Tony approaches Renee and offers half-hearted condolences. She immediately grills him and wants to know what the hell happened. Tony spins a merry tale about being ambushed when they landed in the helicopter, and stuff. He tells them he doesn't remember much, but that he was unarmed and Larry was trying to cover him. He heard some auto-fire, but then blacked out. He tries to shut them up with a convenient "Larry saved my life story."
Super Sleuth Jack walks up and notes that Larry was killed by shotgun blasts while Tony was hit by something smaller. The doctor who treated Tony is standing nearby and notes that Almeida's wounds are consistent with 9 Millimeter fire. Jack seems surprised by this since they found shotgun shells and 45 millimeter casings near the SUV that Galvez used. Tony tries to cover his sketchy ass by saying that the dude had access to all the weapons in the SUV and probably changed up the guns he was using. Jack thinks the time frame is off and it doesn't add up. Galvez must have had some help! Tony tries to sketchily cover his ass again, saying it all happened pretty fast, but he supposes it makes sense that Galvez wasn't alone...he just didn't see anyone else. Renee and Jack rush off to inform Park that Galvez probably wasn't acting alone, while Tony gives a sketchy "awww...shit!" look to the camera and we cut to break! He wasn't counting on Jack being around!
When we return, Kim Bauer is en-route to the hospital and calls her hubby Stephen in LA to check in. He asks how the whole reunion thing went down...and Kim tearfully informs him that Jack is dying and it had to do with some kind of bio-agent/terrorism thing. Steve feels just awful about all of that, and wonders aloud if there's anything they can do. Kim lies and says "no." Lying runs in the family. Hubby Steve asks if she's sure she doesn't want to stay there in DC and spend some time with her father, and she says that her presence will only make things worse. Hubby Steve asks if she at least mentioned that Jack has a granddaughter now (WTF!?) and we catch sight of a baby in a crib. Now, I have to note that Kim is a very attractive woman, and her hubby Stephen is a hottie in his own right...so WTF is up with the ugly-ish baby they used as their daughter?!) Anyhoo...this little chick is named Teri after her Grandma (awww...) Kim says it would be too painful for Jack to know that he isn't just leaving a daughter behind. She's getting on a 7am flight and will be back in LA by 9am. Her hubby is super cool and patient about it all, telling her it's OK if she changes her mind and stays longer. She tells him she won't and hangs up/broods/cries. When are they going to go ahead and use Kim's stem cells to cure his illness? I'm getting tired of the seizures/constant discussion about how she WON'T be helping him.
Back at the FBI field command center, Jack notes that a sector of the cordoned off area hasn't been searched yet. Renee starts bitching at some dude over a walkie-talkie about this, and he notes that the residents of the area aren't exactly thrilled with having their homes searched at 2:30AM by warrant-less Feds! The folks in the ghetto don't trust the man! Renee doesn't give a damn about that, and tells them to proceed as Jack has one of his "episodes" and slinks away to take his drugs.
Tony follows Jack and watches him shoot-up. Jack, noticing Tony, tells him it's anti-seizure medicine. Tony asks Jack why he's not back at FBI Medical being treated, and Jack tells him there's no treatment and no cure. Sketchy Tony asks Jack what good he thinks he's doing in the field in his condition, and Jack tells Tony that Renee just lost her partner and needs his help. Jack starts heading back toward the rest of the gang and Tony grabs his arm and tells him he's "sorry"....sorry for what?! For reaching in his pocket and stealing his drugs?

First, congratulations on your new job! Second, your recaps are worth the wait!
Awesome recap this week! Page 3 in particular had me dying. The FBI going through your recaps, paired with the screenshot just below it - LOL! And you aren't the only one re: Cardiff's name. When Jack gave the name, the first thing I thought was I didn't remember the name being given before.
EC with the brains was great too!
And about the eyebrows changing color - very easy with eyebrow pencil! :-P
Still can't figure out where this is going. I'm assuming Tony's in it purely for the money? I hope they wrap it up well - I'd still like to know why Tony took things as far as he did with Bill, Jack and the FBI. Although I suppose greed/money could explain all that.

@ JJNoza
Thanks! I'm excited about the new gig, but it's been over a year since I've worked full time. Here's hoping I remember how!
I think Tony is in it for the money and also there's the issue of him being involved with Evil Red Head Chick. She might've gotten him into this.
@ Everyone
Just noticed a couple of errors I didn't catch before I posted! In the image caption of Mizelli on page three, it should read "Any idea HOW LONG it'll take me..."
In the O face caption of Jack towards the end...it should be RESEMBLES not REMEMBERS. Oops! I'm sure there's other errors. AlanHK, I'm sure you could find some. ;-)

At first that job is gonna slam you--it takes awhile to adjust to working full-time again. I've been working 50-60 hours since early March, but in a few weeks I'll be unemployed, since it is seasonal work.
I absolutely love your screen caps and captions. For some reason, the one with the guy scowling in his employee i.d. photo just cracked me up.
Damned if I know what's going on. Y'all know that what Jack has--Kreutzfeldt-Jacob disease--is the human form of Mad Cow Disease, don't you? Yep, Jack has Mad Cow Disease.

Haha...I know exactly what you mean. I was smiling today, so far so good. It helps that I really dig the new company/position.
Mad Cow...whatever...I'm just sick and tired of the wincing/seizing/drooling...just cure the dude already! The episode airs shortly on the East Coast...looking forward to it!
