Split Screen Montage

Oh, shooting a man's wife in the leg. Haven't we seen this one before?

Bloop, bloop!

Man Purse

Check.

Mike? Is he a Cop?

Ack.

I Can't Get The Hawaii Five-O Theme Out of My Head

The Hassan brothers both desperately need the ministrations of a high quality barber.

Kim, Usually Stupid

Now, she's the voice of reason. (Pretty probable that she got briefed so quickly. Does she still have security clearance?)

She knows it IS your problem, Jack. You're the one who saves the country. And that Hastings, while a babe, is a total tool. You can't possibly leave CTU in his hands.

You know I'm right!

ooo, another  "not my problem" and I have to say... Kim rethink the hair color.. your eye brows are WAY darker than your hair

Yeah, There's Something Going on With Bridezilla

2nd dammit. "A" you are getting rusty... this is #5

Where's Renee? And does anyone else think that the reporter and Jack might become an item?
No, the report is really in love with Hassan

ZZZZZZzzzz

I might have to nod off for a little while.

Ah, Haircut In the Cards

The younger brother is definitely going to be getting a haircut.

In jail.

(I still don't trust the CTU chick. Bridezilla's riding Chloe and I don't like it.)
.

OK, That's Not Jack

"It's not my problem." Hmmm.

And Hassan, definitely Jack Lord.

I know that there are barbers that make housecalls -- please, someone, call one for the younger brother, stat.
I think the brother and the wife have something going on!

Chloe!

Don't let them take you off your IT duties!!!
I'm with you... What is with Chloe!?! She's way smarter than this

Jack, you're missing that plane, stop fooling yourself.

I Actually Don't Trust Bridezilla

I think that she's the real Blonde Toady.

"M": I think she is preggers and Chloe is getting WAY annoying!

Oh, Please

And wouldn't Mme. President's Secret Service detail want her both disclosing the threat to Hassan, and to get the heck out of his orbit?

This is very silly.

I'm also taking umbrage with the story line about Chloe being a loser in the workplace.

(And Hassan's hairdo? Jack Lord.)

I concur on all counts! A dammit!!!

Hour 1 Recap

"A" yawning = About 18 times
Improbable NYC street scene = 1
Dammit =2 (M counted 4)
Bauer Kills = 2 (they were quality per M)
Women proven stupid = 0
Women proven evil =0
Times wished Eggar were still with CTU and Alive = innumerable
(And I didn't even get into the breach of diplomatic, security and all other worlds of protocol -- including good manners: Mme. President isn't going to tell the Islamic Republic President that there's a supposedly credible death threat?)
Dead Black Men = 0 (Hastings, I think we can agree that your days are numbered....you're both handsome and African-American.)

Things are going to have to pick up. A lot! I got pretty excited when Jack said "Dammit" and "A" missed it!!!

A New Blonde Toady?

Only this one's really, really eeeevil?

This is What I'm Talking About

First gunfight...and how did Victor get so perky all of a sudden? He was passed out!

Tower of Babel

Well, not quite. But it appears that every family member of in the President of the Islamic Republic has a different accent.

(And his younger brother looks like a character in a Bollywood film. I'm half expecting him to break into song!)

Jack, You Shoulda Hopped a Cab

This must be the longest 5 blocks ever...it's usually a block a minute on foot.

(Unless they're crosstown blocks, which doesn't seem logical given the destination is a heliport, should be on the river, and Jack started out pretty far west.)

Ah, the old field hospital in an unlikely alley-ish area. This can't have been filmed on location? Jack, I'm skeptical about you making that flight!

Yawn.

Stretch.

There's a lot of setting up going on. Only 2 dammits, Jack hasn't even discharged his weapon...

Hmmm.

Who Is Jack Bauer?

What rock has that guy been under?

"M": aw, give the kid a break, what is he... 12??

And CTU, Back in Business?

Dammit! Second dammit, Chloe.

Sweet office!!!!!
