"11:00 AM - 12:00 PM" (2.4) - Real-Time Review

Review by Philip N. Zeman, Editor-in-Chief, and Malin Huffman
12.3.2002

As a helpful tool, the timestamp for each comment that takes place during the episode will be editted for whatever hour the show begins. This RTR took place in realtime at 10:00pm CST, but the show took place at 10:00am EST. The timestamps have been editted accordingly.

NOTE 24 is a more mature show than some of the others that ASM reviews, and as such, the RTR will reflect this. Some of the milder profanity has not been edited out, and Phil and Malin will be making comments about some of the more attractive females on the show. These RTRs are not meant for ASM's younger audience.

Phil [10:01:54 PM]: So, we ready for 24?
Malin [10:01:59 PM]: yes
Phil [10:02:08 PM]: What time frame are we up to?
Malin [10:02:27 PM]: 11 am
Phil [10:02:56 PM]: Oh, good, then I have the right tape.
Phil [10:03:00 PM]: Where do we want to start?
Phil [10:03:07 PM]: With "PReviously" or "The following takes place?"
Malin [10:03:10 PM]: I am right at the 'The following takes place' screen
Phil [10:03:36 PM]: Okay, let me get cued up.
Phil [10:04:48 PM]: Okay, I timed the previously portion.
Phil [10:04:52 PM]: It's 1:28 in length.
Phil [10:05:30 PM]: I'll start it again and time it right.
Phil [10:05:35 PM]: And give you a countdown.
Malin [10:05:46 PM]: Ready
Phil [[10:58:55 AM]]: 65 seconds away.
Phil [[10:59:05 AM]]: (roughly)
Phil [[10:59:30 AM]]: 30 seconds roughly.
Phil [[10:59:45 AM]]: 15 sec.
Phil [[10:59:51 AM]]: 10
Phil [[10:59:55 AM]]: 5
Phil [[11:00:05 AM]]: Wait, I mistimed.
Phil [[11:00:10 AM]]: Starts NOW.
Malin [[11:00:22 AM]]: CTU go BOOM
Phil [[11:00:33 AM]]: I'm on "Dennisy"
Phil [[11:00:36 AM]]: Guest- staring
Malin [[11:00:49 AM]]: That's about right
Phil [[11:00:56 AM]]: Wow, CTU's in bad shape.
Malin [[11:01:00 AM]]: .Woo, Jon Gries
Phil [[11:01:08 AM]]: First non-guest star credits start now.
Malin [[11:01:44 AM]]: Ouch
Phil [[11:01:49 AM]]: She
Phil [[11:01:55 AM]]: She's in bad shape.
Phil [[11:02:06 AM]]: Directed by:
Phil [[11:02:11 AM]]: We in sync?
Malin [[11:02:15 AM]]: yup
Phil [[11:02:22 AM]]: And now the kid goes in seizures.
Phil [[11:02:24 AM]]: That's not good.
Malin [[11:02:27 AM]]: Well, that's convenient
Phil [[11:02:40 AM]]: "She's seizing". NO KIDDING, EMT.
Malin [[11:02:45 AM]]: heh heh
Phil [[11:02:48 AM]]: "We did everything we could do". BS.
Phil [[11:03:05 AM]]: Lynn, take this guy out.
Phil [[11:03:13 AM]]: Use your Bajoran techniques or something.
Malin [[11:03:24 AM]]: Yeah, no Bajoran would take that crap
Phil [[11:03:28 AM]]: Wow, Eric is still a #%*@#%.
Malin [[11:03:47 AM]]: Hm, why would he be able to blackmail her with that? Seems pretty weak
Malin [[11:04:14 AM]]: "Oh you know, exploding organs, your brain melting away..."
Malin [[11:04:17 AM]]: "That sort of thing"
Phil [[11:04:26 AM]]: Yeah.
Malin [[11:04:28 AM]]: Poor bastard
Phil [[11:04:30 AM]]: That's gotta be rough.
Phil [[11:04:39 AM]]: Knowing you've got a day to live.
Malin [[11:04:49 AM]]: Yeah, but what a crappy way to spend it
Phil [[11:04:49 AM]]: Oh, this is going to be pretty come later in the season.
