Butt Head 24/7

Previously on 24:
Special Agent Jack Bauer (on a CTU mission to save the world from a terrorist bomb) sneaks up on 4 hostiles in an abandoned warehouse. Jack kicks in the door and slits the throat of the terrorist guarding the door. Then Jack is faced with a 3 on-one situation. Doesn’t sound fair?

No problem…we are talking Jack Bauer, CTU Agent, Super Human, and King of the Whisperers. Jack attempts to shoot one of the terrorists, but his gun is knocked out of his hand. Jack then kicks him in the privates, swings around, and knifes the other guy. Jack head-butts the last hostile, knocking him out. He deciphers the code and deactivates the bomb…in a nick of time. Jack saves the world from terrorists again. All in a 24-hour day’s work.

The following takes place between 1a.m. and 2a.m.:
Jack Bauer aka Kiefer Sutherland (on a mission to save the world from rude, un-cool fashion designers) encounters fashion designer, Jack McCullough. Kiefer, King of Whisperers, is having a quiet conversation with Brooke Shields outside a trendy NYC bar. McCullough bumps into Brooke without offering an apology to Ms. Shields. Kiefer becomes majorly pissed-off and the two men exchange words. That’s when Kiefer head-butts the fashion designer and breaks the guy’s nose. Kiefer successfully saves the world from rude and trendy fashion designers. All in a 24-hour day’s work.

Stay tuned to next week on 24:
…when Kiefer is scene in court for his head butting occurrence in addition to a violation of his probation terms resulting from his second DUI conviction.

So it appears Kiefer Sutherland is in big trouble for head butting. But can you really blame him? I think it must be hard for Kiefer to know where his Jack persona leaves off and real-life Kiefer begins. Maybe Kiefer is the real Jack…or maybe Jack is the real Kiefer.

And if you’ve ever watched 24…it would be easy to believe that sooner or later the tough Jack routine would rub off on Kiefer. Kiefer has played Jack Bauer for 7 seasons of ‘24’ so he has learned a thing or two about busting heads. Sutherland probably has to contain himself 24/7 to not kick someone in the privates and slit someone’s throat. And it must be even harder for Kiefer to not talk in that tough guy dialogue that is written for his Jack character:

I need you to patch me through.
Secure the perimeter
Keep me posted.
You have my word.
Trust me.
Dammit

I think Kiefer shouldn’t be held accountable for his actions…especially after playing Jack Bauer for 7 years…someone who is always above the law and takes matters into his own hands. It was just out of Sutherland’s control.

Or maybe Kiefer Sutherland is just a butt head…and head butting just comes naturally. Copy that.

Oh, and secure the perimeter…I don’t want either Kiefer or Jack coming after me.

Trust me……..dammit.
