" You may not be able to contact me after this." " Why?" "Chappelle became a problem, so I had to take him out of play." "They're on to me." "It's only a matter of time before they take me out." "Who do I contact if I need help?" "I'm sending Michelle out to the field to set up an off-site station." " You're under arrest." "Where's Michelle Dessler?" " I can find her." "Yeah, affirmative, Central, she's in custody." "Kim?" "Hello?" " " Who are you?" - "I'm Kate Warner."" "Your father sent me to come get you." " Why would my dad send someone he just met to come get me?" " He trusts me." "The sooner we leave, the sooner you and your dad can be together." "The attorney general called me." "He assumed you'd want me for your counsel." " "What have they told you?" - "You'd been removed" from office by the cabinet." "This country's about to go to war based on evidence... manipulated by a man named Peter Kingsley." "I need you to find out everything you can about him." " What happens now?" " We got one last play." " "Deliver Kingsley." - "He's far too dangerous."" "And you'll never get close to him." "You're right." "I won't..." "but you will." "Kingsley doesn't know Hewitt's been killed." "If you tell him you can deliver him, that should get his attention." "I want the tapes that you made of our conversation." "I'll give you Alex Hewitt in return." "All right." "L.A. Coliseum, Gate 18, 30 minutes." "What kind of support will you be getting from C.T. U?" "As of now, none." "Jack!" "Jack!" " You okay?" " Yeah." "Come on." "Come..." "Damn it, the car won't start." "We got to get out of here." "My seat belt's jammed." "Mrs. Palmer, I'm gonna need your help." "Mrs. Palmer, please don't do this." "I'm sorry, Jack, but I have to take care of myself." " When I'm free, I'll call an ambulance for you." " You can't do this!" "I don't have a choice." "You're a very impressive man, Jack... but you see everything as either good or bad, just like David." " And the world is so much more complicated than that." " No, it's simple." "There's a war about to start, and you're the only person who can help me stop it." "What about the president?" "He turned away from me." "After 25 years of building a life together, a family, he turned me away." "Eventually, they will connect you to this conspiracy." "That bomb was never supposed to go off." "None of this was supposed to happen this way." "I know." "I believe you." "You can put an end to it now." "If you help me get Kingsley, your husband will get his presidency back." "That will be because of you." "Mrs. Palmer, please!" "Damn it." "What do you want me to do?" "There's a knife in the glove box." "Help cut me out." "All right, it's more intelligible like this." "Nobody can understand." "See here..." "I can't identify..." "Come on in." "This is much better." "It's simpler." "We got to be able to explain this thing." " I need to talk to you, Mike." " I'll be done in five minutes." "Mike." "It's important." "Excuse me." "What is it?" "It's a flash file on Peter Kingsley." "I pulled it up just a few minutes ago." "Peter Kingsley, the man Jack Bauer thinks is behind the bomb." "There's a record of phone calls that Kingsley made... some as recently as six hours ago... to a soldier named Jonathan Wallace." "Wallace was a member of the Coral Snake Brigade." "He apparently killed his own men." "I know who Wallace is." "The planes have passed over their final checkpoint... and will be reaching their targets within the hour." "Our primary targets are all military... but one includes a command and control center inside a residential area." "As smart as our weapons have become... there may be some collateral damage." "You mean civilian casualties." "Yes, sir." "There's no way to avoid these?" "I'm afraid not." "Then it's something we're just going to have to live with." " Ryan Chappelle." " "Ryan, this is Mike Novick."" "How can I help you, sir?" "I know there's been some confusion today... about the veracity of the Cyprus audio." "Not really." "Our teams came to the same conclusion as Langley." "Do you happen to know if Jack Bauer is still trying to find evidence... that the recording was fabricated?" "Yes, I believe he is." "But he's operating outside our authority." "I want you to assist his investigation." " Sir, I don't even know where he is." " Then find him." "Mr. Novick, I'm not sure why you're asking me to do this..." " but I was told we're already at war and to proceed accordingly." " We're not at war yet." "You have 30 minutes to report back to me... the findings of Bauer and your efforts." " But, sir..." " That's a direct order, Ryan." "You have my channel." "I want you to call me back on this line." "That's all." " " I'll be on the plane" within the hour." " Why the delay?" "The bomb detonating in the wrong location created a little extra work for me." " Nothing to worry about, I hope." " No, not at all, sir." " I won't bore you with the details." " Bore me." "I still have to take care of Alex Hewitt." "Hewitt is the only one who can bring this whole thing down." "You told me you'd have him by now." "I wasn't able to find him, but I'm taking care of it." "Don't worry." "Sit down, both of you." "Look, you don't need Michelle