ANDY EDELSTEIN: BIGGEST "24" QUESTION

I know you're not supposed to think logically about what happens on "24." But Monday's episode left me with one huge head-scratcher that needs some itchin'.

Namely, where did Jack get that fancy suit and tie he wore when he made his, um, social call on the Russian consul? I've spent several hours pondering and here are my conclusions.

24suitblog.jpg1. CTU has a valet on its premises.

2. Just like another comic book superhero, the Flash, Jack pressed his power ring and out popped his suit ready to wear.

3. He borrowed one from former President Logan. ("I don't trust you, Charles, but I do trust your fashion sense.")

4. CTU gave 1-800 We Dry Clean special dispensation to get through the cordoned-off steets of L.A.

5. Like MacGyver, Jack knows how to stitch together something out of found objects.

It's gotta be one of these reasons, no?

I suspect I'm more years away from my comic book collection than you, but I seem to recall that it was the Flash who kept his uniform compressed in a ring. What happened to his mufti was never exactly clear.
