It's an affair and it's treason. My, they are naughty.
Sean's gonna do a "bounce tap." That sounds naughty, too.
Apparently, terrorists drive Jeeps.
The car chase is on! Cue the rock music!
You know, I once owned a Taurus. So did my friend Roland Deschain. We both agree, Tauruses cannot do that kind of stuff.
Well, it used to be a Zippy Taxi.
Mere product placement isn't enough for Cisco. They're doing a commercial advertising their product placement.
They "don't know who in the government can be trusted." Isn't that pretty much a normal day in Washington?
Now Jack's threatening the paramedics with a gun.
And he goes digging in some strange terrorist's guts without putting on gloves. You don't know where he's been, Jack!
Dubaku apparently gets his ideas on where to keep things safe from watching The Fifth Element.
Erika gets so hot when Sean starts talking about reconfiguring motherboards.
I'm damn glad Chloe was able to recover the deleted files. Because you can buy software at Best Buy that recovers deleted files.
I don't want to work at a place where I have to go back to work and type up a report right after I get shot in the arm.
Wait, the sisters are named Marika and Marisa? Lazy parents in that family.
The First Daughter arrives at the White House. Sadly, no Aaron Pierce.
The President doesn't want to go down this road with her daughter. Not today. Maybe next season, then.
Tony shows up, bragging of a great adventure he's had over the last few hours. But not one so great that it would have been worth actually showing us.
Ah, it's the classic "finish one bad guy, bring in another" formula that 24 uses every season. Not that we'd be surprised anyway. We know from Redemption that we still have the Candyman and Lara Croft's dad to get through.

Walker's nervous breakdown was a pretty bad-ass scene. both for her and Jack. he was all "next time you point a gun on me you better intend on using it" and she was all "I did" and he knew it. well done 24.
I don't know why I was rooting for Sean but somehow I like the how-is-somebody-going-to-escape-the-big-mess plots. he should have listened to Erika and ran. almost sad they recovered the files because now Jack won't get to torture him.
yay Chloe I'm also glad she had enough experience to recover deleted files. we had a tech guy here at work recover some deleted files and I was calling him a voodoo doctor for raising the dead files from the grave it was pretty funny. witchcraft!
I thought it was over. they got a dream-list with evidence and everything. end of day. woah here comes Tony and he flat out says "it's not over yet." and "here's the new plot..." how are they going to get The Candyman in Africa in the next few hours? surely he did not need to come to America himself?
the mole
I remember two years ago, when people were bashing Day 6, the writers said they'd listen and do things differently for Day 7.
Yeah, right.
This is so much "more of the same" that it's not even funny.

FKL –
The one thing that does make this an improvement over season 6, in my mind, is that I feel a lot more investment in the characters this time around. Despite the soap opera lunacy of bringing Tony back from the dead, he’s a character I care about. Bill and Chloe too, and the way they were used – at first – upped the stakes on those characters. I feel that Agent Walker is really popping as a new character too.
BUT… they’re putting these characters through all the same paces as season 6, and 5, and 4. 24 hasn’t really don’t much truly new plot-wise since season 3, if you ask me. Since then, they just shuffle all the same plot point around a white board in the writer’s room, never adding a truly new idea. And because of that, no matter how much better they are with the characters (and again, I think they really are this season), the show just won’t be as good again as it was in the first few seasons.
Dubaku apparently gets his ideas on where to keep things safe from watching The Fifth Element.
Or from Johnathan Wallace.
Now that Marika's dead, does this mean there won't be any lasagna? :( :(
And what's Jack going to do the day he's matched up against a single baddie who doesn't have a wife or family he can threaten?
There was another season of 24 where someone hid something of interest in their body. Season 2 perhaps? Anyway, that flash drive or whatever it is must've been pretty solid. It survived a couple shots from the defibrillator!
