Either way, the content of question/response is plot. Sometimes car batteries (or nail guns) are necessary. The prisoner eventually folds, dies, or-uncommonly-dupes the interrogator. Entire episodes of 24 centered on one character, usually Jack Bauer, looming over an adequate secret-keeper. And they must be allowed to attempt so that a chase sequence can ensue and then end with reheated questioning. She must, so that Brad and Kiera can attempt escape. How is she here? Why is he here? What does his future look like? It ends in cheer: Decades before 2077 the corporations and the government have dissolved and civil war fractures the country. Travis and Sonya demand to know what Kiera and Brad know. They get to arrive when flabbergasted stares are at their most impressionable. They’re the beneficiaries, and the final straw. The informational advantage Kiera and Brad hold over the Liber8 foursome does not extend to Kellog and his immortality guru. Kellog and Curtis eventually show up, but not at this point. It can’t be a reunion until everyone’s present. In turn, and for hardly a good reason, Travis and Sonya and Garza and Lucas interrupt them. I had to ( I sent a slug through other-you’s brain.), to paraphrase. They have the ol’ verbal run around: Don’t vanish. Kiera eventually locates him, interrupting his reunion with his adolescent self. Assassination leads to a shameful walk indeed. “3 Minutes to Midnight” miscasts itself as epic.Īfter memory rushes Brad, he takes off before Kiera returns with breakfast. This way, when the sequence concludes, we all exhale a collective Yeah, bitch! Magnets! “Waning Minutes” broke away out of ambition. They aim not only for the forward inching of our butts, but our upward springing arms across our neighbor’s chest. When departing from template or, here, dramatic rhythm, writers have magnetization in mind. Continuum demonstrated a similar disposition in “Waning Minutes”. The ways in which characters interact with all of that and overlap in their interactions is narrative. Plot involves world-building and table-setting. Yet the only thing bordering on grand is the confusion of plot for narrative. “3 Minutes to Midnight” simply does away with pretense of sublimation. They want answers.Īt this point, what should we expect? Continuum has deployed two modes of suspense this season: carrot dangling and cartography. But forget the prologue: Liber8 wrangles up Kiera and a now fully-functional Brad. Carlos is uncool with Dillon buying off the hulks, and Kiera accuses Young Sadler of prioritizing profit over public safety. HALO turns decent people into Hulks-i.e., Jason trying to kill two people (one of them Julien). After twenty-five minutes of stuff, episode scribe Jonathan Walker delivers a fifteen-minute monologue.
