24

Here begin the final six hours, heavily revised from their first drafts—apparently the original plan for this episode was to have Jack learn of Tony's once-again-treacherous ways only ten minutes in. I hesitate to feel outright relief over that change, since I don't know what they had in mind for the remaining time. But damn me if the final draft doesn't put that time to good use!
Because FBI perimeters are worth a crap, Tony and Galvez spend the hour relying on strategy and deception rather than a magic disappearing act. Can you imagine a whole episode where Marwan actually puts effort into a getaway? Nah, who wants intrigue when we could just blow stuff up? Not to say that nothing blows up this hour; in fact, blowing stuff up is a major part of Tony's plan. But here it's played for suspense rather than the sake of Hollywood explodiness.
Character-wise…nothing special. Hodges' coconspirators show up and be all mysterious. And with Moss dead, Jack tries to comfort Renee and kinda makes with the awkward romantic motions (though he still comes off cooler than I ever did, and none of those girls were in mourning OR as pretty as Annie Wersching).
It seems that the strike let the writers remember that things don't necessarily have to progress rapidly to make for excitement. If only they always worked this way. And I'm sure I won't be taking those statements back anytime soon.

Hourly Highlight:
Tony the pickpocket, a.k.a. Jack the seizing weirdo.

The First thing to be said is "Tony, say it ain't so". Yes it looks like Tony is working for whoever is behind everything. He shot himself to make it look like he was a victim in the gun battle that killed Larry. The Starkwook soldier working with Tony gets away with the canister of the bio-agent. Tony tells him to stay under cover and he will help him get away.



At the FBI Jack is getting sicker and having to use more of the drug to mask the symptoms of the bio-agent, but continues to help as much as he can.



Kim Bauer comes to say goodbye to Agent Walker and agent walker tries to convince her to stay and help her father. Kim states that her father is hard-headed and want's to die on his own terms.



After learning of Larry Moss's death, Agent walker sends a team of agents to sweep the area for the man that killed Agent Moss. Jack joins Agent Walker in the helicopter much to her objections, but Jack is Jack.



The search starts for the man who killed Agent Moss. Tony has him setup explosives in a building to lure as many agents into the building and blow it up.



The agents are lured into the building and at the last minute Jack realizes what is going on and tries to get them out but he is to late. Agent Walker is OK. Tony helps the man out of the building with the bio-agent and one an ambulance where he gets away.



During all of this Jonas Hodges gets a visit from who is suppose to be his lawyer but is an operative for the people he works for. She gives him his only way out, which is a capsule that will cause cardiac arrest and kill him. He takes the capsule. On his way to the FBI for questioning, he takes the capsule. The Soldiers transporting him reroute the van to the hospital.



This was a very busy episode and is starting to tie the final piece of the plot together.

After last episode's betrayal of Larry Moss by Tony, I was wondering what would be the immediate fallout. The surprises came in a couple of ways. I wasn't expecting Tony to stick around, nor did I expect the "higher ups" above Hodges to start making their moves. As a dedicated fan, I'm sure I speak for many when I say I was glad to have Tony back. Shocked to see him as a bad guy and relieved to see that was all a hoax. So, of course again I am shocked to see Tony committ this act that seems to indicate he was playing everyone all along. Of course Tony could still be hunting down the conspirators at the top but time will have to tell. It was good to have Jack back in the field, because almost immediately he started to prove why he's an extremely capable agent. Once again we see Jack struggling through injury as he tries to complete his mission and I'm intrigued to see what comes of his ultimate confrontation with an injured Tony. This was a solid episode, and everyone was put in a position to have to face some serious emotional weight. 24 has long attracted an amazing cast, and I hope some of these characters survive to next season.

Jack and Renee goes to an operation to find Robert GAlvez and the cannister. But things go wrong when Galvez plants a C4 inside a building where the FBI agents are.



9.5/10- Emotional yet action packed. Larry s death will be remebered and the building exploding will be remembered.



Tony remains undercover to try and save the cannister from destroyal but is later caught by Jack.



9/10- Tony is well kept undercover from his hidden betrayal... but a little mistake on a name given to jack through the lead to the result to the attack on the white house will break them apart from friendship forever. Loved the faceoff between jackandtony. keep it up.



Jonas HOdges is given an ultimatum from one of his bosses.



8/10- the whole jonas hodges plot is starting to heat up, he was one of the top villains of 24.

