24 7.05 Day 7: 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM (2009) Motobo and his wife remain in the safe room but Jack may have found a plan B. As they are leaving, however, Agent Walker arrives and gives Jack and Tony a whole new dilemma. First Gentleman Henry Taylor feels he’s getting somewhere with his investigation into his son’s death while the deadline for President Taylor’s withdrawal is rapidly approaching. 7/10 Episode five: time for Jack to kill a friend or colleague for the greater good. Mind you, he’s had a lot of practice. It’s good to see that the violence of the show has been considerably toned-down and the show is better for it. The best thing about 24 has always been the moral quandaries, not the torture scenes and gratuitous violence. Annie Wersching continues to impress as Renee Walker and conveys the furious dejectedness at her impending death, that she has compromised her own principles and FBI laws of conduct and that someone she trusted, Jack Bauer, is a traitor. While we know better, Bauer does look as he if may be losing heart and can’t believe that he’s been put in this situation yet again. This 24 episode contains bad language and violence, unpleasant and gory scenes. Links Previous episode Next episode
