1
00:00:14,745 --> 00:00:17,832
There are cabinet members
who question whether you're fit
2
00:00:17,998 --> 00:00:20,835
to continue as chief executive of this country.
3
00:00:21,001 --> 00:00:23,421
We are invoking the 25th Amendment.
4
00:00:23,587 --> 00:00:29,510
I intend to show your erratic and irrational
behavior since the start of this crisis.
5
00:00:29,677 --> 00:00:32,012
You see the results. The vote is against you.
6
00:00:32,179 --> 00:00:35,349
Please remove yourself from
the decision-making process.
7
00:00:35,516 --> 00:00:40,438
I swear that I will faithfully execute the
office of the President of the United States,
8
00:00:40,604 --> 00:00:41,856
so help me God.
9
00:00:42,022 --> 00:00:46,610
I got a message that the president
called off the military offensive.
10
00:00:46,777 --> 00:00:47,945
- Is it true?
- Yes.
11
00:00:48,112 --> 00:00:49,613
- You knew about it?
- I did.
12
00:00:49,780 --> 00:00:53,868
Why keep my people processing
intel on a scrapped operation?
13
00:00:54,034 --> 00:00:58,038
There's a strong possibility
the White House will reinstate the attack.
14
00:00:58,205 --> 00:01:00,458
- Dad?
- Sweetheart.
15
00:01:00,624 --> 00:01:04,712
- I've been trying to reach you.
- Are you at the sheriff's station?
16
00:01:04,879 --> 00:01:09,133
They're taking me to the Mathesons' house
to pack up my things. Glad you're OK.
17
00:01:09,300 --> 00:01:10,468
Me too.
18
00:01:10,634 --> 00:01:12,470
- Have you got the audio file?
- No.
19
00:01:12,636 --> 00:01:16,307
Are you saying there's
no audio file on that chip?
20
00:01:16,474 --> 00:01:18,476
If there were, they were destroyed.
21
00:01:18,642 --> 00:01:22,062
Michelle traced the sequence
to a hacker named Alex Hewitt.
22
00:01:22,229 --> 00:01:26,025
- He created the Cyprus audio file?
- Yes.
23
00:01:28,194 --> 00:01:31,822
I'm checking up on a man
who engineered the recording.
24
00:01:31,989 --> 00:01:35,576
Are you convinced that
the Cyprus recording is forged?
25
00:01:35,743 --> 00:01:38,579
Yes, sir, without a doubt.
26
00:01:38,746 --> 00:01:40,831
Alex?
27
00:01:53,719 --> 00:01:56,514
- Hewitt's not here.
- I'm not surprised.
28
00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:00,017
Check the garage, see if his car's still here.
29
00:02:22,873 --> 00:02:26,710
Even with the delay, we predict
we have not lost the element of surprise.
30
00:02:26,877 --> 00:02:31,632
As you can see here, sir, the primary
targets are still relatively unguarded.
31
00:02:31,799 --> 00:02:34,468
Resistance should be insignificant.
32
00:02:34,635 --> 00:02:38,389
- When were these pictures taken?
- Ten minutes ago, sir.
33
00:02:39,223 --> 00:02:41,725
Then we can proceed
with the attack as planned.
34
00:02:41,892 --> 00:02:44,061
Yes, Mr President.
35
00:02:55,698 --> 00:02:58,075
I need your key codes, sir.
36
00:03:05,082 --> 00:03:07,418
How much longer will Prescott detain me?
37
00:03:07,585 --> 00:03:10,254
Until after the press conference.
38
00:03:10,421 --> 00:03:14,341
In a couple of hours, he's going
to announce the US response to the bomb,
39
00:03:14,508 --> 00:03:17,219
and his ascension to the office.
40
00:03:18,721 --> 00:03:24,310
Your key codes belong
to President Prescott now. It's protocol.
41
00:04:00,429 --> 00:04:02,514
Confirmed.
42
00:04:28,999 --> 00:04:31,001
Know why Chappelle called this meeting?
43
00:04:31,168 --> 00:04:35,339
No, he just told everybody
to save their work and get in here.
44
00:04:36,840 --> 00:04:39,093
This information is confidential.
45
00:04:39,259 --> 00:04:44,014
It'll stay inside until it's been made public,
which should be in the next few hours.
46
00:04:44,181 --> 00:04:48,352
The cabinet invoked the 25th Amendment
and removed David Palmer from office.
47
00:04:48,519 --> 00:04:52,022
- Jim Prescott is now the president.
- Why?
48
00:04:52,189 --> 00:04:54,942
That isn't relevant to our charge.
49
00:04:55,109 --> 00:04:58,028
- Yes, it is, Ryan.
- What's your problem, Almeida?
50
00:04:58,195 --> 00:05:02,032
We know Palmer was removed cos
he didn't wanna go on with the bombings.
51
00:05:02,199 --> 00:05:04,702
That makes what Bauer's
doing more relevant.
52
00:05:04,868 --> 00:05:08,789
Bauer has cried wolf twice already.
He's come up with nothing.
53
00:05:08,956 --> 00:05:12,459
I have an order from District
that disallows any further resources
54
00:05:12,626 --> 00:05:14,378
from being expended on him.
55
00:05:14,545 --> 00:05:18,882
Why is everybody so afraid to look at all
the sides of this? What if Bauer's right?
56
00:05:19,049 --> 00:05:23,137
What if it was forged and we're about
to bomb three innocent countries?
57
00:05:23,303 --> 00:05:27,725
Tony, let me first say that your office
has done a remarkable job today.
58
00:05:27,891 --> 00:05:31,729
There is no way the people on the Hill
are not going to reward every one of you
59
00:05:31,895 --> 00:05:34,148
for your role in averting disaster.
60
00:05:34,314 --> 00:05:37,985
- What does that have to do with anything?
- Let me finish.
