Liked some parts of the episode, but them not killing Heller made me sad a bit. Also, loved how Cat got the Moon Door exit.
I came here for this.

Dammmmmn. Best episode in a long time. That first half hour is up there with the best of the series. And to cap that half hour off with the epic double window toss.
I was laughing my ass off when Jack just tossed Margot out like yesterday's garbage. I was NOT expecting that. I was expecting the normal "take them into custody, they will escape or someone else will kill them" bullshit the show always does. But no. Jack doesn't give a fuck anymore, and thank god.
I like thinking that Jack throwing the son out the window was a spur of the moment thing since the opportunity presented itself. But he looked down and saw the splatter, and it felt REALLY good. So he wanted to get that same high again, so he threw mommy out too.

Love that they had a quick blast of "Jack Storms the Gas Plant" from Season 5, the best music cue in 24 history, this episode.

I've watched every episode and completely missed Morris and her kid being dead.
Anyone have a link?

This maybe a top 4 season. It is non stop. If it lands the finish it could be top 3.
So would everyone agree that Adrian was in on this from the start?
He disassociated himself with Derrick Yates at the start to Jack...but I think he knew exactly what Yates was doing, and was essentially using him and Margot to achieve his goal.
Now Margot has screwed up, he's taken it into his own hands
Yeah?

Look at those cold, dead eyes staring into the camera. He's Margot's backup plan with a bioweapon in his McDonald's bag.

Worse than the nutter in the background is that awful right wing Brit news psycho Kay Burley is in 24
The same reason why he killed Dana Walsh lol

This is great.
Yes. And this was a terrifically scored episode in general.

I think I yelled "Mother. Fucking. Jack Bauer." and "BIG BOSS!" about 6 times in that episode.
So good. How many episodes we have left?
edit:
We need a gif of Jack out of nowhere popping out on top of the box and shooting the guy.

Got to admit though. Jacks aiming in this is top freakin notch.
Ayo Jack now that your pardoned come back to LA and play for the Lakers.
It's possible, but he keeps saying he's just the "middleman" meaning there is someone he is reporting to, or working for. With only three episodes left, and this season possibly being the last, I hope they reveal the final villain to be someone of significance from 24 past history. Please don't disappoint me 24 writers!
Cyborg Logan.
True lol. Honestly anyone else outside of that, then this show becomes a Sci-Fi show lol. I'll avoid any theories and spoilers in hopes of being surprised, but my expectations are going to be low now.

I knew Heller was still alive! Man, that episode was incredible. It's possible that I'm being prisoner of the moment here, but that may be my all-time favorite episode of 24. I didn't feel that there was one slow moment during that episode; things were moving at a nice pace, and a lot was accomplished throughout the episode. Beautiful stuff!
TL;DR:

DUDE, Complete the gif.
Show Jack saying stuff before throwing her out the window.
Add "The Heller's sends their regards."

That individual in this thread who predicted exactly what would happen with regards to Heller must either have a PhD in 24 twists or have cracked through the firewalls in firewalls to enter the 24/48-bit quad core database used to store the 24 scripts.
This episode was absolutely fantastic and I'm so glad Jack Bauer's window throw, climbing shot, and the McDonalds man have been giffed already. I hope Chloe doesn't die. EDIT: Actually, I hope Jack doesn't develop selective amnesia and kill Chloe after everything she's done for him just because she went with Adrian.
Yes that combination of jargon is done specifically to mimic the nonsense spouted by technical characters in 24 and is not meant to be serious or sensible.

Am I doing it right?!
Am I doing it right?!
Yes. Especially since the drones are not part of the game anymore.
Yes! Thank you.
I just love how Jack is standing on top of the thing not as if he just scampered up on top of it, but as if he had always been there, forever unmoving, waiting to strike.

"We're so grateful for your help Mr. America, it was only your shitty drones and sub par security that caused hundreds of people to die in the first place."
I suppose at least they acknowledged the RAF's existence as a possible solution.
This season has been weird. 24 is a pulpy and ridiculous show, but they seem to have turned it up to 11 while turning the budget down to 1. From the CGI to the dialogue and acting, everything feels so cheap and rushed. Starting to feel more like a fan film than a real show.
It's like they went to all this trouble to film in London, then hired the worst British actors they could find.
