Awesome ending, could've used the silent ticks at the end after Chloe's statement.

 

They totally just assassinated the President.

Great episode, but it makes me wonder what else the terrorists can possibly do to top blowing up Air Force One.

Do what noone else has done - kill Jack Bauer. For more than an hour, that is.

And now Edgar will get into trouble for neglecting the LAPD Reports mentioning the missing pilot. And then he will snap and eat Michelle.

And then Marwan will plant a bomb in Edgar's belly.

Dude, Kellers not gonna be dead. He's gonna emerge triumphantly from the rubble like 3 or 4 hours from now after everyone's done had him for dead, and he's gonna be pissed that the VP took his office and started screwing around.

 

OB-VI-OUS

If there are 8 episodes left... that means...

 

Only two episodes left until Palmer comes back. Hopefully he doesn't retake the presidency in some lame twist. I wouldn't like that, and I don't think many would either.

The explanation should be simple.

 

After Palmer fired Mike at the end of Season 2, he joined up with Keller because Keller was going to run against Palmer for the presidency. Keller would have put Mike on his staff because few people know Palmer better than MIke Novak. Of course, Palmer dropped out of the race giving Keller a clear path to the White House. Mike was already on his staff though and just stayed on.

 

He wasn't with Keller in Season 3 simply because he wasn't with him that day.

 

I don't know if they'll actually give us an explanation this season or not, but I would be surprised if it was much different from that.

I still want a damn explanation on how Novick got back in his position!!!!!

He's old friends with the VP, apparently. Plus I think the reasons for his dismissal in Season 2 as Chief of Staff were never disclosed.

Awesome episode - great way to kick off the last 8 hours.

 

I kinda wish Keeler hadn't made it, though... oh well.

 

So, any predictions as to what sort of sleazy scheme Mike is cooking up? Or how Palmer's going to come back?

Mike Novick bites the heads off of babies and I couldn't love him more. Anyway, uh, this episode really made me laugh, which was something I needed. From that pathetic couple to Jack's sudden emotional phone call to Audrey to NOVICK SCHEMES~, this was just a fun episode.

 

Plus there was the way Jack killed the bald/ugly terrorist, with the can/lighter/grass followed by, "Hey!",... followed by baldie's death. It's always beautiful to see something from Mitchell on this show.

Loved this episode. It reminded me of season one old school suspense. For a minute I forgot about the whole nuclear thing and was just transfixed into the classic cat and mouse, evade and hide sequence. Great suspense. Probably my vote for most entertaining hour of TV this year yet.

Mike has something going on with the new Vice President (the youngish looking guy who spoke after the new Prez). As Mike walked past him, they exchanged a little 'We're evil' nod together. It makes sense too, the new Prez won't be able to handle the pressure, Keeler is in critical condition, so this new VP can become the head honcho.

 

Still, it's a bit of a stretch to believe this guy and Mike hatched up this plan in the hour since Air Force One went down, unless they had PRIOR KNOWLEDGE OOOO.

I think Novick and The New VP are evil allright, but on a different level from The Terrorists evil. It's quite evident from only 1 ep That The New President has no backbone. I think Novick and The New VP will manipulate him to their needs. Pretty good ep, as Marwan escaping with a few pages of The Football wasn't nearly as surprising as The Yuppie Couple actually surviving was.

Where The Hell Is Heller and Behrooz?

Heller is back doing his job... somewhere and Behrooz is being held... somewhere. The longer he's off TV the better, as far as I'm concerned.

I think Behrooz is sleeping off this long day in a shallow grave. Poor Behrooz.

I liked how Jack had to call Audry to explain what he meant by "blocking things out" etc. It really added to his character.

 

And I also liked the beginning of this storyline with the New President and Novick because now there going back to the good president storyline similar to Season 1 & 2 which divides the attention and not all on Jack (which isnt bad) but its still good anyway.
