" Reza's parents are here." " " Where is Reza?"" "Men from the government are here talking to him." "Who wired that money into Syed Ali's accounts?" "Bob Warner." "Marie's father." "Come with me, please." " What did you tell them?" " The truth." "How did you get in here without my authorization?" " " I need to talk to you."" " You're not my wife anymore." " It's not about us." " Then what?" "There are members of your own administration allying against you." "That's why I came here today." "Megan, I need to get you out of here, because I want you to be safe." " Okay." " Come on." "I called all the departments." "Your daughter's not with them." "" Then where the hell is she?"" "Give her to me, Kim." "We need to get out of here." " Get his car keys." " Nina killed your wife." "I don't want you near her." "My goal is the same as yours.' To stop this bomb." " Who is the man at Visalia?" " The man at Visalia is Mamud Faheen." "He's the only one who knows where the bomb is." "The team's assembled in Visalia." "We'll have tactical and field units." " Jack..." " It's all right, Ed." "It's all right." "Just take it easy." "Move." "Jack drugged Miller to get me alone." "Tell Mason." " Is he in the van?" " Yeah." "He's going to come to in about 20 minutes." "He'll have a bit of a headache." " "Here's the command authority."" " I owe you, Doug." "Thank you." ""No problem."" "Get in the plane." "Agent Bauer." "Rick Phillips, F.B.I." "Agent Harris and myself will be your transits into Visalia." "We'll act as reinforcements once we're on the ground." "So we're clear here, Jack, I know what you did to Ed Miller." "Rick, right?" "Do yourself a favor." "Stay out of this." "Do your job and get us to Visalia." "My job is to make sure this runs smoothly." "That means keeping her safe." "Consider me your new chaperone." "I need two lines of communication set up through C.T. U... one for mobile, one for the translator." " "It's gonna be tricky." Their phone lines are still sketchy." " It's already done." "Good." "Way to go, Kate." "You broke his parents' hearts too." "I'm so sorry, Marie, but I don't know what these government people found." "And believe me, I wish they hadrt have found anything." "But aren't you curious?" "Why are they asking Dad questions now?" "Because you started a witch hunt in our family." "No, Marie." "It's because Reza is connected to some bad people." " Maybe even terrorists." " You're out of your mind." "We're not going to put our heads in the sand, Marie, or this could end up hurting Dad." "We're not gonna let that happen." "Come with me." "What did you tell them, Reza?" "What did you accuse my father of?" "I didn't accuse him of anything." "It's his company, not mine." "What's that supposed to mean?" "You're pointing your finger at him to cover yourself!" " Kate!" " Stay out of this, Marie!" " Don't talk to her like that." "Now, you listen to me." "I have done more for your father than you will ever know... and all I've ever gotten from you is suspicion and resentment." "And you know what?" "I'm sick of it." "Well, I'm not the one that connected you to a terrorist." "No?" "Then who did?" "Because I don't know any terrorists, Kate!" " All I know is that you paid for someone to dig up dirt on me." " Well, apparently, he did." "No, he didn't, because all he found out was stuff about Bob, not me." "So, if anybody's guilty of anything, it is your father." " Don't make this about my father." " Just stop it." " Don't you dare!" " Stop, Kate!" "Both of you, stop it." "Nice work, Kate." " Well, why don't you just call me when you get that?" " I'll have it for you." " Is 4:00 too late?" " "No, that's good for me."" " " I'll talk to you then." - "Yeah, good." "All righty." "Bye-bye."" "Heh!" "Well, if it isn't the chief of staff himself." " Mike!" " Sherry." " You look beautiful, as always." " Oh." "What are you doing here?" "Did David ask you to come here?" "Uh, no." "I just showed up on my own." "So... how have you been?" " Fine, Mike." "Just fine." " Yeah?" "Yeah." "Well, you know, it's been a challenging year." "But what is it they say?" "We, uh, learn from our mistakes... and grow from our misfortunes." "Have you, uh, told that to David?" "No." "I don't think he's ready to hear that yet." "Not now." " Mm-hmm." " But he is waiting for you, so why don't you just go on in?" "I'll see you later, I'm sure." "Here you go, sir." "You don't speculate, don't say anything." " We simply don't know where he is." "That is our position." " " Yes, I understand."" " All right, all right, good." "Thank you." " You're welcome." "Sir, we have to talk about Ron Wieland." "What about him?" "Does anybody know we have him sequestered?" "Well, no, but Jenny just got a call from Wieland's production crew." "They haven't seen him in the last four hours... and pretty soon they're gonna figure out the last person they did see him with