WHAT you should probably KNOW.

(If youre truly getting started this late Ill set you up but Ihighlyrecommend you catch up!)

The show takes place over the course of ONE day.

Carters arrival on the main floor of CTU was a nice moment to shoot.

It was the meeting of two of the big worlds of the show.

Boy, she was excited and proud to be part of her sons show.

And in a badass cop uniform no less!)

Pretty clever, that Eric Carter.

He had some help from Andy so that makes things more interesting and puts Andys job at risk.

But hey Mullins was gunning to get him fired anyway, right?

And his bf Agent Locke has snuffed out their relationship.

So Andys feeling a strange blend of hopeless, reckless and power-hungry!

So, sometimes scenes are cut and new scenes are written to shoot and help tether the original ones.

It wasnt as clearly explained how Nicole would get out of that sticky situation.

So they added the scene, which was shot a few weeks after finishing the episode.

Go watch it again and youll see!

(I hope you know Id only do this for you.)

But Andy was already working on it!

Hes always one step ahead and always on the same page with his old boss, Ingram.

I had a feeling this might end up in my lap, he says in this new scene.

But to make it make room for this new scene with Rebecca, a scene was cut.

ORIGINALLY, Carter called Andy on his cellphone and asked him to meet in an interrogation room.

When Andy arrived, he saw Carter had tied up a guard for gain access.

Andy hyperventilates with anxiety What is it with you and Rebecca?

He wonders why everyone seems to be tazing people and tying them up today?!

It was a comedic downbeat before Carter asked Andy for help securing the Onyx schematics.

I always enjoy playing the anxiety of Andy Shalowitz.

(Somehow, I can access anxiety quite easily.

And there may be opportunities for them to work together later in the season.

But I cant confirm or deny that.

Youll have to wait and see.
