TV Review: 24 Season Six - Hour 21: News Flash! Zhou-Zhou's Petals Storm CTU!

Nadia comes to see Jack and tells him that Heller left with Audrey, and will also be filing a restraining order against him. Jack wants to go to Bloomfield but Nadia kindly reminds Jack that he's still grounded, so it's no. "Dammit Nadia!" He does want revenge in the worst way against Cheng but gave his word to Wayne Palmer that he'd recover the Secret Squirrel Sub Circuit Board Device (SSSCBD) so that is his first priority. He pleads, begs, gives Nadia some wicked puppy dog eyes, and even rolls around on the floor of the holding cell, but Nadia remains firm.

Chloe is back (yay!), very quiet but working. Milo, of course notices that she's subdued and asks her what's going on. Before Chloe can go on full snark defense, Morris butts in and announces that they are broken up. Chloe is embarrassed and jumps at the chance to go deliver paperwork to Marilyn and Josh. Yeah, remember the other Bauers? They're still at CTU. I wonder if they've got Behrooz with them.

Nadia delivers a stirring motivational speech to the TAC team headed out to Bloomfield. She tells them what nasty things will happen if the SSSCBD leaves the country, so they better be ready.

"At my signal – unleash Hell!"

Doyle is liking this new, confident Nadia. Milo is not liking that Doyle is liking that Nadia is…well you get the idea.

Last hour, we saw Cheng getting all frustrated with the poorly performing SSSCBD. Now he's gathered a bunch of goons and baddies and hostiles and is plotting an "attack," but the target name is not mentioned. It could be the same unnamable country in the Middle East. It could be a school, a hospital, the White House? But he won't say! He's so sinister, so inscrutable! Bad, bad Cheng!

In the comfort — and I use that word loosely — of an empty lounge area at CTU, Josh is down and depressed and wishing he was never born. Marilyn tries to reassure him that his dad and grandpa were not all that terrible. Then she tries to convince him to take a nap. Yeah he looks real relaxed. Not.

Little Lisa has to go back home to Boy Toy Spy Bishop. Lennox has hatched a plan to feed Bishop some false Intel. She's been coached, and her bag is outfitted with audio and video surveillance. But poor thing, she admits she's not sure she can go through with the charade. Daniels nearly chokes at this.

"Listen little Missy, you had no problems lying your pants off to my face, so you're gonna keep lying, see? You're gonna keep lying while you take off your pants, your blouse, your Victoria's Secret Stuff…"

Tom et al. are watching the whole exchange with their tongues hanging out. Woohoo!

For some unknown reason, Chloe decides to bring Marilyn to see Jack. This causes Marilyn to regress to the behavior of a two-year old.

Phillip is really Stretch Cunningham in disguise, looking for Arch and the boys down at Kelseys. And Zhou-Zhou's petals? Oh, that's pretty funny, MK!