61
00:05:38,152 --> 00:05:42,573
The success of this office today
is due in large part to the technical team.
62
00:05:42,740 --> 00:05:46,160
The same team that has concluded
that the Cyprus audio
63
00:05:46,326 --> 00:05:49,496
is an untreated, unforged original.
64
00:05:49,663 --> 00:05:55,419
There comes a time when you have
to let go. Not every hunch works out.
65
00:05:55,586 --> 00:06:01,008
Bauer's chasing a ghost.
I can't put it any simpler than that.
66
00:06:01,175 --> 00:06:02,968
That's all.
67
00:06:07,222 --> 00:06:10,851
- What are you gonna do?
- I have to talk to one of Prescott's staff.
68
00:06:11,018 --> 00:06:15,355
If Jack comes in with the evidence,
we need somebody in place to take it to.
69
00:06:15,522 --> 00:06:18,358
If Chappelle finds out
you're doing an end run...
70
00:06:18,525 --> 00:06:21,153
I know. I know.
71
00:06:27,951 --> 00:06:30,287
- The car is gone.
- OK.
72
00:06:30,454 --> 00:06:35,292
- What do you wanna do?
- Kingsley took anything important.
73
00:06:35,459 --> 00:06:39,797
- We gotta find Hewitt. Let's go.
- Stop right there!
74
00:06:40,964 --> 00:06:43,383
- Sit down!
- Let go of me!
75
00:06:43,550 --> 00:06:46,637
Don't move. Don't move!
76
00:06:46,804 --> 00:06:50,808
Who are you? Don't look at her,
look at me! Who are you?
77
00:06:50,974 --> 00:06:53,811
- I'm nobody.
- He's my private bodyguard.
78
00:06:53,977 --> 00:06:57,356
- Secret Service?
- Ex.
79
00:07:02,152 --> 00:07:04,863
- Mrs Palmer.
- Jack Bauer.
80
00:07:05,697 --> 00:07:07,741
- Stand up.
- Why?
81
00:07:07,908 --> 00:07:09,993
- Stand up!
- What are you gonna do to me?
82
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,496
Turn around.
83
00:07:12,663 --> 00:07:15,457
I'm not carrying any weapons.
84
00:07:17,209 --> 00:07:19,336
Take a seat.
85
00:07:33,559 --> 00:07:35,936
- Why are you here?
- Trying to help David.
86
00:07:36,103 --> 00:07:40,190
- You're no longer part of his life.
- Don't believe everything you read.
87
00:07:40,357 --> 00:07:47,030
David's asked me to pool my resources to
see if I can find out who's behind the bomb.
88
00:07:47,197 --> 00:07:51,201
- I don't believe you.
- I don't care what you believe.
89
00:07:58,667 --> 00:08:02,462
Do you know who did this?
Who ransacked this place?
90
00:08:02,629 --> 00:08:07,134
- You're here for the same reason I am.
- What reason would that be?
91
00:08:07,301 --> 00:08:10,304
- To find Alex Hewitt.
- Why?
92
00:08:10,470 --> 00:08:14,141
- You must know. You're here.
- Why don't you tell me?
93
00:08:14,308 --> 00:08:18,770
He created a recording
that's about to start a war.
94
00:08:29,239 --> 00:08:30,657
How do you know about that?
95
00:08:30,824 --> 00:08:33,577
I don't like the way
this conversation is going.
96
00:08:33,744 --> 00:08:37,664
- How do you know about Cyprus audio?
- How dare you talk down to me!
97
00:08:37,831 --> 00:08:40,667
I am not a politician.
I will not debate this with you.
98
00:08:40,834 --> 00:08:44,004
Answer me. What do you know
about the Cyprus recording?
99
00:08:44,171 --> 00:08:47,758
Every expert in the government
with priority clearance
100
00:08:47,925 --> 00:08:51,345
has been working on it for six hours.
I've got a lot of sources.
101
00:08:51,511 --> 00:08:56,934
- What do you know about Alex Hewitt?
- That he's a freelance audio technician.
102
00:08:57,100 --> 00:08:59,853
- Who does he work for?
- A man named Peter Kingsley.
103
00:09:00,020 --> 00:09:01,355
Why?
104
00:09:01,521 --> 00:09:05,025
Kingsley represents Caspian Sea
oils interests that want the US
105
00:09:05,192 --> 00:09:10,113
at war with the Middle East. Kingsley hired
Hewitt to fabricate the Cyprus recording.
106
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,784
Mr Bauer, I've walked the corridors
of power my entire life.
107
00:09:13,951 --> 00:09:18,538
You'd be surprised how much information
you can get if you have something to trade.
108
00:09:18,705 --> 00:09:22,459
- What are you doing?
- Take a seat.
109
00:09:24,127 --> 00:09:26,421
Take a seat!
110
00:09:41,687 --> 00:09:44,690
Come out!
111
00:09:45,983 --> 00:09:49,987
Open the door slowly,
I wanna see both your hands! Now! Now!
112
00:09:50,153 --> 00:09:52,155
Please don't hurt me!
113
00:09:52,322 --> 00:09:54,324
- Get on the ground!
- OK. OK.
114
00:09:54,491 --> 00:09:58,495
Don't move. Get on the ground!
Who are you?
115
00:09:58,662 --> 00:09:59,663
- Mrs Palmer?
- Alex.
116
00:09:59,830 --> 00:10:02,332
You said you would help me.
Why does he have a gun?
117
00:10:02,499 --> 00:10:05,585
- Shut up. Go sit with her.
- I didn't do anything wrong.
118
00:10:05,752 --> 00:10:07,170
- Move!
- You said you'd...
119
00:10:07,337 --> 00:10:10,173
Shut up. Don't say anything.
He's a federal agent.
120
00:10:10,340 --> 00:10:12,092
- Shut up.
- I am not talking to you!
