Day 2: 4:00 PM-5:00 PM (Episode 9, 01/07)

Didn't they originally say the bomb was supposed to go off in the next 24 hours, but they've since shortened it to "today"?

I can't remember. But I wouldn't look for the bomb plot to end anytime before 4-5 or so AM.

Can you believe we're 9 hours into this thing, and still haven't gotten very far?

the day is flying by

I can't figure out why Nina had the ammo - Why would he trust her?

[cali]

Good question Stepscot. He should have been able to shove them in his jacket or something.
Oh well, it's still entertaining!

[stepscot]

Yep, definitely entertaining!

[LG.]

and he had no reason to take off her handcuffs either, as he didn't give her a gun and she was only watching the other guys and telling him where they were. No reason whatsoever for that or giving Nina all the ammo, except to move along the Jack in Jeopardy plot. I am almost certain that in teh first episode the source in Asia said "today" as I immediately thought, what the hell are they going to do with 7 episodes after midnight then, kidnap Kim a dozen more times. :rolleyes

[brenda]

Anybody else think the show is beginning to drag? All the subplots -- the president's bitch of a wife, the kidnapping of that whinning brat, etc. -- are ruining the tension.

Hello? There's a nuclear bomb about to explode. And Jack seems to be the only one who feels the clock ticking away. So much so that maybe the pressure is making him crack. Why else would he be stupid enough to give that double-crossing bitch Nina all the ammo?
