This was a fun episode, lots of good stuff to springboard into more directions.
Jack is still the man, always one step ahead.
Now will Vaughn see the light of day now that he's got 2 Covenant ladies on his tail.

Did anyone else call the ending? You knew it was coming, but it still doesn't lessen the fact that it was freakin' awesome.
I liked how they blended the briefings together: the one including Lauren and the one about her.
Peggy Lipton is good on the show. David Carradine was great during that opening w/ Sark - too bad it was short-lived.
Marshall continues to bring the funny.

I was watching 24. Could someone please enlighten me on the last 10 minutes of the show? I was switching between the 2, being that those are my favorite 2 shows. But 24 is still my fav. That and they never repeat.
Thanks in advance.

I thought someone was going to show up and break him out but once they started the IV I figured they were faking his death.
Marshall's face when Syd and him were listening in on the Vaughn's was great

Sloane was executed by lethal injection, but at the end Jack injects him with something to wake him up. As far as we know Jack is the only one who know's he faked Sloane's death.

Before the execution, Jack shows up at Sloan's cell and offers Sloan some wine because Sloan shared some wine with Jack on the ocassion of Sydney's birthday in 1975, and in light of the news of Sloan's daughter being the topic of the day, Jack thought he would return the favor to Sloan. In the wine was a drug that would neutralize the lethal injection, and after the execution, when Sloan's body was in the morgue/holding area, Jack sneaks in and injected him with something to wake him up from. Then he tells Sloan that he's doing this because he needs him alive more than he needs him dead (well, that was the gist).

Too little David Carradine [even though I had a DC fix this weekend...]
And, yes, Marshall does rock.

A little confused about one thing...
They made a big deal about Jack being the only one who could put an end to the execution by coming forward with what he knows about "The Trust". However, the only reason that Sloane came under suspicion of violating his parole agreement was because he was perceived to have done things for the Senator, who was beleived to be the mole. As Dixon, Sydney, Marshall, Vaughan, and many others eventually figured out that Lauren was actually the mole, couldn't any of them have figured out that Sloane's dealings with the Senator were on the up and up, even without needing Jack's information regarding "The Trust"?

Of course it seems sloppy to just execute a guy when evidence comes into question, but one also has to see that they know Sloane has been a bad guy for a long time and most of them have specific reason to hate him (Dixon blames him for his wife, Jack for the affair, etc...) so no one is exactly fighting for him either.

Lauren is caught red-handed. I wonder what they will do with her now.
I'm glad Sloane didn't die. Even though he did a lot of bad things (eg. killing Syd's fiance), I want to see him alive to see what he will do next.

Nice gunfight scene when Sydney went to get the hourglass. I'm really curious to see how it works.