was you." "Then leak a story." "Mike." "Good to see you." "I got here as soon as I could, Mr. President." "Hi, Lynn." "Mike." "I spoke to Armus." "He brought me up to speed on the Wieland situation." "I did some research." "Found out there is precedent for the executive branch... taking action against the press at times of national crisis." "Mm." "So, when you say leak a story, what kind of a story?" "What..." "Make it appear as though Wieland went to Portland... for the rest of the day on a personal matter." "Armus can arrange that." "It's a Band-Aid, but it'll get us through the day." " Talk to Armus." "Put it in motion." " Yes, sir." "I saw Sherry on my way in." " Mm." " "Should I attach any significance to that?"" " It was her decision to come here." " That's what she said." "But I have to tell you, I'm surprised you're allowing her to stay." "For the time being, Mike." "Just for the time being." "Let's go to the O.C. I'll bring you up to speed." "There's a lot to cover." " You want to send that on to Division?" " " Yes, sir."" " Mr. Mason." " Yeah?" "I just got off the phone with Ed Miller." "How's it going between Jack and Nina?" "He doesn't know." "Jack drugged him and got on the plane without him." " Please tell me you're kidding." " Sloane's bringing Ed back now." "What do you want me to do?" "They're on a plane to Visalia." "There's nothing anybody can do... except hope that his impulse for revenge doesn't cloud his judgment." ""Cloud his judgment"?" "You mean like drugging one of our agents?" "What can I say?" "The guy's a little crazy." "That's why I didn't want him here in the first place." "But he gets results, and we need some pretty big results here." "So..." "Just because Sherry tells you that there's a conspiracy in the government arraying against you... that doesn't make it true." "But if it is true, it will affect every aspect of our response to this bomb." "Sherry was right about the military evacuation of Los Angeles." "That's specific information." "She still has well-routed sources." "But a conspiracy?" "Don't forget where she's coming from." " She may have her own agenda, Mr. President." " I'm well aware of that, Mike." "She's on a tight leash." "I want to find her source." "Let me look into this so-called cabal against you." "If there's any substance to it, I'll uncover it." "Right now, the country needs your attention on this situation in L.A." " Start with Stanton." " Stanton?" "The head of N.S.A. Conspiring against the president of the United States?" "Aside from the enormous implications if that were true..." " hasn't he always been an ally to you?" " Yes." "But he's also Eric Rayburn's boss." "It's not inconceivable that Rayburn could be doing Stanton's bidding." "Those two have always been on the same page, Mike." " That's not enough to indict Roger." " I know." "That's why I want you to check him out." "I'm hoping you can prove me wrong." "I'll talk to Roger soon as I settle in and see if I can get a read on him." "Thanks, Mike." "How long till we land?" "About 10 minutes." "How far is Faheen from the airport?" "I'll tell you when we land." "Can I have some water?" "We're fighting the clock here, Nina, so you better start talking to me." "How far is Faheen from the airport?" "We need her to cooperate, Jack." "Threatening her isn't gonna help." "Fine." "Get her changed." "I need her to look like a civilian." "Come on." "Let's go." "No." "Here." "She doesn't leave my sight." "But it's workir out, right?" "Well, why don't you come by and see?" "We're..." " It's not the Ritz Carlton, but it's working for us." " Okay." "I'll come on down." "I gotta go." " All right." " Yeah?" "Jack's about to land in Visalia." " Have they got a location for Faheen out of her yet?" " No, not until they land." " Stay on it." "I'll be down in a minute." " Right." "Double espresso for the lady... and it's hot." "Out of three, and five cents is your change." " Hello?" " John, it's your father." " Hello?" "You there?" " Uh, yeah, yeah." "I'm here." "Look, I, uh..." "I know it's been awhile." " Two years." " That long?" " Yep." " Well, that's my fault." "Look, John, I'd really like to see you today." " I can't." " It's important." "Dad, listen, uh..." "You can't just call me out of the blue... and expect me to jump, because first off, I don't really want to see you." " Even if I did, I can't." "I'm busy." " Look, I know I screwed up." "I understand if I'm not your favorite person in the world right now." "But can you just set that aside and do this one thing for me?" "I need you to come to C.T.U." " You know where that is, right?" " I can't do it today." "I told you." "I'm in the middle of something." "Just tell me what's goin' on." "I need to see you, John." "That's what's going on." "You know what?" "You're not listening to me, Dad." "I'm in the middle of something right now." "I'm gonna have to call you