'''Edgar Stiles''' was a [[fictional character]] played by [[Louis Lombardi]] in the American television series ''[[24 (TV series)|24]]''. |
|||
==Characteristics== |
|||
Edgar had experience as an Intelligence Analyst at CTU as well as being a protocol manager. He had Bachelor of Science in Computer Applications with honors from New York University.<ref name="profile">{{cite web|url=http://fox.com/24/profiles/season5/es.htm|title=FOX Broadcasting Company: 24|publisher=FOX 24|accessdate=2008-07-08}}</ref> |

Edgar was known to have a [[photographic memory]]<ref>{{cite episode|title = 12:00 AM - 1:00 AM | series = 24 | serieslink = 24 (TV series) | season = 4| number = 90|airdate=2005-04-18|credits = Writer: [[Joel Surnow]] Director: [[Jon Cassar]]}}</ref>, and was friends with analyst [[Chloe O'Brian]], who described him as "a geek, but a good guy".<ref>{{cite episode|title = 11:00 PM - 12:00 AM | series = 24 | serieslink = 24 (TV series) | season = 4| number = 77|airdate=2005-01-17|credits = Writer: [[Peter Lenkov]] Director: [[Jon Cassar]]}}</ref> |

|||
Edgar was at first seen as the patsy of Chloe O'Brian, though as Day 4 went on, Edgar took his own stand. Even so, the two remained good friends. |
|||
Edgar was the agent who realized that fellow agent [[Sarah Gavin]] was innocent of conspiring with the enemy, and that fellow agent [[Marianne Taylor]] was in fact guilty. Edgar would eventually prove this all to Driscoll, who would fire Taylor and re-establish Gavin.<ref>{{cite episode|title = 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM | series = 24 | serieslink = 24 (TV series) | season = 4| number = 80 |airdate=2005-02-07|credits = Writer: Stepehn Kronish & [[Peter M. Lenkov]] | Director: [[Ken Girotti]]}}</ref> |

Edgar was the main hero behind the Nuclear Plant Meltdown Crisis, managing to stabilize 98 Plants without the ever-crucial Dobson Override.<ref>{{cite episode|title = 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM | series = 24 | serieslink = 24 (TV series) | season = 4| number = 79 |airdate=2005-01-31|credits = Writer: [[Joel Surnow]] & [[Michael Loceff]] | Director: [[Ken Girotti]]}}</ref> A few hours later, all but one plant (located at St. Gabriel Island) was stabilized, but ironically that one plant eventually killed his mother.<ref>{{cite episode|title = 3:00 PM - 4:00 PM | series = 24 | serieslink = 24 (TV series) | season = 4| number = 81 |airdate=2005-02-14|credits = Writer: [[Howard Gordon]] & [[Evan Katz]] | Director: [[Brad Turner (director)|Brad Turner]]}}</ref> |
|||
After Chloe was forced to resign and Gavin was fired, Edgar had complete control of the Analyst department of CTU and when Chloe was rehired by Acting Director [[Michelle Dessler]]. Chloe was "technically" working for Edgar, much to his approval. In truth, they both shared the same post after Chloe was rehired, but according to [[Curtis Manning]], "It's just on paper, it has to look that way." To stop further squabbling, he reassured Chloe that she would be given a promotion of two pay grades and a higher clearance.<ref>{{cite episode|title = 9:00 PM - 10:00 PM | series = 24 | serieslink = 24 (TV series) | season = 4| number = 87|airdate=2005-03-28|credits = Writer: [[Joel Surnow]] Director: [[Bryan Spicer]]}}</ref> |

Edgar was still working at CTU at the start of [[24 (season 5)|Day 5]], shocked like most CTU staff that Jack Bauer was still alive, and potentially a suspect in the murder of former President [[David Palmer (character)|David Palmer]]. He was particularly irked at Chloe for not telling him that she knew about Jack's true whereabouts, to which she claims it was a matter of national security. She then makes a sarcastic comment about trying to be more open with Edgar, which causes him to be somewhat taken aback.<ref name="s5ep1">{{cite episode|title = 7:00am-8:00am | series = 24 | serieslink = 24 (TV series) | season = 5 | number = 97|airdate=2006-01-15|credits = Writer: [[Howard Gordon]] Director: [[Jon Cassar]]}}</ref> This confrontation, along with the fact he was surprised to realize that Chloe was seeing fellow CTU Techie [[Minor CTU agents in 24#Spenser Wolff|Spenser Wolff]], made Edgar feel generally strained by someone he considered a good friend.<ref name="s5ep1" /> |
|||
At 6:59 p.m. in Day 5, during a Sentox nerve gas attack on CTU, Stiles was returning to the main room after trying to check on a colleague, [[Carrie Bendis]], who had gone to check a ventilator system that set off a "trouble flag." He did not make it back in time, and failed to enter the situation room before it was locked down. He died quickly thereafter from inhaling the nerve gas. He receives the silent clock in tribute, at 6:59:56. His last word was "Chloe".<ref>{{cite episode|title = 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM | series = 24 | serieslink = 24 (TV series) | season = 5| number = 108|airdate=2006-03-06|credits = Writer: Duppy Demetrius & Matt Michnovetz | Director: [[Jon Cassar]]}}</ref> |
|||
At the conclusion of Day 5, a picture of Edgar and Chloe was found among Edgar's possessions, which [[Bill Buchanan]] gives to a still-saddened Chloe.<ref>{{cite episode|title = 6:00 AM - 7:00 AM | series = 24 | serieslink = 24 (TV series) | season = 5| number = 120|airdate=2006-05-22|credits = Writer: [[Robert Cochran (TV producer)|Robert Cochran]] | Director: [[Jon Cassar]]}}</ref> |
