If you have been watching the show for a while, you know that one of the fun things to do is to watch the "Previously on 24" section. The people that they choose to highlight often play a big role in the upcoming episode, and so when I saw that Spenser got his own highlight, I was hoping that he would die. Only time would tell if my dream would come true.

We start out this episode where we left off last week. President Pussy sort of watched in horror as Jack threatened to make give Walt Cummings a reason to wear an eye patch for reasons other than Halloween and his wife's pirate fetish. Walt continued to give up more information on what he knew about the plan. He was originally contacted by James Nathanson, formerly of the CIA, and who I am guessing is the mastermind we keep seeing with all of the Minority Report plasma screens roaming around his head.

For most of us, it is impossible to sort of understand Walt's thinking. To aid in the procurement of a deadly nerve gas, knowing that it was intended for civilian targets, imagining there would be little collateral damage, and on top of it, thinking that it was all in the best interest of our nation and its citizens? I know that he said the goal wasn't to kill Americans, but aren't you kind of putting your faith in the wrong people? This was not letting your neighbor borrow your John Deere so he could mow his lawn, but he messed up and bent your mulching blade going over a tree stump. Walt gave terrorist nerve gas, didn't follow through with the plan properly, and now millions could be dead. And all of this after he ordered the deaths of four people, with three dying, including a former President of the United Sates! But at least he isn't advising the President anymore, so we won't have to deal with him for long.
