yellowstone's Journal: 24 Season 1 Hour 2: Wait, what?!

OK, so the Bad Guys want to assassinate Senator Allstate for reasons yet to be explained. Apparently, this is their plan:

1. Use plastic surgery to create an Evil Twin Photographer Dude
2. Send an agent to seduce Real Photographer Dude, steal his credentials, and then
3. Remove Real Photographer Dude by (very publically) blowing up the plane that he's on
4. Evil Twin Photographyer Dude can now use real credentials and (evil) twin-ness to get inside Senator Allstate's security perimeter.

I'm sure Hour 3 will feature developments whereby it is explained how the Photographer Dude could have survived the exploding plane (actually, I've read more of the wikipedia page on this season than I should have, and I know that somehow this is going to become an even-more-ridiculous assassination-by-blackmail plot).

(I also know enough about 24 to not hold my breath waiting for explanations as to why the Bad Guys are executing a Fantastically Contrived and Hopelessly Fragile Evil Plot)
