Key Moments:
- Suvarov finishes his speech and talks to Taylor afterwards. When he asks why Dalia won’t look at him, Taylor tells him that she knows everything but is continuing with the peace treaty. Logan calls Suvarov and lies until he agrees to meet him.
- Jack tells Logan to sit down and wait. Chloe tells Jack that she can get the evidence out to the world. When Cole calls her, she tells Jack that if she doesn’t answer the agents are going to come looking.
- Cole calls Burke and tells him to search the building for Jack and confirms the lethal force order on Jack Bauer.
- Suvarov is on his way, while Chloe is pleading with Jack to stop. She uses all the correct arguments about innocents and collateral damage. She finishes it off with Renee wanting him to pursue justice not vengeance. Logan is stalling Suvarov but instead Jack puts the gun down. He turns to Chloe and makes her promise to see this through because he is probably going to die. Logan realizes that Jack isn’t going through with it and lies some more to get Suvarov to leave. Jack gives Chloe the memory card. He then tells Chloe that she has to shoot him and gives her a gun. Jack screams at Chloe to shoot him but she won’t do it. He screams and screams but she can’t shoot her friend … but when he points a gun at his head she immediately shoots him in the chest. Burke arrives seconds later.
- Chloe calls Cole and tell him that Arlo needs to be ready to upload the file. She doesn’t know if Jack is going to make it. She leaves the scene but Burke stops her before she can leave the building. He tells her that Pillar has ordered her to stay at the scene. She can’t talk her way out of it and heads back to the utility room.
- Logan tells Pillar that Jack has a recording. When he reaches the room, Burke tells him that they haven’t found anything. Pillar walks over to Chloe and asks her about the recording. She balks but he tells her to empty her pockets and then proceeds to pat her down. He doesn’t find anything and she walks out. She hid the data card in her cell phone battery slot. Pillar turns to Jack and the medic says the shot was a through and through. Pillar immediately wants Chloe arrested but Jack starts mumbling before he can get the word out. Pillar leans in to hear what Jack is saying and Jack bites off half his ear. Chloe is back with Cole and she begins uploading the file. Burke arrives and Cole stalls but the agents rush them and Burke pulls the card from the computer. Chloe screams at him but there is always a 24 douche. Burke calls Pillar and he tells him to lock Cole and Chloe down.
- Logan hands the recording to Taylor. He then becomes the devil one last time and pitches her to have Jack Bauer killed to end this once and for all. She agrees ... what the hell is wrong with you? After Logan leaves, Taylor listens to Jack’s recording. It is not insane ramblings but instead it is Jack’s plea for justice. A plea he made directly to Taylor knowing she would get the recording if he were caught.
- Pillar tells Logan that Jack is being handled. They feel victorious. At the same time Taylor is heading down to the press conference. Logan and Pillar share a drink.
- The treaty signing begins and Suvarov and Dalia sign the document. When it’s Taylor’s turn, she uses Omar Hassan’s pen that Dalia had given her. She stalls and looks around. After a long stretch she announces that she is not signing and the peace process is at an end. She tells Woods to protect Jack Bauer’s medical transport. Woods begs her for information and she breaks down and tells him she has made a terrible mistake.
- Jack is crawling out of crashed ambulance. 3 masked men grab him.
- Woods tells Taylor that they didn’t make it in time. They got Jack Bauer.
- The UN Secretary General tells the public that President Taylor has not signed the peace treaty and has made startling allegations. Logan and Pillar are watching this on television. Logan’s phone starts ringing. He tells Pillar that it is Taylor asking about Bauer. Logan tells Pillar not to pick it up. Pillar argues that they shouldn’t add murder to the charges against them. Logan pauses and tells him that he is right and to pick up the phone. When Pillar picks it up, Logan cracks him upside the head with a liquor bottle. He grabs Pillar’s gun and shoots him in the head through a pillow. He blames Jack Bauer one last time then puts the gun to his chin and pulls the trigger. Taylor is pulled away from the door by Secret Service as she tells Woods that she needs Logan alive.
- But don’t worry, Logan has Fight Clubbed himself and is still alive but Woods says he is probably brain damaged. She tells Woods to free Chloe and do whatever needs to be done to find Jack Bauer. Woods says he has already done that.
- Eden is being lead out of CTU in handcuffs. Chloe tells Cole what is going on and it just the 2 of them and Arlo on the CTU floor. They watch Jack being grabbed from the ambulance and track their movements with the drone. They find where they pulled off to do the execution. Cole says NYPD will never arrive in time. Chloe walks away.
- Jack is put on his knees. His executioner says he know who Jack is and will make it quick and clean. Jack scoffs and makes a move but is easily stopped. Jack tells him to pull the trigger but before the shot is fired one of the other guys tells him to stop. Taylor is on the phone through some sort of magic with the drone. She orders him to stand down and wait for the FBI to arrive. She then tells him to put Jack on the phone. Jack is uncuffed and given the phone. Taylor tells him that she withdrew from the peace treaty and will tell the world within the hour what happened and face the consequences, but she says he will have to face them too. She apologizes for failing him and then tells Jack to leave the country because Russia and the United States will be coming after him. She ends it on that because there is nothing else to say. Jack never even responds. Afterwards, he calls Chloe and I’m gonna have to type this through tears. Jack begs her to protect his family. I sob uncontrollably as Jack thanks Chloe for everything she has done for him over the years. Chloe is streaked with tears as she tells them to shutdown the surveillance as Jack starts running.
Ridiculousness:
- Once again Itzin played his scene to the hilt, but this may have been one step too many. I have no idea why Logan had to murder Pillar. It was a pure cartoon villain moment.
Running Totals:
Sadly, no cliches in the final hour
