Anyone catch Kiefer Sutherland on Leno the other night? He talked about the infamous Jack Bauer action figure prototype melting incident, which is always a good time. Though I am quite partial to the Christmas tree tackle story. That guy is crazy! He also showed a clip of he and Chloe guest starring on The Simpsons, and I proceeded to cream my pants. It's as if everything I love came together in one moment of awesome singularity. Now Homer just needs to make a cameo on Friday Night Lights as a drunken fan and I can die in piece. But until then, I guess I should start this 24 recap.
The CTU agents are clearing out the building that Jack was all set to blow up, and he would have gotten away with it too if it weren't for those meddlin' kids. Mike "I like lollipops" Doyle questions Audrey about where Cheng had been holding her, but the woman is still completely out of it. He presses further, but all she can say is "Help me Jack. Don't let them do this to me." Aww. Audrey has been replaced by a robot! Robot Audrey and Zombie Palmer...this season may turn out alright after all. (But probably not.)
Nadia is in her office, yelling at someone to set up perimeters. Looks like she picked up the job pretty fast! She'll be letting the terrorists slip through her fingers in no time! Morris drops in and Nadia informs him that his request for a transfer is being denied, she needs him where he is and his petty scuffles with Chloe shouldn't be affecting his work. Morris puts on his very best I-armed-a-nuclear-bomb-give-me-a-break! look but it doesn't work and Nadia refuses once again, even though Bill had been considering it. And all the while some very Battlestar-like notes plink away on the soundtrack. Nadia = Cylon? Perhaps. She certainly is hot enough.
Mike calls up Nadia and informs her that Audrey has become a vegetable, so she says that she'll arrange for a specialist to come in and help deal with her. Oh, PLEASE not Barry Landes. If I ever have to see stupid Kim's face again I'll C4 my television myself. Mike whines for a while about how the component wouldn't have been lost if he hadn't intervened. Come on, Mike. Grow a pair. Whining doesn't get nuclear circuit boards back.
The agents lead Audrey out of the building and Jack of course plows through like a Mack truck to try and talk to her. Mike stops him, but Jack tries to reason with him, saying that he's the only one who knows what she's been through and he's sure that he can get through to her. Mike tells him he's under arrest and they're all coptering back to CTU for some punch and pie.

"Let go of me! I'll tackle your Christmas tree!"
Karen is busy reassuring Daniels that they're doing everything in their power to stop Cheng from getting the component out of the country. He asks her about the whole Bill situation, and says that he appreciates her sacrifice. And then he gropes her. Well, no, but with Daniels I wouldn't really have been surprised. Tom scampers in to say that the Russian president is on the horn and he wants to talk to Daniels face to face. Gulp.
Meanwhile, Lisa, the robotic strumpet, returns to an apartment and affirms her mole status, just as we knew she would as soon as she said last week that she was going home to "shower". Moles always say they need to take time off to shower. That's their schemin' time. She starts making out with a rather attractive man, and informs him that Daniels is now acting president, which is good for both of them. She's rather vague, but before she can go into more detail for our benefit, the guy tells her to stop talking and shoves her into the bedroom. He throws her upon the bed and deftly opens up her blouse. I have to say, it's very smooth.

Classy.

Poor old Chloe. I bet she's been kidnapped by Cheng to fix the component - karma for her 'don't arm nuclear weapons for terrorists' call to Morris.

OK, the time compression is getting ridiculous in this goddamn series. By their own clock, Lisa and the stud undressed, boinked, showered and half-dressed in 5 minutes or less. If that's the case, he ain't much of a hunk.
This once-exciting show is deteriorating fast. There have been so many lame twists to this "day" that nothing made any sense ultimately. But the time thingie has got to be the single most annoying piece of bullshit they've been trying to cram down our throats. At this rate, Jack's going to be able to fly to Washington, visit Palmer and fly back, all in one episode.