Malin [[11:05:35 AM]]: Whoops
Phil [[11:06:04 AM]]: "I *AM* a nuclear device now."
Malin [[11:06:08 AM]]: heh
Phil [[11:06:24 AM]]: So, Jack, how you feeling, having helped blow up your friends?
Malin [[11:06:28 AM]]: (I hope I die before the bomb goes off)
Phil [[11:06:55 AM]]: So, does Jack show his true colors now?
Malin [[11:07:23 AM]]: Hm
Phil [[11:07:26 AM]]: Apparently so.
Phil [[11:07:37 AM]]: "I know what I did."
Malin [[11:07:40 AM]]: Doesn't seem like a great moment to do so, but hey
Phil [[11:07:47 AM]]: Yeah, he's gonna have guilt.
Phil [[11:07:56 AM]]: I think Eddie will soon be dead, too.
Phil [[11:08:03 AM]]: ... unless these guys wound Jack.
Malin [[11:08:07 AM]]: These guys are too whiney to last long
Phil [[11:08:13 AM]]: Or Eddie takes off.
Malin [[11:08:23 AM]]: Buhbye, Eddie
Phil [[11:08:26 AM]]: Well, Eddie's not going anywhere, is he?
Phil [[11:09:42 AM]]: So, now, Jack's off to find Joe.
Malin [[11:09:43 AM]]: Hm, 10 minutes in and no Kim running yet. That's got to be a record
Phil [[11:09:56 AM]]: And will Joe have -- heh -- the answers Jack needs?
Phil [[11:10:02 AM]]: Probably not; this is only episode 4.
Malin [[11:10:05 AM]]: heh heh
Phil [[11:11:07 AM]]: I decided that when I was timing the opening, I'd reset my PC clock to the 24 time.
Phil [[11:11:12 AM]]: One less thing to edit in the RTR.
Malin [[11:11:14 AM]]: heh heh
Phil [[11:11:47 AM]]: Run, Jack, Run!
Phil [[11:11:51 AM]]: Er, Drive, Jack, Drive!
Malin [[11:12:00 AM]]: You beat me to it
Malin [[11:12:39 AM]]: I've got an extremely reliable matchboo- I mean source
Phil [[11:12:53 AM]]: Heh.
Phil [[11:13:01 AM]]: "Yeah, she's here, Jack. That okay?"
Malin [[11:13:22 AM]]: oops
Malin [[11:13:38 AM]]: Geez
Phil [[11:13:39 AM]]: Yikes.
Malin [[11:13:48 AM]]: Ohhhh
Phil [[11:13:59 AM]]: Great. The kid's been abused.
Phil [[11:14:00 AM]]: That's horrid.
Malin [[11:14:04 AM]]: Big surprise
Phil [[11:14:11 AM]]: ... great.
Malin [[11:14:14 AM]]: Kim, you moron
Phil [[11:14:19 AM]]: Now we know more of Kim's sub-plot.
Phil [[11:15:00 AM]]: ... how can you discretely evacuate LOS ANGELES?
Malin [[11:15:08 AM]]: Oh, brilliant. Let the CTU bomb go off to promote his plan to evacuate freakin LA
Phil [[11:15:15 AM]]: Eric's a jackass.
Malin [[11:15:33 AM]]: 20%????
Phil [[11:15:54 AM]]: That seems awfully high.
Malin [[11:15:59 AM]]: That's not an acceptable survival ratio
Phil [[11:16:05 AM]]: Damn right.
Malin [[11:16:06 AM]]: heh
Phil [[11:16:21 AM]]: Eric just got figuratively kneed in the crotch.
Phil [[11:16:23 AM]]: Excellent.
Malin [[11:16:30 AM]]: yup
Phil [[11:17:17 AM]]: Kick some ass, Jack.
Malin [[11:17:21 AM]]: Lynn, you don't want to piss Jack off
Phil [[11:17:48 AM]]: Damn right, Jack.
Phil [[11:17:58 AM]]: Next time, Lynn, don't let Eric stop you. Do your job.
Phil [[11:18:03 AM]]: And hey, back to this plotline.