when I have a chance." "Get up." "" Bring it in now."" "Let's go." " I'm Agent Dockerty." " Jack Bauer." "Agents Phillips and Harris." "We're all set up." "All we need now is a location." "Where we going, Nina?" "What's the location?" " It's a thrift store on North Collins." " What's the name?" " Crescent Collectibles." " What's our transportation?" "Three teams, three vehicles." "They're waiting for your orders." "Crescent Collectibles is in the De Anza district." "That's not too far from here." "We can set up base camp here at the airport." "Do it." "Take her." " What do you want to do with her?" " She stays with me." "Why?" "Keep her here." "My guys will watch her." "She'll be out of the way." " I'm gonna use her." " Use her how?" "You'll see." " All right, everyone." "Thank you." " " Thank you."" " Roger." " Mike." "I heard you were here." "I understand the president handed Eric Rayburn his walking papers." "Well, Eric messed up." "The President was right to dismiss him." "Still, he fired someone you appointed." "It takes character to support that." "I've got a nasty workload today." "You'll have to excuse me." "Actually... the President wants me to insert myself into your day." "Well, that might be difficult." "I'm moving a mile a minute here." "I understand." "I'd like to have a look at any paper you have on the most active leads." " Let me play catch-up." " All right." "I could use a little help in the civil response area." "Great." "I'll be working up here in Four." "Get me what you've got." "Update me." "Well, C.T.U. Los Angeles is yielding the most promising leads." "They raided a warehouse this morning within city limits... and they found weapons-grade nuclear material." "Langley is using satellite playback as we speak to determine who was there." " A suspect was killed?" " There was a shootout." "Division's having a hard time I.D.'ing the body." "What's this?" "Well, apparentlyJack Bauer is still involved in the investigation." "But I thought he was dismissed after he completed this morning's assignment." "No." "He's heading the team that's tracking Mamud Faheen." "And Nina Meyers, the woman you granted immunity to this morning... she's helping them." " Jack Bauer and Nina Meyers are working together?" " Yes, sir." "I believe he volunteered." "What's the time divisibility?" "From the time we break in until we get him secured we estimate 30 seconds." "What about going through the roof?" "We're looking at the building plans to see if it's viable." "It's not." "He'll have sensors on the walls and foundation." "If you go in through the front door, that'll give Faheen enough time to commit suicide." "If he's so willing to die, why'd he leave Los Angeles?" "He doesn't want to be collateral damage... but that doesn't mean he won't give up his life to protect the plan." "We can't afford to take a chance." "We need this guy alive." " Gas canister?" " It won't work." "He knows all our protocols and he's prepared." " How does he know your protocols?" " She gave them to him." "Doesn't matter." "Nina, you're going in." " What?" " He knows you." " He also thinks I'm in prison." " You better make him believe you got out." "The day his bomb's supposed to go off?" "He'll know I'm lying." "You're a good liar, Nina." "The only way he's gonna know is if you let him." " We need 30 seconds." " He is going to put a bullet in my head... before I can say "hello," then he's gonna turn the gun on himself." "We'll make sure he doesn't turn the gun on himself." "How's it looking?" "Good." "We've got all the channels open." "We're just waiting for the feeds." "Do we know what dialect of Arabic Faheen speaks?" " Yeah." "Nina gave us the information." " " Mr. Mason."" "Tony Almeida's on the line." " Yeah, Tony." " Naiyeer's starting to talk." "He says that Bob Warner's the one that had dealings with Syed Ali." "Of course, Warner claims he doesn't know anything about it." "Bring 'em both in." "We'll separate 'em and turn up the heat." "Are you giving me the okay to arrest these people?" " If they don't come willingly, that's exactly what I'm doing." " On what charge?" "I don't care if it's jaywalking." "Just bring 'em in." ""Okay." "You got it."" " What's going on with my father?" " Give me a minute, please." "I need you to get Bob Warner." " We'll finish this up at C.T.U., okay?" " Got it." "Reza, I'm gonna need you to come with us." " Come with you where?" " Back to C.T.U." " For what?" " Further questioning." "I'm not going with you anywhere." "Look, I'm not arresting anybody..." ""yet"... but I will if you force me to." "Now, you're coming with us either way." "How we do this is entirely up to you." "Just do what the man says, Reza." "Don't argue with him." "Bob, I haven't done anything wrong." "He can't arrest me." "Reza." "Reza, please." "Do this for me." "Okay?" " Then I'm coming with you." " No, we can't take you with