121
00:10:12,259 --> 00:10:14,511
- Shut up!
- Don't say anything, Alex.
122
00:10:14,678 --> 00:10:17,222
Alex, don't say anything!
123
00:10:18,348 --> 00:10:20,392
You're gonna talk to me now.
124
00:10:34,740 --> 00:10:39,703
You took voice samples from three leaders
and intercut them with Ali's for the audio?
125
00:10:39,870 --> 00:10:42,205
- I didn't say that.
- And Kingsley paid you.
126
00:10:42,372 --> 00:10:44,624
- No!
- You're a traitor.
127
00:10:44,791 --> 00:10:48,628
- You know what they'll do to you?
- I'm not. I didn't know, I swear.
128
00:10:48,795 --> 00:10:50,714
I told Mrs Palmer. She'll tell you.
129
00:10:50,881 --> 00:10:53,050
Forget about her. She can't help you.
130
00:10:53,216 --> 00:10:57,304
But if you tell me everything about
the Cyprus audio, I'll do what I can.
131
00:10:57,471 --> 00:11:01,308
- I won't say anything until I see a lawyer.
- I am your lawyer, son.
132
00:11:01,475 --> 00:11:06,563
Those people you worked for thought
you'd die in the bomb. They're after you.
133
00:11:06,730 --> 00:11:10,317
If you wanna stay alive,
start telling me everything.
134
00:11:10,484 --> 00:11:12,569
No, I only wanna talk to Mrs Palmer.
135
00:11:16,073 --> 00:11:21,411
Why her? How's she connected to this?
How do you know her?
136
00:11:21,578 --> 00:11:24,748
I just met her today.
She called, said she could help me.
137
00:11:24,915 --> 00:11:29,586
I know she's the president's ex-wife.
She's got connections high up.
138
00:11:29,753 --> 00:11:35,467
She can't help you now, Alex.
I'm the only one who can help you now.
139
00:11:37,594 --> 00:11:39,805
I wanna to talk to her.
140
00:11:44,643 --> 00:11:48,939
OK. Let me see what I can do.
Give me your keys.
141
00:11:49,106 --> 00:11:51,650
- Why?
- Give me your keys.
142
00:11:55,654 --> 00:11:59,157
- Which one of these locks this door?
- This one.
143
00:12:01,993 --> 00:12:04,329
Just step back.
144
00:12:14,923 --> 00:12:16,967
- What did he say?
- Why are you here?
145
00:12:17,134 --> 00:12:20,220
Please don't tell me it's to help the president.
146
00:12:20,387 --> 00:12:24,349
All right. I came here to protect myself.
147
00:12:25,016 --> 00:12:28,562
Alex was paid by Kingsley
to record certain conversations.
148
00:12:28,728 --> 00:12:31,815
Some of those were with me,
they incriminate me.
149
00:12:31,982 --> 00:12:34,401
You're collaborating with Peter Kingsley?
150
00:12:34,568 --> 00:12:38,071
He assured me that the bomb
would never go off.
151
00:12:38,238 --> 00:12:41,825
What were you thinking?
What the hell were you thinking?
152
00:12:41,992 --> 00:12:44,161
- Who are you calling?
- CTU.
153
00:12:44,327 --> 00:12:47,747
I'm a sworn federal agent.
You just confessed to a federal crime.
154
00:12:47,914 --> 00:12:52,085
- I suggest you hang up that phone.
- I need to speak to Tony Almeida.
155
00:12:52,252 --> 00:12:54,921
I am the only one
who can get Hewitt to cooperate.
156
00:12:55,088 --> 00:12:58,884
And for that, I'll want
full immunity from prosecution.
157
00:12:59,718 --> 00:13:03,346
Now hang up the phone
and I'll tell you everything.
158
00:13:04,222 --> 00:13:09,519
- Jack, it's Tony, what's going on?
- I'm gonna have to get back to you.
159
00:13:13,023 --> 00:13:14,524
Start.
160
00:13:19,237 --> 00:13:23,617
- Start!
- I wanted to bring down David's presidency.
161
00:13:23,783 --> 00:13:26,870
I was so angry with David
for what he did to me.
162
00:13:27,037 --> 00:13:32,209
I worked tirelessly for years to put him
into office. I sacrificed everything.
163
00:13:32,375 --> 00:13:36,546
My career, my family. David betrayed me.
164
00:13:36,713 --> 00:13:40,175
So you wanted revenge.
What did Kingsley want?
165
00:13:42,219 --> 00:13:45,889
Money. A war in the Middle East
would triple the value of his oil.
166
00:13:46,056 --> 00:13:48,975
You're here to ensure
no one connects you to Kingsley.
167
00:13:49,142 --> 00:13:52,729
Yes, like I told you, I came to protect myself.
168
00:13:52,896 --> 00:13:57,067
Look, Mr Bauer, there's only one person
you need to prosecute for this.
169
00:13:57,234 --> 00:14:00,570
And that person is sitting in that room there.
170
00:14:00,737 --> 00:14:03,949
I want full immunity.
171
00:14:04,616 --> 00:14:08,787
Otherwise, it's just your word against mine.
172
00:14:27,806 --> 00:14:30,141
She'll talk with you.
173
00:14:37,649 --> 00:14:40,443
- I know you're scared.
- You said I would be OK.
174
00:14:40,610 --> 00:14:44,239
I know there's been a little wrinkle,
but we can fix that.
175
00:14:44,990 --> 00:14:50,287
What do you think, Aaron? You think
I'm unfit to fulfill my duties as president?
176
00:14:50,829 --> 00:14:55,375
Sir, I'm under orders
not to discuss this with you.
177
00:14:55,542 --> 00:14:57,627
Are you under orders not to listen?
178
00:14:59,671 --> 00:15:01,756
- No, sir.
- Good.
179
00:15:03,174 --> 00:15:07,971
Then I'll do all the talking.
