Poignant episode in a way you won't expect
26 May 2014
Warning: Spoilers
After the excellence and that old rushing quality of that last week 24 which reminded us why this show was one of the best in its firsts years I was expecting something of a letdown with this one. And many could argue against me or in favor to me, but this fifth episode reaches the perfect mark for me thanking its powerful drama and its riveting feelings between the main characters in the story.

The story can be more of the same and that thing pushes 24 out of a league that recent shows like Hannibal can afford. But in classic 24 terms: this episode is a triumph. The first episode of the entire miniseries where the characters and their choices are the drivers in the story instead the action or the breathtaking pace.

This is 24, yes, but improved if we put it in comparison with many of the episodes of the original series that looked like transitional ones. This could even beat the previous one in order to become the best of the season yet. Jack and Audrey are one remarkable proof of it.

Let's see what happens next! Just one last thing: please make this season of 24 the last. Despite it's being a great time at the TV, this show has no more to offer. Everything has been said and to continue this just will put the level down to the worse.
