Day 7: 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Characters Introduced:

  • Erika (Ever Carradine): One of the blandest characters ever introduced, her only purpose is to be a piece in Sean's storyline.
  • Litvak (Steve Cell): The other guy in Emerson’s team.
  • Zeze Eto’o (Adetokumboh M’Cormack): Matobo’s head of security.
  • Alama Matobo (Tonya Pinkins): Matobo’s wife and weak spot.

Returning Characters:

None

Key Moments:

  • FBI can’t track Bill’s van. Renee blames herself for trusting Jack. She asks Janis about Tanner’s condition. Larry updates Taylor on what just happened.
  • Jack is walked into Bill’s cathedral hideout. Jack kills his moment with Chloe by demanding to know how Tony is not dead. Emerson brought Tony back to life 10 minutes after he died. He also admits that he was legit working for Emerson for 3 years because he was angry. The CIP device was too far. Once he found out it was for Dubaku he called Bill. Jack agrees to help them get Tony back undercover.
  • Tony calls Emerson to say he is out of the FBI and offers Jack as a replacement for Tanner.
  • Henry tells Gedge that they are heading back for another meeting with Samantha.
  • Janis tells Renee that Tanner is awake.
  • Jack and Tony talk Emerson while on the road. Tony truly likes him but tells Jack that he is onboard. Emerson greets them and immediately sends Jack downstairs to talk with Tony alone. Tony pitches Jack to Emerson but is denied. Emerson wants Tony to kill Jack. Chloe is horrified but Bill knew this was a possibility and tells Chloe that Jack knew that too. Jack springs into action and takes out both guys watching him. He holds one of them hostage and pleads his case to Emerson. Emerson is swayed and kills the thug Jack was holding hostage. Jack offers him his gun but Emerson tells him to keep it.
  • Sean pretends to be Larry and gets his wife’s plane next in line to land.
  • Taylor and Matobo meet about Dubaku’s demands. Ethan withheld atrocities Juma is committing from Taylor because he wants her to give in to Dubaku.
  • Jack, sadly, ditches the trench coat for some basic fieldwork gear. He shares some time with Emerson. This is a phenomenal conversation where Emerson is clearly feeling him out and Jack has to lie on his toes. He explains that he came back to the United States because he never felt he did anything wrong and wanted to find out where he stood. Emerson smiles and welcomes him aboard. Tony tells Jack to be careful. Emerson gets the location for their next job; they are kidnapping Matobo.
  • Henry arrives at a park and he tells Gedge to leave so he can meet with Samantah alone. She shows up and tells him that Roger was investigating bank accounts that led to Sangala. They were connected to someone in Taylor’s administration. She hands him the evidence and leaves. Gedge watches from a bridge.
  • I blacked out for a minute, but I think Renee tortured Tanner.
  • Renee calls Larry to tell him that Matobo is the next target.
  • Larry calls Eto’o and tells him to lock down Matobo. He runs and grabs Matobo and his wife. Emerson’s team bursts through the window. Eto’o gets the Matobos into the panic room in time. Emerson’s team explores the panic room. Jack takes a golf club to the drywall in a search for a weak point. Emerson beats Eto’o but is told that only Matobo can open the door. Tony tells Jack that they need Matobo so they can get to Dubaku.

Ridiculousness:

This is the first half-assed attempt to explain how Tony is alive. What did CTU do with Tony's body after he died if Emerson was able to get to it within 10 minutes?

Running Totals:

Torture doesn’t mean you can’t be creative: 1 (47)

  • Renee messes with Tanner’s medical equipment to cause him pain.
