Yada, yada you all know how it goes by now - keep the spoilers tagged, etc. Anyway, this episode looks to be pretty badass.

 

[Phoenix]

If by badass you mean any hope of suspending disbelief gets flushed down the toilet (for me anyways) yes. I've been trying really hard, but the stuff I saw in the preview just made me say "OH COME ON... NOW REALLY, WTF"

 

[Agent Dormer]

Rudimentary plot structure:

Spoiler

My friend was telling me that this is the episode where Marwan gets the ALCU to intervene with CTU so Bauer resigns or something to that effect to stop him from getting away.

 

[CloudNL]

I tell you, that Mike Novick is behind it all!
He's doing all kind of things behind the VP's back!

 

[AssMan]

Hopefully it isn't as boring as the last episode.

 

[CloudNL]

Last episode wasn't boring!
It was season 1 suspense style, and ofcourse the return of the famous turtle, Mike Novick. Every episode with Mike is great!

I think we need two separate threads for those who still love the show and for those who'll nitpick.

I'd still be posting in both threads then

But really, an F-117 FIRING AN AIR-TO-AIR MISSILE, C'MON

24 takes place in the future. It was called "Phoenix".

TIME PARADOX.

 

[Kuroyume]

There is a new model of that plane that does that I bet. You're just don't know about it yet.

 

[radioheadrule83]

How come Mike Novic hasn't had typical TV justice for crippling that poor woman in seasons past yet?

 

[Boogie]

There is a new model of that plane that does that I bet. You're just don't know about it yet.

Riiiiiight.

 

[Kuroyume]

Talk about a lack of "FAITH" :lol It's not possible huh?

 

[Boogie]

Talk about a lack of "FAITH" :lol It's not possible huh?

Oh, you're just so witty and clever.

Sure it's "possible", in the same sense that it's "possible" we never went to the moon.

But why would the US military make a new model of a plane, with two-decades old technology, air-to-air capable, that was never designed for air-to-air capability in the first place, instead of simply building a completely new plane, designed for air superiority with stealth technology. They could call it, oh, I don't know, the F-22 Raptor, for example.

 

[MIMIC]

Well, technically, it wasn't his fault. But he was still part of it.

BTW, IT'S ON!

 

[Baron Aloha]

How come Mike Novic hasn't had typical TV justice for crippling that poor woman in seasons past yet?

Oh, yeah I forgot about that. And iirc it WAS his fault. Didn't he grab her or something?

I guess she didn't survive. My guess is that if she did he would be in prison.

It's a shame. I really liked that character. I loved it when she told Sherry off in the elevator. That cemented her as one of my favorites.

 

[MIMIC]

And iirc it WAS his fault. Didn't he grab her or something?

It was the other guy. Mike and someone else locked her in a room, and Mike had the guy watch her. After she broke out, the guy chased her down the stairs and he finally caught up with her and grabbed her. As she struggled to get free, she lost her balance and fell over the edge.

 

[keiichi]

Someone appears to be cracking under pressure

 

[MIMIC]

Chloe: "I guess." :lol

 

[keiichi]

Have I missed something? Where the hell is Jack this episode?

 

[MIMIC]

:lol This show is turning me into a right-winger

 

[Kuroyume]

:lol This show is turning me into a right-winger

No kidding....

Where the f is jack so he could kick some ass, torture that guy, and then saw off his head?

Maybe it was a test plane. They did the same with some F16s, fitted them with vector thrust engines to test their efficiency before they went ahead and used them for the F22. There was a modded f16 with a delta wing fitted to it to test its flight properties before the designed the f22 as well.

 

[MIMIC]

Chloe: "How could I forget? You tell me like every other day."

:lol I love Chloe.

 

[keiichi]

Hurry Jack. Interrogate him!!!!

 

[Kuroyume]

CUT HIS HEAD OFF JACK!!!!!!!!! WOO!

 

[MIMIC]

yay Jack!

 

[joshschw]

that took him WAY to long to figure out. :lol

 

[keiichi]

So, why did they not tell the president that there was no way the Amnesty Group would know that the guy was captured?

 

[MIMIC]

Private citizen Jack > Renegade Jack. :lol

So, why did they not tell the president that there was no way the Amnesty Group would know that the guy was captured?

Same thing I was wondering.

 

[MIMIC]

[TheOMan]

Man, that was a pretty slow episode, but it was all redeemed at the end

 

[DarthWoo]

In response to the other advisor, Novick should have said, "Sure, and if they're right, you'll just have the deaths of millions of American citizens on your hands as your first act as president."

 

[Phoenix]

One thing that I will always remember about this season is:


"HERE IS SOMETHING FOR THE PAIN" *CRACK*

 

[DarienA]
