He yells to Lisa that he's having a glass of wine, and would she like some? "00110110101001!" she replies in her native tongue. In English, she says she'll have what he's having. She joins him in the living room and he says that he can tell that something is up with her. Seriously, how? She's acting slightly more wooden than usual? She denies once again but the jig is up, as he grabs her and demands to know what's going on. Tom, fairly bored in the van, realizes that he should probably do something about this. But then doesn't. Haha. Tom rocks. Lisa grabs a wine bottle and crashes it over Mark's head, and only then does Tom give the signal for his men to run in and put a stop to this madness.
But it still continues for a few more moments, as Mark starts slapping Lisa around. She manages to wrestle him to the floor and then picks up...what is that...a lamp!! Not a floor lamp, mind you, but still a nice, solid table lamp! She starts beating him with it, and for the first time I think that maybe that Lisa chick is allll right. She'll be electrocuting enemies in no time. Alas, my newfound affection is cut short by Tom's men, who burst in and pull Mark off of Lisa, since he appears to be strangling her. Tom, barely able to suppress a yawn, tells his men to put Mark in the other room and to call an ambulance for Lisa, since she's unconscious but still has a faint pulse.
The most amusing interrogation then takes place in Mark's room, mostly because Tom seems to be so incredibly bored by this that it's simply riveting. He sighs that they have a shitload of evidence against Mark, so it would be wise for him to comply with their needs and he just might get some leniency in his sentencing. He is to send the documents to his Russian contacts and follow up with a phone call to confirm their authenticity. Which begs the question: why the hell didn't they just do this in the first place? That must be what's depressing Tom so much, the fact that they could have just stormed in and demanded his cooperation instead of watching him dance the horizontal mambo for hours on end.
Cheng gives a jingle to Grandpa and informs him that he lost Josh. This greatly displeases Grandpa. He tells Cheng that since he failed to uphold his end of the deal, the circuit board is no longer his. This greatly displeases Cheng. He goes on to say that he's not afraid of Cheng, and if he threatens him again the consequences will be serious. This greatly displeases me. I'm sick of idle threats from Grandpa. Last week he said he was going to destroy bingo night. But all he did was throw his mashed peas around and generally made a mess of the floor and himself.
To the Chengmobile!
Oh boy oh boy. Here it comes, a mysterious stranger walking through CTU with an air of superiority and a gaggle of bodyguards, it must be the replacement director sent from Division and its....some guy?!!! DAMMIT! Where's the surprise appearance by a character from seasons past? Where's Zombie Tony Almeida?! I demand my money back. This dillhole identifies himself as Ben Kram, and tells Nadia that he's going to be investigating the security breach, starting right now. Nadia, who appears to have taken a brief time out to change into a fetching turtleneck, argues that this isn't exactly the best time to be questioning her people, but Kram tells her he doesn't give a shit what she thinks and that someone with her limited experience should never have been put in charge. Well, at least this is in keeping with tradition. Has there ever been a new Director from Division who HASN'T come storming into CTU like it's Douchebag City and he's the new mayor?

This show is sucking so badly that I'm first to comment after several days. Wow. They NEED to appear on the Simpsons or else there won't BE another "day".
The episodes began to suck when the time factor started to be completely disregarded. It made the urgency disappear. Come on, they do things in one hour that would take days to do and expect us to live with it. Just think back on all that's gone on this season. Say good-bye, Mr. Bauer, NOW!
