At 2 a.m. it's time to play Bauer Family Fortunes. After hours of watching cable news in a spartan CTU cell (hey, there was a nuclear explosion in Ventura!), Marilyn and Josh emerge to make Jack feel really uncomfortable. Meanwhile, a plot twist crawls up from the sewers under CTU, and we say goodbye to a much-loved character.

As part of Slate's Spoiler Special podcast series, we've been hosting regular "post-view" discussions of Season 6 of 24. (Click here to listen to a discussion of the first four hours, here for a discussion of Hour 5, here for Hour 6, here for Hour 7, here for hours 8 and 9, here for Hour 10, here for Hour 11, here for Hour 12, here for Hour 13, here for Hour 14, here for Hour 15, here for Hour 16, here for Hour 17, here for Hour 18, here for Hour 19, and here for Hour 20.)

In this podcast, Slate's June Thomas and Julia Turner discuss Nadia Yassir's inconsistent management style, Tom Lennox's amazing workplace versatility, and Lisa Miller's X-rated bag-cam transmission.

Because we reveal plot twists in these chats, we recommend—but don't insist—that you watch the show before listening to the program.
