Day 3: 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM

Characters Introduced:

• Tomas (Miguel Najera): The man Hector left in charge to bring Ramon and Jack back to him safely.

Returning Characters:

• Ryan Chappelle (Final episode of season 2)

Key Moments:

• Jack and Ramon are flying around and everyone is trying to figure out what to do about it. Chappelle starts from the point of Jack and Ramon are expendable.
• Chase recognizes how to get to Chappelle, so he warns Chappelle against killing Jack without the President’s authority. Wayne takes the call and halts any action until he can speak to his brother. Since David is still in mid-debate, Wayne talks in his ear and explains the situation. David pauses and calls off the debate and walks off stage.
• While David dicks around for a couple minutes, Wayne argues that Jack knew the risks and convinces David to give the okay.
• Although they have been locked on for minutes, when the pilots go to fire on them Jack does “something” and they can’t get a lock before he enters the city.
• Jack lands the chopper and flees into the city with Ramon before Chase gains access to communicate with him. Jack and Ramon stay ahead of Chase and eventually snatch a car to improve their mobility.
• There is a great moment after Jack contacts Hector’s plane where Ramon is amused at seeing Jack in action. He then asks Jack why he felt the need to addict himself to heroin because it was unnecessary.
• Duncan finishes running Kyle through all the necessary tests and is shocked to find that he has not been infected with the Cordela virus.
• Ramon thanks Jack for delivering him to the plane by having him jumped and moves in to shoot Jack. Tomas calls him off and says Hector wants Jack alive.
• Since Kim is barely interested in doing her job, she looks at the computer screen that Gael was working on in the tech room. He sees images of Jack at the airport. Before she can raise the alarm, Gael enters the room holding a gun.

Ridiculousness:

• Although Wayne told him that Jack would be out of range in minutes, David slowly walks into the conference room gets comfortable and takes his time swallowing the magical pills that keeps Mandy’s poison away. Who are you slow rolling?
• So does Jack have a force field that repels incoming missile fire? Because they never explained what Jack did to get the helicopter out of missile lock.
• So if you ever need car, just walk into a valet lot and take a set of keys with an alarm attached. Then just drive off, 24 wouldn’t lie to me. This will work.
• Although Chloe is the champion of human interaction, Chappelle challenges her by going in for the awkward hug when Michelle tells him that Tony survived his surgery.

Running Totals:

Too much ridiculousness this hour
