24 Season 1 Finale

Ok, so I finished season 1. What can I say but WOW! No one is safe in 24 except Jack. You could be killed off at anytime. Anyway, I left off last around 4PM. Here is what has happened since then.

Kim: First of all, this chick is so annoying. You would think growing up with freakin Jack Bauer as your dad you would have a few survival instincts, but no, she has none. Look what happens to her, she gets in a car wreck, goes to the house of the loser who kidnapped her (Rick). I mean seriously, does she not have any friends or something. While there, she is involved in a shootout and a drug bust gone wrong. Wow, that's a shocker. She is arrested, gets in fights at the jail, carjacked, kidnapped again, held hostage again, and finally escapes because she throws coffee on the dudes face. Anyway, I am done writing about her.

Terri - She gets amnesia from the car wreck and forgets Jack, literally. How could you forget about Jack. I tried. It is impossible. He is too cool. So anyway, Terri the weakling has amnesia and doesn't know anything. Somehow she gets back to her house and is about to be killed by the assassins and Tony saves her. I haven't written about him yet because his personality is like a dead log, and he was romantic with Nina, but whatever, he saves her. Good for him. Terri is headed back to CTU.

Senator Palmer - Let me catch you up on him. He won the primary on super tuesday. I am sure he will be the next Pres. He bonded with his really short son Keith. His wife Sherry goes behind his back and tries to set him up with Patty the intern. I was grossed out and totally embarrassed when she started massaging his shoulders and her flirting skills were terrible. Anyway, Palmer tells Sherry get out of my life. You are not fit to be the first lady - ooh vicious Palmer. I am predicting that this will come back to get him. Oh yeah, did I mention that Jack saves his life again. I think that makes 3 or 4 times in 1 day. Very impressive Jack.

George Mason - I am starting to like him. Remember this guy? It's Jack's boss and Jack shot him in the leg with a tranquilizer in the first episode. I didn't like Mason at first because he was kind of shifty and it looked like he had a glass eye, but he is growing on me.

Agent Jack Bauer - The hero with great hair. So Jack discovers who the terrorists are and what they are up to and tracks them down to a deserted wildlife refuge. Mason wants to leave (I think he was scared) but Jack stays. Good instincts Jack because what is there in the wildlife refuge??? . . . .A Top secret Government Detention Center. cool. Jack approaches it and get Tasered and he collapses. Who then appears, the La Bamba dude, Lou Diamond Phillips. It was kind of distracting because I kept wanting to hum La Bamba. anyway, he is the agent in charge and they are expecting a prisoner, none other than Victor Drazen. This is the man who started this all. Jack supposedly killed him a few years back but he is alive. In a nutshell, Victor Drazen's sons break him out of prison, capture Jack and give him his orders. Kill Palmer etc. We've heard it all before. Come on you terrorists , give us some new material. Anyway, Jack fools them, like only he can do in Bauer style. He's a tricky guy.

Now I am going to side track to Nina for a moment. So far, she has seemed all concerned for Jack and his family. I knew it was all an act though. There is no moment in time that I have had any kind feelings toward Nina . . .or should I say . . . Yelena! That's right! She is a dirty agent. Told you blogger readers. She was talking in German conspiring about Jack with the terrorists and Terri discovers her and gets tied up, of course. No women 24 would actually obey Jack or do anything cool. So Nina ties her up and is trying to escape CTU because her gig is up. All I can say is goodbye toothpick legs.

Meanwhile, Jack learns that Nina is the mole and is headed back to CTU to get here. He has a shootout with her and gets her at gunpoint with his gun on her temple. I am thinking to myself, "shoot her Jack, shoot her." This is how much I dislike her. She makes me think bad thoughts and I am such a peace loving kind of gal. For reasons unknown, Jack doesn't shoot her and she gets arrested. By for now Yelena. I am sure the producers at 24 will bring you back to annoy us all some more.

Jack goes into CTU to find his family. He sees Kim, hugs and kisses etc. Looks for Terri and what does he discover, Terri is DEAD!! What???!!!! Nina shot and killed her. Jack collapses in grief and season 1 is over.

I wasn't really that sad she was dead, but I was sad for Jack. I had to go watch the alternate ending where she lives just so I could feel better.

Now I can't wait for season 2!
Here is what I am predicting.
Kim will annoy me senseless. Jack will try to avenge Terri's death. There will be more weak, wimpy women, and of course a high body count of dead evil dudes that are trying to destroy earth in 24 hours.

Later.
