Several minutes later, back at the airport, Kim Bauer is hanging out in the waiting area keeping a nervous eye on the vaguely-ethnic-dressed-in-black dude that keeps looking in her direction. She decides to head over to the aging-Parker-Posey lady, who's sitting nearby with her long-haired "husband" and try to befriend them. In theory, it seems like a good idea...but knowing Kim, she's heading into the eye of the storm. Kim exchanges pleasantries with the couple about living in California, and then quickly changes the topic to checking out the sketchy dude keeping tabs on her. Parker checks out the dude for Kim, and notes that he's moving away...which puts them all at ease.
Ethnic Dude is moving away because he just got a call from Jack! Turns out he's one of the god guys and keeping tabs on Kim at her Daddy's request. Jack tells the dude the bio-threat is over, but still wants him to keep an eye on Lil' Kim until she boards the plane. After hanging up, he barks a few more orders at some FEDS, while staring forlornly at his ex-boyfriend Tony in the back of a police cruiser. Zombie Spice Renee comes up and informs Jack that Hodges has been killed. Jack assumes that Tony is next on the bad guys' "covering their asses by killing all witnesses" checklist...and requests a full armored detail to escort Tony to custody. He's not going to "lose" him again!
Still clad in her Elvira wig and Danny Gokey glasses, NOT-Patty/Cara is observing it all from the crowd. She calls into her boss "Alan" the CPA-clean-cut looking dude and fills him in on the massive failure of the mission. Alan: Not Happy! Cara tells him that, in addition to stopping the whole attack thing, the Feds also got their hands on Tony. Alan's instinct is to cut Tony loose and have someone take him out, since he knows too much. (s)Cara tells him that won't be necessary, since they have another "play". Boss Man hopes she knows what she's doing, for the sake of all the Baddies!
No sooner has the conversation ended, then we cut to Kim and her new BFFs at the airport...all but confirming she's being set up as the sacrificial lamb for the end-game of the season. Anyone who didn't see that coming? Raise your hands! Nobody?! Yeah...me neither. Her character is always dragged out for the sole purpose of royally f*cking things up. What pisses me off the most, is that the producers swore in pre-season interviews that they weren't going to bring her back for more of the same this time. So much for that!
Anyhoo...there's some announcement at the airport about the the flight being on it's way, and the weary travelers all breath a sigh of relief. Long-haired-Hippie-Hubby offers to go on a coffee run, noting that his wifey likes decaf. He asks Kim if she wants anything, but she's smart enough not to accept beverages from strangers. Hippie-Hubby takes off for the coffee and Kim asks Mrs. Posey to watch her bags while she pees.
Ethnic-Black-Clad Agent dude watches Kim head into the ladies room before hitting the urinals. We're treated to some fancy camera work, in which an "unknown" dude washes his hands for about 5 seconds while the agent relieves himself. It's the Quickest.Piss.Ever! as all of the sudden the agent emerges from the urinals and is jumped by "mystery" hands...which turn out to be Hippie-hubby. (All together now: "Duh!").
So, Long-Haired-Hubby drags Ethnic Dude into the handicapped urinal. LHB proceeds to strangle the crap out of ED and snaps his neck, before locking the Handicapped urinal (NOT COOL, dude...said the line of wheel-chair bound travelers outside) and jumping over the divider/exiting the bathroom. Larry Craig, watching in Washington, is all..."Why didn't I think of that?" We cut to break!

Hey, Dogsnaxx, another great recap!
I'm still hoping for a big twist, shockeroo next week, but I don't think it's gonna happen. You know, like someone totally unexpected, like Janis or Aaron, being in on the whole conspiracy? I guess I've been watching "Lost" too long.
I hope they don't keep this conspiracy under wraps until next season, but if they do, it's because they can't figure it out themselves. Hmmm, maybe Kim is behind it all?
Seriously, I am so disappointed in Ho-livia. Some villain she is! Just a garden variety loser.

Masterful recap - that's how *you* roll!
Love "firecrotch"! I wanted to bust that out earlier this season, but held back. :-)
And it was about 1 minute 18 seconds - that's bullshit that the captioning had it wrong - how hard can it be? It always pisses me off when I see captioning on somewhere and common words are completely misspelled. Poor form.
Anyway... I was hoping Jack gets cured tomorrow... If not, I wonder if Season 8 will pick up the following day (with or without a cliffhanger from this season, which would piss me right the f*ck off), instead of being months or years later as in previous years, and then end with his death? That would suck.
Kim sucks. Hard. That's all I'm going to say. She could f*ck up a wet dream, as my mother would say.
Glad to see Ethan back too - I hope Ho-livia goes down in flames, but quickly so we don't have to see too much more of her. What a waste of a character.

@Pixie
I'm wondering if that "needle in the back of Jack's neck" scene from the preview was the big "cure" thing? I guess it would stand to reason that the bad buys would have access to a "cure"...since they developed the drug. But why would they cure Jack? Think Tony's going to try and recruit him, or something? Weird.
I can't WAIT to see Ma Taylor go ballistic on Ho-Livia's ass tonight! I'm positively giddy with excitement.
@ JJ
Interesting idea for Season 8! That would be cool if they never cured him at all and Jack died at the end of the Season. However, I don't know if I could take a full 24 hour season of his twitching and sweating like a Meth addict. It's getting really annoying!
