Hey y’all. I’ve started the AI post for last night, but I’ve been painting all day, and on my lunch break, Frank is making me watch the inanity that is Day Six of 24. My prediction for this week’s episode: Nadia (Yassir) is a mole, and “Audrey” is really Anna Espinosa.
I’ll update this post if I have snark. I don’t even care about this show this season. Not after they killed Rico Suave.
Oh look! I have snark. Lisa Miller is such a generic, white bread name. Hi, I’m Jane Smith, and I’ve been unknowingly committing treason. And isn’t the Lisa Miller plot the same plot from season one where that girl from Palmer’s camp was sleeping with that terrorist guy? Don’t go rendezvouz with him, Lisa! You’ll second-degree-murder the only lead to the leak inside the beltway!
Nadia said, “If Chang gets out of the country with the component, Russia will hold us responsible and will strike back at us.” That should have been followed by, “And we will be forced to obliterate Russia.” Translated roughly, “If we do not get the component back from Chang, Russia will be forced to commit a violent suicide.”
So… are Nadia (Yassir) and Doylie an item or something? They sure are having a lot of “moments.” My eyes are going to pop out, they’re rolling so hard.
Jack says “please” A LOT. He did that even before the Chinese got ahold of him, right?
“The objective is to obtain The Package.”
Seriously, are we looking for a Rambaldi device? I really wish I hadn’t seen the previews. I wouldn’t know what The Target was. CTU? :-O Too bad Rico Suave and Soul Patch Tony aren’t around to help out. But at least they have one badpinkytoe on the premises.
Chloe O’Brien, baby.
Dude. The sound on this show has been HORRIBLE this season. The Whispering Disease is so bad that we have to turn the amp up practically all the way, and then we nearly burst the speakers during the commercials. Not cool, 24. Not cool.
Oh, funny thing. When the tac team got to the arsenal, Doylie said that there were “empty rifle magazines,” and Frank asked me what he just said, so I repeated it back to him. He thought he’d said “anti-rifle magazines.” The jokes and puns ensued. Frank started it off. “I thought maybe it was some Brady campaign magazine.” Then me. “Yeah, like the American Anti-Rifleman.” His was better. Actually, I don’t really remember what I said. At the time, I was picturing some device that fends off rifles. Gun control doesn’t work, so I was coming up blank. Oh well. End diversion. I apologize for saying it would be funny.
I think generic home grown terrorist guy is going to kill generic white bread Lisa Miller.
Milo: “I understand if your feelings for me have changed. I mean, we started having feelings for each other like ten hours ago, and I understand if you don’t have feelings for me now. Also, maybe you have feelings for Doylie. That’s ok, or whatever.”
So who is The Package? Is it Sydney Bristow’s sister? No wait, she was The Passenger. We think it’s either Chloe, so she can arm the bombs, Jack, or Jack’s sister-in-law.
HOLY. Poor Milo! As soon as they asked who was in charge, I knew what was going to happen to the in-charge. But wow. Let’s just kill any characters who’ve been on the show for longer than five minutes, okay? Watch out, Chloe, Jack. You’re next.
So why do they want Jack’s son?
Hmm. The kid didn’t grab the gun out of the fan and shoot anyone with it. This is the first time I’ve questioned that he is Jack’s son. Of course, Jack’s gone soft anyway.
Mrs. Petrelli, sit down.
Oh duh. That’s why they want Jack’s son. Just an exchange. They should want him for something better, like he can rig an election with his mutant powers. They need new writers for next season. If we can telecommute, Frank and I volunteer. I really just want to write Chloe’s lines and make sure Jack cries less, though.

no parting snark for the fate of poor milo?
She’s IMAO blogger SarahK, and this is the longest post of her life.
shane, NO RUINING STUFF FOR ME! WE’RE ONLY HALFWAY THROUGH THE SHOW! CAN’T YOU SEE, I’M UPDATING AS I GO? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? BAD SHANE! BAD! BAD!
here’s a spoiler for you from when I watched it that night: Harry’s name comes out of the Goblet of Fire.
I’m so out on 24. I did watch the last few minutes without reading, though.
See, the post just keeps getting longer and longer.
sorry. i don’t sit around all day waiting for imao to update it’s little self.
i just figured you got lazy and that was all we were getting…
forgive me.
Nadia (Yassir) is a mole, and “Audrey” is really Anna Espinosa.
LOL!!!
I’m glad Milo got whacked
Sarah, you so rock.
Sarah, you absolutely MUST apply for 24 writer job. All your comments are a riot! And also spot-on. My feelings exactly. After your original comment – couple of months ago (the longest one) I expected one for each episode. It’s too bad we had to wait so long the next one. You and Frank would make a good 24 writer team.

What I don’t get is why didn’t VP Big Face counter the Russian threat by saying, “Well, it’s actually the Chinese who made this mess and are trying to steal your secrets, why aren’t you threatening them?? Tell you what, why don’t we blame China for the big boom outside LA today and jointly turn the country into a mu shu wrapper. I really need to nuke something and we don’t have anything that can reach the moon at the moment…”
