: : In my opinion...no. I think Jack has worked some deal with Hector and is playing him to get close to a connection which has terrorist implications.
: I agree. Or he's trying to destroy the Salazar tribe from the inside out.
I don't think it is just about Salazar...if it was then another organization would be doing it, not CTU. I have an inkling this will connect to umm...dare I say Nina. I am just seeing her as a reason that both Jack and Tony would go underground to get her back into custody....but we'll see.
: : I am doubtful...if he was, he wouldn't have left the debate and would have just given his answer to Wayne directly. I have a feeling Palmer is going to be pissed to learn he was manipulated.
: Ditto. Although I doubt he'll ever find out.
Well, Tony said at the end of the show to get the President on the phone, so I think he might get informed about it all.
: : Well...yes, I am bored with that some. I am sick of her coming and aplogizing to David every episode. It is getting tired.
: I just don't like her. She's always looking up at Palmer with the same exasperated expression. The show has really got to give me a reason why I should care if she gets killed or not. I haven't trusted her since the moment she appeared.
I actually like Anne...I like that she is the one who told Palmer what was the right thing to do when he was going to pay off Ted. I lost some respect for Palmer when he started to go ahead with it...since Palmer's biggest strength was his virtue and character and Anne was the one who had to remind him of that.
: : She is obviously up to something...so, that is a possibility, but if she was, why would she be so against Jack coming to Mexico?
: Why so obviously? I think she's just worried that Jack is gonna screw them over again.
Well, I don't think she is just concerned...her panic seems a little too urgent. And, I think they have spent too much time on her character to not have her playing a significant part. Two, I am feeling that she isn't an agent...because her little brother is there. If she was an agent, they wouldn't have sent her in and had her have a little boy with her. But maybe along the way...she might turn on the Salazar's...that's a possibility. I have read that some people speculate that Jack and Claudia had an affair when he was there...but, I am not feeling that.
: What's good about "24" is that even though twists like this seem so impossible (look how much stuff has had to happen for Jack to get back to Mexico; look at what Kyle Singer and his family have had to deal with; look at what happened to Almeida)...it's still awesomely clever.
Definitely...and I love the plot twists that you never expect. I love that everywhere we thought we were going, we realize that we aren't now. I really think 24 is the best show on TV...Alias is up there too, but 24 takes you on a ride like no other TV show.
