holy shit! last night’s episode of 24 was insane! it’s crazy how that show has no qualms about killing off it’s main characters or blowing up nuclear devices in los angeles. anyway, if you haven’t seen last night’s episode and plan to, please don’t read on…

last night curtis (who’s been jack’s right hand man in the field since day 4) threatened to kill the terrorist that jack was working with, and whom the president had just granted immunity. i guess when curtis was in the middle east, the particular terrorist in question beheaded some of the members in curtis’ unit. so just before curtis could put a bullet in the good? terrorist’s head, jack shot him in the chest. we don’t actually see him die, so maybe he’ll make a miraculous recovery, but he looked pretty dead to me. jack was all broken up and told the president that he couldn’t go on… until the damn terrorists detonated a nuclear bomb, taking out valencia and i imagine surrounding cities. that got him outta his funk, and next week, i bet he’s gonna kick some ass.

last night they also killed off kal penn of harold and kumar fame. i thought he’d be a main character, especially because he seemed somewhat conflicted with his terrorist ways, but yep, just before he could kill some kid, the agents raided his place and shot him. the fall of taj? kekeke.

i also like the recurring theme in this series so far of dying for nothing. jack almost dying for nothing when the us government gave him up to get the location of the wrong terrorist, that terrorist on the train that only was able to blow himself up, the electronics guy that got his head bashed in by the dad because he wanted a little more money, etc. etc.

anyway, i can’t wait until 11am!
