God, I love this show!
Let’s get right to it, shall we?
SUMMARY
We learn how the Super Secret Nuclear Power Plant Override Meltdown Gadget works…or doesn’t. The idea that they could actually shut down the cooling system for a nuclear chain reaction from a remote location is, well…interesting. Good thing it couldn’t really happen. (Although I’ll bet some of the Islamofascist dingleberries are watching the show and going “MMMMMMMMMM…We got to get us one of THESE things! Maybe Abdul could pick one up for us when he stops at the hardware store to pick up some plutonium …”)
Audrey and Jack, in an effort to ID the American traitor working with the Islamofascist terrorists, head off to the firm that has the security tapes for the party where Audrey saw the guy.
Navi and Dina (sounds like a good title for a Fox sitcom) find out that young Behruzz has killed Takrit and is on the loose. Dina, hoping to save her son from the clutches of bad dad Navi, meets up with Behruzz and double crosses her own husband by urging the youngster to flee for his life. Enraged, Navi shoots Dina, but loses the two in traffic. He reports to his terrorist boss(not the mastermind) that the “job” isn’t done, at which time the boss (played by The Mummy star Andrew Vosloo) gives Novi until the end of the day to kill his own family.
Meanwhile, fat geek Edgar may have figured out a way to thwart the plans of the terrorist by doing a little remote hacking of the nuclear power plants himself. (Anyone else really, really, really worried that our nuke power plants can be hacked by any fat guy with a lap top?)
Richard is DEFINITELY not going to give his dad Secretary Heller a father’s day gift this year.
Erin…well, you’ve gotta feel sorry for her. She’s got the President on her back about this terrorist threat and her daughter picks this day of all days to have one of her “bad days.” Not to mention the dumbass doctors at the CTU clinic who almost kill the kid by dosing her with a drug she’s allergic too.
I’ve got to say, after a very rough start, I’m starting to admire Erin Driscoll…still don’t like her, though.
And how about this…the world is about to end and Paul cries on Heller’s shoulder that he “has a broken heart…” I have only one thing to say about that:
BWAAAAAAAAHHHAAAAAAAAAA…Get a life you spineless, spoiled brat! Eight million people are about to die and this guy is worried about his own silly, stupid, insignificant L’amours …Kinda makes you wonder if he’s involved in all this somehow, doesn’t it?
Finally, poor Jack and Audrey just can’t catch a break. After finding the mystery traitor on the tapes at the security firm, the offices are invaded by a bunch of bloodthirsty, murderous thugs who, after killing both CTU and security company personnel, start gunning for Jack and Audrey. Then, out of ammo and with things looking their blackest, who should show up to pull Jack’s chestnuts out of the fire?
Tony Almeida!
BODY COUNT
After recalculating Jack’s body count from last week, here’s where we stand:
JACK: 18 dead, 1 gratuitous wounding, 1 viscous pistol whipping.
Show: 88 with 1 wounded (Dina)
Jack took out 5 terrorists in the shootout. Tony claims 2. (I thought I might start a whole separate category for Tony’s kills but somehow, I think he’s destined for greater things). The terrorists took out 5 at the security company.
PREDICTION
Maryann is NOT working for the terrorists. She’s either working for the CIA or some other super secret government organization. Why do they want to kill Jack? Could Jack, in his capacity as Assistant to the Secretary of Defense, have stumbled across some kind of nefarious scheme to undermine the government or worse, bilk the taxpayers? The key is that Maryann’s contact mentioned killing BOTH Jack and Audrey (both work in the SoD office).
Stay tuned.
LOOSE ENDS
Terrorists opened the security company’s garage door from the OUTSIDE. Let me ask you this, gentle readers…would you use a security company whose own offices aren’t even secure?
‘Nuff said.
