24 Day 3: 3pm - 4pm
Wow. When TV Guide said there would be a big shock in the first three episodes, and at the end of this episode I yelled out loud, "Holy Shit!"
I guess the big thing to talk about this week is Tony pretty much getting removed from this season after getting shot in the neck. Whether or not he has been offed entirely is unknown, but I am highly doubting it since Michelle seemed composed in the trailer for next week.
This is what makes 24 so awesome. No one is safe. I was really happy to see Tony get out in the field again because his scenes at the Warner house last year were awesome, but I didn't see him getting shot, and especially not so early in the season.
I grabbed that Nicole is an old friend of Jack's (possible former fling?) that he hasn't spoken with since Teri's death (approx 4.5 years ago). She easily picked up that Jack is shooting up. I don't really think she has much of a character at the moment. She is a mere virologist, but I have to imagine there is more to her than that. I don't really see her coming on to Jack or anything like that, but maybe she will be the one to turn Jack in...well if Chase doesn't.
We began to see Chase's temper in this episode. When he found that Tony was going in the field at the orders of Jack, he went ballistic. It is causing strains in his relationship with Kim, but I really don't think he is going to break it off with her. If anything, he is going to just walk out of CTU and find Jack.
The Palmer storyline with Ann seems like a rehash of the past two seasons, but with a different woman. I am tired of the trust issues that Palmer has with the women in his life. Wayne finally admitted his dislike of Ann, and I can definitely see him going to extremes to make sure Ann is not a factor in his brother's reelection.
Kyle Singer was infected with the virus when he was in Mexico 11 hours ago, so come the end of sweeps he will be contagious. I assume for the next 3 hours we are going to have to build up to some kind of hostage situation with Jack and Salizar's people facing off over Singer somewhere.
