And sorry if I’m repeating what someone else has picked up on, but Bierko has a mole inside of CTU and I’m wondering if the writers are going to clear up who it is.

How else would Beirko’s group have known he was alive, that he was being moved to Division and the route the convoy was taken (they would have had to have known the route in order to set up the IED that took out the lead vehicle)?

Late comment: Subs are compartmentalized. If some crewmembers were able to close hatches before the gas hit them, they’re probably still alive. Whether or not they’ll be able to stop B & Co from launching missiles, who knows?

Rick: I was basing Jack’s kill on the ”official” episode guide from the Fox network. But then they’re also the ones who gave me the name Victor when it’s clearly Joseph (I watched my recording last night).

Steve: where’s Heller? Probably in the hospital. I’m pretty sure Curtis said, in effect, he was badly hurt but would be okay.

Diamond: I remember Mission Impossible on TV very well. 24 is much better I love the complexity.

You asked wasn’t Heller out? No, he never wrote the letter of resignation.

Mr Big was surprised to hear from Logan because he thought he’d (Logan) killed himself.

There is one other person alive (besides Logan) who is privy to the contents of the tape: Henderson !!

Doesn’t everyone think that Novick will *finally* believe Martha, given the weird way Logan’s been acting.

Okay, she couldn’t let him kill him, but I think Granny should have let Jack slap Miles around a little just for being such a weasel. As James Potter said of Snape, it’s mostly a matter that he exists than anything he might have done.

Who knew Martha was a Marine? One shot…one kill…

Is anyone here old enough to remember MISSION IMPOSSIBLE the T.V. series? Well I am and 24 is just as entertaining but with bullets and blood.
Audrey and daddy aren’t out of the woods yet regarding being part of the problem. Why is daddy still part of the government? I thought he was forced out by that miserable prez.

Martha done good! Too bad Aaron didn’t mark her cheeks with the blood to christan her for her first kill. Her husband needs to be killed and butt good. Who will do it? Probably find out next season! But Martha needs to be a field-agent for CTU she earns a double “0″ rating. But seeing the coming attraction it looks as if Martha embrasses him, that’s a start. They gave us someone to hate and he’s it. Miles is a close second and his come up’ens should be a doozzee.

In all the great scene 24 has given us the two that I really liked was when the woman Razza loved plugs him in her daddy’s office. The next, ok I don’t want to take a hit on this one, Kim plugs a wife-killing husband in his walk-in closet! Just the idea that he bleeds all over his disigner toggs gives me a big chuckle.
When Jellyfish calls Mr. Big and he is suprised to hear from him is it because he expected to hear from the V.P. and this was a take-over inside the admistration? Could be.
If there is a big-player that we haven’t met yet then 24 isn’t playing fair and they are making it impossible to play along. Woud they do that to us?

You’re right, Steve, I forgot about that probable off-camera demise of Evelyn & daughter. And Humanoid, I too had a thought once that Logan might be trying to sting the baddies, but then we all found out that he the Bad-Guy-In-Chief. His motive? Need for oil security vis-a-vis good of the country?

Does anyone have the slightest idea what Pres. Logan’s (aka Jellyfish-no-more) motive is? Why is he doing what he is doing? Could he really be a good guy who has set up a sting operation to catch the bad guys? Doesn’t seem likely since he ordered poor Aarion offed and he almost killed himself. Maybe he wanted to stay even with Martha - after all, if she could shoot a SS agent, he could order one killed, but that can’t be right because she offed the SS guy after he ordered Aaron killed. PLEASE - tell me, what do you think Pres. Jellyfish-no-more is doing and why is he doing it? Anyone with the slightest logical explanation of what he is after?

You may recall that Evelyn, Martha’s assistant, and her daughter were staying in a motel room. Evelyn was wounded in the shoot-out with Henderson. JAck and Wayne left them to go to the bank and pick up the recording that Evelyn stored in a safe deposit box.

Evelyn started to lose blood and her daughter called 911, not knowing that emergency calls were being monitored by the bad guys. Henderson showed up just after the paramedics showed up and he took out the paramedics. Although we were spared seeing it, I’m assuming that Henderson eliminated Evelyn and her daughter once he learned where Jack and Wayne were heading. Henderson doesn’t believe in loose ends.

You’ll recall that Henderson’s men showed up at the bank where another shoot-out occured.

I also wonder about Henderson’s ultimate demise. Will that blaze of glory involve trying to take out Logan? In the final(?) scene, will Martha kill hubby with his own weapon? Will she take a bullet for Aaron? Aaron take a bullet for her? Will the missing threesome of Wayne Palmer, Martha’s ex-asst. & tape smuggler & daughter reappear? Last we heard, weren’t they headed for CTU hqs?

Does anyone have any guesses about who survives next week’s show? I’m guessing Henderson goes down in a blaze of patriotic glory. I’m also wondering if Audrey and/or Mike Novick will bow out. I’ll be disappointed if Aaron doesn’t survive.

I also wonder what Sec. Heller’s role will be next week. We learned last week that he survived the leap over the cliff and we haven’t seen him since. Maybe some last showdown with Logan. After all, the only people left alive who listened to the tape are Heller, Jack and Audrey.
