Talk:Tony Almeida

message: In an early draft for season six Nina Myer's was set to return after President Logan and Nina Myers reveal to Jack that Nina had a twin sister that was killed.  In the full draft as the helicopter carrying Cheng as in episode twenty-four of season six nears CTU, Bill’s instruments go haywire. The Chinese don’t want Cheng to be interrogated because he knows too much and they would rather he die along with Jack. The helicopter is locked onto and Cheng’s men hit it with an RPG. The chopper is going down and it appears a crash is imminent. Cheng is actually happy and is pleased he will be killed as he fears what the U.S. interrogators would have done to him. But Cheng will not have his death and Bill knows his stuff and he’s able to maneuver the chopper and he makes a crash landing on CTU. The landing is really rough but everyone is alive. 
Jack gets out and he takes aim at the Chinese agents on the adjacent building but they are long gone. Jack rushes back to the helicopter and helps Josh get out. Bill secures Cheng and escorts him and Josh inside CTU. Jack stays behind and watches as everyone goes inside, and later Jack walks out of CTU and the Counter Terrorist Unit is a closed chapter in Jack’s life. Jack is cleared by security and he walks outside of the CTU gate and onto the public street.  
A man on a motorcycle appears and he’s driving towards Jack. Jack is cautious and he puts his hand on his gun but nothing happens and Jack realizes that he doesn’t have to run anymore, the motorcycle man was nobody. Jack walks into an alleyway and he rests against the wall as he takes the day in and realizes that everything is over.
However as Jack turns the corner of the alleyway he’s hit in the head and he crashes to the ground in a semi-conscious state. A big black SUV pulls up and a woman gets out and helps the other man put Jack in the back seat. The SUV peels out and Jack is still hurting and in and out of consciousness. His blurry eyes look over to the right and his eyes adjust to reveal a man sitting next to him. Jack’s eyes adjust to reveal a smiling President Charles Logan. Logan appears to be favoring his shoulder but he’s in pretty good shape. Logan tells Jack that there’s a lot he has to tell him and he needs to know that Jack won’t try anything stupid after he shows him something. 
Then Logan tells a brief story about being the head of some energy corporation a while back and talks about Jack in Mexico five years ago and he mentions that Jack ruined his plans there. The woman driver tells Logan that they are not being followed and that nobody is exactly in a hurry to look for Jack. The woman turns around and the look on Jack’s face registers as pure shock. IT’S NINA MYERS. Jack is furious and confused but Logan explains this in a way in which I still don’t understand. Logan says that Jack killed “one of his girls” as she attempted to break out of CTU but that women wasn’t the operative Jack knew as Nina Myers. Logan shows Jack a photo of Logan in his 30’s and he’s in some sort of overseas village at a house on a cliff over looking the ocean and he’s with two young twin sisters who appear to be around seven or eight years old.
The season ends with Logan mentioning some sort of anti-terrorist organization and that Jack’s father was among the founding members and that now that both Phillip and Graham are dead they will need another Bauer to step up and assume the duties of keeping the world safe. The show ends with Logan telling Jack how much his country needs him and the final shot is of a confused Jack unsure of what to think and unsure of what’s to come.

:::One thing I don't understand is that becuase this alternate ending was made, people suddenly think he's definatly alive. This is an alternate ending. It did'nt really happen. I know he's gonna return for season 7, but still.Green Kirby 02:13, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Check official site

message: This is justified. Manny Coto's board, IMDb, and even radio hosts continue to discuss whether or not Tony Almeida died. Those primarily at IMDb, Coto's board, and the AlmeidaIsGod community have expressed their outrage towards the show's writers for killing him off so suddenly and without a Silent clock to boot. I honestly can't see why the "Death and Backlash" edit is not justified.
:Whether he died is not the same same a backlash and one that went so far as to call for a boycott or call this the beginning of the end for the show. This section is extreme and it needs far better sources than a website called "AlmeidaIsGod" and a few random critcisms about the show from IMDb. This section is heavily POV and doesn't, IMHO, represent the general feeling of the fans of the show. K1Bond007 03:46, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: By the way, AlmeidaIsGod is a community, and on IMDb, the threads concerning his death are a dime a dozen. Coto's board is the only thing that seems to stick here. I wonder why.--DethFromAbove 04:50, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Tony is alive?

