i said this in that previous thread you mentioned, but it warrants repeating.
Jack bauer needs a damn skimatic (spelled wrong i know), some big eyed girl on the phone telling him what to do, 13 satlellites, gps with navigation, and approval from the president. Vic needs a phonebook and an urge. if vic took bauer's phone, jack would be royally F'd.
Here's transcript of the phoe conversation beteen jack and cloey (i don't care if that's right thats what i'm calling her)
Jack: Cloey, there's an angry bald man with a phonebook, what do i do.
Cloey: That's Vic Mackey. He's like a grizzly bear, if you lie down and play dead he will leave...
Jack: Okay
(Several seconds of silence)
(Loud thumps and Jack Bauer shouting in Pain)
(Moments of silence)
Jack: uuurrrggghhh, ooohhhh. I think he ruptered my spleen with the phonebook... Cloey, what the hell??!!!
Cloey: I did what you said, can you take the gun away from my face please??
Shane: Sure thing darlin', you did great
Cloey: ASSH_LE!!! Jack! Shane's gone, are you okay?!
(Shane sticks his head in the window)
Shane: Oh yeah, I brought you some food...
(Loud bang, end of transmission)
