Sweating blood / Denied your baby / Weapons and bioterror
Great. The TV channel had sound issues AGAIN. Oh well. In House, they thought that the patients (a single dad and his daughter) would be exposed to mold. Daughter says that they never go anywhere except work and school. The dad was trying to go somewhere, but the doctors stopped him. "I have an appointment!" "You'll have to wait... his pupils are responsive. Maybe he's ASLEEP!" So maybe sleepwalking / insomnia isn't a symptom, but maybe it's narcolepsy triggered by the environment. Let's see where the guy's dreams take him while he's unconscious of what he's doing!
Dr. Cuddy met with some girl in a bar, and was concerned about the rash on her arm. Ah yes, adoptive mothering. Then Cuddy and someone else went after the patient in a car: ah, he's a john for cocaine in his "other" life. Cocaine explains the sleepwalking, but not the other stuff. So then they see the hooker again, and ask for the watered-down cocaine. It's cut with MILK... what a toxin! Kidney failure - and no, we're not going to get the daughter involved in a transplant! House goes into an operating room where the girl is giving birth to a baby with underdeveloped lungs, who is Cuddy's new baby daughter. Then Cuddy explains the risks to the 12-year-old girl. House wouldn't risk a transplant; later, the daughter was sweating BLOOD. Something was blocking their dopamine receptors, and that was all I got because of the bloody sound issues. (or maybe they were LIARS!) Adoption was the answer, I surmised. Then House and Cuddy had an emotional moment because she was denied her baby, heh.
In 24, Larry was at the late Senator's townhouse and did his best Horatio Caine impersonation by investigating the crime scene. Luckily, he didn't pause after every word, crack a one-liner, and then put on sunglasses right before the opening credits. He called Ethan, who tried to pass the buck to Moss, but Moss actually stood up for himself. Ethan seemed resigned to the fact that this was his fault, and he looked distraught and depressed. Tony and Jack were driving with one hand and holding cellphones with the other. They haven't heard of Bluetooth devices? President Taylor was on the phone with her husband, who is now out of surgery. So terrorists can break into the White House from under the sea in less than a few minutes, but the First Gentleman needed four hours of surgery? Ethan tendered his resignation and fell on his own sword. President Taylor tried to talk him out of it, but ultimately accepted his resignation. What's with all the disloyal / incompetent Chiefs of Staff? Mike, Wayne, Cummings, Mike again, Tom Lennox. Yikes!
Some dock security officer named Carl that we've never seen before was on the phone with his wife, who's pregnant with twins. ("The doctor said I was lucky it wasn't triplets!") We know what that means. This guy will be dead soon. Jack and Tony got to him, and demand the shipyard's manifest. Jon Voight is coordinating with his team at the shipyard and, sure enough, he was wearing a Bluetooth. Maybe that's why Jack and Tony didn't have them. Bluetooth devices are for evil people! Like Gream. Or is the Grame? Why couldn't they have just gone with the conventional spelling of "Graham?"
Jon Voight presided over some kind of board meeting at Starkwood. He went into overacting mode once again, and went off on the government for not knowing how to utilize their services and daring to investigate them. Of course, the board is not totally behind him. Doug, some suit on the board, wanted to make a deal with the administration, but Jon Voight wasn't hearing it. They step outside, and Doug is worried about Senator Mayer's investigation. Jon Voight flashed his evil smile and calmly mentioned that the Senator is dead. Doug wanted to know whether Jon Voight was behind it, and Jon replied with a creepy "We are not in the business of political assassinations. But maybe we should think about it."
Jack tried to reason with Carl the Redshirt and tells him what's going on. Sure enough, he tells Jack everything. Jack can't call to the FBI since the lines are jammed, so they'll need to go it alone. Jack convinced Carl to let the bad guys in and string them along. Carl forced Jack to promise to protect him, while Tony flashed Jack a knowing look that's absolutely priceless. Jon Voight's men took Carl with them and Jack is upset. Tony tries to cheer him up by saying: "He was dead the moment he stepped out of that door." Ethan gave Olivia some words of warning about trying to win at all costs, and Olivia clearly resented his patronizing attitude. Of course, Olivia called that reporter and reveals that she was behind the leak all along. NOT SURPRISED!
Renee's still in holding; back at the townhouse, Moss had some questions about this whole thing, and he calls Renee. He was skeptical about Jack's guilt and he wanted answers from Renee. Renee had a crisis of conscience and isn't sure whether or not to trust Moss. Finally, she relented and told him everything. Wow, she's known Jack for less than 24 hours and she already trusts him more than Moss. Can't blame her. The bad guys decide to "settle up" with Carl, and Tony wanted to let him go. However, Jack won't do that and he follows them. Tony tries to talk him out of it, but Jack puts on his silencer and shot the guy anyway. The bad guys sent someone to check on the downed guard. He saw the guy down, and he called it in. Why didn't Jack just shoot the guy with his silencer and buy some time?
Jack went after the truck, and he commandeered it. There are nine hours left. Surely Starkwood must reacquire the weapon before too long, right? Tony got captured. Will Jack go back and save him? Nope. He saved Redshirt Carl and he let Tony go? What's wrong with this picture? Jack called Moss and tells him that he got the weapon. He noticed a flashing light and a leak, then got momentarily exposed to whatever toxic agent is in the canister. (ANOTHER canister?!) However, he once again demonstrated his superhuman ability to hold his breath, and fixed the leak. Sure enough, he got ambushed once he exited the boxcar, and Starkwood recovered the weapon. Tony is alive, and is being held captive. Meanwhile Jack told Moss that he was exposed to the bio-agent, and Moss seemed sad. Wow, Jack really seems to have that kind of an effect on people, doesn't he? You just can't help but love the guy. Just ask Senator Mayer. Oh wait a minute...
