Go Martha!!!!!111one111!!!
She saved Aron. And Henderson is scared for his life. Thats unusual. He is no longer RoboCop.

[SirLemming]

I had some choice words ready for Henderson, but I just don't know what to think of him now.

As for that particular use of the nerve gas, I did not see it coming.

I'm glad that Martha looks like she's not going to kill herself. And that Aaron's okay.

[NickWhiz1]

Nice, using the nerve gas to secure a set of even more powerful weapons.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure how they'll manage to wrap up all the remaining storylines in two hours...

[solarflere]

At least the submarine is non-nuclear. But the low amount of security is not beliavable. Submarines have more security than that. Its standard procedure.

[Carolina Red]

Yeah, why bother with nerve gas when you can use an actual Russian sub instead?

This hour I saw that Martha didn't have as much of a concern for her husband, but she had better things to do at the time. You think next week she will come forward to him?

[Temple Fugate]

A good installment. Lots of plot development, but now that the recording's been destroyed/damaged/whatever, it's deflated me so much that I feel like they should just give up. But of course Jack can't do that! Hopefully they've got the tech to fix the scrambling.

Karen's slap was WEAK. Miles deserved a much bigger hit than that. At least they got to him quickly, though. That *^$*%*&(&^#. :mad:

Aaron Pierce is amazing. We all knew that, but it bears repeating. "Nothing you have said or done is acceptable to me." You fricking own, dude.

Jack, you idiot. Even I knew Henderson was giving up the agents for a good reason. To make matters worse, the submarine should have dove immediately so nobody could have accessed it. They should have at least sealed the entryway to prevent exactly the kind of infiltration that occurred. Stupid, stupid.

This will all be fixed next week, of course, but it kinda feels like the writers had patched too many loose ends, and had to self-destruct the story a little to get more action out of the finale. Hopefully they'll get a good show out of it...they'd better if they want me to declare this the best season ever. You're slipping, 24...

Not to mention a few real-time skips. Bah! It's your 118th episode. You people should be masters at this by now.

24 #5AFF22: "Day 5: 4:00am-5:00am" - ***1/2

2 hours remain...

[Icer]

Lots of loose ends to be tied up, should be an interesting finale.

[Gokou Ruri]

I loved the way Aaron called Logan by his first name instead of "Mr. President". A subtle, yet effective way to show Aaron's complete loss of a respect in the man.

[Lord Dalek]

Ok here are our factions going into the finale.

CTU/Homeland Security/Anti-Logan

Jack Bauer
Audrey Raines
Bill Buchannan
Chloe O'Brien
Karen Hayes
Martha Logan
Aaron Pierce
Wayne Palmer
James Heller

Logan Administration/Oil Cabal

Graham
Charles Logan
Subordanates
Miles Papazian
Christopher Henderson

Bierko Terrorists/Russian Sub

Vladamir Bierko
Bierko's lieutenant

Wild Cards

Mike Novick
Hal Gardner

[solarflere]

Wild Cards

Mike Novick
Hal Gardner Mike Novick always supported Jack. He is defenetly will be on his side. Hal Gardber called Jack a hero, and most likely wants the president's seat so he will support jack as well.

[Peter Paltridge]

I doubt everything will be resolved. These shadow government "Patriots" will probably remain for the next season.

I wonder if Logan is going to say now that Martha killed that guy, has gone crazy, and must be arrested. Woudln't put it past him.

[TheEvilClown]

I keep on watching the preview for next week and I keep on wondering

Who's the Funeral for?

[Icer]

I keep on watching the preview for next week and I keep on wondering

Who's the Funeral for?Well it's only been a day
Since Palmer died

[Malex]

It's David Palmer's funeral

Tonight's episode was just a huge rush. I was one of the fools that almost thought that Henderson betrayed CTU. It almost seems something that Jack would say but still say it in a way that CTU knew he was on CTU's side almost like Flank 2 but in a different fashion and situation. Yeah for Aaron being alive and Martha saving him, but I know that Pres. Logan will eventually find out that Agent What's-his-name has not come back for a while. My brother thought the Cintox was too much to commandeer the sub, but it was obvious that a gunfight would have been unnecessary and reckless since the equipment could have been damaged. I really can't wait for the finale though. I still think that this could be Jack Bauer's last day though.

[SirLemming]

I sorta wonder why Henderson didn't just say "alright, I'm going to make him think I'm selling you out." Is it just 'cause he's a prick?



Miles Papazian
LOL, what a stupid name. (I never quite catch all these names in the course of the show.)

I doubt that since Keifer has signed for 3 more seasons. He wants to come back and I don't think Fox will say No. Also add in the fact of the 24 movie.

[Freedom Fighter]

I KNEW I WASN'T CRAZY! I TOLD YOU, THERE WAS ONE CANISTER LEFT! HA! :D

Ahem...

Obviously, there had to be more than Miles siding with the President for his own gains to keep things interesting for the final three hours. Thus, Bierko jumps his way back on-stage, pulls a rabbit out of his hat in an extra Syntox Gas canister he had stored away for contingency, and proceeds to use it to take over a Russian submarine. Why? Apparently, to cause mass destruction using its missiles.

On the B-plot... yeah for Aaron still being alive (though barely)! Double yeah for Martha rescuing Aaron from a silent death! Now I'm starting to feel positive the First Lady will come out of this alive.

Three possible victims to Jack Bauer in next week's finale: Henderson, Bierko, and President Logan. Who will he take out (if any)? I wonder...

This week's episode: 8 out of 10.

[Peter Paltridge]

....shoot, Kim Raver's pilot was picked up.

24's popularity is becoming a story problem; anyone who plays a significant role in a season is then immediately offered a bunch of other opportunities and takes their leave. I think the high death rate is going to continue for sure.

I doubt she'll want to be full-time on two shows at the same time (very rarely done) but maybe they'll work something out.

My guess is that Audrey will take some DOD post that requires her to move to Washington. How "The Nine" does against Law & Order and CSI: New York will determine if/when she comes back to "24."

Patrick Duffy did it for "Dallas" and "Man From Atlantis." Scott Baio also did it a few times. It can be done.
