Day 4: 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM

Characters Introduced:

Could have but decided not to

Returning Characters:

Not this time

Key Moments:

  • Jack calls Heller and tells him that CTU should not be notified of their location. There is a mole in CTU and Heller needs to flush it out. Tony offers to take them to his sweet pad. This is the first indication that Tony is a bitter bitter man. Palmer got him out of prison but Michelle left him. Tony tells Jack to leave him out of his plans.
  • Marwan informs Navi that he needs to manage the meltdowns personally.
  • Dina is bleeding all over the place and scaring the hell out of Behrooz.
  • YES! Marianne brings back Jamey’s secret bathroom stall for illicit phone calls. Henry tells her to stay at CTU until they find and kill Jack.
  • Tony pulls up to his house. Jack does a security sweep which sweetly ends with him pulling a gun on Tony’s skank girlfriend. Jack says she can’t leave the house and Tony puts her in line. Tony apologizes to Jack and Jack gets one of his best comedic lines ever by deadpanning “she seems sweet.” Jack gets to work on the data he downloaded and tells Audrey that Tony likes to drink since he got out of jail.
  • Heller’s mole hunt is in play and Marianne moves to pass the false data to Henry.
  • Now Tony’s girlfriend is on the phone, Jack looks at Tony and Tony goes to straighten her out once again. This is the greatest hour ever.
  • Heller brings his mole hunt findings to Driscoll and they move to arrest … Sarah. Whoops, but she sucks at her job anyway.
  • Now Driscoll is willing to go to Jack’s lengths, she is immediately torturing Sarah.
  • Tony sits down to drink beer and watch soccer. Heller calls to tell Jack that they have arrested Sarah and he sends Secret Service to pick up Audrey. Jack tries to talk to Tony about life but he is still too broken and angry.
  • Jack indentifies the man as Henry Powell. He freelanced for McLennen-Forster and is scheduled to be choppered out of LA in the next 15 minutes. Audrey’s ride arrives and she heads back to CTU. Jack is about to leave to chase after Henry when Tony mans up and offers his help.
  • Edgar spent most of the hour trying to prove that Sarah was not the mole. He figures out that it was Marianne and pulls a stunt so Curtis will walk with him to Driscoll’s office. Edgar explains what he found and Curtis chases after an escaping Marianne. He reaches her before she can get into her car. She is arrested and the agent who tries to open her car blows up.
  • Henry pulls a gun on the helicopter pilot to get out of the city. Jack and Tony drive right onto the helipad. Tony visibly walks up to the pilot distracting Henry. Jack comes up from the other side and drags Henry out of the chopper. After arresting Henry a sniper kills him before he can be put in the back of the SUV.

Ridiculousness:

  • I could write something about why Tony lives in such a shithole, did the government take all his money, but the scenes at her house were fantastic so it was worth it.

Torture doesn’t mean you can’t be creative: 1 (21)