I assume you remember Jack Bauer.
180
00:15:08,138 --> 00:15:09,973
He believes the Cyprus recording,
181
00:15:10,140 --> 00:15:13,560
the single piece of evidence
propelling us into this war,
182
00:15:13,727 --> 00:15:15,812
was fabricated.
183
00:15:15,979 --> 00:15:20,400
I've been removed from office
because I believe in Bauer.
184
00:15:20,567 --> 00:15:25,322
If it wasn't for Jack, Los Angeles
would be a killing field by now.
185
00:15:25,488 --> 00:15:30,994
Still, Prescott and the cabinet
refuse to believe that he might be right.
186
00:15:32,454 --> 00:15:37,167
If Jack finds the evidence after the planes
have dropped their payloads,
187
00:15:37,334 --> 00:15:39,419
then it'll be too late.
188
00:15:39,586 --> 00:15:42,672
We will be at war against
three innocent countries.
189
00:15:44,299 --> 00:15:49,346
I'm sure if Jack Bauer finds evidence,
Vice President Prescott...
190
00:15:49,512 --> 00:15:54,225
I mean, the president, will recall the bombers.
191
00:15:57,062 --> 00:16:02,108
- You're under orders not to speak to me.
- I'm doing my best, sir.
192
00:16:02,275 --> 00:16:05,820
- Your best would be to help me.
- By doing what?
193
00:16:08,073 --> 00:16:12,410
I need to talk to Jack Bauer.
Find out if he's secured the evidence.
194
00:16:23,588 --> 00:16:27,467
If I remember correctly,
you have a son in the Navy.
195
00:16:27,634 --> 00:16:30,053
Yes, sir, I do.
196
00:16:31,596 --> 00:16:37,018
It's a fine thing to defend one's country.
You should be proud.
197
00:16:37,769 --> 00:16:41,231
Let's make sure the cause
he's fighting for is the just one.
198
00:16:43,775 --> 00:16:47,904
Get me a sat phone. I need a secure line.
199
00:16:50,949 --> 00:16:56,329
Put these in the overnight database.
Chappelle's gonna need 'em for his briefing.
200
00:16:56,496 --> 00:16:59,666
Why are you giving this to me?
This is your situation report.
201
00:16:59,833 --> 00:17:02,419
I'm on something else.
202
00:17:02,585 --> 00:17:04,629
What else?
203
00:17:05,463 --> 00:17:09,008
I don't have to explain myself
to you, Carrie. Just do it.
204
00:17:09,175 --> 00:17:11,511
You do need to explain yourself
205
00:17:11,678 --> 00:17:17,100
cos I think you're going behind
Chappelle's back, trying to help Jack Bauer.
206
00:17:19,644 --> 00:17:22,939
Do you really wanna do this, Carrie?
Come after me?
207
00:17:23,106 --> 00:17:28,903
I've been letting you get away with a lot,
but if you want the gloves to come off, fine.
208
00:17:32,490 --> 00:17:34,117
What's going on here?
209
00:17:34,284 --> 00:17:39,205
She's asking me to take on some of
her workload. I just wanna know why.
210
00:17:39,372 --> 00:17:41,458
Why don't you wanna tell her?
211
00:17:45,670 --> 00:17:47,964
It's none of her business, Tony.
212
00:17:48,131 --> 00:17:52,010
Look, just tell her, so we can
get back to work here.
213
00:17:54,262 --> 00:17:56,306
All right.
214
00:17:56,473 --> 00:18:00,477
District's asked me to step in as a liaison
to facilitate the power shift.
215
00:18:00,643 --> 00:18:03,980
I'll be on the phone for the next two hours.
216
00:18:04,147 --> 00:18:07,358
Sounds like a promotion. Congratulations.
217
00:18:12,697 --> 00:18:16,326
- You think she believed me?
- No.
218
00:18:23,041 --> 00:18:27,670
Go over it again.
Look, I need you to find it fast,
219
00:18:27,837 --> 00:18:32,592
even if you need to pull agents who can
help you. This needs to take first priority.
220
00:18:32,759 --> 00:18:35,595
Division's breathing down
my neck for some reason.
221
00:18:35,762 --> 00:18:38,765
- That's something I don't need.
- I'll take care of it.
222
00:18:38,932 --> 00:18:40,517
All right.
223
00:18:40,683 --> 00:18:42,727
- Mr Chappelle.
- Yes, Carrie?
224
00:18:43,394 --> 00:18:46,314
In my opinion, Tony Almeida's
not fit to run CTU.
225
00:18:47,398 --> 00:18:50,777
- Why not?
- He's got Michelle working off book.
226
00:18:50,944 --> 00:18:53,029
- Doing what?
- I can't say for sure.
227
00:18:53,196 --> 00:18:57,867
But I have a feeling the two of them
are still trying to help Bauer.
228
00:18:58,910 --> 00:19:00,995
Thank you.
229
00:19:15,718 --> 00:19:17,679
It'll be fine.
230
00:19:23,935 --> 00:19:25,728
- Almeida.
- Tony, it's Jack.
231
00:19:25,895 --> 00:19:29,649
- What's happening?
- President still holding off on the attack?
232
00:19:29,816 --> 00:19:33,403
Things have gotten worse.
It's not public, but Palmer's been pulled.
233
00:19:33,570 --> 00:19:36,823
- What do you mean?
- His cabinet invoked the 25th Amendment
234
00:19:36,990 --> 00:19:40,326
because he wanted to wait
for confirmation of the recording.
235
00:19:40,493 --> 00:19:42,495
Prescott's now president.
236
00:19:42,662 --> 00:19:47,667
I'll bring evidence proving the recording's
been forged. Prescott won't listen to it?
237
00:19:47,834 --> 00:19:52,505
He won't wait for it. Get me that evidence
quickly, and I'll call Prescott with it.
