    Accept for the scene at CTU between Nadia and Milo that looked like it came from an episode of Days of Our Lives, this episode is by far the best of the series. Here the audience finally sees a lot of the elements that make 24 the great show that it is. Once again the President is willing to take whatever risk necessary and Jack does what he does best: get the job done. I was hooked throughout this episode and the suspense never let up for a second. I hope this trend keeps up from now on.moreless

    Season six of 24 is the worst season of the show yet. It manages to maintain the entertaining and the atention until the end, but its last episodes from the 13 were truly bad until now. So, when the season is having so dull episodes and harsh moments, a episode like the present is perfect for this time.
    I have no problems with this episodes and, for me, is the truly best episode of the season yet!. Amazing, with a couple of surprises and a exciting battle between Jack and Fayed. Also its great the "Die Hard" line: "Say hello to your brother".
    Perfect done this time: Pure 24. 10/10.moreless

  • Jack Bauer, how I missed you so...

    Well, this season got off to a great start. We introduced a new story line, our reluctant hero, Jack, was more damaged than ever and the fate of the world once again rested on his shoulders. But then that all changed. The show became a White House saga filled with so much political drama that I might as well have been watching a rerun of the West Wing. Although well scripted, it lacked the action that we had grown to love and Jack Bauer was put on the backburner. This episode, however, brought the show back to true form and proved the old adage to be true. Actions do in fact speak louder than words. The storyline was exceptional (although they almost lost me with the Milo tangent), the action was superb, and there was a great cliffhanger at the end. Somewhere along the way, the show's team was reminded of what made the show great to begin with and in my opinion, they couldn't have done it any sooner.

    I think I speak for all the loyal 24 viewers when I say, "Welcome back, Jack Bauer."

    We missed you.moreless

    The greatest episode of S6 swiftly ditches the absurd aura and resolves the previous episode's ridiculous cliffhanger. A power play from the seemingly healthy Wayne reels in new information from [Fayed's country] and plays a big role in ending the suitcase nuke story, whose quality hasn't quite justified its fifteen-episode quantity. And surprise, Wayne isn't all that healthy.
    But the writing, directing, and music still ensure that the midseason climax will be one to remember. All eyes are on Jack as he hatches a sting operation plan to find nukes 4 and 5. As for CTUI don't care and neither should you. It's Jack and Fayed all the f***ing way! If only those two had shared more screentime, their showdown might have been the spectacularest of the spectacular. We'll just have to settle for pretty damn spectacular.
    A few small twists in the sting operation lead up to the most violent fistfight you have ever seen on this program. Regardless of their lack of interaction, Jack vs. Fayed MAKES this season. It's a downer that we won't get anything that mindblowing again in the seven episodes to follow, and it's also lazy that the writers decided to quickly wrap this story up with not one but two nukes left, but dammit, that final clash played out even better in the actual show than it had in my mind since the premiere. I barely care what kind of crap is coming my way at this point. Something about a Chinese guy and a resurrected girlfriend? Bring it! Wait, wha?

    Oh.. what can I say.. This episode was good put became even better in the end - it was the final try to get the nuclear bombs and somehow it was not looking great - they were attacked while transporting Fayed but soon we realize it was a trap, a setup but Fayed gets it too - so he kills agents and gets away but Jack is after him and they get there in time, get nukes.. game over for Fayed..

    And so you start to wonder.. what next.. they have Fayed, nukes.. but there is still many episodes until the end.. and then the phonecall from person you would not believe is alive - Audrey.. those chine man again.. oh.. I am so glad Audrey is alive.. but I am tired of that China storyline.. do they ever get enough?moreless

    • Wayne: (to the Ambassador) I am fully aware of how your country treats political prisoners so don't you dare speak to me of barbarism. Edit
    • Fayed: (snickers) Do you honestly believe you can manipulate me by playing on my vanity? I serve the will of God! Doyle: No, you don't. And if you don't believe me, ask him when you meet him. (draws gun to Fayed's head) Edit
    • Audrey: Jack are you there? Can you hear me? Help me Jack. Please help me. Cheng: Hello Mr. Bauer. Yes, Miss Raines is alive. If you wish for her to remain that way, you will call me back in 10 minutes at 310-597-3781 on a secure line. If you make any attempt to find our location, she dies. Edit

    ADD ALLUSIONS
    • Jack: Say hello to your brother! Most likely taken from the movie Die Hard With A Vengeance when John McClane (Bruce Willis) aims his weapon at a nearby neon light to take down a helicopter carrying antagonist Simon Gruber (Jeremy Irons) and McClane says "Say hello to your brother" referring to the antagonist in the first Die Hard movie, Hans Gruber, (Alan Rickman, Simon's brother) also killed by McClane. Also, when Jack hangs Fayed, it is very similar to the time John McClane hangs Karl with a chain in the first Die Hard movie. Edit
