Day 3: 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Characters Introduced:

Finishing time

Returning Characters:

I just said we're in finishing time

Key Moments:

  • Saunders tells Jack that he will provide the vials locations if he is allowed to leave the country.
  • Tony is very publicly arrested by the order of Brad Hammond.
  • Jack brings Saunders to the Chandler Plaza Hotel. Saunders says he is ready to die and Jack mumbles “I know.” He calls Chase and things get interesting. Chase is bringing Jane with him. Saunders doesn’t believe that Jack will sacrifice Jane. They argue some more but Saunders isn’t caving, so Jack orders Chase to toss her in. In a truly bananas sequence, Jane is slowly dragged through decontamination while Jack and Saunders scream at each other. When she reaches the door to the hotel, Saunders cracks and you can actually hear his voice go higher. He provides the GPS codes to the other couriers.
  • 10 of the couriers are taken down with little trouble. Of course, the LA could not be traced. Saunders gives them the name of the courier.
  • Hammond has Tony do the walk of shame through CTU. He then tells him that he is being charged with treason. Shit really? Tony may get the death penalty!
  • Adam and Chloe located the LA courier and Jack and Chase head out. They track him to a subway station and Jack shuts it down.
  • Jack, Chase, and swarm of CTU agents are tracking the GPS signal but it leads them to a pack of cigarettes. Jack realizes that they are gonna have to search every single person in the station.

Ridiculousness:

  • Wayne and Foxton break into Sherry’s house looking for Sherry’s evidence. Why is this on 24?
  • Sherry shows up while they are doing their b & e. In the only redeeming moment, Foxton punches Sherry in the face. The evidence was taped to her back.
  • In the only way this plot could die, Julia arrives to shoot Sherry and turn the gun on herself while Wayne watches. This is just an abysmal plot.

Running Totals:

Torture doesn’t mean you can’t be creative: 1 (18)

  • Jack tossing Jane in death’s hotel makes the list.
