omg omg omg (24!)

O.O

Um, if anyone is curious about 24, you can watch all season 6 episodes online.



I've had about a half an hour to come down after watching. *frazzle*

A lot of stuff went on in this episode but I'm not sure I remember anything beyond Jack holding his brother, cradling Graem's head between his hands, while Graem was being tortured, tortured by Jack. I'm still sort of reeling from that scene. Oh, and even before Jack started, when he had his back to his brother and you could see how much this was going to pain him, how difficult it was to not only torture someone, but torture his own brother, even if Graem was evil, because Jack didn't know just how evil. I don't think he even knows it now! I think he thinks Graem is still sort of misguided rather then evil, but he IS EVIL OMG. And then, when his brother confessed to masterminding the assassination of David Palmer, Tony, and Michelle and Jack's FACE. Omg, his face, crumbling, just dear lord, and then how he completely *lost it*, that even the other agents were looking at him with shock and dismay and holding a gun on him. AaiiaiaiaiaaEEEEE.

And then, Papa Bauer!

Oh Papa, you were good for only a brief span of time. I should have suspected when you shot that guy in the chest, right at the beginning of the episode, but I was foolish, like Jack. And then I should have suspected again when you said to Jack that he deserved a better family. That sort of rang a bit OTT to me, and now I know why, but I thought you were sincere! And then, when you asked to stay behind after the OMG Fraternal Torture! scene, I knew you were up to something. That was when I began to suspect you would either flee or kill Graem. And you killed him! You're worse than Graem! I didn't think that was possible. You probably are the big bad these season, I'm thinking. Amazing. That was... rather awesome, that whole scene. Lordy. *fans self*

Er, and uh, other stuff happened. I'm kinda liking President Wayne. On the internets I see a lot of negative comments about him, but I kinda like him. I loved the conversation he had with his sister, and how that made him realize he could not go along with Tom Lennix and his evil little plan. OH! And that reminds me, The V.P. is Powers Boothe! Holy cow, I just finished watching him in Deadwood. Eeeeevil V.P. Boothe! Of course, this just means Tom and the V.P. are going to have to do something else, something worse, to get what they want. Meep. I suppose we all knew Tom wasn't working alone.

I'm of course worried about Morris. I liked how they did that this season, getting a "mole" into CTU without it being a mole, which I'm glad about, because I like Morris. I had a funny moment when McCarthy got him out of the car and it was like the battle of the british accents. hee. I wonder about McCarthy's girlfriend. I feel she's going to roll over and snitch on her not so dearly beloved.

Next week, Assad is back. *frets* And more bad shit happens.

and you know, I thought Papa Bauer's line about "a better family" was OTT too, so I should have realized bad things were coming. I didn't see it until he asked for time alone with his son, and then I thought, "oh, fuck, no."

Meeee toooo, OMG. I didn't really see it until that moment, and even then, I just knew he was going to kill Graem, I didn't really think all the way to how evil he could be. Jack must take after his mother? meep.

And also the moment where Papa Bauer just stood at the door, and Jack saw him there, and suddenly all the fight went out of him and he stopped trying to kill his brother.

Oh man, yes. And also, right after Papa gives his little speech about "you deserve a better family" and then they're just sitting there, I can *feel* Jack needed or wanting some sort of physical contact with his father. There's this huge pregnant pause, but neither moves, and then Jack walks away and his *face*. I still can't get over it. Its totally disconcerting to see Jack so broken. *petshim*

How is he going to be when he figures out his father is behind it all? yipe.