us, ma'am." "Then I'll follow you." "You've ruined my wedding day." "I'm not going to let you separate me from my fiance." "Right this way." " Dad..." " Call everyone." "Explain the wedding's been postponed, okay?" " Okay." " I want you to call Larry, and tell him where I am." " Dad, Larry's a tax attorney." " Doesn't matter." "Doesn't matter." "He'll know what to do." "Okay?" "All right." "Good afternoon." "Ah, you two haven't been formally introduced." "Lynne Kresge, Sherry Palmer." "Lynne." "It's lovely to meet you." "Mrs. Palmer." "Um, Mr. President, there were a few guidelines... from Director Stanton that I wanted to go over with you in this meeting." "Okay." "Let me just break the ice here." "Lynne, I have invoked executive privilege... and have granted Sherry a provisional security clearance." "I see." "This meeting's about the possibility of people inside this administration..." " who may be organizing against me." " A-Against you?" "David, um, maybe you should, uh, bring Lynne up to speed... on where we are with Roger Stanton." " Mr. President?" " Lynne, I'm sorry." "Things have been happening too fast today." "Our problems are compounded by the possibility of a dissenting faction." "And you think that Roger might be a part of that?" " It's possible." " If you don't mind my asking, sir... what led you to this hypothesis?" "It troubles me to articulate this, Lynne... but the ambassador's helicopter accident solved a lot of Roger Stanton's issues." "Sir, those issues were shared by many others..." "I'm so sorry to interrupt, uh, David... but there's something else that you probably don't know, Lynne... and that is that Roger Stanton has been having secret meetings... with the minority leader in the Senate... and Eric Rayburn... has been in attendance." "Well, actually, Sherry, I am aware of those meetings." "They were trying to forge a bipartisan base in order to stop... questionable allocations that were being made by the Armed Services Committee." "And, sir, the only reason I did not brief you on this earlier... is because the vote is not for another two months." "But I have very detailed records if you would like to take a look at them." "This doesn't solve any of our problems today." "We've got to avert a disaster... and we can't do that if our own people are working against us." "Now, I need to know that Roger Stanton... is supporting this administration." "I'm already working alongside Roger." "Lynne, I'd like you to keep track of your conversations with him as well." "Now, I've put together a list of people on the Hill... who might be able to help in this matter." "Thank you, Mike." "L.A. Investigations." "Paul Koplin speaking." "Uh, hi, Paul." "This is Kate Warner." "Is Ralph Burton there?" "No, I'm sorry, Kate." "Ralph's not here." " Can I help you with something?" " I need to talk to Ralph." "Well, he left for the day." "You know, he works for me." "I'm familiar with the case." "Is there something I can do for you?" "I need some help." "I have to get into my father's private records." " Lynne?" "Lynne." " Yes?" " Can I have as sec?" " Sure." "I, uh, know that you're uncomfortable with me taking some of these tasks from you." "After all, I'm not officially on David's staff." "Mrs. Palmer, my discomfort has nothing to do with you being on his staff." "My only concern is to protect and to serve the President." "I need to know the people around him are competent." "I simply don't know you." "Well, you seem like a pretty smart woman, Lynne." " So let me explain something to you clearly." " Mm-mm." "David did not get here by himself." "He's had competent people around him his entire life." "Obviously, you're one of them." "Not necessarily the best, just the most recent." "So have some respect for those of us who put him into office." "We just might be able to help you." "Fair enough." "Be careful, Sherry." "I need Lynne." "Don't turn this into a competition." "I understand." "I just..." "need her to know... that I'm not just around here as window dressing." "I'm sure she got the message." "I'll behave." "Promise." "Sherry... you don't have a lot of friends here today." "In fact... it seems like every time I turn around... somebody's advising me to send you away." "Then why don't you?" "Because you may be able to get information that nobody else can." "Okay." "Slow down." "As soon as we get a positive I.D. Through your camera, we'll be in within 30 seconds." "This is it." "Get out." "Get out!" "All teams on alert." "Nina is in play." "Nina is in play." "This is Team 2." "We've got her." "Roger that, Team 2." "Stay on frequency 1." "Michelle, can you read me?" " Copy, Jack." " Okay, she's in." "We're moving into position now." "Is there something I can help you find?" " I need to see Mamud." " I'm sorry." "I don't know any Mamud." "Tell him Nina is here to see him." "Nina?" "Wait here, please." "Nina." "Come