Day 3: 1:00 AM - 2:00 AM

Characters Introduced:

  • Marcus Alvers (Lothaire Bluteau): Amador’s chemist and a man who likes dirty dirty sex with naughty people.

Returning Characters:

Move along

Key Moments:

  • Nina tricks Chase, holds him at gunpoint, and has him send a false message to Jack. Instead fooling him, Jack smashes her in the face out of nowhere. He sends Chase back to the Delta unit so he can question Nina. By question he meant kill but Nina pleads her case that she can get him to Amador.
  • Jack, Chase, and Nina board the plane Delta is flying back to LA.
  • Nina gives up the name Alvers and Jack sends the name to Tony. We then get a phenomenal conversation between Jack and Chase. Jack’s way of apologizing is to say that decisions need to be made in the field and he believed Ramon wouldn’t have handed him a loaded gun. Chase asks what if he had and Jack just looks at him. It doesn’t matter because they are boys again.
  • After CTU confirms Alvers, Jack questions Nina some more. Eventually she tells him how to contact Alvers. She gives him a number to dial and after Jack completes the sequence all of CTU’s computers go haywire. Nina gleefully gloats about what she’s done.
  • Tony tells Jack what’s happening. Jack tells him to get Chloe on it and he doesn’t give a shit why she has been sidelined. Nina wants the plan turned around back to Mexico.
  • Chappelle frees Super-Chloe the computer whisper.
  • Sherry shows up at the Miliken household to get the phone numbers Alan has called tonight.
  • When Chloe calls Jack with an update, Chase uses the distraction to share a quick moment with Nina. Chase is awesome because all he says to Nina is that if she keeps playing Jack he is going to kill her and then he just smiles at her and leaves.
  • Sherry yells at Alan until he has a heart attack then she prevents Julia from bringing him his meds.
  • Tony overrides Jack’s orders and has the plan turn around and head back to Mexico. Jack fixes this problem by putting his gun to the pilot’s head. Chloe sees through Nina’s traps and cleans the system. Jack pauses and tells the pilot that he can file a report on him. In about the happiest Jack has ever been, he smiles and tells Nina that they are back in control.

Ridiculousness:

  • Chappelle is still dealing with Chloe’s unknown baby. Now he threatens her with testing the baby to find out her identity.
  • Jack dials the number that Nina tells him to. No questions asked. Really Jack?
  • They play lip service to it, but it’s been over 3 years now and with the advancing of technology I find it hard to believe that Nina was able to hide a virus in the CTU computers undetected.
  • Since it’s now pure soap opera, Sherry straight up murders Alan. Well that is how some cleaners fix problems.
  • Chloe finally cracks under Chappelle’s pressure and reveals that it is Chase’s baby.
