Figures they'd end the episode with the missile launching. I wonder what city it's heading for.

Audrey needs to die, seriously

Gotta love how Palmer put the wannabe President in his place.

I'll be curious to see how they find out where the missile is headed and then stop it in only 3 hours. Don't some of our missiles have fail-safes on them so that once they're launched, they're launched and it's just a matter of time before they hit their target?

yeah, though my dad was pointing out to me that those missiles are OLD SCHOOL US Army, something called a Hawk.  Dont know if they had the same failsafes and such.  Either way, wowwee, that was a clincher.  I've been missing a few of the episodes and this was the first FULL episode i caught since like 13.  Damn good.

Chloe used to piss me off, but I've started liking her a lot more lately. She's so funny. If there was ever a Captain Obvious, she's it.

Well, these guys are so good with all the missile stuff, don't you think they disabled the failsafes on the missile anyway? An operation that well executed wouldn't let simple failsafes stop them.

I know what the US can use to shoot down the missile. For years they've had some sort of prototype plane that can shoot down missiles with a laser. If they could just get that sucker airborne. But I doubt they'd have time anyway.

Yeah i know the plane you speak of.  Isn't it basically a modified RC-135 or some such big jet platform.  So needless to say not a fast plane capable of mach speeds even.  Be hard for it to even catch up to the missile once they pin down where it's coming from and where it's headed.

We just need to kick start the Star Wars program again. The US would be feared again with a weapon in space
