Showdown at the CTU Corral
That was cool. I thought Jack was going to clock Tony.
I feel that tonight's show was all about moving the story along. We had many things to cover: Escaped cheating husband, Giving Ryan's body to Saunders' thugs (Yes, Chappelle is truly dead.), giving Jack very little time to digest what he's just done, Palmer convening the cabinet, discovering a new thread and that Saunders has a daughter named Jane, Jack making the call for a CTU agent to switch places with Jane in Santa Barbara, Chloe coming up with the only viable match: Kim, Tony giving Kim the assignment and her acceptance of it, Jack finding out and nearly kicking Tony's ass, and nice showdown between Jack and Kim, Saunders making his weird demand known (something or other about giving him a list of in-country spies in a bunch of different countries), the switch taking place, Jack interrogating the hell out of Jane as Kim gets taken by one of Saunders' thugs, Kim shooting her kidnapper before they get away (go Kim!), knowing that Saunders will realise Jane's been taken, tick boom...
Hey look at that, I recapped in a paragraph. Yes Virginia, it is possible! But I didn't do it justice. It was a great episode, truly. But coming so soon on the heels of Chappelle's death (with the presidential shuffling and FOX's notion that pitting 24 against Alias and Sopranos is a good idea), I think this ep lost some of its impact. I think if I'd had a week to digest last week's episode, I would have 'felt' this hour more. Unfortunately I'm still reeling from Ryan's death.
But that's okay. I'm confident I will change my opinion upon further viewing :)