Presentation Phase - » (8/10). Interesting beginning, also a new villain or two was presented. Renee suffers with Larry death and when Jack knew about that he decide to help, tony source was only the setup for the ending of this episode.



Complication Phase - » (8/10). This time is the bad guys that have a problem about escaping, more than FBI recovering the last canister. The problem is attractive and Tony seems more intelligent than the last seasons, he seems more like Jack.



Climax Phase/Ending - » (9/10)*2. Jack and Tony confrontation was interesting but tony motives continue to be a mystery. At least, this ending was a little different.



Time and Scene Management - » (9/10). Like the last episode, was hard to catch unnecessary scenes in this episode, but for example, wasn´t necessary to make Jonas supposed die like that, an explosion would made it, but the writers decided to explore Jonas a little.



Plot Details/Holes- » (10/10). I couldn´t notice any flaws or anything that could put this episode in the trash. The timing of Jack illness is the only thing that was too convenient. Jack figuring out Tony too fast was normal for Jack unique intelligent.



Surprises/Shocks/Twists - » (8/10). Kim has a great surprise, this was really nice.



Suspense/Tension - » (8/10). The tension here was very good, one more time the writers could end things here, but they decided to explore more Tony being a villain and making his plans.



Drama - » (9/10)*2. Olivia has her reasons to be angry. Jack worried about Renee, that was nice, her death could be shocking. Jack couldn´t believe that Tony has changed so much, nice expression and acting there. Hodges has his own drama, that was nice if he is really dead.



What I liked -» Jack confronting Tony.



What I Didn´t Liked -» Hodges scenes.



This episode continues to execute the same technique that was used in the previous episodes, which consist in making a way to end things in the same episode, but when the ending arise, they go back to the same position. This was well done in this episode.

What a turn up for the books, eh? After the 24 fan community hummed and hahed about the logistics of Tony's turn last week, worrying their collective asses off that it would fall flat and read as little more than a desperate attempt by the writing staff to keep the momentum going by incorporating some unnecessary shock value into the show (and I will admit that, yes, I had my doubts too... in fact, I still do), '2.00am - 3.00am' turns around and smacks us all in the face with a top class set of scripts that magnifies the tension, amplifies the suspense and sets the action counter to overload. There's so much interesting stuff going on in this one it's almost too good to be true and the fact that Olivia and Janis barely get a look-in only helps to strengthen matters. So there's the imprisonment of Jonas and the visit from the lawyer lookalike (a truly bizarre plot development that) which adds oodles of intrigue to the plot, making throwaway references to 'the group' and their various motives, how Starkwood shouldn't have 'shown its hand' and so on and so forth. While I'd hate to see the end of Jon Voight's time on the show at this stage, given that he plays such an incredibly good part, his acceptance of the suicide pill adds an extra level of depth to his character and nicely juxtaposes against the medical emergency that we subsequently see occur with Bauer towards episode's end. Carlos Bernard does a magnificent job as duplicitous Tony, trying to keep everything under wraps, and it's a commendable writing decision to have the narrative structured on Almeida's perspective as we get to witness how he disguises his actions and his frustrated reactions when they begin to fall apart. The sequences in the abandoned building are astonishingly well done and genuinely horrifying in places: the explosions are immense and the chaos that ensues in their aftermath is excellently realised. And then, of course, there's the confrontation with Jack which oozes antagonistic chemistry and bodes well for the inevitable showdown that is to come. Let's hope it's the truly epic one that these two deserve. Credit must be given elsewhere to Annie Werschung for hitting one out of the park in Renee's response to Larry's death and, yet again, to the writing staff for creating a palatable sense of mystery throughout the hour. As we don't yet understand Tony's allegiances, and the lawyer's hints at the nature of the group with whom we are now dealing are distinctly cryptic, the viewer is kept guessing as to the truth of what is actually going on. Yes, there are some further glimpses with the appearance of Will Patton but even this is fairly brief and doesn't give much away. The writers are keeping their cards firmly to their chests and it works very well, encouraging us all to return for more in the weeks to come. Let's just hope we don't have to see very much of little Terry as well.

Jonas calls his attorney to the White House but a couple people drug her and a woman that looks exactly like steals her identity. She gets accessed in to the White House where she meets Jonas, she's not happy about how the day's events have turned out so far and offers a way out for Jonas; a red pill. Swallows it and he'll die a clean death of cardiac arrest, but he'll leave his family at peace and Starkwood's reputation intact.



