"Previously On 24" "Here are all the access codes for CTU and division." "Thanks." "I'm probably gonna be gone a while." "If you need anything, you can always call me at home." "Excuse me, sir." "Driscoll's replacement's arrived." "Tony, I want to thank you for filling in." "I'd like you to stick around and assist Miss Dessler." "Who?" "Michelle Dessler, do you know her?" "I used to be married to her." "I have to go to McLennan-Forster." "Why there?" "It turns out the man we're looking for works there." "Need to get into their computer system?" "Yeah." "Okay, I'll go with you." "So how can I help CTU?" "One of your employee, a Harris Barnes, is actually Habib Marwan one of the terrorists responsible for today's attack and the theft of the override device." "We need you to take your I.T.Systems off-line so Paul can look into his directory." "CTU will subpoena those files." "They will find out the truth." "Damn it." "What's he doing?" "He's trying to rebuild the files I deleted." "Look at this." "Son of a bitch,It's encrypted." "That's it." "Print it out, now!" "Now!" "He's going to find evidence we sold arms to terrorists." "The pulse bomb, we have to use it, now." "We're dealing with an EMP." "Once it goes off, everything within its radius that has an electrical component gets fried." "I'm going to try and stop it." "If I don't, I want you to take the hard copy and try to meet me in the front of the building." "A CTU agent is heading down near you." "Don't let him anywhere near it!" "Oh, my god." "The following takes place between 7:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m." "Our any electronic device is working in that area?" "Only the battery power device." "How many square miles were affected by the blackout?" "Approximately, eight." "The southeast quadrant of downtown." "Okay, hold your position until the readings stabilize." "Copy that." "Any word from Jack or Paul?" "No." "Once the pulse bomb went off, we lost all communication with them." "What was the last word we heard from them?" "Well, Jack and Paul found something." "It seems it must have been incriminating to McLennan-Forster." "So that's why they set off the EMP, to destroy the evidence." "That'd be my guess." "This doesn't make sense." "The fact that McLennan-Forster is taking aggressive action, is evidence against them." "Yeah, but it's not proof." "Curtis, could Jack or Paul been injured from the detonation?" "No, an EMP only damages electronics." "But it doesn't mean they're safe." "We know you printed a document before the EMP detonated." "Where is it?" "It's up to you." "You decide when the pain stops." "Call me when he talks." "Drop the gun or I'll kill him!" "I said drop it!" "Paul?" "Where's the data printout?" "I hid it in an office down the hallway." "I know you're hurt, but we've got to get it and get out of here." "Let's go." "It's here." "Take a seat." "Where is it?" "Bottom drawer, under some folders." "I hid it because I thought I might be captured." "Is this it?" "Yeah, it's in code." "I couldn't make any sense out of it." "We need to get it back to CTU." "I don't think I could have held out much longer." "You did great." "Let's go." "For those of you who don't know, this is Michelle Dessler." "She'll be taking over as acting director of CTU, effective immediately." "Tony, I appreciate you carrying the ball until Michelle got here." "Why don't you bring her and everyone else up to speed?" "Yes, sir." "Less than an hour ago we discovered that the man responsible for planning today's attacks" "Habib Marwan, has been a long-term Employee of McLennan-Forster the third largest defense contractor in the country." "Now we know that Marean's been using the alias Harris Barnes." "What we don't know yet, is how he managed to evade their security checks." "Marwan knows we're looking for him, so he's probably gone dark." "But his association with McLennan-Forster has become our primary focus." "Jack Bauer and Paul raines went to the company to inspect his computer files." "But as they were doing so, an electromagnetic pulse bomb was detonated wiping out the company's entire database." "It also fried every electrical device within an eight-mile radius." "Streetlights, computers, cars, cell phones, everything." "Were Jack and Paul able to find anything before detonation?" "Yes, but we haven't been able to contact them since the blast." "We have to assume whoever detonated the EMP thinks" "Jack and Paul found something and wants them eliminated." "Have rescue teams been sent into the area?" "Not yet." "Once we've confirmed that the affects have subsided, we'll send two teams in with fully-functional electronics." "The only problem is, until we find Jack and" "Paul, they're not going to be able to do much." "We want to do everything we can to find Jack Bauer and Paul raines." "But the priority is to retrieve any information they