On this week's 24, Tony Almeida's ex-wife Michelle -- who left him because he went to prison saving her life (essentially for committing all the crimes Jack Bauer committed in the first season, but without being the star of the show) -- suddenly and improbably came around.
In a touching moment, they decided to both quit working at CTU, just as soon as the latest nuclear crisis has been solved. Then, as Tony walks out the door to help Jack hunt down terrorists, Michelle says to him -- and I quote -- "be careful."
Is she deliberately trying to kill him? She's probably a mole, right? And she realizes that the surest way to kill a law enforcement official is to dangle a happy retirement in front of him, and watch him walk into bullets. He gets kidnapped at gunpoint within the hour. Amazing.
It all makes me flash back to the first episode of the season, when we made bets on how much time would pass between the introduction of Jack's new girlfriend, and her inevitable kidnapping. (Less than 45 minutes, as it turned out.) For some reason, she still hasn't revealed that she speaks a foreign language and is therefore evil. But it's only a matter of time.
