Day 8, 9:00-10:00 AM

That's a full service hospital, what with interns apparently ready to just give their shirt and shoes to people. (But what, no socks?)

You're not supposed to use your cell phone in the hospital, Jack.

Just a couple hours ago, Ethan Canin had a heart attack for which he received no medical attention for nearly a full hour, but here he is, back up on his feet and on the job. Trying to show Jack Bauer up in the "endurance" department, obviously.

Logan and the Russian diplomat have a diagonal head conversation.

The judge felt bad about the whole "no bail" thing, so he's taking a 30 minutes recess to give Bazhaev's lawyer 5 minutes with his client.

The bailiff must have very bad hearing. But then, Jack is using his patented intimi-whisper.

Apparently, Russian help getting Dana Walsh into CTU would explain how she got there. We all thought she just checked the "not a mole" box on her application.

Doesn't Logan's political strategy usually operative through the rear entrance?

Cole thinks it's totally okay to let Jack beat on Dana some more.

Logan gestures emphatically and threatens that "this will all be finished." What, television? Or specifically Fox News?

Taking advice from Julius Caesar? Look how things turned out for him.

The President is off to the least secure building in the city -- the CTU office.

Alright, just keep staring creepily into the camera, Katee.

The President is specifically careful to thank CTU for their "efforts," not their results. "I know you won't let me down." (Again.)

Why does Jack have this big box of stuff to take with him from CTU? He doesn't actually work there!

That whole time President Taylor was talking to Jack and Chloe, the Secret Service was busy trying to get that limo turned around in that tiny tunnel.

Grand Theft Chopper.

the hospital wardrobe change was kinda awkward. hey buddy, here's my best shirt and some shoes that are obviously your size?

finally we get to see full-on Jack Bauer rogue awesomeness. Not even Chloe can help him this time, it's kinda neat to put HER in the position of a-hole CTU boss who has to stop Jack. we know she'll help him anyway.

I thought it would be cool to hear Dana Walsh start talking in a Russian accent. They look to be positioning her to be a worthy nemesis super spy, so she probably won't make it out of the season alive...

and again the show broke the wall when Pres. Taylor told Chloe "I'm glad we finally get a scene together" to which Chloe nicely shrugged off.

it's starting to bug me that DC seems a very small place that Jack can get across town in 5 minutes all the time. I'm trying to "just go with it" but seriously it's stretching plausibility.

Finally a president stood up to Jack and said, "NO!" Never happen again, of course.

When will they just realize that Jack is right 100% of the time and make him president? It would solve all the nation's problems.

It's New York City, not D.C., but that just makes it even less plausible.
