Three episodes in and the tension is rising even further as Jack and the HazMat team are rapidly approaching Kyle Singer's house but after a confrontation with his parents he has fled and the bag of white powder has been ruptured! When they get there they soon establish that the powder was harmless; that is of little reassurance though as it just means that Kyle is the means of introducing it into the population so they must find him and isolate him before he becomes contagious. Meanwhile back in prison Salazar has arranged the kidnapping of his guard's family to force the guard to kill prison warden Luis Annicon. There is also a subplot involving the president's new partner who may be implicated in a perjury plot involving her ex-husband several years previously; the president believes that it is just a ploy to get money but it could damage the campaign as it is a difficult allegation to disprove.
This was a really good; the tension kept getting increased and just when you think it can't get any more exciting a major character gets shot in the neck... just in time for the end credits so we'll have to watch the next episode to learn whether or not he survives; and knowing 24's propensity for killing off major characters I wouldn't want to guess whether or not he makes it. If there was a weakness it was having a traitor working within CTU and being able to feed all the information to Salazar's men; it seems vetting and security are rather poor there given how often it seems to happen; I guess we can chalk it up to dramatic license though. The story with the presidential campaign has yet to get really interesting although I'm sure it is building up to something that will be important in later episodes... besides we need some quieter moments in between all the action!
