7:43:13. Soul Patch is still at work, Mujibro and Sirajunior are waiting for their moment to denounce and resist all forms of terrorism, and DoDder paces the CTU floor. She approaches Soul Patch and asks, "Ostensibly work-related reason for the two of us to have a scene together?" Soul Patch responds, "Computer search that will take a few minutes and give us a silent pause to fill." He asks her, "Did you tell Bitchelle what happened today?" He's retroactively recognized the change in his wife's attitude, I see. "I said that Kiefer called you," DoDder downplays. "I didn't say you were living with anyone, if that's what you mean." "She probably already knows that and she probably couldn't care less," Soul Patch chuckles bitterly. But enough about his dysfunctional relationship. What about DoDder's? He asks how things are going with Kiefer in the field. "It's different," she says, "a lot different than Washington." "Yeah," Soul Patch duhs, "it is different." He goes on to say that he couldn't believe it when he heard about Kiefer's desk job. "He said he was happier this way," DoDder says. "Uh-huh," Soul Patch says. DoDder just looks at him. Kim Raver can act, I've decided. Too bad DoDder's such a dip. ["This is always the way with her; she acted the pants off a character on Third Watch who was unfortunately written to bug the shit out of everyone." -- Sars] Soul Patch asks if she thinks Kiefer will go back to wearing a suit. She responds, "After the hell Kiefer's been through today, you think he'd want to come back to this?" "Some people are more comfortable in hell," Soul Patch says. Sounds like somebody was reading a little Milton in prison. Which, now that I think of it, probably shouldn't be there. "Are you talking about Kiefer or yourself?" DoDder shoots back. Ooh, good one.
Before he can answer, Lispy Skip calls out, "I think we found them!" Everyone converges on his desk as he explains that there are a bunch of radios using the same frequency closing in on a spot about a quarter mile from MF HQ. "You were right," Curtis says to Soul Patch. "He's actually drawing them in." Bitchelle meets Soul Patch's "I told you so" gaze. He probably hasn't had a chance to use that on her in a while.
7:45:42. More commandos are moving into position around the store. Old MFer dashes up to where Handsome Black Commando is and gives the order to move in. Commandos start opening fire. Kiefer returns fire, with predictably deadly accuracy. Grayadder has switched to a pistol for some reason. The brothers stand with their fellow American and some British guy in denouncing and resisting all forms of terrorism.