Malin [[11:18:12 AM]]: Ah, back to the most beautiful day of their lives
Malin [[11:18:28 AM]]: We still don't know what the heck she is... agent, accountant.....
Phil [[11:18:33 AM]]: .. wasn't she supposed to keep this all to herself?
Phil [[11:18:45 AM]]: And here she is, blabbing away.
Malin [[11:19:20 AM]]: Oh, that's great logic
Phil [[11:19:25 AM]]: Yes, she even KNOWS she was supposed to not say a word.
Malin [[11:19:30 AM]]: "He told me not to tell anyone but I had to tell you"
Malin [[11:19:48 AM]]: And he offered to cut me in...
Phil [[11:19:52 AM]]: Heh.
Phil [[11:19:56 AM]]: Something doesn't jive here.
Malin [[11:19:59 AM]]: nope
Phil [[11:20:09 AM]]: He's gotta be working for the terrorists or else there'd be no reason for this wedding plotline.... right?
Malin [[11:20:17 AM]]: you'd think
Phil [[11:20:34 AM]]: I'm confused, but well, nothing I can do but let it ride.
Malin [[11:20:55 AM]]: Ok, he's so up to something
Phil [[11:21:10 AM]]: YEah, I got that vibe, too.
Malin [[11:21:19 AM]]: Spidey sense tingl-
Phil [[11:21:40 AM]]: You sure that's not your "Kimmy sense" tingling, like you talked about last time? ;-)
Malin [[11:21:45 AM]]: oh yeah
Malin [[11:22:02 AM]]: But she hasn't been on enough this week for that tingle
Phil [[11:22:32 AM]]: I'm not going to continue this line, cause it'll just degenerate. :-)
Malin [[11:22:50 AM]]: I'm confused by their approach to her character this year. It seems they're just making her dumb on purpose
Malin [[11:23:03 AM]]: You'd think after last season, she's at least be a bit more cautious about things
Phil [[11:23:16 AM]]: I should put S1 on my Christmas list.
Phil [[11:24:25 AM]]: You'd think she'd be cautious.
Phil [[11:24:33 AM]]: Maybe she's traumatized from her mom's death.
Phil [[11:24:43 AM]]: Or maybe we're just trying to think of reasons other than "The writers need her to act this way".
Malin [[11:24:52 AM]]: Yup
Malin [[11:25:14 AM]]: Kim must be in X-treme peril all day long!
Malin [[11:25:41 AM]]: OK, if he's going to start melting down through the day, how's he going to be of any use?
Phil [[11:25:48 AM]]: No kidding.
Phil [[11:25:51 AM]]: Coughing already.
Phil [[11:26:08 AM]]: Of course, that could be just the "smoke" and some psychosomatic things.
Phil [[11:26:18 AM]]: Yeah, George. Go to CTU while you can still help.
Phil [[11:26:24 AM]]: (No sarcasm there, either.)
Malin [[11:26:37 AM]]: Well.. you're slightly radioactive...
Phil [[11:26:50 AM]]: Naw, they gave him the power hose scrubdown, remember?
Malin [[11:27:04 AM]]: Ah yes. I was trying to block that from memory
Phil [[11:27:32 AM]]: Wow, Joe's gullible.
Malin [[11:27:38 AM]]: OK, Jack, maybe slicing yourself in the head wasn't the greatest idea
Malin [[11:27:43 AM]]: "Everybody's dead!"
Phil [[11:27:53 AM]]: ... are you behind?
Phil [[11:27:55 AM]]: Joe just sat down.
Malin [[11:27:57 AM]]: Woo, Jon Gries gets something fun to do
Malin [[11:28:01 AM]]: heh
Malin [[11:28:13 AM]]: Jack just yelled Put it Down
Phil [[11:28:29 AM]]: "They used you."
Phil [[11:28:45 AM]]: "Why did you hit CTU toda? Today of all days?"
Malin [[11:28:53 AM]]: your're 15 sec ahead
Phil [[11:28:57 AM]]: How the hell did that happen?
Malin [[11:29:09 AM]]: maybe we should just skip the next ad set
Phil [[11:29:28 AM]]: Nice doggie.
