Poor Chloe!
I started watching 24 last year, and found myself bewildered about the character Chloe. She’s one of my favorite characters, but she always comes off as snide and biting.
Well, I finally understand why. Jack Bauer will NOT leave poor Chloe alone. Every 10 minutes, he’s furtively calling her in yet another emergency-induced panic.. and giving her yet another impossible feat to accomplish behind CTU’s back. GEEZ. Talk about pressure! Chloe’s to-do list from Jack the renegade always seems to involve:
1) Breaking into some highly-secure system without getting caught by anyone in her department
2) Having to finagle a way to get on someone else’s system without their knowledge
3) DOING IT NOW! (tough titties if she’s furiously working (under supervision, no less) to attain data that will prevent yet another terrorist from attacking in 48 seconds.
4) Risking termination/imprisonment every time she rolls her eyes and tells Jack "oKAY, I’ll do it!"
The latest? Chloe’s got to hack into the NSA’s system (under the watchful eye of Homeland Security who has taken her key card) to download the "WET list" (my condolences, gentlemen; this is NOT the payroll for Madame Boudoir’s House of Ill-Repute) and send it to Jack. The WET list is only a top-top-over-the-top secret list of all known and suspected international terrorists.
Yes, it’s no wonder Chloe has a permanent scowl on her face.
LOL…that was pretty funny (the before and after thing).
I couldn’t stand Chloe in the third season but thought she was marginally better in the 4th and now she is starting to grow on me, although everytime I say that she does something else obnoxious.
