24: 15 Stupidest Things We Just Had To Go With

13. Kim As A CTU Employee

That€™s right, we€™ve got another Kim entry. Deciding that his daughter wasn€™t capable of staying safe without his direct supervision, Jack decided to get Kim a job at CTU. That makes sense, right? Wrong. Think about it. Kim dropped out of high school after season 1. After season 2, she obtained a GED and an associate degree. Okay, that€™s fine, she pursued higher education, but there is no way that those qualifications alone got her a job at one of the most secure government facilities in the U.S. And it wasn€™t even right before season 3 that she started working there. Kim started her internship at CTU in 24: The Game...which takes place six months after season 2. That€™s right, Kim went from being a high school dropout to typing on computers in a counter-terrorist organisation in half a year. Even if she were a computer science prodigy, there€™s no way that would have happened so quickly. What€™s more likely is Jack threatened the appropriate people into hiring his daughter; a reference from Jack has a lot more importance than whatever€™s on your resume.