The FBI learns about Larry's death and now Renee is in charge she prepares a team to find the missing suspect and canister, Jack also tags along. Tony tries to cover up the incident by shooting himself and explaining it to the FBI. While trying to find the fleeing fugitive Tony attempts to extract his Suspect friend, but when this proves impossible mainly due to the secured perimeter, he orders his accomplice to rig a nearby building with the remaining C-4, and then lure as many agents as possible to their horrific deaths.



Renee and Jack question Tony again about the incident and the story doesn't add up, she immediately doubles the security. Tony's pal disguises himself as an agent into the wired building. Jack stays behind at the command post, asking to overlay the agent trackers onto a map. When the suspect/agent is found to be way off the grid, he tells Renee to evacuate immediately… except the building blows before many of the agents can escape. Some are dead and some are missing, but Jack insists they hold the perimeter so the suspect cannot escape. This is when Tony casually enters and extracts his friend himself. Jack discovers Tony's lie as he goes to confront him about a Mr Vincent Carter, Jack points the gun at him but begins seizing before he can pull the trigger.

Well at least that statement is true enough for Tony anyway. I had a lot of questions about what Tony's true objectives might have been and after this episode I finally got a better understanding.



As Hodges said previously, that he was just one cog in the wheel wasn't exactly too far off. As it turns out Hodges wasn't even supposed to be utilizing the virus and has been operating outside the authority of his superiors. That's where Tony comes in. Utilizing a man named Galvez, Tony plans to return at least one canister to the people who he works for. It resolved some of the questions that I had about why Tony still is on the other side, though I still question that the group that he works for could have done much more damage with the CIP device. For that matter, I still don't understand why Tony warned Jack about the attack on the White House, but I might have missed that.



Upon hearing that Larry is dead both Renee and Jack head out to seal off a parimeter so that Galvez can't escape. Renee takes it exactly as expected, and isn't quite happy when Jack gives her advice on what to do, which makes sense considering how Jack hasn't seemed phased by anything he's had to do today. Tony didn't seem to happy to have Jack around, even less so when Jack noticed flaws in Tony's story. Tony had Galvez set up a trap for the FBI where the agents and Renee are lured, and that way Galvez could escape. Jack soon figures out that it is a trap, but not before the building is blown up. Galvez is able to hide away in an ambulence with the canister and hijacks said ambulence which was pretty cool too. While Galvez was making his get away, Jack finally put together the pieces and turned his gun on Tony. Unfortunatey Jack is not quite unstoppable anymore and has a seizure allowing Tony enough time to escape. Doesn't seem like there is any going back for Tony anymore and I'm hoping for a pretty awesome showdown at the end of the season.



Nothing really happened this week at the White House after Hodges arrest. It was pretty cool that the people broke into the laws house just to give a message to Hodges. Unfortunately, she's not there to help Hodges and only gives Hodges a warning and a suicide pill. Out of all of the villians today Hodges has been the best and seemed like this would be his final hour, but as it seems he is still alive, at least long enough for him and Jack to meet. It was a fairly suspensful hour this time around. It didn't seem realistic that Renee would die this episode seeing as how that only leave us with Janis at the FBI, who really doesn't seem to do much anyway. I'm still questioning what the end game is for Tony and the people he is working for, as it still seems like they could have done far more damage with anything else that they have had in there possession, or even Hodges' plan. In addition, is it really meaningful to introduce a new villain this late in the season too? Or perhaps will this day continue over to Season 8?

I knew that after last week's episode, it would be tough to follow it up. So far, this season has done a great job with keeping the excitement level very high, so I was waiting to see how they would follow up Larry's death. And as it turns out, they did an excellent job and ended up turning Tony into even more of a villain than he was earlier.



Watching him stand over Jack while he had a seizure, holding his medicine above him as if to taunt him, was almost as chilling as watching him choke the life out of Larry. The episode had great pacing, and let everything build up right until the point where the building was blown up. For a second, I thought Renee was going to die too. It wouldn't surprise me, based on what's been done this season.



I didn't like the Kim plot as much, but I like what they've done with her character. More grown up character means more grown up plot lines. I'm intrigued as to where the writers will make her go from here.



Season 7 has definitely exceeded expectations. Some may say that after Season 6, it wasn't that hard to exceed in the first place, but still.. For a show that's been on seven years, I'd say the season is going pretty well.