here." "She was acting under my orders." " I can defend myself, Tony." " I said sit down." "I need you to get me in contact with Jack Bauer." "Oh, I see." "Jack got some support above you, and now you're being squeezed, right?" " Can you do it or not?" " What's going on?" "Bauer's evidence might actually have some relevance." "Which means we were right." "No." "You damn near put me in a coma." "That's assault." "I tell you what, Ryan." "You drop the charges against us... and we'll help you." "Come on, Ryan." "You of all people know that's your best move, right?" " Fine." " In writing." "All right, all right, in writing." "Just get me in touch with Bauer." " Shouldn't we just call for help?" " There's no one to call." "I'm not working under C.T.U.'s authority." "As far as they're concerned, I don't exist." " So we're out on our own?" " Completely." " "Hey, you folks all right?" "You need some help?"" " He got hurt." " Can you get us to a hospital?" " Uh, yeah, yeah, sure." "Mrs. Palmer, you need to drive." " Wait a second, what do you mean she needs..." " Sorry, but we need your car." "Hey, easy, all right?" "Go ahead, take it." "It's yours." "Thank you." " They're ready, sir." " Thank you." "Have not been able to confirm his whereabouts." " Miss Warner." " Yeah?" " Hi." "Carrie Turner." " Hi." "Kate." " "You must be Jack's daughter, Kim."" " Where's my dad?" "He's still in the field." "Why don't you wait here for a moment?" " I'll go tell Ryan Chappelle that you're here." " I'll handle this, Carrie." " I thought you were in custody." " I was released." "Kim, I heard what happened to you." " You all right?" " Yeah, I guess so." "Look, I just want to see my dad." "Make sure he's okay." "Yeah." "He's not here right now." "He won't be back for a couple of hours." " Does he know I'm here?" " No, not yet, but we'll tell him as soon as he phones in." "Listen, Jack insisted we call as soon as we get here." "I understand." "He's just not reachable right now." "I'm going to have Carrie take you back and get you situated." "I'll be there in a minute, all right?" "Hey, it's gonna be okay." "Okay." " Miss Warner?" " Hmm?" "Look, I don't know if you're aware of this..." " but your father came back here after we released him." " Why?" "He wanted to talk to your sister before she was taken away." "They brought Marie back here?" "Yeah." "You lied to me." "You killed Reza." "You tried to kill your own sister." "You were willing to set off a nuclear bomb... in a city with ten million people." "You tell me why, because I need to understand." "Tell me that they forced you to do it... that they brainwashed you, that they threatened you." "You can tell me that you didn't know what you were doing." "There must be a reason." "There is no reason, Dad." "I can't accept that." "I couldn't either... until I looked into her eyes and she pointed a gun at me... and started to pull the trigger." "Trust me, Dad." "She's not going to give you any answers." "She can't." "At least nothing that we could ever understand." "Dad." "Come on." "Let's go." "Kate." "You think you'll be safe out there?" "You won't be." " "Jack, it's Tony."" " Tony, you back in play?" "Yeah." "Look, Jack, Kim's here at C.T.U." " She's safe." " Thank God." "Look, don't tell her what's going on." " Just tell her I'm going to be back as soon as I can, okay?" " I will." "Listen, Jack, this is Ryan." "We need to talk." "Ryan, you son of a bitch." "You stopped that chopper from picking up me and Hewitt." "Hewitt's dead." "I'm holding you personally responsible." "Listen, Jack, things have changed." "You've got full support." "Give me your mission profile." "I've set up a meeting with Kingsley." "We're going to meet him at Los Angeles Coliseum, Gate 18." "Mrs. Palmer's agreed to wear a wire." "She's going to get him to confirm... that the three Middle Eastern countries had nothing to do with the nuke." "I want you to stand down until you get some support." "Our people will be there soon." "No." "We don't have time." "Kingsley's expecting the meet to go down now." "You need backup." "Ryan, if you want to help me, get me voiceprints of Peter Kingsley..." " and Sherry Palmer now, to use for authentication." " Done." "I also need a live audio feed to the White House." " You want an audience with the president?" " Yes." "All right, you'll have it." "Make sure you keep the line clear." "Copy." "We're pulling into the coliseum now." "We need to get a SWAT team to his location." "Pull over there." "Wait here for me." "Come on." "Let's get you wired." "Take your jacket off your shoulder." "This is a wireless transmitter." "They won't know to look for it." "They won't be able to trace it." "This is crazy." "We shouldn't be doing this alone." "We don't have another choice." "Just remember..." "Kingsley doesn't want to leave here without Hewitt." "That's got to be to our advantage." " Okay, say something." " I'm scared." "Okay, it's working." " Yes, Mike?" " Uh, Mr. President..." "I am against any delay in our military actions..." "I have been from the start." "But there is a good chance we will receive conclusive evidence in the next half hour... the Cypress recording was false." "Mike, we know Second Wave brought the