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

Jack does nothing without torment, up to and including taking a pee, I'm pretty sure.

His character is standingly gutted, because he's the one who does things so the "good" guys don't have to. He's Mr. Plausible Deniability, and it's left him alone, alone, alone, and also harrowed.

Will he be extra alone because of this season's torture? More alone than stopping the surgery on the good guy who'd taken the bullet saving his life (and who died soon after) so the bad guy could get sewn up, because he had info?

Remains to be seen, but it'll be hard to tell the sources apart, when all is said and done.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I think God has a Jack Bauer complex.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

That would explain all the smiting.

What is even happening?

To be fair, it doesn't take much to understanding smiting, at least where humans are the smitten, when and where smiting capability is a given.

I'd totally be a smiter.

Smite. Smote. Smitten. The words are meaningless.

Ahh, see, you've over-smit yourself. Step back from the thunderbolt for a bit and your joy in smiting will return.

So, I heard Tony dies in the finale. I'm assuming it's true, since he and Michelle got their teary goodbye in.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

oh what bullshit. It kinda looks like he might be a goner.

in other news, "Charmed" was renewed for God's sake. So this finale should be interesting.

What is even happening?

Yeah. I said goodbye to him last night, as soon as he started telling her he wanted them to walk away from it and start anew.

Darn it. I love Tony.

In other 24-cast news, in one of the articles I read about this week's upfronts, apparently Dennis Haysbert has a pilot for a show, in the new season, but last I knew whatever network it was for, hadn't made their pick-up announcements. Sorry for being a font of nothing. I just woke up. I'm not used to waking up this late.

Up with the sun

Yeah, I really don't get that. Aren't they supposed to all die at the end of this finale?