Great esidoe. This episode rally surprised me. I didn't see another bad guy coming and i think Will Patton is a great choice. He gave a great performance as the bad guy in Postman! we still don't know if Tony is really bad or is he doing this in order to get to the people behind Jonas. John Voight as a renagade meember of a bigger conpiracy was a good twist and I think made a lot of sense. I think that 24 is a great show, it will never be the 1st or 2nd season again (or for that mattter the 3rd & 4th) but still it's a great show and it keeps me watching it every week and waiting for the next epsiode which is nothing I can say on any other show!

Carlos Bernard (Tony Almeida) deserves credit for his ability to convince viewers that he has gone over to the bad side... if he was ever good at all.







Last week I wondered how they were going to explain Tony's sudden 'bad boy' turn and I must admit it was believable at that. It even turned out better than I'd imagined it would.

It wasn't a surprise that Tony shot himself; why would Galvez (The Shooter) kill Larry and leave Tony alive 'in good condition'!



Despite all the other plots; Hodges, Jack an Kim, I think this episode really dealt with Larry's death which was rather a graphic appeal when the camera was placed on his lifeless body, smothered to death (unknown to the Medics at the time)...



I really missed Larry here, I really didn't like him, but he was missed. His death was mercilessly committed, like he'd been stabbed in the back and blinded from one side. It was really Renee that made me let out a sigh of grief (Thumbs up to Annie Wersching for giving us a beautiful performance). I truly believed that she loved Larry, probably even more than a partner would. Though why shouldn't she be the one to alert his ex-wife of Larry sudden death, was it that she was too depressed or was it something more? How much did Larry mean to Renee and vice versa?



Another person we must give credit to is Kiefer Sutherland's performance as Jack Bauer. I clapped when Jack took charge again, I really loved watching him on the field; he has such on screen presence. Even though it was recognized that his health was diminishing, I believed that Jack had the will power to do anything he put his mind to.

It also looked like in less that 24 hours, Renee Walker has grown on Jack a bit. :)

Following her on the field, being her somewhat shoulder to lean on and extra eyes on the field.



Jack - "...that was why I always worked alone"



...because the people he worked with, the ones he were close to,was always hurt... because of his lifestyle, he lost everyone he's cared about... Bill Buchanan, Kim Bauer, Terri Bauer...



Hey, what did you think about Kim naming her daughter after her mother. Maybe the '...with age brings reason' theory was proven here. As Kim grew older, she realized that all she had in her life was family and that would mean forgiving her father, accepting her mother's death and moving on with her life by naming her baby after her mother... a sign of life and new beginnings... maybe. It seemed like Kim suffered just as much loss as Jack, but at least she learned to settle down... that baby did even look like Kim a bit :) didn't you think... maybe I'm reaching.



Elisha Cuthbert's presence somewhat gave Jack hope for his depreciating condition... well maybe his sanity. After Kim visited her dad he was able to function a bit more efficiently. That probably didn't work well for Tony who was trying to cover his tracks, and Jack knew how to work the field better that any of those FBI's.



Renee owed Jack a big one for detecting the trap... probably not in the nick of time, but no one else noticed the anomaly. Still Galvez managed to escape with the weapon with Tony's help.



I pondered on a question; "Would Tony have the guts to kill Jack if he 'got int he way?'", I guess Tony was ruthless enough to do so. Imagine he waited until Jack was most vulnerable.

Jack was already dying Tony, couldn't you be a bit sensitive!

He was actually going to kill a dying man, The Irony!



I cringed when Jack began seizing on the floor unable to cure himself, unable to speak. It looked as though Jack was trying to shout out the words, when the officers came to help Jack. (..wait Jack helped them, so they helped him in return, but for how long?) Like Jack was trying his best to scream or shout it out as Tony stood over him.



"LOOK! IT'S HIM, TONY"S YOUR BAD GUY! LOOK! LOOK! HE'S BAD"



...but he couldn't. Instead, Tony stood above his vulnerable self with a smirk replacing what should have been concern for a friend.



President Allison Taylor had little scenes here, as well as Olivia. Strangely enough I loved Olivia's sneered stares towards Hodges, like she really hated him! "Don't think you're getting away with what you did to our country you smug *******!"



How about that Attorney switcharu, rendering Hodges' attorney on conscious. (There's been a lot of that going around).

That conversation in Hodges' cell was well executed, but why kill Hodges alone what about his partner, didn't he pose a threat as well... maybe Hodges knew more.