found at McLennan-Forster." "That's all." "Tony?" "I need the access codes for CTU and division." "Thank you." "What do you want me to do?" "Division is sending over a supplemental list of terrorists that supposedly had contacts with Habib Marwan." "I want you to check any names that have been flagged by other agencies, including overseas." "Given what's happening right now, it doesn't seem like the best use of my time." "It has to be done." "And I'd like you to do it." "Michelle, Jack and Paul have information that could be vital in helping us end this crisis." "I should be helping us find them." "Michelle... the last time I saw you, you couldn't stay sober long enough to keep a job." "That was six months ago." "This is what I need you to do." "If you don't like it, you can resign." "I'm gonna need a security clearance." "I'll make sure you get a level three." "A level three?" "I used to have a six." "Right now, all you need is three." "Is there a problem with agent Almeida?" "Not at all." "It's just that Secretary Heller is very sensitive to personal conflicts on the job." "I know your history." "I know that you guys were married and that he sacrificed his career to save your life." "But if this is going to be a problem... his being here will not affect my work." "I won't let it." "Now, if secretary Heller wants to speak to me about it, I'll be more than glad to." "We are receiving preliminary reports from LAPD, indicating that there is widespread looting going on in the blacked out zone." "A number of cars have been set on fire, stores have been ransacked, shots were heard." "There may even be casualties." "We just don't know at this time." "Shots were heard?" "That could be the same people that are after Jack." "I don't get it." "What information could Jack have found that would be worth setting off a pulse bomb?" "Something that implicates McLennan-Forster." "Anything they're doing now is insignificant if there's proof that they helped Marwan with today's attacks." "This is Anderson." "It is time for you to go." "Marean, your face is all over the news." "Don't worry about it." "Things will proceed as planned." "Are you ready?" "Yes, of course." "How long will it take you to get there?" "Less than 30 minutes." "I'll inform the others." "The helicopter's heading to McLennan-Forster, and it's not responding to any of our id requests." "You sure?" "Yeah, I'm positive." "Michelle." "There's a chopper flying through the dead zone, not one of ours." "Police?" "No." "Not one of theirs either, I checked." "We wouldn't have picked it up if it wasn't for its electronic signature." "Where's it going?" "Straight for McLennan-Forster." "Now, is it possible that it can be some sort of corporate rescue chopper?" "They would have given the police a call sign." "No, that's a search and destroy mission." "A chopper that size carries 20 men fully armed." "Who would have sent it?" "Whoever set off the EMP." "They're going in after Jack and Paul." "McLennan-Forster's been training mercenaries for years." "Contact our field teams in the air." "Let them know about the intruding chopper." "Be right back." "Jack, I can't do this." "Don't have a choice." "Come on." "Get me some gear!" "These are the two men we're looking for." "They have a document, a computer printout that's encoded." "We need to erase these two men and recover the document." "Just be aware one of them is a CTU field agent." "You want us to kill a federal agent?" "I'll take care of him personally." "He went bad." "Started helping the terrorists and dragged the company into it." "LAPD is beginning to respond to this area." "So we're going to have to do this quickly if we want to stay off of their radar." "Use that to keep in touch." "Sir, we just spotted two men heading east on addison." "Deploy your men in a flanking position about a mile down the road, and then start moving in." "We'll fan out and come in from behind." "You got it." "Give me that chopper back on the northwest corner." "Let's move!" "Come on, this way." "This way." "Where do we go now?" "Weapons and ammunition." " Get away from me!" " Get down!" "Get out of here, or the next one won't miss!" "I'm a federal agent." "Yeah, sure you are!" "Get away from here!" "Look, we need your help!" "Go!" "Now!" "Okay, just relax." "I'm leaving!" "Okay, I'm leaving." "Drop the weapon." "Now!" "Kick the gun over to me." "Paul!" "Get in here." "Pick up that gun." "My name is Jack Bauer." "I am a federal agent." "Well, you should have been here to help us to stop the looting." "You still have any rifles or they get them, too?" "Behind the counter, yeah." "Show me." "We're the first to be hit because everybody knows we're arab americans." "And we're good citizens." "We had nothing to do with what happened today!" "Be quiet, Safah." "He doesn't care." "Look, take what you need, but leave us two guns." "We've chased the