Previously On 24: Was it 2am - 3am?

So, last week "M" and I both had issues during the first half of the show.

Depending on 24's resilient formula of changing plotlines (if that's what they are) every 3 hours, I'm back on track, though, baby.

What I picked up about last week was that the googly eyed kid had been recruited by the bad guys to wear a bomb -- they had more than recruited him, he was in their thrall. Something about his dad's bad deal in America.

Jack, the kid's mom, and various others tried to get him to give up and come back to his senses, but no go.

Splat.

Faline, having run away with her illicit boyfriend, winds up learning that Dad was right, and he's a bad guy. (Mom, back in the picture, gives her the signal.) She now has to figure out how to sneak out of their hotel room. (Spoiler alert: previews indicate that this likely won't end well.)

Mr. Hastings has a talk with Bridezilla, and she appears to be trying to get herself back on track at the office. It's hard having to sneak away to kill and dump the bodies of her old ex and his Bromantic Partner. Good thing there are swamps convenient to Manhattan.

As soon as she feels back on track (though we think that she was fooling herself about her Intended's Intentions) MethHead Kevin's parole officer rings her up. On her cell. Not sure how he got her number.

She's stressing, and her BF is trying to figure out how to get out of this mess...

I'd go into it more, but it's too late. (I'm old school, I still watch it live.)

Tick tick tick tick, bloop, bloop.