message: A note to all those, desperately clinging to Tony's being alive. He is DEAD. Look here http://www.fox.com/24/profiles/ta.htm. The word 'DECEASED' is a bit of a give away. Algebra man 14:49, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Tony's Death

message: I don't see why Tony's ability to speak Spanish should be placed in the Day 3 section, I am sure that there is somewhere more appropriate for it to go. Also it is inaccurate. Tony has been seen speaking Spanish on the show, in Day 1 he said to Jamey "Eres una verguenze," which translates as "You are a waste of space/embarassment/disgrace." I would change it but I don't know where it ought to go. I also don't see why it mentions the number of Hispanic co-stars as Tony didn't come into contact with most of them. I think the only one he properly spoke to was Gael.Algebra man 15:50, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Trivia

message: Is it not worth having a section at the bottom of the article about this, simply because the speculation has been so huge and there are so many sources to back it up? I considered adding something but I know it would have been reverted straight away, even if I was staying impartial and commenting purely on the level of speculation. I felt instead that something needed to be said on here. Any ideas on what, if anything, should be incorporated into the article? Northeasternbeast 19:02, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Merging

message: These are fictional characters, made up by the writers for the show. So why is there a whining complaint on every charaters page complaining that the source of a characters fictional biography is the shows website? DUH! What better source would there be. These are the guys making up the characters. Why should we have to go find a website where some reporter regurgitated the same stuff put forth by the original authors?

thread_title: It's a fictional character!

message: Could one honestly validate this complaint for a 24 character? Most of a character's development is told through the events of each season. Seeing as basically every action a character makes in the series has a specific purpose, it's no easy task. Sure, trim some fat, but to demand a 24 plot summary matches everything else in size is beyond silly. Outside of maybe copy-pasting information out of an official Fox profile, one would be lucky to get anything relevant of that size. Kanten (talk) 07:14, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Plot summary that is too long compared to the rest of the article?

message: What should we do with this category now that the first four episodes have been shown? I'm a bit wary using it, now we know he's deep cover. "Fictional hitmen" or "Fictional mercenaries", sure. But I'm a bit cautious about "fictional terrorists". Sceptre (talk) 19:10, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Category:Fictional terrorists

message: As of right now, Carlos Bernard is not listed on any of the official Fox press releases as returning to reprise the role of Tony Almeida.  The only main cast members whom Fox has mentioned as returning are Kiefer Sutherland, Mary Lynn Rajskub, Cherry Jones, and Annie Wersching.  Speculation by a single newspaper's blog really isn't a reliable source, when in every other article out there, Carlos/Tony is not mentioned.  Until there is something comes from Fox, Tony should not be listed as a returning character. --MiB-24 (talk) 04:20, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Season Eight

message: I have not seen this part, yet, so I do not know what is correct.  Hopefully, someone who has seen this will clear it up.
The last few lines of the Season 7 summary read:
:As he prepares to kill Wilson, Tony is shot and killed by Jack and Renee. As the FBI detains him, Tony curses Jack as a coward and a traitor as he is led away into FBI custody.
Correct me if I'm misunderstanding something, but I do not think that Tony could curse Jack if he has be "shot and killed".  I assumed the "and killed" is a typo, but I do know for sure since I haven't seen this far in the show.  Maybe the last sentence is out of place.  If he eventually dies from the shot some time after being led away, then these sentences need to be re-written to make that clear.  I'm reluctant to fix it until I've seen it for myself.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Otasyn (talk • contribs) 23:03, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
