ONLINE EXCLUSIVE: Kiefer Sutherland poses as balding Russian

Issue date: 2/17/06 Section: Entertainment
Last week we left off with Lynn McGill taking a mashing from his sister's tag-along mugger. Of course the writers of 24, make no reference to the event in this episode. McGill cleans himself up, and heads back to the office, all in a day's work.

Back at the president's playpen, Cummings' wife, who might have to go back to loving Raymond, shows up to claim the body. Of course, Novick and Logan decide to cover up the whole traitor episode to save face for the administration. Martha disagrees; she actually wants to honor that Palmer guy who saved the country from a couple of nuclear threats, a dozen dirty bombs laced with Cordilla virus, and overpriced auto insurance.

With Rossler out of commission, Jack's has to dig out his best Russian accent when Erwich calls Rossler's phone to setup a meeting to get the denotation chip. Luckily for Jack, Erwich blurts out the location, no questions asked. Even luckier for Jack, Erwich is sending his henchmen to the meeting point, meaning Jack can get away posing as an aging Russian man.

Armed with his high tech two-way ear wax, Jack heads to the meeting point. Jack's having a really lucky hour; Erwich's men confuse an aging Russian man with the profile of Kiefer Sutherland ­- it happens to best of us. Since Jack played with remote detonators as a kid, all he needs is a Chloe walk through and he installs the chip like a pro. Things are really falling into place for Jack this hour; this might not be the longest day of his life. Then again, the terrorists decide they need to take Jack along on a field test to detonate the nerve gas at the local Sunrise Mall.

That means its decision time for President Big Boy back the Martha's Vineyard of the west coast. The terrorists have 19 more of these canisters and Counterterrorism Unit's got not way to get to them. If they let them release one at the mall, Buchanan and McGill are positive they can follow the terrorists back to the other 19, sacrificing about 900 lives for 100,000. Of course the president's diaper springs a leak, and he needs a moment to think about it. Audrey's also got a problem with it, but that's just cause she's Audrey. The FCC has banned FOX from showing Logan and Audrey in the same room. There simply wouldn't be enough Zoloft available to treat the nation of their contagious depression. In the end, Logan settles with Buchanan, consoling himself by throwing in his classic, "You better do it" line at the end. If CTU doesn't come up with these canisters, Logan is taking his ball and going home.