238
00:19:52,672 --> 00:19:55,508
Start by sending a chopper
to the address you gave me.
239
00:19:55,675 --> 00:19:58,344
- I got Hewitt.
- He definitely made the recording?
240
00:19:58,511 --> 00:20:01,431
- Yes, absolutely.
- Will he testify?
241
00:20:02,974 --> 00:20:04,517
We're working on it.
242
00:20:04,684 --> 00:20:08,021
If I go to Chappelle and request
a chopper for you, he'll deny it.
243
00:20:08,187 --> 00:20:11,274
- He's got orders from District.
- Deal with it, Tony.
244
00:20:11,441 --> 00:20:15,111
We got bombers in the air.
Hewitt's our only chance of stopping this.
245
00:20:15,278 --> 00:20:16,279
I'll do my best.
246
00:20:16,446 --> 00:20:18,114
OK, thanks, Tony.
247
00:20:18,281 --> 00:20:21,034
I know, Alex. I understand your concern.
248
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:25,038
But the fact remains, we both made a mistake.
249
00:20:25,204 --> 00:20:28,041
But we're lucky because they need us.
250
00:20:28,207 --> 00:20:34,047
Any deal I make will include you, and vice
versa. Remember, we're in this together.
251
00:20:34,213 --> 00:20:36,215
Are you sure about this?
252
00:20:36,382 --> 00:20:40,803
Honey, I would never lie to you.
But you have to remember this one thing.
253
00:20:40,970 --> 00:20:45,308
I am the only one looking after
your interest. No one else.
254
00:20:45,475 --> 00:20:49,979
I know how these things work.
Just do as I say, and it'll all turn out well.
255
00:20:50,146 --> 00:20:51,648
What about him?
256
00:20:51,814 --> 00:20:55,818
Don't worry about him. I'll handle
Agent Bauer. He won't be a problem.
257
00:20:55,985 --> 00:20:58,029
He's very low on the food chain.
258
00:21:00,031 --> 00:21:03,493
So, if I do this, you can keep me out of jail?
259
00:21:03,660 --> 00:21:07,997
Absolutely. You'll be granted
full immunity just like I promised.
260
00:21:08,164 --> 00:21:10,208
OK?
261
00:21:18,174 --> 00:21:22,762
All right, Jack, this is how it's gonna work.
He'll come in and testify.
262
00:21:22,929 --> 00:21:26,891
He can demonstrate the technology
in a matter of minutes.
263
00:21:29,310 --> 00:21:33,398
Good. The chopper's on its way.
264
00:21:40,738 --> 00:21:44,701
You heard Chappelle. He won't let us
have a chopper if he knows it's for Jack.
265
00:21:44,867 --> 00:21:48,121
But Jack's got Hewitt,
who definitely made that recording.
266
00:21:48,287 --> 00:21:52,542
- Chappelle can't ignore that.
- He can do whatever he wants.
267
00:21:57,213 --> 00:21:59,632
Let me get back to you, Marc.
268
00:21:59,799 --> 00:22:02,218
- What?
- Jack Bauer just contacted us.
269
00:22:02,385 --> 00:22:03,553
Really? Where is he?
270
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:05,638
- North Hollywood.
- What's he doing?
271
00:22:05,805 --> 00:22:08,975
He wants to bring in the guy
who forged the Cyprus recording.
272
00:22:09,142 --> 00:22:10,226
Fine, let him.
273
00:22:10,393 --> 00:22:12,979
He's too far away. We need to send a chopper.
274
00:22:13,146 --> 00:22:15,982
We've been through this, Tony.
I'm done with Bauer.
275
00:22:16,149 --> 00:22:19,819
He's chasing a trail that leads nowhere.
We're onto other things.
276
00:22:19,986 --> 00:22:26,409
More important than the US launching
military strikes based on false information?
277
00:22:26,576 --> 00:22:29,454
The thing is, Tony, you've been reassigned.
278
00:22:31,956 --> 00:22:34,500
Reassigned? Where?
279
00:22:34,667 --> 00:22:38,004
I'll let you know in a few days.
For now, you can go home.
280
00:22:38,171 --> 00:22:40,173
Ryan, you can't reassign me now.
281
00:22:40,339 --> 00:22:46,179
This recording is real. We are going to war.
We need to prepare for domestic response.
282
00:22:46,345 --> 00:22:50,016
You have made yourself a liability
I just can't afford.
283
00:22:50,183 --> 00:22:53,978
You've got 15 minutes
to clean out your desk and get out.
284
00:23:29,972 --> 00:23:31,224
What are you doing?
285
00:23:31,390 --> 00:23:36,687
They took the disk that had my comb filter.
I'll need to rebuild that file to demonstrate.
286
00:23:39,357 --> 00:23:44,737
OK, the tarball has to decompress.
It'll take about 20 minutes.
287
00:23:44,904 --> 00:23:47,240
- How's it gonna work?
- I'll make a recording.
288
00:23:47,406 --> 00:23:50,493
Right on the spot, shift it around,
reframe segments.
289
00:23:50,660 --> 00:23:54,122
It'll have the same specs as Cyprus.
It'll blow their minds.
290
00:23:55,790 --> 00:23:58,334
- Good.
- And then I'm free to go, right?
291
00:23:58,501 --> 00:24:00,878
That's what she said.
292
00:24:03,714 --> 00:24:06,050
Yes, you'll be fine, Alex.
293
00:24:07,301 --> 00:24:09,679
How come you're being
so nice all of a sudden?
294
00:24:09,846 --> 00:24:12,431
- What do you mean?
- Before, it was all my fault,
295
00:24:12,598 --> 00:24:16,644
you called me a traitor,
and now everything's "Fine, Alex"?
296
00:24:21,566 --> 00:24:24,110
- You're gonna screw me.
- We won't screw you.