Malin [[11:29:29 AM]]: There's a shotgun in your face, Joe. What you gonna.... oh, woah, doggy
Phil [[11:29:55 AM]]: Joe opens up the shack door now.
Phil [[11:29:58 AM]]: By firing.
Phil [[11:30:01 AM]]: And steps in...
Phil [[11:30:06 AM]]: ... and sees what? Nothing?
Malin [[11:30:19 AM]]: I love the nice clean hole of a shotgun round
Malin [[11:30:39 AM]]: Joe. "Um, no. Don't think I'll open the door"
Phil [[11:31:09 AM]]: Hey, good, it's the mom.
Phil [[11:31:34 AM]]: ... who's completely insane about the whole beating thing.
Malin [[11:31:39 AM]]: No, bee-atch, you listen
Malin [[11:32:08 AM]]: It was... twenty accidents. Really.
Phil [[11:32:12 AM]]: Think the mom will sell Kim out?
Malin [[11:32:15 AM]]: oh yeah
Phil [[11:32:19 AM]]: ... no, cause she won't get the chance to get there.
Phil [[11:32:23 AM]]: Digiclock disappear.s
Malin [[11:32:27 AM]]: oh, right
Phil [[11:32:32 AM]]: How far behind?
Malin [[11:32:36 AM]]: 5 sec
Malin [[11:32:43 AM]]: fast forwarding
Phil [[11:33:01 AM]]: Start right as the clock disappears.
Malin [[11:33:02 AM]]: My old VCR had a 30 sec skip button. I miss that
Malin [[11:33:22 AM]]: ok, I'm there
Phil [[11:33:24 AM]]: I was going to say "This is so much easier to have tapes in sync"... but apparently that's not true.
Phil [[11:33:41 AM]]: I kinda want to keep a true time record of this, so I'm not FFing.
Phil [[11:33:47 AM]]: I'll let you know when the clock appears.
Malin [[11:33:59 AM]]: *taptaptaptaptap*
Phil [[11:34:04 AM]]: Heh.
Phil [[11:34:09 AM]]: Dare I ask what you're tapping?
Malin [[11:34:17 AM]]: foot
Malin [[11:34:28 AM]]: What did you th-? Uh, never mind
Phil [[11:34:37 AM]]: I thought maybe your watch.
Phil [[11:34:54 AM]]: Hey, these are Real-Time-Reviews, buddy.
Phil [[11:34:58 AM]]: One of us has to be in real time. :-)
Malin [[11:35:21 AM]]: I like to cheat:-)
Phil [[11:35:28 AM]]: You like to cheat reality, huh?
Malin [[11:35:37 AM]]: Yeah, 1 hour is really 45 minutes
Malin [[11:35:42 AM]]: TV has taught me so
Phil [[11:36:08 AM]]: This is true.
Phil [[11:36:14 AM]]: Clock appears.
Phil [[11:36:20 AM]]: Clock disappears.
Malin [[11:36:34 AM]]: J-oooooooeeeee!
Malin [[11:36:43 AM]]: I'ma comin' for yew!
Phil [[11:36:48 AM]]: Heh.
Malin [[11:37:15 AM]]: Hm, how did they get the CTU access codes?
Phil [[11:37:20 AM]]: Hmmm.... Jack, do you really think a guy like him will be swayed by those words?
Phil [[11:37:23 AM]]: .. excellent point.
Phil [[11:37:31 AM]]: Is someone working from the inside?
Phil [[11:37:33 AM]]: Like.... Eric?
Malin [[11:37:35 AM]]: again?
Malin [[11:38:09 AM]]: Hm. I can't reason with you, so now I shall move on to... insults!
Phil [[11:38:13 AM]]: Heh.
Phil [[11:38:29 AM]]: "What am I going to do with all the power? I'm going to Disneyworld!"
Phil [[11:38:34 AM]]: Or:
Phil [[11:38:38 AM]]: "I have the Powerrrrrrrrrrrr!"
Malin [[11:38:44 AM]]: aiee
Phil [[11:39:06 AM]]: How many hours before the wedding?