with me." "Michelle, all I've got is static." "There's nothing on my monitor." "What's going on?" "She's leading her through a door into a hallway." "Against the wall." "Hands in the air." "Now it looks like they're checking her for weapons." " What are they saying?" " She said they thought she was in prison." ""Nina said she escaped."" "Now they're taking her into another room." "It looks like the one off the east exit." " Who is she talking to?" " I can't tell." "The target's still in shadow." " Well, what are they saying?" " She said, uh..." "She's explaining who she had to pay to escape from prison." "Jack, should we go?" "No, not until I have confirmation that it's Faheen." " My audio just went dead." " Yeah, I lost mine too." " Okay, that's it." "Everybody, go." " " Okay." "Let's go."" "Yaah!" "I have it clear!" "Stand in position!" "Come on!" "Sweep!" "Let's go!" "Stand in position!" " "Go, now!" "Go, go!" - "Go!"" "Phillips!" "Faheen's unconscious." "She's gone." "Nina's gone." "Secure the building." "This is Phillips." "We need medics at the east entrance." "" Drop it."" "We're just leaving L.A. Right now, Aunt Carol." "We'll probably be another four or five hours." "Okay, we will." "Bye." " Damn it." " Oh, you gotta be kidding me." "Just play it cool." "Cool?" "We're in a stolen car." "Your license and registration, please." " Did I do something wrong?" " "You were speeding."" " Registration too." " Um, this is my boss's car." "I'm not sure where he keeps it." "I'm sure it's in here somewhere." "I think this is it." "Here you go." "Okay." "I'll be right back." " What the hell are you doing?" " Anything else I can do for you, George?" " No, Ken." "I got it from here." " Got it." "I'm sorry, John." "Hey, I told you I needed to see you, right?" "Oh, God." " What happened here?" " Never could get you to watch the news, could I?" "If you're looking to bond here, Dad... having your son arrested probably isn't the best way to do that." "I don't have much time, John." "Things are happening here." "I, uh..." "I can't go into it fully." " You could never go fully into much of anything, could you?" " It's my line of work." "That's just something you should look into if you decide to start a second family." "That's not gonna happen." "Look, I understand if you're angry." " I'm not angry, Dad." "I don't care." " Eh..." "I really just don't understand what you're trying to do here." "Uh..." "I got this bank account that's, uh..." "Nobody knows about it." "It's got a couple hundred thousand dollars in it." "I want you to have it." "There's the... number for my bookkeeper." "I've already spoken to him." " He's gonna be transferring money to your account." " Let me get this right then." "You bring me here to tell me you're giving me money?" "What'd you expect me to do?" "Did you expect me to give you a hug?" "I don't want your money." "Well, then, give it your mom." "I'm sure she does." "The thing is, I'm not gonna be needing it, so..." "Yeah, why is that?" "Why is that, Dad?" "Listen, you don't bring me here... offer me a small fortune then not tell me what's going on." " I'm dying, John." " You son of a bitch." "Is it cancer..." "or something?" "Something like that, yeah." "Look, John." "Something bad is gonna happen in Los Angeles today..." " and I need you to leave town." " Leave now?" "I want you to go to Phoenix." "Stay with your mom for a little while, yeah." "I mean it, John." "It's dangerous to be here." "I can't explain it to you." "But you just have to go, okay?" "Just go." "Dad, listen." "I don't..." "This doesn't..." "Damn it." "You're a good kid." "I hope I didn't mess you up too bad." "You all right?" " Get out of here, all right?" " Can you just..." "Just get out of here, okay?" "Oh, God." " We can't let him take us back to L.A." " I know." "Why is it taking so long?" " You say this is your boss' car?" " Yes." " Who's the little girl?" " Oh, I'm her au pair." " "Her what?"" " She baby-sits her." "I wasn't talking to you." "I'll tell you what." "I'm gonna let you get off with just a warning this time." "But you slow down." "All right?" "Yes, Officer." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Hold up." "You want to step out of the car and open up the trunk?" "Step out of the car and open up the trunk." " " Oh, my God."" " Put your hands on your head." "Lay on your stomach." " I don't know anything..." " Get down, get down!" "Get down!" " "Get out of the car!" Keep your hands on your head." " "I don't know anything."" " Get out of the car, please." "Lay down on the ground." " "What's going on?"" " "I said, get down on the ground!" - "Carla!"" " Oh, my God!" "He killed her!" " What's happening, Kim?" " Come on." "On the ground." " Megan, get back in the car." "Put your hands behind your head." "Stay there." "Cross your legs." "Stay there." "Stay still." "Officer in need of assistance."
