Previously on 24 4am – 5am: Olivia Taylor wants to have Jonas Hodges killed so she sets it in motion. Then she backs out at the last minute, but he’s killed anyway. Ruh roh. Jack and Agent Walker close in on the patsy that Tony is going to set up for the attack scheduled for later that morning. When they arrive at the apartment, the patsy’s brother stabs the man holding him hostage and Jack rushes to save his life as he’s the only one who can tell them where Tony was headed w/ the patsy. The patsy was convinced to cooperate when Tony threatened his younger brother’s life.
And now…
The following takes place between 5am and 6am…
Tony’s evil sidekick chick checks in with a member of the “group.” She says that the bioweapon should be deployed within the hour and about 8-10K people will be infected in a D.C. train station.
Jibraan a.k.a the patsy they’re setting up to take the fall knows that they’re going to hurt people and blame it on him, but he doesn’t know what exactly. Tony orders him to take the train to a certain stop. They’ll be monitoring him.
At the FBI offices, Chloe punks Janis by pointing out she knows how to do all kinds of shit that Janis doesn’t including act.
The guy left watching Jibraan’s little brother is willing to talk once Jack tells him they’ll let his ass bleed to death if he doesn’t. He doesn’t know where Tony is or what the target is, but he can call Tony. They listen in as he comes up with some b.s. reason to talk to Tony, but Chloe can’t get a fix on Tony’s location.
Jibraan tries to signal for help by talking to a token clerk in the train station. When she refers him to a nearby cop, he finds that the cop is in on it. He has no choice but to get his ass on the train.
Olivia meets with the guy that helped her set up the hit on Jonas Hodges. He said that the hit man called him when the money didn’t show and he told him it was okay to go ahead with the hit. He knew Olivia was good for the money. She waited too late to grow a soul he tells her. He also tells her she needs to pay that man his money.
Kim calls her husband and tells him her flight has been delayed. Her husband wonders if that’s a sign she should stay to be with Jack. She notices someone watching her as she’s about to go through airport security.
On the train, Jibraan is being watched by the evil woman in a disguise. She sets a timer on the bioweapon canister, kicks it under a seat, and then gets off the train. Jibraan watches her walk away. She calls in to Tony that the weapon will go off when the train is stopped a certain station.
Chloe has Tony’s location and calls in to Jack. Jack rams Tony’s van and then puts him a sleeper hold when he stumbles out.
I want to learn how to put mofos in a sleeper hold!!!
Jack beats Tony’s ass in an effort to get Tony talking. It doesn’t work. With Janis’ help they figure out a way to patch into Jibraan’s earpiece. Jack tells him that his bro is safe. He talks Jibraan through finding the weapon under the seat after the train is emptied. When he finds it, it has a little over one minute before it will go off. He tells Jibraan to run it outside. He tries to, but is stopped by a cop because some guy on the train snitched that Jibraan looked suspicious. Damn, a Muslim can’t even ride the damn train sweaty without raising alarms.
Jibraan screams that he has a bomb. WHAT? This plan, amazingly, works. He runs outside just as Jack arrives to take the bomb from him. He tosses it in a sealed compartment of a truck just as it explodes.
Jack is so P.I.M.P.
Kim is still suspicious of the guy watching her. Turns out, he’s watching her for Jack.
Evil chick calls in to her boss who says that Tony needs to be eliminated now that he’s in custody. She says it’s not necessary because Tony won’t be in custody for long. They have another play.
Kim asks the wife of a couple she’s been chatting with to watch her bag while she runs to the restroom and the husband goes for coffee. The husband kills the man watching Kim in the restroom.
Aaron Pierce threatens to stop working for Olivia because she is acting all sketchy and left the White House with secret service detail. She comes up with some b.s. story and he pretends to buy it. He later calls Kanan and asks if the C.O.S’s office still has the voice-activated recording software installed in it. He says it does, but that Aaron will need his thumb print to access it. When he suspects it may have something to do with putting Olivia’s ass in trouble, Kanan says he can be at the White House within the half hour.
In the office, Olivia finally sends the payment to the hit man.
Janis wants an apology from Chloe for assuming she didn’t know her job. Chloe is all, “Yeah, you got the wrong one. I don’t do that.”
Jibraan is reunited with his brother. Awwww.
The murdering hubby at the airport returns with the coffee and signals to his wife that he killed the guy watching Kim. While Kim reads a magazine oblivious, he moves his laptop so that it’s taking a video of Kim. The evil bitch then calls Jack and links the live feed to his phone. These people have some kickass phones.
She tells Jack that if he doesn’t help Tony escape, they’ll murder Kim. She makes him put on his earpiece and leave the line open so she can listen in. Jack gets in the van with Tony, Agent Walker and some other agents. The evil lady tells him that she’ll let him know when to make a move and if any of the agents get in the way, he’ll have to kill them or Kim dies.
Tick… tock… tick… tock…
Jack gonna beat dat ass!
The real threat is over and I can’t believe we’re gonna end this great season with a Kim-Bauer’s-in-trouble-again storyline. Ugh.
