Well... baldy being Jack's brother was a definate surprise. I do like how they're revealing some more of Jack's backstory though.

I'm really getting annoyed with Palmer's sister. She's just... well, annoying. She's a nagging bitch.

Jack's whole "I CANT DO THIS ANYMORE~" is gonna fall off the map just like his drug addiction did in S3. The writers go "yea, this works~ Uhm... Fuck, let's drop it."

Quite a good episode overall, although I already knew about the brother storyline.
Did anyone else love the final cutscene (or stinger as some call it)? Wayne's speech covering the boxes showing people involved in the threat such as the new British sounding guy, Fayed etc. I thought that was really well done.

It's pretty clear what happend. He did want to get out, but when the nuclear bomb hit he wanted back in. Hell Jack said exactly that during the episode. Jack, if nothing else, has always had an intense sense of duty. It's perfectly reasonable that the Bomb and the threat of more overrode his unitial unwillingness to help. This isn't hard to get.

How do you know how to say Smith? Fayed isn't terribly difficult to pronounce and I'd imagine working for an Islamic organization, he's probably come across that surname before.

haha so basically what we learned here is the moment jack quits is the moment the US gets nuked.

jack: "i can't do this anymore..."
*NUCLEAR EXPLOSION*
jack: "alright, i'm back."

Whether or not you like the timing of the bomb as a plot device is up to you. The reasoning for why Jack is back in the game is independent of that, reasonable, and easy to understand.

I know this is a bit late to be asking this but why exactly did the dad kill that dude in the warehouse? I didn't really get that part.

The part cost a loooot of money (more than he was given), and the dad needed it or else his family would die. Lacked the money, low on time, family's life in peril... That old chestnut. Either way, it was either kill him or walk out and let his family die.

Oh ok. Thanks for clearing that up.

I think that episode was on the same day as the Golden Globe Awards or something. My brother was switching between the two shows and we missed that part. We just saw the dad beat the dude's head into the floor when he changed the channel back to 24.

He knew it was for terrorism. That should have been enough.

I doubt that many people would sacrifice their family for people he had no connection to. I know that if my family were in harms way then I'd do all I could to save them, to hell with nameless faces.

I probably would feel the same way. However, I would probably realize that the word of a terrorist is worth exactly jack shit, so while I put up the appearance of meeting their demands, there is no way I wouldn't try to contact some form of authority.

I rather would have dumped a bucket of acid on him and have a car hit him.

Ehh, it still makes no sense why the dad didn't try to stop that guy from detonating the nuke.
