24

Previously on 24.

C.T.U. is being absorbed by the Department of Homeland Security,

and Christopher Henderson remains an open protocol.

Ms. Raines signed a detailed statement...

documenting the numerous missteps made today by C.T.U.,

and by you in particular.

I don't understand. Why am I staying and everybody else is being let go?

Because Ms. Raines requested that you keep your position.

I had to keep Karen from replacing you.

That's why I signed the document. I didn't have a choice.

Why were those men trying to kill you?

David had a source inside the White House.

- Who's the source? - Mrs. Logan's assistant.

I have proof about who's behind everything that's happened today.

Someone killed David, and then just tried to kill me.

I have to go. Give me what I need!

They kidnapped my little girl.

Evelyn, I promise you we're gonna get your daughter back.

I already told them, I wouldn't give up any information until I have my daughter.

We need Henderson alive. Do not shoot to kill. I repeat, do not shoot to kill.

- Did you bring what we discussed? - I have the evidence with me.

I want my daughter.

- She's moving. -

Give me the evidence, Evelyn.

- Now. -

Wayne, I didn't get him. If you got a shot, take it.

Chloe, it's Jack. Henderson escaped in Evelyn's car.

Do you have him on satellite? We can't loose him.

Evelyn's been hit!

It's not serious, but it's gonna have to be dressed.

Evelyn, you got your daughter back, now tell me what I need to know.

Who is behind this? Is it the vice president?

The vice president has nothing to do with this!

You promised me you would control the situation.

I didn't count on Jack Bauer showing up, sir.

Bauer and Wayne Palmer won't be around long enough to tell anybody else what they know.

I will not let you down.

See that you don't.

The following takes place between 11:00 p.m. and 12:00 a.m.

...White House imposed martial law and curfew...

still in effect throughout the Los Angeles area,

all traffic has been restricted to military, police and emergency vehicles.

Wayne, turn that off.

Okay, Evelyn, I need you to stay focused. The recording of the phone call...

that you made between President Logan and Henderson is in a safety deposit box.

Which bank? Which bank?

City Trust and Savings in Agoura Hills. Where's the key?

- In my jacket pocket. - Mom?

It's all right, sweetheart. Your mom's gonna be fine.

She's gonna be fine, okay?

Jack, you heard what they said. We have to get off this road.

There are military patrols everywhere.

The motel up there on the right, turn in there.

I wanna go home.

We're gonna get you home, honey. We're gonna get you home.

Wayne, can you get us a room? I'll keep watch.

I want you to keep pressure on the wound. I'll be right back.

Hello? Audrey, it's Jack. Have you got Henderson on satellite?

No, Chloe wasn't able to reposition in time.

Damn it. Are you still on a secure line? Yes, why? What's going on?

Evelyn didn't implicate Gardner. She implicated President Logan.

Oh, my God, Jack. Logan? Are you sure?

She said he was responsible for everything that happened today,

starting with providing the terrorists with the nerve gas.

That's what David Palmer found out. That's why they killed him.

Are you saying that President Logan ordered Palmer's assassination?

Henderson gave the order, but Evelyn says she has evidence...

that shows that President Logan was complicit. What kind of evidence?

She recorded a conversation earlier this morning between Henderson and President Logan.

She put it in a safety deposit box. We're on our way to get it now.

Jack, the city is under martial law.

I know. I need you to upload every military checkpoint to my P.D.A...

so we can navigate our way around them. I'll take care of that.

Audrey, as soon as I have the recording, we're gonna have to involve your father.

We need someone in the government, someone credible, to present the evidence.

All right. He's on his way back from a summit in Japan.

I'll call him on the plane. Okay. Make sure you leave C.T.U. before you do anything.

- You don't think that they can be trusted? - We can't trust anyone.

Logan will have every law enforcement agency, the military,

they're all at his disposal, and he will use them to try and stop us.

Don't fill your father in on the particulars.

Just try and set up the meeting.

I'll get back to you as soon as I have the recording. I'll upload those checkpoints.

Wayne.

The bank manager was listed. That's his address.

He's not far. Good. Let's get them in the room.

Hey, we need to get inside now.

Come on, it's okay. Just try to stand up.

I need you to sit right here, okay?

Okay, lay down here on the bed.

I'm sorry, but it's not safe enough to take you to a hospital yet.

Let me see. Let me see.

Wayne, take Amy outside for a second.

Come on, sweetie.

Okay, even though the bullet went through, I'm still gonna have to clean out this wound.

It's gonna hurt, but I promise you I'll get you to a hospital as soon as I can.

In the meantime, I'm gonna have Wayne look after you.

No, I'll be fine. You need to get the evidence.

