8:00 PM - 9:00 PM

In the recap, we get to see Jack and Doyle shoot up that pilot again. Thankfully, we're spared that meaningless grenade this time around.

When is Daniels planning his strike? "Within the hour." Drink!

Gredenko talks Fayed into continued cooperation with the time honored "go ahead, shoot me" ploy.

Then Gredenko calls the eggman.

Brady doesn't like red food. Not even total strangers stop to eat on 24.

Brady has to hack into some files before he can watch Wapner.

Milo's busy watching the 24-hour Interrogation Room Network.

We now welcome another bastard from Denver. (And he's a Tok'ra.)

Karen consoles Sandra about the really ugly wallpaper border outside Wayne's hospital room.

Daniels clarifies that 40 minutes is in fact "less than an hour," just so we're all clear on what's going to take place by the end of this episode.

Lennox isn't focused on the meeting. He's memorizing his lines for the next episode of Numb3rs.

Daniels' aid Lisa then hands him his Secret Santa.

Lisa has a source in the White House Med Bay? Damn, she's good.

This driver's license photo is brought to you by Sprint Picture Mail.

Brady explains to Jack what he was doing. It sounds like he got hold of Chloe's pages of script.

Jack still can't pronounce "nuclear."

Jack's "best shot" is now to put Brady in harm's way. But we all know he'll be fine, because the number of letters FOX would get if anything bad happened to him would make all the "you're anti-Muslim" mail look like a drop in the bucket.

Mark and Brady are much better brotherly role models than Jack and Graem.

People from Denver are such schmucks that they don't stop being schmucks to each other long enough to take care of the nuclear weapons on the loose.

Doyle: "You've screwed with the wrong guy for the last time, pal." It's like two cliches for the price of one!

Buchanan tells Nadia this crisis is far from over. (About nine hours from over.)

Milo still wanted to say "I'm sorry" to Nadia... in French.

Palmer's crashing. And again, one must ask, where's the crash team right now that's more important than there with the President of the United States?

Jack (sotfly): "Dammit." Take a quiet drink.

Gredenko pulls up. Brady: "I'm not supposed to tell you about the guy in my ear."

In a true reversal from the norm for 24, Jack successfully catches the most recently introduced "big bad guy" first.

As we come back from commercial, the beeping of Wayne Palmer's vital signs forms a pleasant counterpoint to the ticking clock.

Lisa gives Daniels another one of her "you're so hot when you threaten nuclear annihilation" looks.

This week ends basically the same as last week, with Daniels descending to another level of irrational insanity to demonstrate just how much he's wanting to nuke something today.

It seemed like the Doyle/tok'ra (that's what i call him too) thing was just a way to get Doyle looking like a good guy now.

Milo is da man! he's all sorts of levels of "hero" today. hmm you think they'll kill him or Nadia later? hopefully at least one couple will get a happily-ever-after ending (their odds aren't good...)

and how come nobody is talking about killing the obviously insane VP? y'know, for the good of the country or whatever...I guess Wayne woke up so they don't have to, but I thought somebody would've had that idea by now.

strangely I was on the edge of my seat thinking "no way! would they really kill the "special" kid?!!" even though I was 99.9% sure they wouldn't. but since it's *24*, I thought there was a tiny chance they would go-there. and that about sums up why this show is great :)
