So Tarin was killed in the back-to-back,Right?

I’m really really worried about this “emotional move”

@Danielle. Yeah, I wonder what that means, hope it’s not who I think it is:|

@marple I wouldn’t be surprised it he did it serves him the backstabber, can’t believe I actually liked him.

Yeah i think we all know that it’s something to do with Renee :(((

I would rather vote for Kim, not saying i wish that to happen.

Jack makes love to Dana at CTU.

Jack pops the question to Renee: Marry Me! Nowwww!!! Dammit !!

I want JAck and Renee alive and well. No unthinkable(s) please!

i’m guessing they get Renee and Jack trades Hassan for her, which would lead to some pretty serious fallout ..

it’s either renee or kim. renee probably kills kim

The clue is the S in the TV rating. The “unthinkable” might not necessarily be a bad thing. There have been tired cliches on the show, but it would be really bad to ask Jack to sacrifice anyone else. Today’s Jack would probably let terrorists win to save someone he loves. I just want to see him hand-to-hand against a bad guy and it be someone we might think could beat Jack.

Well isn’t Anil Kapoor only in for 16 episodes? He didn’t appear in one (or two hours?) so far so it could also involve him.

@ undisputedvipers: oooooh at the “S.” You’re right. I mean, Kayla and Tarin aren’t having any sexytime anymore so… LOL

Oh no. NO THEY CAN’T KILL RENEE!!!! :( I want Jack and Renee to stay together lol I love this show

It took some digging, but I found this from an interview with Annie Wersching.

PW: Lots of characters have been so badly burned by the events of one day they return the next season with the potential to switch sides, do you think Renee would ever turn against Jack?

Annie: I don’t think she would ever be a Tony — but then again, you never know! We’re only on episode 18, so we’ll see. But I think the reason she’s so completely dangerous this year is because she has nothing to lose! She doesn’t care if this mission kills her and that’s what Jack is really worried about, that Renee will just lose herself in this undercover world. Because the only thing more dangerous than a hero or a villain is the wild card!

At least with her response, we know she’s alive during episode 18? And NOT a terrorist?

Jack love renee but we see that she love him … i wish next nice saison ‘ saison 9 ‘ do it together (Jack and renee) so 24 + 24 = 48 so seed me 2 episode in one time ;)

why di they have to kill Renee, both Jack and Renee deserved a happy ending.
