The bad guy has gotten away too many times. The writers could have done better. It seems that whenever they need a plot twist, the let Marwan go. At this point, it's stupid.
With an infinite number of possibilities, the writers continuously pick the least imaginative option.
----------------------------------------------------------
Thanks, your analysis as to WHY the plot twist was "stupid" was helpful... and I think you have a good point. More imaginative would be better. Perhaps if someone on CTU side did something really stupid, instead of this "terrorist ex machina" stuff. They just appear, do thier job and escape--as if there were no perimeter in or out

Wow, I've watched all four seasons, but I didn't realize she was a recurring character.
Tony deserves what he's gonna get... what a dumb move.

I agree. The other agent was going to be killed anyway, Tony should've realized this and popped Mandy between the eyes.
To: GRRRRR; Mo1

Hmm... They have her trapped with a hostage in a 2 or three building gated community.
If the writing is as bad as usual, she'll get away.

O.K., really stupid of Tony, but in his defense he has been out of operations for a while. He's just been sitting around drinking beer from the cubbies mug.

Sorry, but I'm not buying that any agent in the same situation would have dropped his gun. No way.
Seriously, were the earlier seasons this full of cheesy soap operas and so many escapes that it is beyond any type of belief? I can look past the little stuff like everything being within 5 minutes of CTU, since that is needed for story compression, but all these silly escapes are so ridiculous.
What a waste. Reminds me of how Fox News pisses all over itself with nonstop "Fox News Alerts", Michael Jackson, Scott Peterson, and car chases.

Looks like Mandy beat Tony up a little... Mandy calls that foreplay, LOL!