looters off once, but they'll be back." "Just stay there." "Give me the keys." "What are you guys doing here?" "We needed to take cover." "What do you mean?" "Who's after you?" "It has to do with the terrorist attacks." "I have critical evidence that I need to get to the authorities." "The men that are chasing us are responsible for this blackout." "They detonated a device called an electromagnetic pulse bomb." "It destroys all electrical activity within an eight-mile radius." "So everything that's happened to us tonight-- the looting, the blackout-- it's all because of the terrorists?" "Yes, and the evidence that I have can help prevent further attacks from happening." "Jack, the commandos will be here any minute." "Commandos?" "He's right." "You both need to leave this store." "Right now, we're their target." "You're not safe here with us." "Why don't you leave?" "This is our store." "If I had a choice, I would!" "You have weapons and shelter." "Right now, there is no other place for us to be." "Can I talk to my brother for a second?" "Stay where I can see you." "What's the plan?" "CTU knows we're in trouble." "They also know we can't contact them." "They can view this area with satellite and infrared." "McLennan-Forster's commandos arrived in a military helicopter." "CTU had to see that on satellite." "If we can initiate a large enough fire fight we can force their commandos to use radio frequency to communicate their positions." "And CTU will pick up the signal?" "Yes." "So you want to engage the McLennan-Forster army, just the two of us?" "We have a positional advantage, and we only have to hold out until CTU gets here." "My brother and i talked about this." "We're staying." "I can't force you to leave your own property." "But this is not just a bunch of looters." "This is a very dangerous situation." "I cannot guarantee your safety." "You don't understand." "For years, we've been blamed for the attacks by these terrorists." "We grew up in this neighborhood." "This country is our home." "If you're fighting the people who caused today's bloodshed, then we'll help you." "I agree." "The president should stay in the air at least another hour, if not longer." "If he wants to speak to the nation, he should do it from air force one." "Keep me informed." "I have an update on the damage from the san gabriel island meltdown." "It's not quite as bad as we had feared." "How are you doing?" "Sit down." "Any word from Jack or Paul?" "No." "I can't imagine how hard this must be for you." "There's something else, isn't there?" "A couple of hours ago when we thought that Paul was somehow involved with the attacks, Jack questioned him." "And Paul has his pride, so he resisted, but..." "Jack was pretty rough?" "Very." "That's his job." "He had to make sure." "You have to believe that Jack had no choice." "I know, I guess it was just a shock to see it." "Somehow he seemed like a different person." "We need people like that, Audrey." "Jack is an incredible man." "Just... but you're not sure you feel the same way as you did before, is that it?" "Something like that." "Could I speak to you for a moment?" "It's important." "Okay." "Um..." "I don't have much time." "You're aware i was falsely accused of leaking information earlier today." "Yes, I saw the report." "Erin Driscoll didn't talk to you about it?" "Or leave a memo?" "Her daughter died today." "I think she has other things on her mind." "I understand." "But there are some things that still need to be handled." "What things?" "Well, she promised the accusation would be expunged from my record and I'd be bumped up two pay grades as compensation, so I just want to make sure that will still happen." "I'll look into it, but not today." "What happened to me was an outrage." "If you don't do something to resolve it right now, I'll go directly to Secretary Heller." "Secretary Heller doesn't run CTU, I do." "And I am ordering you to go back to work." "Not until you assure me the false accusation will be expunged and my pay grade changed." "I need security to station one." "Security?" "What for?" "I need people whose minds are on their jobs." "Yours isn'T." "Oh, so you're firing me?" "You can't do that." "You need me." "I'm juggling active protocols." "We'll manage." "Please escort Miss Gavin out of the building." "Make sure you get her access card." "You'll be sorry for this." "I promise you will." " Is the back entrance locked?" " Yeah." "Put one of these in each window." "Have extra ammunition standing by." "Then I want you to get two hunting vests, fill all the pockets with empty clips." "Go." "Ms. Gavin won't be working with us anymore." "I'll need the two of you to divide her workload." "We're stretched pretty thin as it is." "Everyone on the floor is up to their necks already or not qualified to replace her." "You may want to reconsider." "No, I don't trust her." "Then what