Anyone else notice when they left the apartment how they shut the door so nicely after it had been kicked down earlier.

Also, he and Jack Bauer are the only characters to appear in all 7 seasons.

Where and how do they do background checks on these people? The ones that they do for Target, are probably better.

It was good to see Aaron and Morris in this ep. I 'marked', as I didn't know they'd be shown.

I hope the next episode we don't go through "how larry and chloe think janis is the mole" routine. that was already done a few times. why the hell the big D didn't kidnap the prez' daughter because of how easy it would be is beyond me. otherwise, another solid episode. the list of corrupt people is kind of lame also. it should pick up more when jon voight comes aboard. I think jack kisses renee next week. when she says "do you feel this" he says " do you feel this biatch". she's sooo fine.

Well, we're 9 of 24 through the season and I am very pleased. This season has been a major comeback from season 6.

Not an action-gung ho episode as the last few have been, but still it was thoroughly entertaining.

I think David Fury, who penned this episode, along with Howard Gordon are probably the best 2 writers on the 24 production team.

Even though this episode wasn't as action-oriented, I thought it was really tense and suspenseful. I think my adrenaline levels are still high even at 2:00am PT.

It was really cool seeing Morris and Aaron. I know Morris is supposed to have a bigger part later this season due to Mary Lynn Rajskub's pregnancy.

Sprague Grayden looked really good made up. It's good to see her get work post-Jericho. I think she's a really strong actress.

Okay, I'm going to say that Annie Wersching has been great this season. She's probably the strongest lead or even female lead to act opposite Kiefer. I think alot of what her character is going through exemplifies the humanity that Jack has lost over the years. I'm just amazed how well she has handled some of the more intense scenes. She's done great work showing fear/anger/disgust in her eyes. She's been a perfect compliment to Kiefer's intenseness.

BTW, agree with everyone the scene where Janice calls Sean or "Billy Walsh" a little bitch was freaking hysterical.

I will say that Marika (sp?) is a naive idiot. Look forward to seeing what Dubaku has planned for her.

Spoiler:


I heard that Jon Voight's character Hodges who was introduced in Redemption should be back by episode 12 or 13.

I thought it was funny when Larry Moss was wondering how Chloe survived death after working with Jack so long.

He said something like "That's quite an accomplishment"

Chloe's face looked really rough in this episode.

Spoiler:
as far as next weeks preview...I think Chuckie was asking Jack "Does he feel anything.."and then bitch slapped him...was about him being cold hearted...I'm guessing that Dubaku's dumb chickenhead dies brutally and Jack is too calm about it.


Jack need to hit that though...that would be a good b story w/ Moss finding out

Come on people, in 'next weeks preview', Jack & Renee kiss? Jon Voight talk? We have spoiler tags for a reason. Some of us don't care to know what's coming before it happens.

another great episode. The mole reveal was a bit premature, they could have held us guessing for a bit longer.

Seeing Aaron was great !

Having Billy Walsh as the mole was alright. Gee this season is going fast. Can't believe it's 9 eps already

You should probably start with Season 1 :P Besides that you've already MISSED like 7 hours of this season's story jumping into this episode, so I can see how it would be 'meh' if you don't really know who is who or what has come before.

That was speculation, not shown in previews or anything.

Another solid episode.

I said that to my wife. Looked like the door jam was shattered with the kick but looked all patched up when they left.

Anyone else notice when Renee runs to the laptop at the beginning of the episode, she says, "It won't boot! The hard drive must be fried!"

And then, if you look at the screen, it's fully booted with icons on a Windows desktop? Whoops! I kept rewinding my Tivo and freezing just to get a good laugh.

Didn't it seem like Chloe was hiding her belly? She was always sitting with a bag or something in front of her belly. I think she was pregnant went these episode were shot...

I saw that, too. But, I figured she was just trying to access a virtual machine or something, which is probably a very far-fetched idea.

Since she had her kid last June, I believe she was at least 5-6 months pregnant when they resumed filming.

Re: Twenty Four (24) -- "4:00pm to 5:00pm" -- 2/16/09

Yes, she was definitely pregnant and showing...that was the reason for the big bag, putting her at a table (she'll probably be in front of a computer for most of the remainder of the season) and why her face was a little puffier than we're used to.

Morris and Aaron back in one episode?! Woo hoo!

And as good as it is, you know it's going to be better when Jon Voight moseys back onto the scene (not to mention Tony Todd).

Loved Chloe's line when she called the FBI's network "Half assed backwards" or something along those lines with Larry next to her and then he said that he set up with network.

Sorry, meant to say first episode I've seen this season. I already saw all the other seasons.

I know its probably just convenient writing, but when Jack said it would take too long for them to get the driver to tell them where they were taking Dubaku's GF, that was silly. Isn't he the master at getting ppl to tell him what he wants to know?

I'm trying to like this season, I really am. And there are several things I like Renee being chief among them but they're going back to the mole well again? How is there a mole every single season? I thought Janice was Billy's boss? They haven't made the power structure very clear at all between those 2.