24 has given us a few more twists than we should count, but this installment was well executed and well written. The Acting was flawless for such a brilliant cast.

I am still in awe, by Renee's tear that slid down her face when she received the news of Larry's death... she showed real strength.



Definitely not what I expected! (I mean that in the best way possible).

Maybe a lot of people won't agree with me, but this episode was a 10; after last week's episode I tought that this would slow down a little bit, but it didn't. It manage really good the tension, the characters, and the mood.



I was really scared when Renee went with the rest of the FBI agents to that building, it was a really good scene. But the best, the ending: Jack finding out that Tony lied to him, but due to his disease being unable to do something about it... Kiefer really deserves a Golden Globe or something for his work on the last 3 hours. And finally, as always, loving Jonas and every single line he delivers. The conspiracy is growing and I like it. Tony is part of it and, letting aside the wird sensation, I am starting to liking it too.

This is the first episode following the final break in the "24" production schedule. While all the episodes were planned out ahead of time, the producers apparently felt that the plans for the final six episodes weren't strong enough. One can only imagine that it has much to do with ensuring that the payoff for the end of the previous episode hits all the right notes. It also means that these final episodes will be a bit more scrutinized as a result.



After the stunning (and confusing) revelation regarding Tony at the end of the previous episode, the writers certainly have a lot to explain. They certainly make sure that his actions are covered, and they remind the audience that Tony's sudden intel on the attack on the White House was rather abrupt and poorly explained at the time. If Jack (and Agent Walker) had been in better shape, he might have recognized that Tony's explanations didn't quite add up. (Even so, Tony's regret over Jack's condition seems genuine.)



The subsequent argument between President Taylor and Olivia sounds much like the previous arguments between the president and Ethan, so much so that it seems to place Olivia in suspicion. She doesn't seem to want Jonas in a position to talk to the FBI, and if she is implicated, her attempt at stalling could have been designed to give the conspiracy time to eliminate Jonas from the picture. That turn of events was hardly surprising, but effective.



Jack's medical situation continues to be well-depicted, so much so that it seems rather hard to believe that Jack would be allowed out of anyone's sight and anywhere near the field. At the very least, it puts Jack in the proper psychological state to give Agent Walker a bit of experienced advice about losing a partner. She doesn't want to hear it, but it also serves to remind the audience of how much Jack has lost, and what he could potentially regain. His medical condition is the source of his self-realization, just as the current terrorist threats give the government reason to reconsider the importance of counter-terrorism.



It's always seemed like Agent Walker was in some kind of relationship with Agent Moss, and that it was part of the tension that was between them as a result of Walker's defense of Jack Bauer, and the same undertones seem to come into play here. It might also explain Walker's apparent interest in Jack. Could this be a part of her personality? If so, it's not a new idea, but it's an unfortunate one. Agent Walker has always had the potential to be a strong character in her own right, without some odd tendency for relationships with men in authority. (That's a little too close to the "Agent Scully" mode for comfort!)



It's a little surprising that Kim wouldn't take the initiative and opt to provide the bone marrow for Jack's treatment on her own, but at least her rationale is consistent with her relationship with her father. It's a bit disappointing, however, in light of Kim's family and the revelation that she has a daughter (named Terri, no less). In essence, she wasn't entirely honest with him, and didn't tell him something that could have changed his mind. It certainly doesn't help to redeem her character at this point.



It doesn't take long for Jack to put all the pieces together and figure out that Tony is working for the enemy. His confrontation with Tony is nice symmetry with the opening episodes for the season. Unfortunately, Jack's medical condition gets in the way, so the real confrontation is delayed for the future.

I agree with Scarlett024 on this one. The plot of 24 is way out of hand. In the earlier seasons when the show was amazing, there would be one MAYBE two plot twists. Now it seems like there are 15-20! I believe that this is because they have done all they can do with the show. How many forms of terrorism are left? And they have killed off Jack a couple times just to bring him back, and now Tony too.



I am completely lost with the whole white house storyline. I have no clue who the true bad guys are, nor do I care anymore. And Jon Voight's acting is deplorable. I understand they are trying to make it more of a fast-paced show with all these twists, but really it is just bogging down the main plot. They need to simplify it again. Then it will be great. Right now they are aiming it at simple-minded people who can't understand anything deeper than an explosion and some shaky camera tricks. The early seasons were targeted more towards people interested in intrigue and modern espionage.