about agent Almeida?" "Michelle, we can use the help and he's already proven himself useful today." "Agent Almeida, please come to station six." "Yeah." "You'll be working with agent Stiles and manning for the rest of the day." "Edgar, I need you to call up Sarah's protocols." "Check the configuration, make sure they're accurate." "Okay." "I'll advise internal stations of the personnel changes." "Give me an update first." "The zone is still pretty quiet, except for emergency vehicle chatter." "There's no sign of Jack or Paul." "CTU's tact teams are standing by." "But the best we can do is spread them around the perimeter, and wait for some sign of Jack." "I think that's a mistake." "We should consolidate our teams." "Be ready to meet strength with strength." "And where would you place them?" "At the McLennan-Forster building." "Jack won't be far from there." "Look, he knows we won't be able to find him without help." "He's going to help us by starting a fire fight." "I know the way he thinks." "Now the hostiles are going to have to break radio silence when they attack." "When they do, we can follow the signal straight to where he is." "He's going to deliberately engage an entire team of commandos?" "It's the most efficient way to be found." "And he's going to expect us to be ready for it." "Stick with the original plan." "Cover the perimeter." "Michelle." "If we send all our teams to one location and you're wrong, Jack and Paul won't survive an attack." "If we cover the perimeter, we may have a chance to save them." "Do it." "There's one of them." "It's time." "No one fires until I give the order." "Team leader, this is specter." "I was just shot at." "I'm on the northwest corner of stringer, between flower and third." "He's not returning fire." "Because he's alone." "He's calling for backup now." "What do we do?" "Wait for them to come full force." "Just stay ready." "Audrey?" "Yes?" "Could you let dod know that we've piggybacked onto local law enforcement channels in the blackout zone?" "I told them earlier we might need to use their feeds." "So you don't need them any more?" "No." "All right, no problem." "Um, look, I didn't mean to be confrontational before." "Just... when you walk into a hailstorm, you have to be decisive." "I understand." "And I know where you're coming from." "I think that you're making the right decisions, but... but what?" "I think that you should re-evaluate your professional opinion of Tony." "Why's that?" "This morning Jack had nowhere to turn." "And he went to the one person that he knew would come through for him and that was Tony." "Tony saved our lives." "I didn't know that." "After that, we just spent a couple hours with him.It's true" "Tony does have a lot of issues, but he is good at what he does and I think that we could use him on a day like today." "Fair enough." "And business aside... he still cares about you." "I got those perimeter teams you asked for ready to go." "Thanks." "Tony, look, I just want you to know that... just because I overruled you a few minutes ago doesn't mean that I don't value your input." "Don't patronize me, Michelle." "I'm not." "Look, you ran CTU for two years." "Anything that you have to say, I will consider seriously." "Don't worry" "I'm going to tell you what I think whether you want to hear it or not, all right?" "Good." "These guys are going to be here any minute." "You sure you both want to do this?" "Yeah." "My brother and I, we're more angry about these attacks today than you are." "So we're going to stand up." "We're going to try and be part of the solution." "I'm sorry this had to happen in your store." "Yeah." "Our father left us this business when he died." "He worked his whole life to make a good name for himself in the community." "This store is his legacy." "But if he were here right now, he'd be standing next to you just as we are." "Just stay low and do what I tell you." "Thank you... for saving my life." "Yeah." "They're here." "Tony, Michelle just said that you were doing a search on possible ties to Marwan." "May I help?" "Do you have a sign-on for the Zeitgeist server?" "In washington?" "Yeah, it would save me time if I could use it on this search." "Yeah." "There you go." "Thanks." "Anything else?" "It should kick off a few names." "You can help me run them down once it's done searching." "Okay, great." "So, um... did you tell Michelle what happened today?" "I said that Jack called you." "Anything else?" "Well, I didn't say you that were living with anyone, if that's what you mean." "She probably already knows that and I'm sure she couldn't care less." "So, uh, how are you and Jack faring with him out in the field today?" "It's different." "A lot different than Washington." "Yeah, it is different." "To tell you the truth, I couldn't believe it when" "I heard that Jack had taken a desk job in D.C." "He said he was happier this