why did the missile that struck the hospital seem to be 20 times bigger than any other missile from the drone? The one hitting the hospital seem to blow it to hell, and the one at the stadium seemed to just blow a hole in the middle of the grass.
Just seemed a little odd to me, but maybe I missed something.
Shockwave from the explosion blew out the building. Think about how far from the center of the field the seats are. All it would really do is blow a huge hole in the ground. I think it would have been a bigger hole, but then again I'm not a rocket scientist.
Oh, and he dead. If you watch that sequence, you see him take his hat and glasses off, and look up. The drone had just flown over and had him in his sights just for a few seconds. There's no way that Chloe could get that loop in place while they targeted him.
Or could she? They seemed to take a few seconds on the still shot of him doing facial recognition. And did they ever cut back to live feed after that, or did Mama Terrorist just pull the trigger?

I would have to imagine the Brits would be even more pissed at Heller for sacrificing himself at Wembley than their soldiers dying from the drone strike.
Maybe a plot for the next season? (if there is one) US vs Redcoats, just like that South Park episode.

I was also wondering why Jack didn't just land the chopper at midfield. I guess it was so they could blow up Heller like that. But it didn't make sense that they'd need security codes for Wembley when Jack could just drop him off then fly away. Maybe look for drones. They gave him a civilian chopper. Why not a military one with guns and missiles. If anyone could shoot a drone out of the sky from a chopper it would be Jack MF Bauer.

We as the viewer knew that President Heller would be done in by the drone strike, but I didn't get the sense that the characters in the show had any way of knowing that was going to happen, but they certainly acted like they did.

So what's the next move? We know that Jordan is dead, supposedly, so there's no loose end there for Navarro. Seems like Margot's son wants to blow up London. And now that Heller is, supposedly, dead and the new Pres will be sworn in, what happens between Boudreau and the Russians? I'm betting there's some Russians in play soon and it shifts towards Jack on a kamikaze mission to save Audrey, with Chloe's help after she re-hijacks the drones.

Huh?

I liked when Jack stormed that compound by himself to rescue Heller and Audrey that one time. This could be an interesting plot change.
However, what strikes me as odd, has the Vice President even been introduced? Does it matter that Heller has signed everything over to him, as we, the audience, hasn't even met him? Did we know Logan before he took over for Keeler?

They have put a heavy emphasis on Navarro putting his phone in that magical untraceable case when he contacts the villains, but did anyone catch that he didn't do that when he spoke to the hit man chasing Jordan, and that the line reading from Bratt was clearly meant to be implicating him.

I just figured it was something to do with the weirdo that Chloe was working with. He wouldn't need to be traceable in their communications but just telling the hit man his location seemed ok.

This is really not Bratt's fault, but the line reading informing the hit man,
He clearly states the location, asks if he is alive and then tells him to take care of it.
It was so forced that it felt like it was clearly going to be played back as a recording later for the viewer or probably for Agent Morgan to discover.
I am probably wrong and just looking too much in to it.

Probably so. Because I seem to recall that he used that device on his phone for that call.

Definitely gives me some hope. Also, if you watch next week's promo, they say that the harazis still have one more drone which they are targeting London with. Perhaps Margot dumped the others in Dover and then learned Heller tricked her, leaving her with just this one? What else would prompt her to go back on her word, especially with just one drone? Unless her son seizes it out of disagreement with her, that is

Hospitals have O2 lines running through the building and tons of pressurized lines/rooms/etc. they're rather explosive building. Not accounting for natural gas lines required for their generators, as they may run on diesel which should be relatively non-explosive.

Speaking 24, I'm watching an episode of house and jack's wife is on here as the patient. Damn she is annoying is this role too.
Posted on 6/23/14 at 1:28 pm to purplepylon
Its becoming clear that without Chloe, Jack would be a 5'2" dude with an attitude problem.
SHE is the superhero.
