Hour 8

This is YOUR 2-3PM Season 5 of '24' Recap.

Canisters...canisters...canisters...enough with the damn canisters already.

1) Two subplots. First, fat ol' Lynn makes it back inside from his vacant lot beatdown with nary a scratch. Odd. There must be more to come. And First Lady Juggs coughs up more than the necessary information to her aide. Maybe SHE is the one behind it all and Walt Cummings was HER puppet. Huh? Huhhhh??.

2) Naaahh, forget that.

3) For a bunch of terrorists who were always planning to bring the nerve gas to Russia, they sure had a detailed backup plan. They knew the mall, knew the HVAC location, knew of a nearby completely vacant parking deck where they could get the chip installed...

4) And what happened to the rest of the guys at the bike repair shop who went out to lunch? It's 3PM and NONE of them came back. Unless they got whacked off camera, and they just spared us the graphic violence.

5) It's official. Prez. Logan is completely emasculated. He won't even make the decision to combat the nerve gas guys in the mall. My only question is this: Who has Logan's balls mounted on their wall? Mrs. Logan? The Cummings Family? The great Mike Novic? Or do they all get to share them, like the guys on the Stanley Cup Champions each summer?

6) I love Novic. He's a sneaky little bastard, and when I'm president, I want him on my staff.

7) My wife said that Jack was going to go into the mall, and run into Kim. Now that would've been classic. Even when she believes her father is dead, she still manages to screw things up.

8) Jack, impervious to nerve gas from all his years of heroin abuse, takes off his mask to save the 12 year old girl. Alternatively, shutting down the power to the building's HVAC not only stops the flow of more gas - it sucks back in all the gas so nobody else is effected.

9) I love how the bad guy finds a beat up old Chevy, smashes the window, there's glass all over the drivers seat, and he just hops in and drives. I don't want glass shrapnel anywhere in contact with my body - but especially not near my ass.

10) Jack has ruined it all...he didn't give the terrorists the right code. People were killed. One of the suspects is dead. And the guy who stole the car is ON THE MOVE. Lynn wants Jack fired. I want Lynn to go back to the vacant lot and get the shit beat out of him again.
