Hola Gasmii! I'm sorry this recap is a little late this week, but I was side-tracked with my little vanity project. Rest assured, next week's will be on time...and look on the bright side! Now you only have to wait a few days for the next recap!
The name of the game is DRAMA this week. Sisters will fight over a man. Mothers and Daughters will fight over everything. Two mousy computer geeks will fight for dominance. One man will fight for his life! Sadly, nobody will fight for their right to party. No time! It's the MOST.DRAMATIC.EPISODE.EVER!
And it's all recapped for you, mi amors...after the JUMP!
It's 4PM in the Korean Grocery across from Dubaku's apartment, and Agent Walker is running outside to meet that ambulance Jack barked at her to call 5 seconds ago as Episode 8 was ending. Renee's newfound Zombie powers apparently include telepathy. She must have willed the ambulance to arrive while she was racing up the stairs. Outside the store, there's also already a cop on crowd patrol duty. I'm going to give the producers the benefit of the doubt on this one. DC is always a couple years behind the curve, so he was probably already there trying to control one of those "flash mob" pranks that were oh so trendy a couple of years ago.
Anyhoo...Renee tells the cop to keep the hipsters at bay, which shouldn't be too hard since the grocery doesn't sell ironic T-shirts. She races into the basement with the EMTs and mentions that Henry Taylor is the victim, which I suppose explains why these medical professionals follow her dutifully with barely a glance at any of the dead bodies they are stepping over. When they arrive in the Back room where Jack is tending to the First Hubby, he screams "Over Here!" at the rescue squad who are 6 feet away and already racing in his direction. Calm down a little, Jack! Nobody does their best work when being yelled at.

Great episode - although it would take a lot for me to knock 24. And as for the recap -
*standing ovation*
Too many hilarious quotes to point out, and the screenshots/captions rocked!
I really hope Jack and Renee don't hook up. I know Audrey's out for this season, but there's still hope for next, please oh please.
Can't wait to see Chloe and Janis go at it too.

Yeah, jjnoza, there's always hope now that "Lipstick Jungle" has tanked.
That field of red flags reminded me of my ex-boyfriend. *sniffle*

@hillpete
Thanks!
@jjnoza
There's a great article from last weekend's NY Times about Chloe/Janis and Mary Lynne/Janeane's real life friendship. I'd link to it, but include links in posts...check it out!
@pixie
I feel your pain. Been there, myself.

Interesting article - I wouldn't have found it otherwise - thanks! I understand Janis's character a lot better now - the mix of anxiety and irony. She irritated me a lot at the beginning, because I couldn't tell if she was supposed to be an FBI Chloe - yet didn't seem to have any balls/much of an edge, so to speak. Should have realized there was more to it!