I don't know if I am going to watch this show anymore.

Wow, this was just a great episode. It comes off the realization that Tony is an **** and killed Moss and Kim leaving Jack to die and then it goes into more crazy reveals and action. When Jack went on scene I knew that he would figure Tony out, but I just didn't figure that it would end like that. Tony is such a bastard! Seriously, he killed Moss, blew up agents, and then took Jack's meds. At least, I guess, he didn't kill Jack in cold blood... actually, I have to say that Tony is a great bad guy... but back to the point... and now we find out that Kim has a kid which is so sad! She has to change her mind (well, obviously because Jack has to live to be able to have the next season). The other reveal was the top bad-guy which we don't have a name for or anything. I really like the actor so I can't wait to see more of him. Overall, just a great episode. It was action packed with great character moments... just a great episode.

Oh man, so I used to LOVE this show. I own all the earlier seasons, but I won't buy this season. So far this season there has been only one episode that was good (and I can't even remember which one is was).



The plot lines have gotten far too complex. Bad complex. Is he good or bad? He's good! wait, he's bad! wait he's good! wait...



Enough already! It seems as though the writers just don't know what to do with Tony anymore and they are simply using him as filler for the remaining seasons. Oh, and how about this? "We know nothing about your disease, Mr. Bauer, but we do know X,Y, and Z. But we've never seen anything like this, but yet we somehow know A, B, and C. Here, take these meds even if we don't know what they will do." Huh???



Sorry this is a bit rambling, but then again this season of 24 is rambling, so maybe this is fitting!

Tony. Oh, Tony. I used to love you. When did you become such a bad liar? He is supposed to not remember anything from the "ambush" (is the supposed one person still considered an ambush?) yet he suddenly remembers a ridiculous amount of details. It reminds me of that one "Friends" episode where Phoebe is trying to teach Joey how to be a better liar. Every lie Joey tries to spin ends up with a raccoon stealing something. That's what happens when you give too many details lying! Tony! Seriously! And Tony, you do realize the ME will tell that Larry was smothered, right??? Why didn't you just shoot him (or have your friend shoot him) as that would have been a much better cover-up.



Let's see. Plot. I hate this whole plot with the president. And the thing with her son. In the movie they showed the son's friend dying. And since then they have said that it was the son that died. Continuity??!!??!! I have discussed this with a number of other fans and this confused them too. And the baby's name is Terri?! L-A-M-E. Since working at CTU every time Kim is on she makes it clear that she wants to forget her past and never see Jack again. "But Daddy I was searching for you! And I named my daughter after my mom who I want to forget about."



And yes, I know this is off topic, but whatever happened to President Charles Logan??? Last we saw him mid season 6, he was in an ambulance. Is he dead or alive? At the beginning of this season they referred to him in the present tense, which makes me think he's alive, but with these writers who knows?!

This episode was another great installment in the best season since the second or third. Tony's intentions still aren't revealed to it's fullest, but I'm extremely happy that he's turned out to be the big bad of the season, and it kind of reminds of season 1 a little bit with Nina. This episode carried a lot of intense moments, the biggest being that Tony allowed the apartment building blow with Renee inside, and him telling Jack that he never wanted to hurt him and that he wished he'd stayed out of it from the beginning. It is a little disappointing however that him being bad pretty much al but confirms a death sentence from Jack as his fate.

The episode was good but not great. The plot wasn't really furthered at all and we didn't really learn very much that we didn't already know. One major thing that we learn is that Jack is a grandfather though I don't know that it is exceptionally relevant at the moment.



The basic plot is Tony is trying to help his man escape with the bio-agent and Jack along with the FBI is trying to make sure that it doesn't get out. By the end of the episode Tony's man escapes with the bio-agent thanks to some creative planning by Tony, and Jack learns that Tony is the one who betrayed them but he has a seizure and is unable to stop him from escaping.

Ok.. this was good episode.. I adored the motion, excitement and the way it was going. I think I am little bothered that Tony is acting bad but at least I am still convinced there is something behind it.. again.



Anyway, this episode really had mostly two said - really intense action - I mean the explosion, the search.. and then the emotional side. Walker in her position.. the way she took Larry's death.. Brilliant scenes and telling Jack not to tell her how and what to feel. Brilliant.



And ofcourse the end. It was sure Jack will soon figure it out that it had to be Tony but.. the way it went down.. those lines, I adored the scene... I am eager to see Tony's next move.