way." "Well, you've gotten the chance to see him in both worlds today." "You think he'll go back to wearing a suit?" "After the hell Jack's been through, do you think he'd want to come back to this?" "Some people are more comfortable in hell." "Are you talking about Jack... or yourself?" "I think we found them!" "See those signals underground?" "Each one's a radio, all using the same frequency." "That's because they're planning an attack." "They converged on a location on flower and third, about a quarter mile from McLennan-Forster." "You were right, he's actually drawing them in." "Sporting goods store, across the street." "Let's move." "Bravo one, move in." "Infrared is picking up automatic weapon fire at the site of the radio transmission." "How much longer before our teams get there?" "The ground teams are closest." "They'll get there first." "When?" "At least five or six minutes." "Who's helping him?" "I don't know." "They've got to be civilians." "We need to end this quickly and get that document." "Is that understood?" "Yeah." "I understand." "Let's go." "Raji!" "Hey, raji!" "Hey, hey, raji?" "You okay?" "Raji?" "Hey, look it." "Fall back!" "Hurry, take my shotgun." "Okay, because of the night vision goggles if they get within ten feet of you, shine your flashlight in their eyes, it'll blind them." "Okey." "Jack!" "Jack!" "The gunfire stopped." "The teams on site?" "Not yet." "Without enforce the commandos could have taken over the location." "Which means they might have taken the information back from Jack and Paul." "Get in touch with the teams." "I'll update division." "If McLennan-Forster win the firefight, what about Jack and Paul?" "There's no way to tell." "CTU personnel are approaching the location." "CTU, this is Castle, we're about to engage." "How many hostiles have been sighted?" "Six down outside, unknown number inside." "Lee, it's Tony." "Are Jack and Paul still alive?" "Unknown at this point." "All right, look, the hostiles cannot be allowed to leave the area with the information Jack took from McLennan-Forster." "Do you understand?" "We'll do the best we can." "No, lee, listen to me." "Failure is not an option." "That information is what this whole thing is about." "Roger that." "Jack!" "Yeah?" "I'm here!" "You and Raines safe?" "Yeah." "All hostiles are down.We're clear." "Copy." "This is Castle." "Get me CTU." "Curtis." "Curtis, this is castle." "Yeah, Lee." "What's your status?" "The location is secured." "Jack and Raines are safe." "What about their information?" "Unknown at this point." "All right, keep this line open." "Jack's okay." "The team's secured the store." "What about Paul?" "Yeah, he's with them." "Does Jack have anything from McLennan-Forster?" "We don't know yet." "They're still cleaning up the area." "All right, stay in touch with the team." "Whatever they get from Jack, be ready to work up." "You got it." "Yeah, Dan." "You want people to help?" "No, no, my people will take care of that when we sift through the data." "All right, you sure you don't need it?" "Yeah." "All right" "Yeah." "Okay." "Jack and Paul are okay." "What about the information?" "We don't know if Jack has it yet." "But even if he does, we don't know that he's going to bring us any closer to finding Marwan." "Well, we know that McLennan-Forster is involved." "That should yield some leads." "Well, it's going to have to be worked up here, because" "McLennan-Forster's computers were all knocked out by the EMP." "You want to head that up?" "No, you know what?" "You should probably let Curtis handle that." "All right, I will." "I shouldn't have said that earlier, about your drinking." "I was out of line." "I'm sorry." "You don't owe me an apology." "My life right now... let's just say that I've been better, and, um... quite frankly, seeing you here today, um, has only made things worse." "look, I'm going to leave and get out of your hair and let you do your job, all right?" "No." "We can't afford to lose you." "Not today." "You're sure?" "Yes." "Yes, I'm sure." "All right." "I'm going to make sure you get some help putting the store back together." "We'd appreciate that." "Thank you." "Thank you." "I need you to get this to CTU." "It needs to get decoded immediately." "I also want you to set up a detail." "Five of your best men." "Nothing happens to this store, do you understand me?" "Jack!" "Look out!" "Paul?" "Paul?" "Paul?" "Medic!" "Come on, stay with me." "Come on, Paul, Stay with me." "No, no, Paul." "Paul, stay with me." "Come on, look at me." "Look at me." "There you go." "Look at me." "I owed you." "You don't owe me anything." "Just stay with me, okay?" "Jack." "Ok, the medic is here." "Jack, let the medic do the work." "Any problems?" "No, I'm here." "Are we on schedule?" "Yes." "What about you?" "I'm leaving now." "The president of the united states is on a tight schedule." "We can't be late."
