Goofs

When Jack is being pursued by the attack helicopters they are referred to as Air Force Helicopters. Two issues, first and foremost only the US Army operates AH-64 Apaches as seen in the scene. Second, the Air Force does not maintain or operate any gunships except for Pave Low (CH-53) helicopters used in the rescue of downed pilots. In 1948 an agreement was reached between the newly formed Air Force and the Army which detailed what aircraft the two services could operate.

User Reviews

A Mixed episode

the last few episodes were disappointing on 24 standards and now it is starting to pick up.

First of the pacing of the episode was much improved and CTU Is finally starting to do something in the episode On the peace conference plot Taylor is starting to be like Logan to keep the peace conference alive.

Here is the biggest problem,it is starting to get very predictable and lousy.

On Jacks side of things after getting off the helicopter he goes to his only friend to get weapons and uses his house as a base and goes after Dana Walsh who was escorted from CTU to be tortured for information.
