Its the end of an era, as 24s TV incarnation reaches its final hour.

Does it go out with a bang, or a fizzle?

This weeks final double feature promised to be a bit of an explosive ride.

The question is, did it deliver?

The end begins with Ortiz finding Ricker, in a rather anticlimactic confrontation.

Ortiz quickly convinces Ricker to help him find Jack, telling him that its in Jacks best interest.

A more obvious hurdle to come there never was.

Logan calls Taylor and tells her about President Suberovs involvement.

Dhalia then finds out about the possible Russian involvement from her daughter.

Events switch back to Jack, who now finds himself in the UN with Pillar.

Bleeding out, he forces Pillar to perform some field surgery on him, stitching up his wounds.

Fireworks ensue, and Dhalia threatens to leave the peace treaty.

Agent Burke, as expected, spends his time looking suspicious of the two.

Meanwhile, Jack sets up his sniper nest, and records a goodbye message on his phone.

He calls Logan and threatens him, forcing him to call Suberov to lure him to his location.

Jacks wry smile is a great touch to the scene, and the final hour is set up.

Shortly after, he gets Logans call and heads to his office.

Jack seems determined, that is, until he gets the chance as Suberov arrives.

Pillar searches Chloe, but finds nothing.

We then find out that she hid the card in her phone.

This was a little stupid, though.

Surely Pillar would look there first.

I know I would.

Before he can, Jack whispers to him, and he leans closer, then… Bam!

Jack bites his ear off!

Pillar orders Burke to send the card to Logan, which is another little mistake, in my opinion.

Why would Logan need the card?

Burke would surely suspect somethings amiss.

After all, most others arent aware of Logans involvement.

Taylor doesnt stop him, such is her frame of mind.

and is reduced to tears, clearly realising the error of her ways.

Suberov goes first, followed by Dhalia Hassan, who hesitates, but signs the treaty.

Sadly, shes too late, and we see Jack captured by Logans hired guns.

Perhaps one of the best24scenes of all is then played out.

Logan, reeling from the news of Taylors announcement is angry, very, very angry.

Pretty heavy stuff, and a real shocking turn of events.

Logan was unquestionably one of24s best characters, but no more.

If he survives the injuries, hell more than likey be brain dead or damaged.

In any case, we doubt hed back as a viable foe.

Well miss you, Logan.

You were one hell of a slimy bastard!

The final scenes are clearly all about a fond farewell of the series and the characters.

Come on, though.

Did you really think Jack would die?

The episode then ends in a rather low key, but still touching and fitting manner.

Taylor tells Jack that he was right, and states her intention to resign.

Unfortunately, both the U.S. and Russia will now be gunning for him.

Taylor promises Jack a head start, though, giving him chance to leave the country.

The final conversation of the series is between Jack and Chloe.

He thanks Chloe for all shes done and asks her to ensure Kims safety.

Its been a hell of a ride, Jack.

We look forward to seeing you soon.
