The California Gold Rush started when Jack Bauer took a piss in a field somewhere near San Francisco.

Yo yo! After another exciting episode of 24 last night, I am back to grace you with my thoughts on it after a week off. As always, we will now go to our trusty character key, though you may notice a few changes this time around...



1) Arlo Glass - Apparently pulling triple duty now that he has to do his old job, BITCH's job, because she sucks, and Chloe's job, because she's running shiz at CTU. He's quite the multi-tasker.

2) BITCH - Was working for the Russians this whole time, not the actual terrorists, so now Jack wants to grill her shit to find out which Russians were behind this whole fiasco the entire time. Clearly President Taylor doesn't want that, so now BITCH finds herself in a whole world of trouble that apparently includes electric chairs, toe snippers and various other torture devices, and some good ol' fashioned waterboarding. Fun!

3) Charles Logan - Has gotten into the mind of President Taylor and is now doing dances up in there. That incredible amount of neck flab can be very persuasive you know. I'm assuming that we'll find out soon that he has some other agenda for "helping" the President out other than just restoring his good name within government circles.

4) Chloe O'Brian - Doing a job at CTU that Bill Buchanan would be proud of, that is until she tried to lead Jack into a trap so that he could be brought in and stopped from bringing this whole scandal to light. Come on Chloe, you know better than that. Bill, get your ghost back to CTU and help her out a bit. RIP sir.

5) Cole Ortiz - After initially following Chloe's orders to capture Jack, he quickly realizes that Jack is always right and decides to help him out. Obviously though, his decision was made pretty easy after Jack had subdued all of his men and put a gun to his head. Jack can be pretty persuasive when he has a gun to your head, you know.



6) Renee Walker - A moment of silence, please.














Thank you.

7) Jack Bauer - As always, he is right about the whole scandal, and is doing everything he can to bring it to light and take down the Russians. Aside from Cole, he literally has no help whatsoever. What does this mean? Jack is going to win, of course. Russia = Dead. All Russians = Dead. President Taylor = Screwed. Charles Logan = Dead.

8) Omar Hassan - Like all of Russia is soon to be, he is dead. I wish the same fate upon his daughter as well. Seriously, could Kyla Hassan be ANY more annoying? I don't think so. I feel sorry for Dalia that she's had to put up with her stupid daughter for all these years.

9) Allison Taylor - Currently caught up in a web of Charles Logan's lies, which means she is royally screwed, because we all know Jack is going to win the day and bring this whole scandal to light. I except a firm bitch slap from Dalia Hassan, as well as a big fat, I TOLD YOU SO!! from Ethan Kanin as she sobs softly at her desk, knowing that her Presidency is slowly spinning down the toilet bowl, only to be deposited in the same septic tank where Logan's and Noah Daniels' Presidencies lie.

10) Ethan Kanin - First of all, he looks pretty sheik and sexy on Rob Weiss' body huh?! Looks like Ethan's been working out, post-heart attack of course. Anyway, he is like the shoulder angel to Charles Logan's shoulder devil for President Taylor, only Taylor consistently listens to the devil. Good for Ethan for sticking to his guns and resigning, only to give Taylor a good jab on the way out by saying the Logan had replaced him. BOOM ETHAN! She hated that comment. Well done, sir.

Other random thoughts from last night's episode:

- Air Force Apache helicopters? Yeah, no match for Jack. PEACE BITCHES!

- I love that Michael Madson's character is just chilling in New York City in a fancy computer room with enough weaponry to furnish a small army. We were all glad that he was able to provide Jack with "various assault rifles," along with everything else he requested, for the mission. Also love that gnarly scar that covers his entire neck. I hope we find out how that happened!

- You may have noticed that the Backpack of Doom had usurped the Satchel of Doom at the end of the episode. Jack always means business, but this time in particular he means even bigger business.

- I enjoyed the random Asian man who has stepped into a dana analyst role of some sort at CTU in the wake of BITCH's shenanigans and Chloe's promotion. He was funny.

  2. "assorted assault rifles"

    that is important because jack would never get choked up on a tongue twister.
