24 - The Morning After the Morning After
Episode 15: 9:00 PM to 10:00 PM
Bruce's Five-Point Review
1. See last week's point #1. Nothing's changed.
If he lets one more terrorist off easy, solely on account of her fantastic rack, I'm done with this show. And, this time, I mean it.
...unless, of course, the terrorist chick in question, with the uberlicious hooters, happens to be featured prominently in future episodes. But, after that, I quit. Really.
2. Natural Gas Facility Security Personnel 101
When a van pulls up to the gate at 8:30 at night and a guy with a foreign accent tells you, "Vee haf a special delifery.", they're terrorists.
Take cover immediately and open fire.
3. Damn it, Jack kissed Audrey. But, that's OK, really, because he's under a lot of stress today, what with the deadly nerve gas and all, so it didn't count. He gets a do-over. Besides, it's pretty obvious he's only making up with her so he'll have someone to tag on the side when he's not knocking boots with Diane back in her double-wide.
4. Gee...they didn't show Jack alive at the end of the show after dragging Bad Guy into the police cruiser while the gas plant was going supernova all around him. Maybe he's dead.
How.
Suspenseful.
Not.
5. Gun Gaffe du Jour: Jack "threatening" terrorist chick with the unloaded gun he took off theU.S. Marshal UN peacekeeper guy they hired to keep an eye on her. That guy was only marginally more effective than a CTU Redshirt.

I'm going to watch the episode again and pay close attention to the credits to see who they've brought on to work as the weapons adviser this year (my money's on Richard Gere). That's twice now that Jack has been seen using a gun with the slide locked back.

When Jack was going through the motions of interrogating Collette, he threatened her several times with the marshall's firearm. Finally, he gets serious and racks the slide (I guess because the marshall was standing around doing a protection detail with an empty chamber) and sticks it directly in her face. No, I was wrong, the marshall (whose name must be Barney) didn't have an empty chamber; he had an unloaded weapon, because there's Jack with no cartridge having popped out when the slide was racked, holding a gun with the slide locked back on an empty magazine.
WTF is going on this season? Have they picked up some new writers and editors who had been laid off by Sponge Bob? And don't even get me started on his reaction to Audrey's story.
