect that.

It's good that the people at the top are acting smarter now as well, Karen is getting well clued up, Bill's being, well Bill and Mike is incredibly suspicous of Logan as well and no doubt the Vice President is too after last weeks show with Heller, who is now at the bottom of a lake, could he still be alive, it was an armoured car he was in so it is water tight, he just can't get out, unless he managed to get out undetected either before it went under or he wound a window down before he went off the edge.

I'm eagerly anticipating next weeks episode.
 
Sorry for the double post myself, I clicked save and nothing happened for a few mins, I clicked it again and wham bam thank you ma'm 2 posts, seperated by a few min's.

I'm sure they wouldn't make Aaron go out like this, he's probably all right.

Yup. That makes three now (Henderson, Gardner, and dude with snazzy earpiece).

I still can't believe Jack just walked onto the plane like that. I was sitting there thinking to myself, "What the **** is he going to do?? Just walk on? .......Oh...."

Did anyone else catch it when Logan admitted to killing Walt? Next week's episode looks awesome.
 
Yeah, when he was talking to Henderson and Henderson was telling him about his "insurance policy".
 
I cannot wait for the episode either...man, its getting good. DO you think the secretary of state made it out without people knowing or is he gone for good?
 
I don't know what to think, he's probably still alive at this point in the story, but it's weather or not he has got out or makes it out of the car before the air supply runs out. I hope someone get's to him and save's him if he wasn't able to get out before the car went under.

Why did he need the suitcases?

I too was a bit surprised he just walked on without having to beat anyone up.
 
Security wasn't quite as tight as Jack made it sound.

Man 1: "Hey, who's that? I've never seen him before. Do you know him?"
Man 2: "Nope. Who cares, I'm off in 5, anyway."
Man 1: "I don't know. He looks suspect. Why is he covering his face?"
Man 2: "Because he's ****ing cold. Plus, he has SUITCASES. TWO of them."
Man 1: "Yeah, you're right. **** it."

Anyway, how crazy would it be if that German agent from earlier is on the flight? I guess it’s safe to say (maybe?) Logan won’t be President by the end of the day, I wonder who is going step up next season.
 
You know what would be even more crazy is if Henderson gave the German agent the recording, though I don't really see that making much sense; but you never know.

Who is going to step up? Wayne Palmer!

Or maybe Henderson passed it off to Aaron and this whole leaving-the-phone-behind thing was just to throw the First Lady off his trail. Nah....

Maybe. Although, Gardner would be the more obvious choice. I'd like to see Mike up there. Or Jack, you know there would be good times if Jack were the President.

EDIT: Nah, the show would be too short if Jack were President.
 
No Jacks not a politician, the Jackmeister get's his hands way too dirty, he's the ultimatre field agent.
 
Interesting episode this week, the plot is starting to make more sense over the last few episodes, but there's still a few holes to be filled. I knew Miles would start trying to take cotrol over CTU.
 
I didn't see Miles wanting to take over CTU, but I did see something similar to what happen in this episode happening. Miles comes off as thinking he is always right and that there is no other way.
 
His call the Mike was an attempt to start pulling the strings for him to take over, trying to say what's her face isn't capable of running the show, he's next in charge. So if Mike had her relieved from command, Miles would then be incharge.
