[dranzal]

Thanks!

Makes you wonder if St. Michael is planning to recruit Mr. Bauer.

 

[jrabs]

Thanks Chicago. I am sure that helps put things in perspective for many newcomers.

 

[maregough]

I thought his brother was killed in an episode last year when they let out some type of gas at CTU. Does anyone rember this?

 

[aimee]

An hour isn’t enough…

There is something about that woman at CTU…

Can you believe Jacks family

 

[Lucania]

There is something about that woman at CTU…

I thought that, too. She may be up to no good :nope:

 

[chicago]

So Karen married Bill afterall. Shouldn’t she have seen how it may have compromised her later? Necessary evil for the plotline, perhaps. She always was wishy washy, though. Or is she only “protecting” him in the best interests of the country?

 

[tkdnick]

There is something about that woman at CTU…

Which woman? Chloe?

 

[jrabs]

Which woman? Chloe?

Ohhhh - no not our Dear Chloe. The other woman - pretty young one with the long brown hair.

 

[tkdnick]

Ohhhh - no not our Dear Chloe. The other woman - pretty young one with the long brown hair.

NO! Not her! She’s so gorgeous! She can’t be a bad guy! :crying: I’m heartbroken. :crying:

 

[SMHW]

NO! Not her! She’s so gorgeous! She can’t be a bad guy! :crying: I’m heartbroken. :crying:

I think the 24 staff is just messing with us. I don’t think they’ve decided themselves if Nadia is good or bad.

 

[jrabs]

I think the 24 staff is just messing with us. I don’t think they’ve decided themselves if Nadia is good or bad.

I think you are right. Nick, it is hard to believe but sometimes even the beautiful ones are plain wicked where Jack is involved.

However, it holds true that the bad guys are always unattractive on the show.

 

[chicago]

I’m intrigued by how the entire season thus far is essentially all about a struggle between individual civil rights and stronghanded security measures, more than anything.

 

[tkdnick]

I think the 24 staff is just messing with us. I don’t think they’ve decided themselves if Nadia is good or bad.

I vote for good!

I haven’t watched much 24 (just season 1 and this season) but it seems to me that they overdo the plot twists sometimes. It gets to the point where it becomes too unbelievable and detracts from the show.

 

[tkdnick]

I just watched last night’s episode. Now I understand the drama with Nadia in the office.

I still hope she turns out to be good…

On a side note, I must say I think it’s funny that so many tv shows cast hispanic people to play middle easterners.

 

[Lucania]

Yea! We get two hours next week!!:dancing:

Jack’s dad killed Graem

Oh my, I was believing the Dad was okay

I still say the boy is Jacks son…well I think so…

 

[Lucania]

Jack’s dad killed Graem

Oh my, I was believing the Dad was okay

I still say the boy is Jacks son…well I think so…

I know!
Jack’s Dad is EVIL!
I’m with you, I think Jack is the boy’s father, too. I hope Morris makes it out of this alive

 

[chicago]

Jack’s dad killed Graem

Oh my, I was believing the Dad was okay

I saw that coming half way through the hour. It wasn’t right that the dad was being left unguarded.

The real question is why Jack would allow himself to get bluffed out. And did his dad REALLY think that there have worse truth syrums at CTU than Jack himself?

I still say the boy is Jacks son…well I think so…

The kid has blonde hair. His dad had darker hair (though balding). The mom is a brunette. Jack is blonde.

The boy is going to grow up to be a really good murderer or rebel against what runs in his bloodline and get made a Catholic bishop who spends his life advocating pacivity.
