I am going to guess the President handed over 2 Chinese Nationals where 1 was a convicted violent felon and the other was a spy. I also guess the consulate surviving wife received a giant monetary settlement for wrongful death. Lastly a double agent was given up
24 hours later, Cheng has a badly burnt face and ends up being detained 😂😂😂😂. Also Jack being imprisoned in China was like seeing Jesse Pinkman becoming a meth cook slave
After David Palmer, James Heller is the best president on 24! Just when i thought i couldn't love Heller's character more, this scene proved me wrong. This is when James Heller became one of my favorite characters ever on 24. He's a TRUE patriot. He's always thinking about the greater good and considers it far more important than his family. This is perhaps the biggest difference between him and Jack. No matter how much Heller loves his daughter, he is still willing to sacrifice her for the sake of the country or for the world. Jack could never sacrifice his own daughter. Heller made the right call by going to confront Logan and trying to extort him to resign because that way the country would've been spared from national disgrace and Logan would've gotten off easier maybe even without punishment because a sitting president cannot be prosecuted. And Logan was on the verge of accepting Heller's offer before Henderson called him. Jack was so blinded by revenge that he didn't think about the bigger picture. Heller was thinking what's best for the country, Jack wasn't.
No matter how much i love Jack's character, this was a very satisfying moment. I applauded when Heller striked at Jack. Everything that Heller said was absolutely true. It would've been thoughtless to expose the recording and have the president arrested, it would've crippled the American peoples faith and believe in the country and the presidency. I don't think people would've wanted to see yet another JFK incident. I don't think that's what Jack would've wanted. Besides Heller knocking Jack to the ground was his way of saying "This is for getting Paul killed".
No heller was wrong, ignorant, and reckless. He thought he could threaten logan into resigning but logan was prepared to deal with him. For jack and the rest of ctu it was about exposing logan and if that meant doing it by removing him for office then so be it.
The guy just landed in the USA after 2 years in a Chinese prison. Can someone at least giving the man a Chick-fil-a sandwich and a Diet Coke before you tell him he is going to die.
These government agents should realise any time it would be their turn next. Everyone is expendable and they don’t care about their loyalty to the country.
It was his insurance, but the script writers always makes the villains smarter than everyone. Why would he not make copies first or take jack and his daughter somewhere safe
There was a line in the Season 6 trailer that was cut from this scene: Cheng saying "Jack Bauer is no longer China's enemy". What a better show 24 would've been had they kept that in, and spared us from one of the most contrived and pointless villains in the show.
The understood lesson in this life (Never fight for fake case fake freedom nor the one god JUDA hostile ever) CEO of the Oval office will pay the accomolated comissions + its very late fees I hope the bill wont reach the USA federal reserve bank total balance
The character President Palmer was preconditioning for the arrival of Obama in 2008. just like Madam Secretary was Preconditioning for Hillary as President. Trump threw a wrench into the plans.
@@thebigbop5866 That would make more sense. I could've sworn though I remember it the other way around. He dove his car into the lake and then a episode or so later he was still alive. He told Jack and Audrey he'd fix things. He arrived in a chopper and seemed nice and then changed the game plan as seen here.
@@VanillaLimeCoke Ah I see where you got confused, he did tell Jack and Audrey he'd fix things, but when he was in the car just before he drove off the cliff. That was the last he was seen in season 5.
The stupid part of these entire scene, Bauer has been confined for months, tortured for months, then ALL of a sudden, transported to USA, having been tortured HOW long, and is IMMEDIATELY required to support USA interests??? Bauer was sold out! He AGAIN is to be turned over and tortured and killed?? Talk about a BIG F-U.
24 had to really put alot of torture scenes in. Days 1 - 3 had its share of torture scenes. But in Day 4, I'm certain there were more torture scenes than the first 3 days COMBINED. Day 5 continued with even more torture scenes. By the time Day 6 arrived and this scene was unfolding, I was just thinking, 'this has become a normal routine now on 24'
@KajolKhan-qj5ne No.... Like Jack said to Mason in S2, you want results....you're going to get your hands dirty. I'd suggest rolling up sleeves. But I didn't expect every single episode to have a torture scene. Every 5-6 episodes definitely. 24 is definitely not for weak hearts. But compare how intense Season 4 is to the other first three seasons.
