24 Season 6: Hr 20: Secy Heller - Take Your Attitude...

I knew Lisa Miller was not to be trusted! First, she's played by Kari Matchett, who last played a woman taken over by some sea creature alien from outerspace on Invasion last year. She was perfect and excellent in that role. So I was naturally suspicious as soon as she stepped off the plane with VP Daniels - the one and only Powers Boothe - on 24 this season, I can't remember exactly how many hours ago.

And, sure enough, she's sleeping with Stargate's Michael Shanks, who's some kind of bad guy giving info to the Russians. I'm still suspecting Jack's father is somehow involved. And now that Daniels and Lennox have Lisa working for them, we should find out soon.

Meanwhile ... Audrey's catatonic (I'm sorry, but for my money, she always seemed a little catatonic even in the best of circumstances). Nadia, who has taken over from Buchanan, at first is willing to let some robotic, overweening shrink "shock" her back to reality - even though the treatment could kill her. Doyle shows he's a good guy, helps Jack get Audrey away from the shrink, and Audrey is able to give Jack one useful piece of information. But just as things might be getting a tiny bit better, William Devane - former Secretary Heller, Audrey's father - comes in to CTU and lays an attitude on Jack - stay away from my daughter... you're cursed, Jack ... everything you touch winds up dying ...

Sheesh - doesn't Heller remember that Jack saved his and Audrey's lives two years ago, when Jack called Tony and the two shot their way out of a garage or something and saved Heller and Audrey? And didn't Heller make some serious errors last year?

You know what?

I'll be happy to see definitely Audrey and maybe Heller go, too.

Jack's sister-in-law - Graem's widow - was in the coming attractions. She's by far the best for Jack. Though, Kate Warner from Season 2 would be fine, too...
