24 Recap: There is nothing more dangerous than a wounded animal

Since Andrew is away this week on business I volunteered to handle the 24 recap. This is my first-ever TV recap for the revamped and improved NYaT.net - I will do my best to fill his considerable shoes.
When we last left Jack Bauer he had discovered, in a very Elin Woods-type moment, that President Logan was the voice behind the cover-up and beloved Renee's death. Logan now enters Jack's crosshairs, a grim place to be these hours.

Back at the UN President Taylor has her Press Secretary announcing Ethan Kanin's resignation for health purposes (completely believable, since he kind of had a sizable heart attack only a few hours prior) and revealing former President Charles Logan as the man behind on the curtain on the Russian's return to the peace talks. Logan looks entirely thrilled with himself as he watches and listens to the Press Conference on TV*. Unfortunately his happiness would have to be short-lived as trusted private sector advisor Jason Pillar rings him up with some bad news - the Russian team is dead (very dead in the case of Renee's shooter) and Jack has slipped out of their security cordon. Pillar once again recommends Logan distance himself from the Peace Accord - but it is too late, his ego got the best of him, and now his best chance is to try and lay it all at poor Allison's feet.

*Side Note: Was anyone as as surprised as I was when Logan was willing to put the Presser on MUTE mid-praise to have another conversation? With his ego I was expecting him to turn the volume up, not down.