297
00:24:24,277 --> 00:24:26,863
You two made a deal,
you're gonna hang me out.
298
00:24:27,029 --> 00:24:31,367
Alex, calm down. We can't hang you out.
You have the proof.
299
00:24:31,534 --> 00:24:34,704
- Without you, there is no deal.
- Then I want it in writing.
300
00:24:34,871 --> 00:24:36,956
- Why can't I have an attorney?
- No time.
301
00:24:37,123 --> 00:24:39,458
There are bombers in the air to start a war.
302
00:24:39,625 --> 00:24:42,378
- You'll have to trust me.
- Why should I trust you?
303
00:24:42,545 --> 00:24:45,965
Why don't you have federal counsel
meet us wherever we're going?
304
00:24:46,132 --> 00:24:47,884
- Excuse me?
- One phone call.
305
00:24:48,050 --> 00:24:53,389
- That's right. We want federal counsel.
- No. I'm not trading with you, Alex.
306
00:24:53,556 --> 00:24:58,352
You're gonna do your demonstration,
then I help you. That's the deal. That's it.
307
00:25:02,565 --> 00:25:05,234
- I wanna talk to you in private.
- What are you doing?
308
00:25:05,401 --> 00:25:08,154
- I handled everything.
- What are you afraid of?
309
00:25:08,321 --> 00:25:11,574
I'm the one who can make this happen.
I wanna talk to him alone.
310
00:25:11,741 --> 00:25:15,620
OK, all right, whatever you want.
I'll be over here.
311
00:25:26,297 --> 00:25:28,799
- What's going on?
- Is she trying to screw me?
312
00:25:31,469 --> 00:25:36,224
- No. She's trying to help you.
- Why? I mean, she doesn't even know me.
313
00:25:36,807 --> 00:25:40,436
Maybe because she thinks
you got tricked into doing something
314
00:25:40,603 --> 00:25:42,355
you didn't fully understand.
315
00:25:42,521 --> 00:25:46,692
She wants to use her influence
with the president to try and help you.
316
00:25:46,859 --> 00:25:50,154
- Because she thinks I'm innocent?
- Yeah, maybe.
317
00:25:51,322 --> 00:25:53,991
And I think she likes me.
318
00:25:56,994 --> 00:25:59,664
I think she does.
319
00:26:27,024 --> 00:26:30,653
- Do you need any help?
- No, it should only be one suitcase.
320
00:26:33,781 --> 00:26:37,785
- Take your time. I'll be waiting in the car.
- Thanks.
321
00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:15,614
He just reassigned you?
He didn't give any explanation?
322
00:27:15,781 --> 00:27:20,369
Chappelle doesn't want me in the job. He's
got his own people, and I'm not one of them.
323
00:27:20,536 --> 00:27:22,580
What are you going to do?
324
00:27:25,082 --> 00:27:27,585
Tony, it's Satcom.
325
00:27:30,421 --> 00:27:32,715
- Almeida.
- This is David Palmer.
326
00:27:32,882 --> 00:27:35,384
Mr President, what can I do for you, sir?
327
00:27:35,551 --> 00:27:38,137
I need to speak to Bauer.
Can you reach him?
328
00:27:38,304 --> 00:27:41,724
- Can you hold on, sir?
- For a moment.
329
00:27:51,108 --> 00:27:52,818
Jack, it's Tony.
330
00:27:52,985 --> 00:27:56,572
- I have President Palmer on the line.
- OK, good. Patch him through.
331
00:27:56,739 --> 00:27:58,324
How we doing on the chopper?
332
00:27:58,491 --> 00:28:00,326
- Working on it.
- Work faster.
333
00:28:00,493 --> 00:28:05,247
Here's the president. Mr President,
I have Jack on the line. Jack, go ahead.
334
00:28:05,414 --> 00:28:06,999
Yes, Mr President.
335
00:28:07,166 --> 00:28:09,919
I don't know if you've heard,
but I've been unseated.
336
00:28:10,086 --> 00:28:11,337
Yes, I have. I'm sorry.
337
00:28:11,504 --> 00:28:13,839
Where are you on your investigation?
338
00:28:14,006 --> 00:28:16,842
I can tell you the Cyprus audio
has been forged.
339
00:28:17,009 --> 00:28:20,096
I have the man who engineered it.
I'm bringing him in soon.
340
00:28:20,262 --> 00:28:23,516
We'll patch him through to the
White House, so he can testify.
341
00:28:23,682 --> 00:28:27,353
Meanwhile, CTU is trying to process
everything they can on him.
342
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:31,023
Mr President, there is something else though.
343
00:28:31,190 --> 00:28:32,942
What?
344
00:28:33,109 --> 00:28:36,278
Your ex-wife, sir. Sherry, she's here with me.
345
00:28:36,445 --> 00:28:38,823
How did that happen?
346
00:28:40,324 --> 00:28:43,661
- Jack?
- Yes, sir.
347
00:28:44,662 --> 00:28:46,831
- You can't talk?
- No, sir.
348
00:28:48,457 --> 00:28:50,793
Don't trust her, Jack. Do you understand?
349
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:53,462
Yes, Mr President.
350
00:28:53,629 --> 00:28:56,590
- Let me talk to her.
- He wants to talk with you.
351
00:29:03,514 --> 00:29:05,391
- David?
- What are you trying to do?
352
00:29:05,558 --> 00:29:08,477
- I'm just trying to help you.
- How can you help me?
353
00:29:08,644 --> 00:29:10,896
You shouldn't have lied to me.
354
00:29:11,063 --> 00:29:14,817
That's the problem, David.
It's not always about the truth.
355
00:29:14,984 --> 00:29:16,735
And what's that supposed to mean?
356
00:29:16,902 --> 00:29:22,074
The truth is, the Cyprus recording was forged.
You are right and they are wrong.
