When sherry appeared in the final scene from the previous episode, was a surprise, because maybe she wanted revenge from his ex husband, but how she is involved with all this?



This is exactly the kind of question that you can expected to be answered in this episode,



Sherry interation with Jack is cool, Jack is totally different from Palmer and Sherry learn that Today.



Alex play is role here too. Aaron has is share of participation too.



Tony and michelle continue to risking their jobs to help Jack to find a way to prove that his cyprous recording is false. CArrie and Chapelle prove not only to be annoying, but a great obstacle for Tony and Jack.



Kim pycho plot is over in this episode too, thanks god, at least this time was funny to see.



What I didn´t Like was the poor ending.

... and it was great. It is just everywhere she goes and whatever she does, there is those little plots she chases. And in this one, I am not even sure what she is really out of. Palmer was right when he said to Jack: "Do not trust her".



So, most of the action goes around Jack and Sherry and that computer hacker who forged the evidence. But also Palmer gets some screentime and again, his storyline is quite interesting. The whole thing with the man who was not to suppose to talk with him but who did and what he said when they take him away. It was beautiful.



And Kim.. one of few episodes I am not annoyed of her? As it was quite clever move.. with phone of her dad and Jack telling her to shot. And again.



So, good episode.

They were introduced back in season 1, but only briefly. And in this episode, we get to see Jack Bauer and Sherry Palmer interact with each other properly. Jack does whatever the hell he wants and Sherry is bossy and demanding, so there was no denying they were going to clash. Their conversations are the highlight of the episode.



Kim returns in this episode too, and surprisingly, the things involving her are quite exciting!! Maybe because she actually kills someone. It was good that she did what Jack told her to do.



I felt sorry for Mike in the previous episode, but now... I'm grrrr at him. I was soo mad that he had Aaron Pierce arrested. Aaron Pierce was so cool, I've called him the loyal one ever since this episode!



Tony and Michelle were also great in this episode. Holy cow, they are soo going to get it for doing that to Chappelle. I'm glad that Tony has redeemed himself, he's really starting to believe in Jack now.



Quote of the hour! Sherry Palmer: "Don't worry. I'll handle agent Bauer. He's very low on the food chain."

With Palmer helpless to do anything, it's up to Jack, Tony, and Michelle to expose the falsity of the Cyprus recording and prevent World War III. And that's no easy feat, what with Chappelle and Carrie at CTU. But hey, the former gets a nice little chloroform treat from Tony, à la Jack, Mason, and the tranq dart from S1. Gut-bustingly hilarious.

Though the story about the chip is now done, Jack's still been able to find a new lead off the damn thing and follow it. After a couple of somewhat slow hours for him, he finally picks up the pace by enlisting the help of Alex Hewitt and Sherry Palmer to help stop the crisis. Sound like a recipe for disaster to you? It sorta is, but by season's end, it all works out. Sorta.

Also in the running is Aaron Pierce, who tries to help Palmer by sneaking him a phone to contact Jack. That turns out to be self-contained, as Novick takes the phone back and places Pierce under arrest.

And by the way, Peter Kingsley is absent in this episode, just as he was in the previous one. Can we say, "no character development"? S2: a sucky season for Bigbads.



Hourly Highlight:

Kim shooting Gary. Yep, Kim's name is under "Hourly Highlight" and it's no joke this time. I should kill myself right now.

The intensity has gone down ever since Jack escaped from custody, but the truth is being revealed piece by piece as the season draws to a fast close. Jack and Sherry have a pretty good on screen connection and I liked there back and froth struggle in this episode for power over the only man who could stop the war. The situation at CTU was pretty exciting this episode, with Ryan being taken out by Tony and Michelle. Kim Bauer actually also had a very good part in this episode and I like how she called her father for help once she had Gary on the ground and in trouble. Aaron Pierce helping out David Palmer was also one of the breakthrough moments of the episode, allowing him to contact Bauer...to which they also have a very strong connection. Overall the episode was very good, one of the stronger episodes with a lot of information in it since the beginning of the season...

Jack finds the man who created the recording found on the chip, but unfortunately Sherry Palmer makes things complicated as she steps in the way of Jack's investigation. Kim goes back to the Matheson residence so she can pick up her things, but an old nemesis comes back to ruin her day. David Palmer gets help from Agent Pierce as he desperately tries to get in contact with CTU. Tony and Michelle goes to extreme length to get Chappelle out of their noses. This episode pumps up the action, it's really exciting, I can't get enough of it. 24 defines action TV.

Another solid episode. I really loved Jack and Sherry's scenes together, they were so well done and the two actors are both so brilliant.



Pros

-It was hilarious seeing Sherry getting yelled at and harassed for a change. The Jack and Sherry chemistry was amazing and it was hard to turn away from these two amazing actors performing at the top of their games. These scenes were the best parts about this episode by far, they were that great.

-You cannot tell me you didn't love Aaron Pierce in this episode. He's the greatest minor character of all-time on this show and is a true American hero. I really like Glenn Morshower.

-Oh my God, did I mention how much I wanted to rip the throats out of Carrie and Chappelle? When he told Tony he was being reassigned...

-Penny Johnson Jerald was stunningly beautiful in this episode.

-Great phone conversation between Sherry and Palmer. I loved their talks in these last few episodes of the season.

-Pretty tense moments with Gary stalking Kim inside his house.

-It was freaking awesome when Tony knocked out Chappelle. Tony's shining moment.

-Very good moment when Jack coaxed Kim into shooting Gary.

-Shocking moment when Sherry was stabbed and a hilarious moment when Jack took off after Hewitt instead of helping her.



Cons

-I hated Alex Hewitt. Stupid character.

-*Incredibly* predictable twist with Gary Matheson going after Kim.

-Contrived way to set the Kim/Gary thing up. I mean...Gary's on the run and the cop was just going to let Kim go inside his house like that? I think not.
