  • Huge twist #1

    10
    "Perfect"
    By BigDyno, May 30, 2010 Report Abuse
    Until now, the show seemed to be jumping around without following a cohesive path, mainly with Jack's storyline. The keycard and Penticoff? Ultimately kinda pointless. While those first five episodes are still interesting to watch, this sixth one is where the season gets really, really juicy. This hour starts the first big story arc for Jack; namely, following Gaines' orders. For the first-time viewer, having Gaines phone Jack kinda throws one off and raises some confusion and intrigue, and it paves the way for a few episodes of a new, internal kind of conflict for Jack.
    The Palmer storyline also becomes much more interesting here, as the rumor about Keith killing Lyle Gibson turns out not to be a rumor at all. And the revelation about Sherry's involvement in the cover-up raises the tension something fierce and lays the groundwork for some great personal scenes between the two characters.
    This episode also contains the show's first major plot twist that has heavy repercussions on future episodes. After the scene with Gaines contacting Jack, this twist (along with the subsequent insane murder scene) REALLY throws one off. In later seasons we would probably expect something like this, but back when S1 first aired, it was a true "WTF?!" moment.
    The sun has finally risen in Los Angeles, Gaines' plan is all falling into place, and the bright morning hours of S1 are about to begin. Can you deeg eeeet?!! I dunno what that was.

    Hourly Highlight:
    Said insane murder scene.moreless

    "Great"

    Kim scenes with that guy continue to serve as a filler, to fill the episode. Trying to bury a guy while they talk didn't seem to be very interesting.

    Jack side was better. He and Teri are together but not for long. This time, this Jack situation seems to be the best, since Gaines has his daughter and can demand anything from him. The details were very good.

    We have a turnig point this time, that was unexpected, and this make a good ending, since we now learn that this is not only Jack daughter that Gaines are after.

    Palmer plot continues to grow and became very interesting, when he discover that his wife's involvement.moreless

    When last episode was somehow getting to one certain level and certain point where things did not sounded too catching and we had seen all it, then this episode turns everything again upside down. First the moment when other girl's father kills her - that was like what. And when Teri gets call from Nina and we learn what is really going on - that was wow.. They really can turn something what looks quite exciting even more exciting. All the thing going on with Jack and the other person who follows him and called him and now send him to CTU.. this episode really added some new motion.moreless

    Everything is slowly being revealed! Amazing episodes and I can't believe my hunch was right... I thought something was off about Jannet's "dad". A few scenes were a bit too long although of course the reason for this is quite obvious. Good thing Terry kept her cool when she found out the truth about her new best friend otherwise she would have been way too vulnerable! In general, I thought this episode in particular was better than the other ones just because things are finally started to tie in together and the plot is thickening, thus getting way more interesting to watch.moreless

  • Trivia

    ADD TRIVIA
    • When Jack asks Teri if Janet is out of surgery yet she replies "yea, the police are here". Then he says "call me when she gets out". Two things: one she is clearly not out of surgery, and two how does he know that if Teri said she was? Edit
    • Jack uses his cell phone while in the hospital, despite the fact that cell phones are known to interfere with hospital equipment and can be potentially dangerous in such a setting. Edit
    • When the fake Alan disconnected the monitor, it should have rung an alarm in the ICU nurse's station. If, for some bizarre reason, not then, then definitely when Janet's heart rate started to fluctuate -- after all, she had nearly died recently. In the aftermath of a near-fatal incident such as hers, real ICU nurses would have been monitoring her very closely. Edit

    ADD NOTES
    • The new IT guy is called Milo Pressman (played by Eric Balfour). In the movie Stand By Me (1986), also starring Kiefer Sutherland, a scrap yard owner appears bearing the same name. Edit
    • Up to this point, Fox had been showing repeats of each episode on Friday evenings at 9:00 P.M. in an effort to allow viewers to catch up on missed programs. Fox decided to stop the re-runs due to bad ratings, though they continued to rebroadcast each week's episode on their cable outlet, F-X. Edit
    • Kiefer Sutherland appeared on The Tonight Show on November 12, and forgetfully gave away the entire ending of this episode. Edit