Malin [[11:39:10 AM]]: Way to act natural, girl
Phil [[11:39:11 AM]]: And they've got time to go for a drive?
Malin [[11:39:21 AM]]: They're going to get something... Ididn't catch what
Phil [[11:39:31 AM]]: Nor did I, apparently.
Phil [[11:39:39 AM]]: Yeah, I wouldn't be suspicious of this conversation.
Malin [[11:39:51 AM]]: Oh, great
Phil [[11:39:59 AM]]: Kate: "... ulp..."
Malin [[11:40:18 AM]]: Hm, I think you're a terrorist, so I'll just let you take me somewhere abandoned
Phil [[11:40:32 AM]]: He's just going to show her a house, I bet.
Phil [[11:40:37 AM]]: .... yep.
Malin [[11:40:38 AM]]: bingo
Phil [[11:40:38 AM]]: I called it.
Malin [[11:40:47 AM]]: I was thinkin' it
Phil [[11:41:04 AM]]: If he's not a terrorist, he must be thinking, "So, I'm marrying into a psycho family."
Malin [[11:41:08 AM]]: heh heh
Phil [[11:41:12 AM]]: Well, Paula's not dead, that's good.
Malin [[11:41:19 AM]]: That would be kind of funny, if he turned out ok
Phil [[11:41:21 AM]]: .... ouch.
Malin [[11:41:24 AM]]: And the dad was the bad guy
Phil [[11:41:26 AM]]: That was a big pool of blood.
Malin [[11:41:30 AM]]: eep
Malin [[11:41:33 AM]]: she's a pancacke
Phil [[11:41:34 AM]]: I'm not putting it past them to make the dad the bad guy.
Malin [[11:42:23 AM]]: Way to be a hero, George
Malin [[11:43:20 AM]]: Cold, cold... but probably right
Phil [[11:43:46 AM]]: I know this is geeky, but "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few or the one."
Malin [[11:43:54 AM]]: ha
Phil [[11:44:03 AM]]: I'd hate to be in George's position for that decision.
Phil [[11:44:12 AM]]: Never mind the whole death in a day thing.
Malin [[11:44:28 AM]]: Leadership sucks, don't it?
Phil [[11:44:36 AM]]: Yeah.
Phil [[11:44:42 AM]]: I wanna be a peon for the rest of my life.
Phil [[11:44:47 AM]]: Wait, no, I don't. That'd suck, too.
Malin [[11:44:51 AM]]: yup
Phil [[11:45:34 AM]]: ... whoa.
Malin [[11:45:47 AM]]: ?
Phil [[11:45:49 AM]]: Local ad spot was a parody of the IBM commercials -- not the most recent ones, but the ones before it.
Phil [[11:46:01 AM]]: I totally thought it was an IBM commercial.
Malin [[11:46:14 AM]]: Lawsuit material?
Phil [[11:46:19 AM]]: No, probably not.
Phil [[11:46:36 AM]]: Heh. Weird to see a commercial for a Simpsons' I've seen already.
Phil [[11:46:47 AM]]: And here we go. Final act.
Phil [[11:47:16 AM]]: And Pres blames her.
Phil [[11:47:17 AM]]: Not good.
Malin [[11:47:19 AM]]: *gulp*
Phil [[11:47:21 AM]]: ....
Phil [[11:47:25 AM]]: That lying weasel Eric.
Phil [[11:47:32 AM]]: He got to the President, didn't he?
Malin [[11:47:44 AM]]: dumb, Lynn, dumb
Phil [[11:48:18 AM]]: Is she going to take the fall?
Phil [[11:48:22 AM]]: Yes, apparently so.
Malin [[11:48:31 AM]]: What the hell is wrong with her?
Phil [[11:48:38 AM]]: .. well, maybe, maybe not.
Phil [[11:48:51 AM]]: ... and the President is pretty smart, isn't he?
Malin [[11:48:55 AM]]: well, that's why he's the President
Malin [[11:49:00 AM]]: Nothing gets past him
Phil [[11:49:13 AM]]: Speaking of, where's that reporter?
Malin [[11:49:27 AM]]: You've disappointed me for the last time, Ro!