And you'll need help. Are you sure?

- Yeah. - Okay.

Put pressure on it.

Sweetheart, you can see your mom now. Go ahead.

Give me the car keys. Let's go.

I haven't been able to pick up Bauer's trail yet. So he got away.

And there's nothing to stop him and Wayne Palmer from going to the media...

with everything they know.

Jack knows there's no point in going public until he has proof.

He won't make any accusations until he has that evidence in his hand.

This evidence, this... this recording that Evelyn made of our conversation,

are you any closer to finding out where she's hidden it?

No, sir, not yet. But she was wounded, and I will find her.

We're monitoring hospitals, emergency services.

This is containable, I promise you.

Please, spare me your promises, Mr. Henderson.

It's all gone wrong. None of this should have happened.

All these killings.

This whole thing was planned to make our country safer,

stronger, to protect our interests.

And it all spiraled out of control when you decided to kill David Palmer.

Mr. President, what's done is done,

and right now we have to focus on stopping Bauer before he finds that recording.

No, you have to focus on it.

Why haven't the analysts finished the hourlies?

They're still getting up to speed on C.T.U.'s protocols.

We knew this wasn't going to be a seamless transition.

Sometimes I wonder if it was even a necessary one.

Karen, C.T.U.'s performance today has been considerably less than stellar.

Dozens of people have been killed,

and they weren't even able to prevent an attack on themselves.

Do you really believe under the circumstances that we could have done any better?

Ms. Hayes, the president is on line one.

Put him through to Bill Buchanan's office. I'll be working there from now on.

And have Medical notify me as soon as Bierko's regained consciousness.

Miles.

- Yes, Mr. President. - Karen,

- do you know where Jack Bauer is? - Not at the moment, sir.

He was due back here 30 minutes ago to lead the Bierko interrogation.

- He's gone off grid. - I'm not surprised.

Karen, I'm issuing an executive order...

for the immediate apprehension and arrest of Jack Bauer.

I want you to run point on this, and I want you to make this C.T.U.'s top priority.

Yes, sir. For purposes of the warrant,

I'll need to know what Bauer's being charged with.

His role in the assassination of President David Palmer.

But I understood that he'd been exonerated of that charge, sir.

You yourself reinstated his credentials.

I know, but I didn't have all the facts then.

Some new evidence has come to light. New evidence?

Yes. I'm looking at it right now,

and I will forward it to you at the appropriate time. Yes, sir.

Karen, obviously this is a very sensitive matter.

And for now, I would like you to treat the origin of this warrant as confidential.

Understood, sir. Good.

Put out an alert on Jack Bauer to all federal law enforcement agencies and N.S.A.

I'll also give military the warrant. They have more men on the street than anyone.

I don't like this.

Pulling our resources off finding Christopher Henderson...

to go after Jack Bauer without knowing the evidence?

It's a direct order from the president.

You know if we really wanna find Bauer,

we need to keep watch on anyone he might contact for help.

Starting with Audrey Raines.

What's this?

Chloe, open it up and make it look like this is what we're talking about.

Okay.

Can you get me a secure channel so the calls on my cell phone can't be monitored?

Using a V.P.N. pathway, sure. It'll take somebody about an hour to crack.

Why? What's going on? I just spoke with Jack.

Gardner isn't the one who's behind this. It's President Logan.

What?

Jack is on his way getting proof. I'm leaving now to go help him.

Take a C.T.U. walkie.

Audrey.

It's a warrant for Jack's arrest. It's starting.

- What do we do? - Heading out?

Yes. I'm gonna try to grab a couple hours of sleep.

I came to talk to both of you about the warrant.

Well, let's start with why the hell it was issued.

There's new evidence implicating Jack in David Palmer's assassination.

That's ridiculous. I was there when the assassin confessed.

- All you have to do is check the logs. - I know about the logs, Chloe.

- My orders are to bring Jack in. - New evidence?

- Have you seen it? - It's forthcoming.

- Who ordered this, Karen? - I'm not at liberty to discuss that.

When was the last time you spoke with Jack?

About an hour ago. We haven't had contact since.

I hope I don't have to remind either one of you...

that you have a legal obligation to notify me if Jack contacts you.

Look, I know this may seem odd to the both of you.

Frankly, it does to me.

But let's remember it's in everyone's best interest to bring Jack in peacefully.

Have a good night.

Thank you.

[Phone Beeping, Line Ringing] Harris.

Valerie, Audrey's on her way. What's your status?

We're placing the transponder on her car right now.

Good. There won't be many cars on the road,

- so use the tracker and stay out of sight. - Will do.

We don't want anything to stop Audrey from leading us to Bauer.

That's the house. Okay.
