Day 7, 6:00-8:00 PM

No one could ever penetrate this amazing "take a cursory glance at your name tag" security they have at the hospital.

Juma is sight-seeing in D.C.

The guy who just killed Dubaku is so evil, he's using a cell phone in a hospital!

Chloe's a Mac; Janis is a PC.

Even Chloe can't overcome TV computer logic, where pushing the DELETE key actually makes a file delete.

Senator Mayer just made himself comfortable behind the desk.

There will be an attack "within the hour!" (Drink!)

Chloe vs. Janis. Tech fight!

A tazer. Not Jack's first weapon of choice, but it'll do.

"Dammit!" (Drink!)

Jack's on a rampage! He tazed the phone!

Mayer: "I know the man." President Taylor: "Apparently, you don't." Zing!

It's a damn good thing Renee's phone is on vibrate as she sneaks around this warehouse.

Juma needs "Dubaku Jr." on the "perimeter." (Drink!)

Renee continues to sneak around as a dozen soldiers all repeatedly fail their perception rolls.

Time for Renee to do some wakeboarding, sans board.

Something finally manages to kill a cell phone on 24.

What possible purpose does that picture of the White House serve in planning an attack on the White House, other than to tell someone spying on you where you're intending to attack?

Agent Moss just keeps circling the Capitol in his helicopter.

That little tiny drill bit opens up a four foot hole in less than three minutes. I need to get me a drill like that!

Agent Moss says he has "every reason" to think Walker is alive and in pursuit of the terrorists. Wait, does he even have any reason to think that?

Renee, you want to maybe take the ranger's car?

"Dammit, Bill!" (Drink! Ugh, that's four....)

Bill is too tortured to torture.

"THAT'S what I think of your damn Chinese food!" (Maybe he wouldn't have been killed if he'd been serving lasagna, a terrorist's favorite dinner.)

Renee tells Dubaku Jr. to eat shovel!

Bill is an important character, so he gets to be the first hostage, rather than casualty #47.

Juma cut off communications. "Dammit!" (Drink! That's five.)

If Juma's group can watch all these cameras, why can't anyone on the Secret Service do it?

They're hacking the electronic lock on the door. "Dammit!" (Drink... okay, I can't see straight anymore.)

Jon Voight is pissed. Don't call during his noodles.

"Stress is the fertilizer of creativity." And shit is fertilizer. Therefore, stress is shit to creativity. Yeah, that's true.

The Vice President won't act because he doesn't have enough intelligence. In more ways than one.

Jack Bauer says it's time to stop climate change. You'd better damn well do it!

Senator Mayer gets the Prime Weasel moment. What has Jack done?!

Near the end of the second episode, there's a newscast on TV with a title that reads "White House Under Seige". That's like a terrorist attack on spelling.

BTW, I didn't know it was a two-parter this week. So my DVR only caught the second one. I started watching it later in the evening with images in the recap montage that showed Jack shoving a gun into Bill's face. I knew I'd missed something... So I had to d/l episode 11 before I could watch eposide 12.
Next thing you're going to tell me I've missed the half dozen new episodes of Prison Break?
Geez.

someone at work pointed out that this illustrates the difference a FEMALE president makes. she was thinking with her heart instead of her head. I know the "could you let your daughter die?" argument would seem to work on Jack, but as he tried to point out, she's THE PRESIDENT and he's not. she should have never opened the door!!!

I don't know why I was reminded of Firefly (or various other Joss Whedon shows) when both Aaron and Bill got seriously messed up (Aaron more than Bill obviously.) it just seems like the thing you're likely to see on one of his shows. of course I totally expected each of them to be killed (especially Bill - that was intense!) but I guess the "hostage" thing works fine.

this is the type of glorious mess I like and can't wait to see how they get out of!