Phil [[11:49:46 AM]]: How bad are these CTU people going to feel when they find out he's dying?
Malin [[11:50:08 AM]]: Even though he's a jerk, probably pretty crappy
Phil [[11:50:59 AM]]: No, no unspoken romantic interest there....
Phil [[11:51:15 AM]]: ... and is Eric gonna get his comeuppance now?
Malin [[11:51:18 AM]]: Gotta have a little tension in the middle of chaos
Phil [[11:51:26 AM]]: I certainly hope so.
Phil [[11:51:40 AM]]: Heheheh. The look of death.
Malin [[11:51:40 AM]]: "President asked us to manhandle you a bit first"
Malin [[11:52:36 AM]]: Put him with the reporter!
Malin [[11:52:53 AM]]: Joe, would you come out for a Scooby Snack?
Phil [[11:52:55 AM]]: .... the sad thing is, I fully believe there are people like that in the government.
Malin [[11:53:00 AM]]: yup
Phil [[11:53:01 AM]]: Joe: "Ruh-ruh!"
Phil [[11:53:32 AM]]: Well, that gun didn't get him far.
Malin [[11:53:35 AM]]: "Jack - MAD!"
Malin [[11:53:41 AM]]: "Raaaarrgh!
Phil [[11:53:52 AM]]: Heh.
Phil [[11:53:55 AM]]: Jack SMASH!
Malin [[11:54:13 AM]]: He's gonna off himself, isn't he?
Phil [[11:54:14 AM]]: Joe's gonna kill himself.
Phil [[11:54:15 AM]]: Yep.
Malin [[11:54:19 AM]]: Woman?
Malin [[11:54:21 AM]]: Hm
Phil [[11:54:36 AM]]: So, who could this woman be?
Phil [[11:54:41 AM]]: But at least we have some answers.....
Phil [[11:54:57 AM]]: ... which lead us to more questions.
Phil [[11:55:08 AM]]: ....
Malin [[11:55:09 AM]]: Excellent, as there are still 20 hours to go
Malin [[11:55:19 AM]]: Heavy body count this week
Phil [[11:55:29 AM]]: ... okay, I recognize her from last season.
Phil [[11:55:38 AM]]: ... wasn't she part of CTU?
Malin [[11:55:42 AM]]: I figured as much
Malin [[11:56:02 AM]]: The last few seconds of my tape got cut off, but it's Nina, right?
Phil [[11:56:16 AM]]: It's ... yeah, like I know names. :-)
Phil [[11:56:25 AM]]: Lemme find a picture from IMDB.
Malin [[11:56:26 AM]]: Short, dark, almost spiky hair?
Phil [[11:56:30 AM]]: Yep.
Malin [[11:56:38 AM]]: Yes, that would be Evil Nina
Phil [[11:56:42 AM]]: Yep, it's her.
Malin [[11:56:46 AM]]: So that's how they're bringing her back in
Phil [[11:56:49 AM]]: So, she a traitor?
Malin [[11:57:02 AM]]: Yeah, she led everyone on a merry ride last year
Malin [[11:57:18 AM]]: And killed.... well, you know, right?
Phil [[11:57:23 AM]]: Yeah.
Phil [[11:57:27 AM]]: Jack's wife.
Phil [[11:57:29 AM]]: Right?
Malin [[11:57:33 AM]]: yup
Phil [[11:57:45 AM]]: Okay, previews for "next weel".
Malin [[11:57:54 AM]]: Last week?
Malin [[11:58:06 AM]]: 3P0: "I'm so confused!"
Phil [[11:58:08 AM]]: Last week, yeah.
Phil [[11:58:25 AM]]: Well, "tomorrow" or"Wednesday" whenever we watch it. :-)
Phil [[11:58:42 AM]]: Nothing of importance, other than "Nina Meyers? THe one who killed Jack Bauer's wife?"
Phil [[11:58:52 AM]]: And "Is Paula going to give the codes?"
Phil [[11:59:07 AM]]: So....
Malin [[11:59:09 AM]]: And death of some thugs
Phil [[11:59:12 AM]]: Like I said, some answers, yes.
Phil [[11:59:16 AM]]: But more questions.
