And after that the "Chief of Staff", and after that... Ok, I may be wrong, but the take home message is that there ARE people in-line as per procedures to take charge if the head honcho get's offed.

Apollo Leader Posted April 4, 2005 Posted April 4, 2005 From what I remember from last week's preview, it looks like the F-117 will be used for a ground attack. So the target could be Air Force One or even something else all together. I don't recall Air Force One being mentioned as the specific target. As for who would replace the president in the event of an emergency, you would have the vice president. I am a little rusty on my civics, so in no particular order you would then have the majority leaders of the House and Senate, the Chiefs of Staff (either Defense or State would be first), the Supreme Court, and so on.

Apollo Leader Posted April 5, 2005 Posted April 5, 2005 Just finished the episode half an hour ago (central time). Just a few comments: 1)Why was an F-117 sitting around with live munitions at some airfield near LA? 2)When Mitch Anderson (I think that's his name) got into and took off with this aircraft, I think somebody preparing the aircraft would have realized that this was not the pilot who flew it there and was to take off with it. 3)What was Mitch Anderson's motivation? Was it the money and/or his discharge? 4)I wish these writers would do a little research and find out that the F-117 has NEVER used air-to-air weapons opperationally, so it would be virtually impossible that this F-117 would have any such weapons. Since the Nighthawk has no radar, it can only be configured for Sidewinders. 5)Which leads to that the F-117 can not track other aircraft or targets by radar. At best, it could use it's FLIR to try to detect air-to-air targets. 6)Since Air Force One had several fighters giving it coverage and since they were looking for an incoming threat, they would have detect the F-117 when it got in close enough (either radar or IR) combined with that there was no other air traffic and no ECM being done by jamming aircraft. 7)There was no specific lockon onto Air Force One... he just aimed at the cluster of aircraft and fired. Geek boy rant complete. Quote
Apollo Leader Posted April 5, 2005 Posted April 5, 2005 * Secretary of Agriculture Mike Johanns Our former governor is #9 down the list. Quote
kalvasflam Posted April 5, 2005 Posted April 5, 2005 as much as I like to say that anything is possible. This is a bit too much... F-117 could've done better dropping bombs on the playboy mansion. At least that would've pissed off every ordinary American. Now, had Phoenix been a test version of the F-22, or even the YF-23, then I'd have believed it, and gave this episode props for being original. Quote

I think "Phoenix" was maybe just a call sign, since the aircraft was properly identified as an F-117 this episode. Stealing an F/A-22 from Edwards would have been more believable, but they probably didn't have the right stock footage to use. Quote

I know the call sign part... but it's just so sad, the Raptor would've been a better choice. Nighthawks were made for dropping bombs.... Heck, I would've settled for an F-15 used to escort the president. heh heh Quote

(keeping in mind its a tv show i'm sure none of this will appease the aviation buffs) 1. i believe it's b/c the f117 was destined to be transported to another base. perhaps carrying ammo is part of the deal. 2. given how fast events are unfolding i don't think so. also if you've ever been a part of any sufficiently large organization you know that things do not work like clockwork. 3. motivation has not been revelead 4. its a tv show - suspend your disbelief. if we start picking apart the show and making it 'accurate' we would be left with pretty much nothing. 5. see #4 6. see #4 7. see #4 Quote
UN Spacy Posted April 5, 2005 Author Posted April 5, 2005 OMG what an ending. Excellent recap EXO! But WHAT a coincidence that Air Force One happens to crash land without an hours driving distance of Marwan and crew. I guess this means Palmer will come back within the next one or two episodes? They even brought back ol' sneaky Mike Novick back into the fold. Just in case any of you guys were wondering what's the name of the HOT assassin chick. She's Dagmara Dominczyk. Quote

