-----------------------------------------

Well that ending was kind of abrupt. But those "Scenes from the next episode" were amazing! At least that gives me something to look forward to for next week.

Marcos was gone! He got absoultely destroyed! 24 shows some gruesome deaths, but the striking part about this one is that there was nothing left to show besides blood splatter all over that time machine.

As soon as Jenny/Dana thought she was done with this Kevin Wade, theres more. Know she has to deal with the shady looking parole officer after Kevin whereabout. Right now, Kevin lies at the bottom of some swamp, so Jenny/Dana better have a good story.

Well what do ya know? Maybe Hassan knows what he's doing after all. His suspicions prove to be true as Marcos confesses right before his death that it is in fact Taran that is a co-conspirator. Now it's Kayla who's in danger and Taran who is CTU's new lead. CTU just keeps getting bounced around from lead to lead, but still no indication of exactly where this dirty bomb is.

So with an episode that doesn't give us a cliffhanger, they essentially do with the scenes from the next episode! We get times where certain events are going to happen...At 3:52, "a twist that will change everything!" They say this as they show Hastings running throught CTU screaming "security!!". I think its safe to say that next week's episode will be a good one.

RATING AND STATS

4 Stars out of 5 - Great moments, but not a great episode. Right now, it seems as though some of these subplots are unrelated, but I assume, as time rolls on, connections wil appear to be evident. We will have to just wait and see. The scence with Marcos blowing up was 5 star caliber, but the episode as a whole was not.

STATS: Jack Bauer Kill Count

2:00am - 3:00am: 0 Kills

Season 8: 9 Kills (still)
