Short Attention Span Review: "24" 5/4

Heh, if anyone knows what it's like to have someone threaten your loved ones if you refuse to do something that's totally out of character, that'd be Jack Bauer. Jibran, a hapless Muslim who loves America and his little brother, finds himself in the same sort of situation Jack was in during Day One, way back in 2001.

Jack made nice with Special Agent Janeane. Chloe found out Jack was doomed. And Jack met an Arab he didn't try to shoot, behead, kneecap, or towel-throat. It was a very special episode of 24!

Meanwhile, back at the White House, I just don't give a damn about the First Daughter/Chief of Staff and her dumbass choice regarding a hit on Jonas Hodges. I mean, seriously, does she think she's the only one with an axe to grind against this guy? She KNOWS about the Greater Conspiracy, so in the 24-verse she should take it as a given that even if she didn't call in a hit, SOMEBODY ELSE WOULD - especially once that itinerary got leaked.
