While being escorted out of the White House, Kanin is intercepted by Pierce who tells the agents he'll take it from there. Once outside, Ethan tells Aaron that Olivia is DEFINITELY hiding something, and they're both lucky that Kanin is a paranoid sunovabitch! We're not guessing what that means for long, as Aaron pulls the REAL recording out of his cast. (Yay!) Aaron starts mumbling something about sneaking Kanin into the Communications Office, but Ethan came prepared with a player in his car, since you can never be too prepared when dealing with the likes of Ho-Livia. He heads off to find out what's on the data card and informs Aaron he'll let him know if he finds anything.


finale22
"Mr. Kanin, I know the strip-search must have been dehumanizing. But I also figured it's the most action you've gotten in at least a decade, so you wouldn't mind so much. Still buddies?"

Meanwhile, Tony and Cara arrive in a deserted warehouse somewhere and hand Jack over to a sketchy looking medical team in a pretty unsanitary-looking makeshift medical set up. Jack, through his twitches and general freaking out, demands to know what they're doing? Tony cooly informs him that they're going to use him as a human Petri Dish to reconstitute the bio weapon! While Jack screams and protests, they strap him down and the doctors inform Tony it'll take about 15 minutes to determine the level of pathogen in his spinal fluid. Jack, still twitching, calls after Tony who ignores him while heading out with Cara. The head Doc gives Jack a shot in the neck to control his twitching and Jack immediately enters a limp stupor! That's some strong stuff!


Finale23
The two non-speaking extras wouldn't stop trying to improvise, so production made a judgement call and had them wear surgical masks even though nobody else in the room (including the doctor) was wearing one.

Outside the "medical chamber," Tony demands that NOT-Patty call up her little balding boss and get him a larger role in the operation. She tries to explain that the Big Baddies seldom take kindly to ultimatums, and that he needs to be invited to the inner circle. Tony calls B.S. and reminds her of all the hoops he's jumped through for them today, and how he's seen her work her magic and "convince" the Big Boss Alan to do her bidding. She tells him that this is different, and he awesomely says "That's right...because this time you're doing it for me" before walking away.

Back in the medical chamber, the team pulls out an EXTREMELY scary looking gigantic needle and proceeds to stick it in Jacks spine. That dazed stupor? It doesn't last long, as Jack screams out in agony as we cut to break! Ouch!


finale24
"I swear! I didn't MEAN to head-but anyone! It was an accident. I tripped over Brooke Shields and my forehead landed on the guy! Let me go!"

Five minutes later, Ho-Livia is on the phone having another panicked conversation with her gay BFF Martin. He does his best to talk her down, reminding her that the most Ethan has on her is pure suspicion if she destroyed the data card. She reminds him that she destroyed Ethan's career and is worried he's going to stop at nothing to taker her down. Martin reminds her of the whole "being the President's daughter" thing, and that nobody in their right mind would act in those circumstances under pure suspicion. Just then, Tim Woods interrupts the surreptitious chat to let Ho-Livia know that Mama Taylor wants to see her in the Oval Office. Olivia nervously asks what it's all about, and Tim tells her it's a briefing on the airport situation. As she starts heading to the Office, Tim stops her to make sure everything OK, and she lies and tells him it's all fine. He glares at her with a cocked eye-brow as she storms off. Add Tim Woods to the list of skeptics! Olivia's House of Cards is crumbling, and I am loving it!


finale25
"Olivia, honey...I think you need to worry a little less about 'getting caught' and a little more about those awful roots! Time to hit the salon, sweetness!"

pixielated:

Great recap, Dogsnaxx! I can almost forgive you for being so late.

Your screencaps are the best.

Love ya.

slumrville:

I've loved your recaps all season, Dogsnaxx. Brilliant job providing the snark for a mostly brilliant season of 24!!!

So many funny moments from the finale, you had me laughing the entire time. I hope you're back in January, when 24 takes Manhattan!!!!

taxgirl:

Dogsnaxx - Excellent recaps all season long! I thought this season was as good as the earlier ones.

I too am shocked that Kim Bauer can actually make a smart decision! Maybe some magical stuff happened after she named her baby Teri!

Bad Olivia is gone! (I saw the same actress as a rape victim on Law & Order: SVU and I felt no sympathy!! I guess that means she did a good acting job)

Prez Taylor does everything right! (as we all know a woman president would do!)

Looking forward to the next season.

jjnoza:

Yay! The finale recap! Awesome job, DS! Love the screencaps too - you really have a talent for picking ones that are ripe for hilarity!

"who had to break into her luggage because she left her "electric toothbrush on." Is that what they're calling them these days?" - LOL! Couldn't believe Kim didn't bitch things up this time - go Kim! But stay away next season!

Glad to see Ho-livia get hers. Nasty, snide bitch. She was intolerable during the whole Kanin interrogation - I wanted to kick her in the hoo-ha.

Are you going to be doing recaps for other shows? Or is this it until January? I'll miss your wit if the latter is the case!


Dogsnaxx:

@ Everyone!

It's been an honor and a joy recapping the season for you all! It was a tremendous learning experience and a lot of fun when I was dealing with stupid tech issues and wanting to put my fist through the computer monitor!

I think I'm going to take a little break for the summer (19 weeks in a row of exposition heavy recaps are a lot!) But I hope to be back soon with another show (assuming Flipit hasn't disowned me because of my late finale! ;-) )

Hope you all have a great summer! It's been a lot of fun talking trash and enjoying the show with you guys!

Dogsnaxx:

I meant when I WASN'T dealing with crazy tech issues!

jjnoza:

Awww! You'll be missed - but enjoy your break - you deserve it!