nuke into the country... and we know Second Wave is sponsored by these three countries." " What am I missing here?" " I don't have all the details, Mr. President... but I just learned about a possible link..." " between Second Wave and a man named Peter Kingsley." " Who the hell is he?" "He's apparently part of a consortium of oil interests with contracts in the Caspian Sea." "So what are you saying?" "An oil consortium's behind the nuke?" "Jack Bauer believes he can get a confession from Kingsley." "He's set up a live audio feed." "Mike, our bombers are due to drop their payloads in less than 20 minutes." "Bauer's meeting Kingsley any minute." " " This is a live voice print."" " Testing, one, two." "And this is a voice file we have on record... which will prove that it is, in fact, Sherry Palmer." "One, two, three, testing." " "There, it's confirmed."" " All right." "The one below is Kingsley?" " Yeah." "If it matches, we're good." " Are you guys getting this?" " We're good here." " Okay." "How far out is our backup, Ryan?" " They're 11 minutes out." " That's too long." "We've got to go now." " Just wait, Jack." " We can't wait." "We're already ten minutes past the meeting time." "Is Prescott ready?" "Yeah." "Tony's on with the White House." "They're setting up a live audio feed now." "Okay, good." "We are set to go." "How are you doing, Mrs. Palmer?" "What's to prevent Kingsley from shooting me the moment I appear?" "Kingsley won't do anything until he gets Hewitt." "But the moment he realizes we don't have Hewitt?" "I'll be covering your back." "That's not very comforting, considering the condition you're in." "I may not make it out of this." "I'm not going to lie to you, Mrs. Palmer." "That's a possibility." "I'm doing this for David." "You know that, don't you?" "Yes." "Will you tell him that?" "In case something happens." "I'll take care of it, Mrs. Palmer." "You've got to go now." " Got it?" " It's good." "Line's confirmed." " Mike." " Yes, sir." "They just finished setting up the feed." "I hope this isn't going to be a waste of our time." "Believe me, Mr. President, so do I." "What's going on, Mike?" "The president and I thought you should be part of this." "Along with Prescott and the attorney general..." " we will be listening to a live feed." " Of what?" "A sting operation against Peter Kingsley." ""It appears he" was "the architect" of today's bombing... and the delivery of the Cypress audio." "Bauer found Kingsley?" "Yes, but it won't be Bauer who'll be talking to Kingsley." "What difference does it make, as long as we get him to incriminate himself?" "What is it, Mike?" "It's Sherry who'll be talking to Kingsley." "I don't understand." "It seems that Kingsley recruited her some months ago." "She was part of this." " Sherry is working with this man Kingsley?" " It appears that way, sir." "To detonate a nuclear bomb and start a war?" "No." "It's unclear how much she knew or how deep she was in it." "We just have to hope she can extract a confession from Kingsley." "So now Sherry is working with Jack Bauer to bring down Kingsley?" "Yes." "And at considerable risk to herself." "Scott, don't do anything until I tell you to, all right?" " "We need Hewitt."" " Understood." "Where's Hewitt?" "He's safe." "Where is he?" "You lied to me." "You wanted this bomb to go off all along." "You used Roger Stanton, and you used me." "Yes, I did." "Well, now I'm tied to you and the nuclear detonation." " I want safe haven." " That's your problem." "Well, I just made it yours, because you won't see Hewitt until I'm safe." " Don't horse trade with me." " Don't insult my intelligence." "Confirm." "Got a match on Kingsley's voice." "Ryan, we got it." "You're not going anywhere until I have Hewitt." "That doesn't work for me." "I'll call you on this line to give you Hewitt's location... after I'm safely away." "You don't need to know where I'm going." " Jack, we're not getting what we need here." " She'll get it for you." " Now there's the matter of the recordings." " Oh, they're right here... every phone conversation between you and me." "No." "I want all of them, including Cyprus." "Now, why would you want Cyprus?" "You had nothing to do with that." " Insurance." " "Insurance?"" "Once the country goes to war... the government's never going to let that be exposed." "Hewitt is the only one who can hurt us." " Because he forged the Cyprus recording." " That's right." "Okay, Tony, you got your proof." "Let me go in." "Give me the green light." " Get a confirm from the White House." " Just a second, Jack." " She can't stay out there much longer." "Come on." " This is Almeida." " Are you satisfied?" " C.T.U. Wants to know if that's enough... to prove the Cyprus recording's false?" "Have you confirmed that this is indeed live... and these voices have been authenticated?" "Yes, sir." " So, that's it?" " Yes." " When I land, I'll call you." " Mm." "You're bluffing." "You don't have Hewitt, do you?" " Oh, yes, I do." " No, you don't." "Scott, take her out." "Kill her." "Run, Sherry!