Who else is disturbed by Jack "offing" the despicable Dana Walsh?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't recall Jack ever offing anyone who didn't stand in the way of he and his objective. Isn't his big rationale for not following the president's orders that there is a wrong that needs to be righted regardless of whether the "greater good" suffers? Yet, his vigilante-like execution of Dana seems to sacrifice justice and right in favor of expediency (too much of a hassle to turn her over to authorities, besides, she deserved to die, and it felt good!). So, now that Jack is judge, jury and executioner. It's hard for me to reconcile the contradiction.
But if the writers are willing to turn JB into a psycho-vigilante-revenge-seeking-douchebag, then so be it. All I can say is that I'm glad it's coming to an end.
I certainly get your point, but the writers make it stoopid-easy to forget he's been away for like two days and just lost Rene a few hours ago.
I thought there was some magnificent acting from Katie though.