Phil [[11:59:21 AM]]: What role does Nina have in all this?
Malin [[11:59:38 AM]]: Nina's been laughing maniacally from prison for 4 hours
Phil [[11:59:40 AM]]: Actually, in retrospect, the "Who's the woman in charge?" question was answered pretty quickly.
Phil [11:06:06 PM]: Is Raisa (or however you spell the name) a terrorist? What part does the bride's father have in all this?
Malin [11:06:16 PM]: Well, this week we've established:
Malin [11:06:28 PM]: George is a poor bastard with a crappy job.
Malin [11:06:35 PM]: Nina is even more eeeeevil than we thought.
Malin [11:06:42 PM]: Kim is still dumb.
Phil [11:06:57 PM]: Jack is not someone to mess with.
Malin [11:07:06 PM]: Jack needs anger management classes
Phil [11:07:09 PM]: The President is not dumb.
Malin [11:07:16 PM]: Hooray!
Phil [11:07:18 PM]: Lynn is gonna be guilt-ridden forever.
Malin [11:07:24 PM]: Lynn is a bit spineless
Malin [11:07:30 PM]: And Eric is still a total prick
Phil [11:07:34 PM]: That sums it up, yes.
Malin [11:07:54 PM]: So, not too much happened, but a lot was set up or in motion
Phil [11:07:55 PM]: YEah.
Malin [11:08:11 PM]: That's fine. It's just coming up on lunchtime
Malin [11:08:18 PM]: Plenty of day to go
Phil [11:08:34 PM]: We're only 1/6 of the way in.
Phil [11:08:58 PM]: At least we know where the access codes for CTU came from now.
Malin [11:09:13 PM]: Though you'd think they've have changed them
Phil [11:09:15 PM]: Maybe Eric's not involved as much as I thought -- maybe he's just a prick.
Malin [11:09:26 PM]: Isn't that usually what you do when one of your top people turns traitor?
Malin [11:09:33 PM]: Rekey all your locks?
Phil [11:09:41 PM]: The "24" universe is also one where Kim got dumber (apparently) and Jack didn't get recognition for saving the President-elect.
Phil [11:09:57 PM]: I'm not sure how intelligence is passed out. :-)
Malin [11:09:57 PM]: Ah, Kim is entering the 'dumb' phase
Malin [11:10:05 PM]: Happens to many
Malin [11:10:11 PM]: At that age
Phil [11:10:21 PM]: Before I forget, a happy belated birthday to Elisha.
Phil [11:11:03 PM]: We can wish Kiefer a happy birthday later this month.
Phil [11:11:33 PM]: And happy half-birthday to Dennis Haysbert.
Phil [11:11:37 PM]: Born on June 2.
Malin [11:11:39 PM]: heh
Malin [11:11:47 PM]: Now you're stretching it
Malin [11:12:17 PM]: Poor Jon Gries. From chasing the Pretender for 4 years to shooting himself in the head
Phil [11:12:27 PM]: ... that's who that was.
Phil [11:12:31 PM]: I knew I recognized him.
Malin [11:13:53 PM]: Heh, that's funny. The Fox 24 site doesn't give any background on Kate yet. Says 'CTU currently investigating background'
Phil [11:13:20 PM]: ... weird.
Malin [11:13:35 PM]: And Kim dropped out of high school??
Phil [11:14:26 PM]: Ah, "Reza". Got it.
Phil [11:15:46 PM]: Yikes. Character guide has spoilers for next week's, er, last week's, er the next episode we haven't seen of 24.
Malin [11:15:53 PM]: Aie
Malin [11:16:01 PM]: Closing... browser.. window...
Phil [11:16:02 PM]: Didn't read anything other than "12:00pm - 1:00pm"./
Malin [11:16:07 PM]: now!
Phil [11:16:10 PM]: Heheheheh.
Phil [11:16:27 PM]: Too bad this chat session didn't split into two angles of the same view.
Malin [11:17:30 PM]: ha
Malin [11:18:08 PM]: Tune in next week... I mean last week... I mean this week... oh, screw it
Phil [11:18:18 PM]: I think that sums it up nicely.
