24 - day 2

jack's line, 'i dont know what i believe anymore.'

is the dad a murderer? sentence?
danielle - yes. 10 years.
adam - felony murder. 20 year sentence, he will get out in 12.
zach - murder 2nd degree, but family is alive so its alright. life in jail though.
brittany - yes. 20 years.
kent - yes. death penalty.

1st hour recap: fair. im not totally enthraled yet. fun to watch, but im not hooked on the story yet. im sure fox will throw out some ridiculous cliff hanger at the end of the 2nd hour though to try and hook everyone.


just got the 'trust me' from jack. its a good episode. when he was asking curtis to help him and trust him on using the [ex]terrorist.

how did the guy get to the terrorist facility so quickly? once again a complete disregard for the layout of los angeles. the distance from valencia to palmdale is 45 miles. we dont know where the bus was that he was released from. we do know that he was released from the bus towards the end of the 8 am hour and he arrived in the facility at the beginning of 9 am hour. its possible that he pulled it off, but unlikely that the bus was heading towards an airport in the valencia direction.

will the mom do something stupid? yep!! alright, she somehow got patched throught to ctu and then of course to jack bauer, so she didnt blow everything yet. she got lucky, but i still think she is capable of messing things up.

'dont even think about it, just do it!' zach's quote after ahmed was told to kill the boy. its a good point. he will think about it and somehow the boy will survive.

episode 2 recap: classic 24. they delivered. some serious shock value from them. i didnt see either one of those coming. jack always kills people 'because its necessary,' but i didnt expect the curtis shooting.
and the nuke. didnt think it would actually go off. now i keep on thinking that a nuke is going to blow up at any moment in the distance.

i also think that they will contradict the layout perception that they are making about LA. they probably wont evacuate ctu because they will say it is too far from where the bomb was evacuated, and it probably is pretty far away, but if they needed to drive to it for some reason they could probably get there in roughly 4.3 minutes.

next weeks preview: jack's back. of course.
