You can’t keep a good soul patch down!
From Ain’t it Cool:
Bauer’s day gets off to a shocking start when former colleague Tony Almeida (played by Carlos Bernard), last seen in Day 5, returns after being left for dead by a terrorist conspirator in CTU’s infirmary.

WHAT?!?!? ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH!!!!!!!
YES!!!!!!!!!!
I TOLD YOU SO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This show freaking sucks. If I do recaps this season, the entire thing will read BULLSHIT BULLSHIT BULLSHIT STAB BULLSHIT
You’re just upset because you’ve never been so wrong before.
I intend to gloat about this for a while, so get used to it.
I keep coming back to this post to look at Tony’s picture. HE’S SO DREAMY!!!!
I hope he still has his Cubs mug too..
Maybe the cougar will come back, too.
I KNEW he would NEVER LEAVE ME!!
