So, this started with the a great play - Jack brother tries to kill Jack and their father but they manage to get off and get Graem.. so it is from there to find out what he hides - and what he hides is a big secret - he reviles that he ordered the assassination of Palmer, Almeida and Dessler... and how Jack reacts.. that was stunning - we have seen him being angry but not like that.. He is ready to kill his brother..

But I think even more surprising is the end when it comes out that Jack father is behind it too - and it has all been an act..

There is a lot to like in this episode. Despite the fact that we have seen it numerous times in this series, it's always good to see Jack doing his job and getting info from suspects. That is one part of the show that is consistently exciting and very entertaining. I had a bit of trouble with the coincidence involving Morris' capture. Just as he finds out he has been set up McCarthy shows up and captures him. Talk about perfect timing! Peter MacNicol over acts a little but overall this is a very good hour of "24." Watch it.

The Graem arc comes to a close. Though I'd barely consider it an arc; pretty much all he ever did was sit around on the phone with Logan or get pushed around by his smarter, tougher, prettier brother. So how 'bout just…Graem comes to a close?
Jack escapes his predicament and heads back for a little brother-to-brother confrontation. More pharmaceutical torture courtesy of CTU? Why not?! As usual, it doesn't prove all that useful, at least not for anything regarding S6. But hey, Jack now knows how wrong Henderson was about the whole "touch them/touch you" thing.
So the Sandra plotline turns out to have been less significant than originally thought. But as much as I despised it to begin with, I cannot discredit it completely. One phone conversation with Wayne sparks a plot development that'll take the DC storyline quite a ways through the following hours.
And McCarthy finds a second engineer, whose identity CTU tries to decrypt. In the meantime, Morris gets a suspicious alert about his brother being exposed to radiation. I wonder where this is going…?
An alright episode apart from the excellent Jack plot. A big loose end from last season is finally tied up here, even if Jack doesn't make any progress in stopping Fayed. After multiple seasons without any mention, not only are Jack's other relatives introduced, but some of them are Bigbad material. If the big S5 scheme to make Jack the assassination patsy reeked of cockamamity to you (no, that's not a real word), then take great satisfaction in this, the most rational explanation that Joel Surnow could come up with!

Hourly Highlight:
Graem's confession/Jack's conniption.

Okay, so Graem's the bad guy, right? Right. But does it stop there? Apparently not. Though this episode did have some good plot twists, especially regarding Jack's father and brother, the entire plotline still doesn't appeal that much to me. I like 24, I think it's brilliant, but there's just something about this episode I don't like. The entire family thing is a little weird and seems a bit off-beat to me. Anyways, the Morris thing I kind guessed. I love when I'm right, but at the same time... You'd think Morris - or ANYONE else at CTU for that matter - would have pointed out that he had the qualifications and should not be allowed out of the building. I mean, terrorist is looking for someone to arm bombs, you are able to arm them, you get a weird call saying your brother is in the hospital bc he was somewhere where he wasn't supposed to be... You can't verify the information... Overall, it was a good episode, and the particular twists involving Morris and Jack's dad were nicely done.