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "Mrs. Palmer, get out of here!" "Go!" "Jack Bauer." "You caused me a lot of trouble today, Jack." "You're not going to give me Hewitt, are you?" " It's clear." " All clear!" "Watch your back now." "To the right." "Go!" "There's someone down!" " "The back window is clear."" " Mr. President, our bombers are three minutes from the targets." "Initiating sequence 6-1-Tango-1." "Target in view." "Weapon five." "Are we go for a strike?" "Are we go for ARC-P1?" "Prescott, we are awaiting command." "Abort the attack." "Flight." "Abort." "Abort." "Division One Avalanche." "What do you mean Kingsley is dead?" "How could that happen?" "I warned you not to use him." "So, we did use him, and he failed." "But it won't matter." "Once the war starts, we'll be okay." " It isn't going to start." " Why is that?" "The president found out about the Cyprus recording and called off the attack." "There isn't going to be any war, Max." "Well, we're going to have to do this another way." " Another way?" "What are you talking about?" " You'll find out." "It'll start today." "It's me." "Go ahead." "The cabinet has annulled its earlier action." "I've instructed the Secret Service to resume... its charge of serving "you" as President of the United States." "I see." "I've also tendered my resignation, effective immediately... and those members of the cabinet who voted against you have also agreed to resign." "Jim... gentlemen, ladies... we came dangerously close to war today." "That all of us reacted emotionally... to the nuclear detonation is understandable." "But leaders are required to have patience "beyond" human limits." "The kind of action we nearly took... should only be exercised after all other avenues... have been exhausted... after the strictest standard of proof has been met." "By casting me aside so quickly... you effectively lowered those standards... and that was a profound mistake." "It was not, however... a mistake you're likely to make again." "Therefore, I do not accept your resignations." "We have a nation to heal today... and all of you play a vital role in that healing process." "Mr. President..." "I don't know what to say." "There's nothing to say." "We have work to do." "That'll be all." " Jenny, I want you to set up a press conference." " When?" "As soon as you can make it happen." "And I want it public." "I want to speak to the people directly." "They deserve my assurance." "Yes, sir." "Mike..." "I want to thank you again for calling C.T.U. In the 11 th hour." "Of course, Mr. President." "But you should have been with me to the end." "That's what I expected of you." "That's why I appointed you." "I'm relieving you of your post, effective immediately." "Yes, Mr. President." "Thank you, sir." "I can't take all the credit myself." "It's a great team George Mason put together here." "A terrific job." "Congratulate them, tell them good work." "Yes, I will." "Thank you, sir." "Tony, that was District Director Vaughn." "He's so happy with what we did here today, he doesn't know where to start." "That's great." "So, what's up, my friend?" "Well, uh... it's like this." "Either fire me or get out of my chair." "The chair's all yours." " Hey." " Hey." "The new shift is here." "They've been brought up to speed." "I was thinking I'd get my brother and go home." "Um..." "Michelle, um... there's a handful of people who made a big difference today... and you're one of them." "You made some tough choices and went up against me... and I want you to know that you were right." "Thanks." "So, uh... why don't you go home and get some rest?" "Michelle." "See you tomorrow." "I'm sorry, ma'am." "I'll need to see the contents of your bag, please." "I'm Kate Warner." "This is Kim Bauer." "Yeah, sure." "Uh, yeah, you can go ahead." " All right." " Thanks." " Excuse me." " " Coming through."" "Excuse us." " "Hey, honey. "" " Daddy." "It's gonna be all right." "I know." "I love you." "I love you too." "Dad..." "I'm gonna take care of you." "I urge you, in the strongest possible terms... not to indulge any rumors or theories... that you may have already heard or may soon hear." "Once the facts are known..." "I will present them to you myself." "Until then, know that we are all safe... and that we will continue to be safe." "The most patriotic thing that we can all do today... is to keep living our lives." "So I urge you all, go back to work... go back to school... because the freedom we enjoy, the freedom that we earn every day... is the very thing that will defeat our enemies... and keep us strong." "God bless America." "God bless us all." "Thank you." "Thank you very much." "God bless you." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Good to see you." " Thank you." "Thank you." " " Mr. President, over here, sir."" "Bless you." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Thank you." " Mr. President!" " God bless you." "Thank you." "Hi." " Excuse me, Mr. President?" " Thank you." "Mr. President?" " Hi." " Thank you." " God bless you." " Thank you." " Yes?" " It's done." "Thank you." "Mr. President?" " " The president's down!" "He's down!" - "The president's down!"" "" We need medical assistance!" "Help!"" " " Stop that man" right there!" "Search him!" " " Mr. President?"" " "Check him for weapons!" - "Oh, my God!"" "Mr. President, are you all right, sir?" "We need an ambulance!" "Help!"