I usually type while the break is on. That beginning shoot out was awesome though. Jack is pretty handy with his knife, he musta learned how to shiv in prison. Quote
Blaine23 Posted April 6, 2005 Posted April 6, 2005 24... I love it... yet the show makes me hate it sometimes. Why introduce a very hot woman and kill her a few episodes later? And my wife is awesome - she immediately says, "hey that's the girl from Count of Monte Cristo." She can pretty much do this with damn near anyone on any TV show or movie ever. Ah, Nicole, we hardly knew ye. Dagmara Dominczyk - with a face like that, you don't need to have a pronounceable name. Quote
Jolly Rogers Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 24... I love it... yet the show makes me hate it sometimes.Why introduce a very hot woman and kill her a few episodes later? Cos Naked Mandy she ain't. Quote
Jolly Rogers Posted April 8, 2005 Posted April 8, 2005 Meh... Naked Mandy is overrated. Given 24's streak of killing women off, she's done an incredible job considering how she even outlasted Sherry Palmer. Quote
EXO Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 (edited) In case you missed it: The following takes place between 11PM and 12AM... 11:04 PM Chloe: Air Force One is down. 11:07 PM: Ralph: Mr. Vice President, you have to make preparation to take over the office. Vice President: ah crap... after all these months of not doing anything, now you want me to work. Vice President: Ralph... Weren't you on Airforce One last episode? 11:09 PM: Audrey: You have to go after the nuclear football, it's more important than Marwan... Jack: there's something else... what is it? Audrey: It's Paul, he has to go back to surgery. Jack: Audrey, listen... this is my fault, I took Paul with me hoping he would get shot... er I mean... nevermind, it's my fault! 11:11PM: Jason Gerard: Geez, it's a door with the Seal of the President. Kelly Gerard: It's locked! Jason: There's nothing behind it... its just a door that happen to land right side up. 11:18 PM: Buchanan: I sense some hostility. Is it about Michelle. Tony: Uh yeah! You're tapping my wife bitch! I mean... no hostility here... Buchanan: She still cares about you. Tony: HA! Burn! Buchanan: I still screwed her and probably will again. Tony: Bastid! 11:20 PM: Rescue Team: The President is still alive! Vice President: YES! 11:22 PM: Buchanan: The President is still alive. But he's in no shape to run the country. You have to invoke the 25th Amandment. Vice President: DOH!!! 11:27 PM: Jack: My direct number is 1(310) 597-3781. But only call me when you have to. Jason: OK! RIIIING! Jack: Hello? Caller: OMG! I am your biggest fan I remember you in Lost Boys and Stand By Me! Jack: Who is this? How'd you get my number? 11:47 PM: Jason: Jack! Where the f*ck are you? Jack... I can only shoot and run as fast as I can while you keep calling me! 11:53 PM: Jack: You and your wife have to split up. Jason: Funny that's the reason I brought her out here in the middle of the desert. 11:59 PM: Ralph: Sorry Mr. President. CTU just called and they said that terrorist have the nuclear football. Vice Pesident: Holy crap... this wasn't a good day to stop smoking crack! Edited April 12, 2005 by >EXO< Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 ahahah, good one exo! Damn that was a good episode. I was literally on the edge of my seat!!! Quote
Valkyrie23 Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 Great Recap! Yup, very intense episode....Now, who called the number? ??? I'll save you some trouble, the mailbox is full. Its a "Nextel phone for 24" as described by a man's voice (not Jack B). Sucks that there wasn't more to it, b/c its similar to what another show did: Scrubs did earlier this season, where a character's phone number was repeated in an episode and fans called and actually were greeted by Turk's (the character) voice mail. A few days later and still currently, that cell phone is lying around the set and anyone picks it up when it rings. And I mean anyone, from the writers, to the actors, to production people, fans have reported talking to many of them...Pretty cool for all the Scrubs fans out there. It would've been cool to be greeted by Jack's voice. A lot of the cast members of 24 have had their voice mails recorded with Jack's voice! Quote

do not disturb Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 anyone else want to strangle that bee-otch that gave up the football? jack did say, they were terrorists, that the football has complete access to all the nuclear devices in the US, and that they would be killed if they were found no matter what. yet the bitch gives up the football? i hate stupid amercian bitches. if i were jack, i would've put one between the eyes and called it day.
