Jack and Audrey are started to get real close again, which can only mean one thing: Audrey will die (prediction)

Jack's plan to stop walt or whatever his name is went through, but it took longer and had more turns than expected. Jack tortured the guy as well... fucking awesome

and the nerve gas wasn't inside the cargo box like it was supposed to be, because the terrorists found out about a secondary detonator.

This episode was really fuckin good if you ask me... it showed what everyone is made of for the most part (as if we didnt know jack already, we go deeper into his character still)

I don't watch 24 but I do have a nagging question: does Jack stay awake for the full 24 hours? Or is there an occasional episode where he is 'napping'?

So, these consecutive seasons of the show... are they back to back days?

Because he's really hardcore if this is season four and he's still awake after 72 hours. Does the man ever show fatigue or start to hallucinate?

The second season took place a year later, the 3rd took place about 6 months later, etc.

There is something that doesn't make any sense to me. Say you are Cummings, and you are letting a bunch of terrorists steal nerve gas out of the country so that you can remotely detonate it and kill them all once it's in their camp. Why in the FUCK would you send a guy carrying your remote detonator to close the deal? The terrorists aren't even supposed to know your detonator exists, so why would you stupidly give it to a guy they are likely to kill?

It just seems to me that any intelligent person would keep the remote detonator far away from the terrorists or anyone they knew about, in which case they could have tortured that guy and he wouldn't have known anything, and the scum would be happily on their way to get remotely blown up. But instead the deal-closer was carrying the detonator, and the terrorists killed him and took it, and now there's no stopping htem [aside from Bauer].

So am I missing something or were Cummings' actions completely illogical [beyond the whole "half-cooperate with terrorists in order to kill them" scheme]

from what i can tell, the guy had to hold it to the canisters to extract the det code (or something.. i dont know much about remote detonators) so he had to have it on him to do this.
