“I have the bombs!!” “I can only give you the targets that you want!!” “We got one shot at this!!” “President Palmer is the only one who can stop this nuclear strike!!” “They’re taking him out of the coma!!” “Sandra Palmer gave her consent!!” “Move in on the house now!! Move in on the house now!!” “If you don’t stop now, I will compel you to stop!!” “All teams!! Take out your targets!!” “He’s crashing!! Get a code team in here right away!!”
TV Guide says:

Gredenko puts his Plan B into action; new evidence about a CTU agent comes to light; and Karen tries to shift the balance of power. Noah Daniels: Powers Boothe. Dmitri Gredenko: Rade Sherbedgia.

What is TV Guide not telling us? “Dr. Robert Hume” believes he knows what happens. Beware!! Gigantic enjoyment-squelching spoilers lurk in the invisotext! -In one of the weirdest series developments yet, Gredenko calls the guy who actually got them into CTU's system (some nobody independent contractor) so they can get back into it. The guy's secret weapon? His brother is Rain Man. Seriously. His secret weapon is his autistic savant hacker brother. -Ricky (sorry, I refuse to use whatever his character name is) finds evidence that Nadja isn't the mole, but covers it up so he won't get busted. -The NSA woman tries to convince Palmer's sister to wake him up to stop the nuclear strike. Despite the harm it may do to him, she consents and they set about trying to wake him up. -Eventually, Ricky gives the evidence in and Nadja is freed. She's all pissy with Milo for letting them bust her in the first place, but then they make out so everything's okay. (Note to self: Use this tactic in workplace more often.) -Jack and friends track down the guy with the Rain Man brother. They end up injuring the guy so they can't use him to catch Gredenko--but they can use Rain Man! So they set up an elaborate plan where Rain Man will wear an earpiece and Jack will instruct him on how to give Gredenko whatever it is he wants. -Palmer crashes! Things don't look good for the prez! -While it is totally bizarre and almost feels like it's from a different show, the Jack and Rain Man plot ends up being pretty tense and well-done. In the end, they pull it off and Gredenko is captured. -Meanwhile, the carriers are in place and just about to launch when--Palmer wakes up and calls off the strike! Whew! "Screw you" says the VP (still figuratively) and says Palmer's not fit for duty. Get the Attorney General in here so we can nuke Iran already!! Dink-dank-dink-dank-dink-dank.... 9 p.m. Monday. Fox.