357
00:29:22,241 --> 00:29:25,494
The truth is, you're trying
to prevent an unnecessary war,
358
00:29:25,661 --> 00:29:29,206
and Jack Bauer and I are
the only ones who can help you.
359
00:29:29,874 --> 00:29:34,420
- Stay out of his way, Sherry.
- All right. All right, David.
360
00:29:34,587 --> 00:29:36,797
Let me talk to Jack.
361
00:29:41,385 --> 00:29:45,097
- Yes, Mr President?
- I need this man to come forward now.
362
00:29:45,264 --> 00:29:48,726
- I understand, sir.
- All right. Thank you.
363
00:29:49,894 --> 00:29:51,770
- Tony, you still there?
- I'm here.
364
00:29:51,937 --> 00:29:54,356
- How much time have we got?
- Six minutes.
365
00:29:54,523 --> 00:29:56,525
- Tony, can you hear me?
- Go ahead.
366
00:29:56,692 --> 00:29:59,528
- We need that chopper now.
- You'll have it.
367
00:29:59,695 --> 00:30:01,071
Thank you.
368
00:30:08,245 --> 00:30:10,414
I'm gonna need your help.
369
00:30:21,509 --> 00:30:24,094
I'm still here at the Matheson house.
370
00:30:37,525 --> 00:30:40,069
- Where is it, sir?
- Where is what?
371
00:30:41,445 --> 00:30:45,074
Please, David, don't make me do this.
372
00:30:45,950 --> 00:30:48,118
Give me the phone.
373
00:31:07,137 --> 00:31:11,183
- Place Pierce under arrest.
- Mike, don't.
374
00:31:11,350 --> 00:31:16,689
- I coerced him into getting it for me.
- You didn't coerce anyone.
375
00:31:16,855 --> 00:31:20,776
Shame on you,
for placing us both in this position.
376
00:31:20,943 --> 00:31:24,697
It should be you putting yourself
on the line. Instead, Aaron did.
377
00:31:24,863 --> 00:31:29,368
- I tried to be a friend to you, sir.
- I don't want a friend!
378
00:31:29,535 --> 00:31:32,580
I need someone to do the right thing.
379
00:31:36,166 --> 00:31:39,211
I'm sorry, Aaron.
380
00:31:39,378 --> 00:31:42,965
There's nothing to be sorry for, Mr President.
381
00:33:02,878 --> 00:33:05,089
Officer, is that you?
382
00:33:19,269 --> 00:33:21,397
Hello?
383
00:33:31,532 --> 00:33:34,410
- You ready?
- Yeah.
384
00:33:34,576 --> 00:33:37,246
All right, let's go.
385
00:33:46,130 --> 00:33:48,257
Rudin needs you. He's in Holding 2.
386
00:33:48,424 --> 00:33:52,428
- Tell him to call me.
- The comm's out in that room.
387
00:33:52,594 --> 00:33:55,472
All right, I'm on my way.
388
00:34:21,832 --> 00:34:23,917
Where's Rudin?
389
00:34:33,969 --> 00:34:37,514
I got this.
Go send that chopper to pick up Jack.
390
00:34:59,036 --> 00:35:01,705
- When are your people getting here?
- Soon.
391
00:35:04,208 --> 00:35:09,588
It's not just out of my own selfish desire
that I'm trying to stay clean on all this.
392
00:35:09,755 --> 00:35:10,923
Really?
393
00:35:11,089 --> 00:35:15,844
It wouldn't be good for David's presidency
if his ex-wife was implicated in this bomb.
394
00:35:16,011 --> 00:35:18,847
So, now you care about his presidency?
395
00:35:20,390 --> 00:35:25,229
In light of what's happened today,
my resentments seem obscenely petty.
396
00:35:27,481 --> 00:35:31,109
I don't know what I was thinking.
397
00:35:31,276 --> 00:35:34,696
There's something I haven't
told you yet about Mr Palmer.
398
00:35:35,405 --> 00:35:37,741
- Mr Palmer?
- Yes, Mr Palmer.
399
00:35:39,159 --> 00:35:42,454
His cabinet invoked the 25th Amendment
less than an hour ago.
400
00:35:42,621 --> 00:35:45,123
- What?
- Prescott's president now.
401
00:35:45,290 --> 00:35:48,085
Oh, my God.
402
00:35:48,919 --> 00:35:51,129
You got what you wanted.
403
00:35:51,296 --> 00:35:54,716
It's Tony. The chopper's about
to leave. ETA's about 20 minutes.
404
00:35:54,883 --> 00:35:57,970
- So, Chappelle's on board with us?
- Not exactly.
405
00:35:58,136 --> 00:36:00,722
- What do you mean?
- It's better if you don't know.
406
00:36:00,889 --> 00:36:03,642
You'll have to get
the Attorney General involved.
407
00:36:03,809 --> 00:36:06,478
- What for?
- Mrs Palmer wants to cut a deal.
408
00:36:06,645 --> 00:36:09,147
- A deal?
- Hewitt's testimony incriminates her.
409
00:36:09,314 --> 00:36:12,484
- I'll make sure it's in place.
- It has to go like clockwork.
410
00:36:12,651 --> 00:36:15,696
- There's no margin for error.
- I know.
411
00:36:19,449 --> 00:36:21,827
What did you mean, "I want to cut a deal"?
412
00:36:21,994 --> 00:36:25,664
I explained to you that Alex won't say
anything without my permission.
413
00:36:25,831 --> 00:36:30,002
All I care about now is that
he convinces Prescott and the Joint Chiefs
414
00:36:30,168 --> 00:36:32,004
that he forged the Cyprus audio.
415
00:36:32,170 --> 00:36:36,508
- After that, you're free to try and cut a deal.
- That is not what we discussed.
416
00:36:36,675 --> 00:36:39,595
- I'm sorry, that's the way it is.
- We'll see about that.
