I just played his scene. It is "Skyman."

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I have a question about the ending of the episode -- how does everyone know where to go, and get there in time? Web and Paul show up pretty handily, but the baddie didn't need to get off there, did he? How was Danny to get from one station to the next in time to meet the same train?
They've been studying the Jack Bauer method.

And then Paul and Web both end up at the right station - maybe it was the end of the line, no other choices for the train. yeah, that works. (as long as you don't actually know the LA subway system).
Maybe if they hadn't have gotten off there, Web would have gotten on the train?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Okay, that works for everything but the timing. Which is something.

Cindy! I will send you email this weekend. Promise.
Okay, that works for everything but the timing.
Okay, I just watched the end again. This may be stretching it, but Web leaves the group first and takes off, presumably to go up the stairs, but we never see that. Could he have doubled back and actually have gotten on the train in another car?
I have no idea how Paul got there as quickly as he did..

Oh, cool! I saw your reply in that lj. But I saw it in email. I deleted the message, and then I realized I couldn't remember whose journal it was in.

I may have to seize the cat.

This isn't on topic, even a little, but I want to tell you that I love you for saying "hadn't have" instead of "hadn't of." That is all. /grammar nerd

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
In the original script, some things worked better. There was that thing where the Skyman says something about how cool it is that the FBI is there, and Web says, "Glad we could entertain you."
It was in the promos. I think that in the script Web's suspicion of him is more obvious.
GARETH HOFF Skyman says. Skyman says.
DANNY So that gonna be the defense, Gareth? Man in the sky told you to hurt those ladies?
GARETH HOFF I’m sorry, I’m sorry.
DANNY Well, it was the sky man 's fault.
GARETH HOFF Skyman says follow the pretty ladies. Show me. Skyman can see. He can see. He’s watching.
His eyes shift up. Paul follows his gaze. They’re passing under a SECURITY CAMERA. Paul reacts to that.

Where's Web when that's all taking place?
