24 Day 3: 8pm - 9pm

After last week's awesome episode, we follow it up with one that isn't nearly on par. The episode starts off with Tony explaining to President Palmer the situation. Everything from the past 7 hours was setup by Tony, Gael, and Jack: the body at health services, the virus in general, etc. There is a bigger virus on the market, and Jack needed to reestablish his cover with the Salizards to incercept it. Palmer is definitely pissed about it.

Obviously, Ramon isn't pleased about Jack being back in the circle. Breaking him out of prison was all part of his plan to gain the trust of Hector so he can get capital to buy the virus from the Ukranians. Jack is playing the angle of being pissed that he isn't getting much love from CTU. His wife was murdered because of the job, his daughter isn't the same because of it, and he was pissed because he busted his hump to get Ramon in jail and got nothing for it but "a demotion and a heroine habit."

The first strains on Hector and Ramon's relationship began to show because of Jack being back. Hector trusts him, but Ramon doesn't. One of them is going to kill the other most likely. The other big detail we discover about Jack is that Maria and he had a fling together while he was undercover the last time. She is obviously bitter that he didn't get her out of their like he said he would. I guess we can assume that Kate and Jack's relationship ended in part because of this.

Tony is struggling to deal with the fac that he was SHOT IN THE NECK a few hours ago and is back at full speed. How long he is going to be able to last in this condition is beyond me. I am going to guess that he collapses a few more times and then they ship him back to the hospital. Michelle is upset that Tony didn't tell her about the Salizar op. Guess the honeymoon's over.

Thank god Anne is gone. Every week I care less and less about Palmer's storyline. Political scandals are not interesting to me. I can see that stuff on FoxNews. I want to see people getting shot, terrorist threats, and Jack Bauer doing the impossible when I watch 24. Anyway, Anne is gone and her name is cleared by some letters her now deceased ex husband gave her. yippee. I don't even think Sherry could save this storyline.

Chase is on the hunt for Jack, but has been captured by the Salizards (predictable). To prove his loyalty to Ramon and Hector, Jack has to show that he would kill Chase. Good thing that gun was unloaded. Where is this going to lead? Chase thinks Jack has turned, and Jack can't really tell Chase what is going on for fear of losing his cover.

So, January 6, 2004 is when 24 returns, and there is a big surprise dealing with another buyer for the virus. hmm. I wonder who the other buyer is? coughNINAcough.
