Ok I guess

It wasn't a bad episode. One thing that annoyed me about it was when Jack was chasing yer man after he jumped through the hospital window. My grandmother could have caught him.

That was easily the most annoying part of the episode, shoot him in the leg ffs. Then letting him get inside the pressure chamber... *sigh*

Yep, Jack should have totally knee-capped him, he'd still be well enough to be interrogated and probably more willing to talk without CTU needing to "persuade" him further .

I'm guessing that CTU is going to locate mommy (they already know who the dude is and that he is American born) and have her persuade him (or Jack will threaten to blow her brains out ) to come out of the pressure chamber peacefully... As we saw in this episode, he still has a soft spot for mom...

Dana... ugh. Do we really need to spend even more time on the aftermath of her dumb-a**erry? I wish she had drowned in the swamp or something when dumping the bodies...

And how is she going to talk to him - with Marcus smashing the intercom and already working on manual detonation.

Jack should just ramp up the pressure in the chamber.. :eek: - or reduce oxygen levels until Marcus passes out... and somehow they'll open it within the next 10 minutes...

He smashed the camera/mic on the inside as far as we now. That doesn't mean that the external ones do no work and that he still can't see/hear what's going on outside. I still think mommy will be used somehow to get him out of there - I doubt the whole scene of him calling her to warn her was just random.

Why he didn't shoot that fecker in the leg I don't know.

Decent episode. Glad that weasel Farhad is dead.

As for the poll options, Dana is not hot. At all.

President Hassan's daughter on the other hand.....

There's no account for taste Xavi

Mr. K

The end of the episode was a bit forced alright, a poor way to force a cliffhanger. Marcos' Mum will inevitably end up being essential to stopping him. She can always ring him, he'll answer to her.
