24: Season 2 - Hour 20 - 4/22/03
3 a.m. to 4 a.m.
It's Tuesday, and I have no idea where Kim is.
Jack's all tied up and hurting in a major way.
Lynn's locked up on the 5th floor.
Tony and Michelle are sitting idly by waiting for the chip.
Yussef and Kate are getting the crap kicked out of them by reactionary rednecks.
Palmer's being set up for a coup led by the VP/et al.

Just to start the day off right, check this article out at MSNBC.com. Great commentary concerning the whole "Kim escapade." Very interesting read.
Run, Kim, Run!
Remember...no matter where you go, there you are.

No matter how much I enjoyed the last episode, it seems like 24 is stumbling a bit toward the end of the season. Unless some MAJOR events occur, this season just seemed to limp along after the bomb went off, and at episode 20, I'm wondering what can happen to really get people to say "Bring on season 3!"

And you believe, at heart, everyone's a killer...

What with the previous week's tribute to CLERKs, and last week's stupid brother-in-law wandering into this top secret CTU installation, combined with the 20,000 casualties, the identification of Yussuf as a Towelhead from outside the SUV on a dark street, the chip that must have been fried by the electroshock has probably fallen into a storm drain by now, and the boring redundantly extended torture of Jack, etc, etc usw, this show has lost the big edge it had over the silliness of ALIAS.
(As one reviewer put it, reacting to the torturer's words to Jack, every man has his breaking point, and the script writers have reached his.)
Unless the plot tightens up considerably, we're not buying season 2 on DVD.

Holy cow - great episode!

OK I'll come up for some air now. 
Don\'t make me angry. You won\'t like me when I\'m angry.

It had some problems, but I liked it a lot. Nothing as bad as last week's ridiculous Arab-bashing.
What's His Name dying right after telling Jack where Cate went was dumb. Lynne was a shocker, and I'll miss her for the rest of the season (assuming she stays in the hospital) and I hope she returns for year three.
Loved Jack in killer mode. He plugged four people in this installment... what's the Jack death toll for the season? At least 15.

I noticed that Kate pulled a Kim with those 3 guys. I guess that guarantees her as Jack's love interest.