417
00:36:39,761 --> 00:36:43,265
Mrs Palmer, the conversations end here.
418
00:36:43,432 --> 00:36:47,102
You don't talk to him again,
do you understand me?
419
00:36:47,978 --> 00:36:50,230
Don't try me, Mrs Palmer.
420
00:36:52,149 --> 00:36:54,985
Take a seat on the couch.
421
00:37:50,791 --> 00:37:52,876
Kim?
422
00:37:56,797 --> 00:37:59,383
You know this is all your fault, don't ya?
423
00:38:02,886 --> 00:38:07,683
Carla would probably still be alive
if it wasn't for you. Probably.
424
00:38:15,232 --> 00:38:18,318
You think I wanted to hurt her? I didn't.
425
00:38:19,695 --> 00:38:21,738
I loved her.
426
00:39:15,125 --> 00:39:18,587
- CTU. Dessler.
- This is Kim. I need to speak to my father.
427
00:39:18,754 --> 00:39:22,758
- Kim, your Dad's not here right now.
- Please find him. It's an emergency.
428
00:39:22,924 --> 00:39:25,093
All right, hold on.
429
00:39:35,479 --> 00:39:37,939
It's Michelle. Your daughter's on the line.
430
00:39:38,106 --> 00:39:40,317
OK, fine. Put her through.
431
00:39:41,985 --> 00:39:43,779
- OK, Kim, go ahead.
- Dad.
432
00:39:43,945 --> 00:39:47,449
- Sweetheart, what's wrong?
- I'm at the Mathesons' house.
433
00:39:47,616 --> 00:39:50,535
Gary was here. He has a gun.
434
00:39:50,702 --> 00:39:54,289
- He killed the officer that brought me here.
- Where is he now?
435
00:39:54,456 --> 00:39:56,875
He's passed out. I knocked him out.
436
00:39:57,042 --> 00:39:59,711
- OK, get out of the house.
- What if I killed him?
437
00:39:59,878 --> 00:40:02,464
It doesn't matter.
Just get out of the house now.
438
00:40:02,631 --> 00:40:04,883
OK.
439
00:40:05,050 --> 00:40:07,219
Oh, God! No!
440
00:40:07,385 --> 00:40:09,554
- Kim, what's going on?
- He's moving.
441
00:40:09,721 --> 00:40:12,599
- Grab his gun.
- I've got it.
442
00:40:17,521 --> 00:40:19,231
- Shoot him.
- What?
443
00:40:19,397 --> 00:40:21,399
- Shoot him.
- I can't.
444
00:40:21,566 --> 00:40:24,986
I want you to point the gun at his chest
and pull the trigger.
445
00:40:25,153 --> 00:40:27,823
No, I can't.
446
00:40:27,989 --> 00:40:29,616
Kim, shoot him now!
447
00:40:31,159 --> 00:40:34,704
Kim. You little bitch.
448
00:40:42,337 --> 00:40:44,381
- Kim, can you hear me?
- Dad!
449
00:40:45,215 --> 00:40:48,552
- Did you do it?
- Yeah.
450
00:40:51,388 --> 00:40:54,724
Again. I want you to shoot him again.
451
00:40:59,729 --> 00:41:02,232
Shoot him again now, Kim.
452
00:41:03,525 --> 00:41:05,861
Shoot him again now!
453
00:41:34,014 --> 00:41:36,474
- Dad?
- Is he dead?
454
00:41:36,641 --> 00:41:39,394
- Yeah.
- OK, sweetheart, listen to me.
455
00:41:40,061 --> 00:41:44,316
I'll send someone to pick you up now.
Go downstairs and wait. Can you do that?
456
00:41:44,482 --> 00:41:47,861
- Yeah.
- OK, baby, hurry.
457
00:41:55,911 --> 00:41:58,330
- Where you going?
- I don't trust you anymore.
458
00:41:58,496 --> 00:42:02,334
Everyone is looking to hunt you down:
Kingsley, the government.
459
00:42:02,500 --> 00:42:05,420
We can help you.
Without us, you don't stand a chance.
460
00:42:10,383 --> 00:42:12,761
- Hello?
- Kate, it's Jack Bauer.
461
00:42:12,928 --> 00:42:15,597
- Is everything all right?
- No. I need your help.
462
00:42:15,764 --> 00:42:18,516
My daughter was in a shooting,
I think she's in shock.
463
00:42:18,683 --> 00:42:21,436
Take the police officer
that I left behind with you,
464
00:42:21,603 --> 00:42:24,022
and go and pick her up
and take her over to CTU.
465
00:42:24,189 --> 00:42:28,443
- I'm sorry, Jack, I sent the officer home.
- Son of a bitch.
466
00:42:28,610 --> 00:42:32,697
- I don't know what else to do.
- I could do it. Go pick up Kim.
467
00:42:32,864 --> 00:42:34,199
- Can you?
- Yeah.
468
00:42:34,366 --> 00:42:38,370
Please call the police and tell them
to meet you at 12, Bluetree Drive.
469
00:42:38,536 --> 00:42:40,538
OK, do you know where it is?
470
00:42:40,705 --> 00:42:42,707
- Yeah.
- OK. I'll call CTU now.
471
00:42:42,874 --> 00:42:45,835
- OK, I'll leave right away.
- Please, Kate, hurry.
472
00:42:48,088 --> 00:42:49,881
- Get out of my way.
- No.
473
00:42:50,048 --> 00:42:53,468
Alex, get back to work!
Sherry, stay away from him!
474
00:42:54,010 --> 00:42:56,972
I need to speak to Tony Almeida
and Michelle Dessler.
475
00:42:57,138 --> 00:43:00,642
- Is it an emergency?
- Yes, it's an emergency.
476
00:43:00,809 --> 00:43:02,936
Alex, you...
477
00:43:13,863 --> 00:43:16,533
Help me.
