24 S05E06 Day 5 12_00 PM - 1_00 PM (VO+STFR&EN)
Any problems getting the canisters out?
No. They were hidden exactly where you said they'd be.
Russians will finally understand the consequences
of occupying our homeland when we turn Moscow into a graveyard.
Erwich has just cleared airport security.
Then the authorities don't know anything's been stolen.
Not yet.
Then the only thing we have left to take care of is Bauer.
You paged me?
I need you to do something.
We have our hands full searching for the nerve gas.
Bauer is a priority.
I just signed a treaty.
Now all of a sudden I find out that the terrorists
are still out there... with nerve gas.
You people have to listen to me.
I had a document...
it was hidden in my blouse.
It's gone. Someone stole it from me.
This is what she was like before you sent her to Vermont.
- Are you suggesting that I readmit her? - For her sake, if nothing else.
Aaron, my wife is gone.
We have a priority alert.
You've been burrowing into classified CTU protocols without authorization.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Stop. I know you logged on to the security subsystem
where you had no right to be.
Someone knew that Jack was alive.
It's critical to our investigation that we find out who that was.
Did you let that man into CTU?
This man is a professional assassin.
He just killed Dr. Paulson, he tried to kill me.
Who told you to let that man into CTU?
The White House,
Mr. Cummings.
I don't understand the problem.
David Palmer was murdered because he was about
to expose Walt Cummings' connection to the terrorists.
When Cummings couldn't pin Palmer's murder on me
he tried to kill me.
All that may be true, Jack, but we don't have proof.
We can prove that Cummings used Spenser to get Jack's assassin into CTU.
All we have is Spenser's word. That's not enough to build a case.
You don't have time to build a case.
You want the nerve gas, Cummings is your connection.
Cummings is the President's Chief Advisor.
How exactly do you suggest we get to him?
I can secretly meet with Mike Novick, enlist his help.
How do we know Novick's not in this with Cummings?
Because I know him. He'll listen to me.
And the President will listen to him.
With Novick's help, we can isolate Cummings.
Jack, as much as I appreciate you wanting to be involved,
you don't work here anymore.
That's exactly the reason why I should do this.
If it backfires, there'll be no fallout on you.
- I think it's worth a try. - I agree.
It's your call.
All right, Jack.
But just so we're clear,
this is about finding the nerve gas,
not getting revenge for David Palmer.
Understood.
Work out your protocols with Ms. Raines.
We'll keep looking through Cummings' background
for anything that supports our case.
We're gonna need to set up a secure channel
for you to contact us on.
Can you bring up the satellite photo of the compound?
Jack, I'm sorry if I'm being a little distant.
I just...
It's taking me a little while to get used to you being alive.
I understand.
- I'll call Novick. - Fine.
Jack.
When Cummings finds out that you're still alive,
he's gonna come after you again.
Yeah.
- Yes? - Is Bauer dead?
I haven't received confirmation yet.
Your man should have taken care of this by now.
Perhaps he had to alter his strike window.
Has the nerve gas reached the port?
Not yet.
But they should be arriving any minute.
Good. I have to go.
I'm late for a briefing.
You have all the shipping documents in order?
The canisters will arrive at port in your country in 8 days.
Ground transportation to your base camp will take another day.
Will you need my help getting them to your target?
No. I've arranged transport to Moscow.
Have they found my wife yet?
No, Sir, but Secret Service is confident
she's still on the grounds.
If they're so damn confident, why can't they find her?!
What the hell are they doing?!
I'm sure it's just a matter of time, Mr. President.
Sorry I'm late.
I was just setting up the video.
This was made by terrorists,
to document the effects of exposure to nerve gas.
It was recovered from a training camp 2 years ago.
Disorientation occurs moments after exposure.
Now the video jumps forward,
no more than a couple of minutes, we estimate.
Within that time,
there's permanent damage to the central nervous system.
Violent seizures take over.
Bronchial membranes blister and peel away.
Death occurs within...
Stop.
Now, according to DOD,
the "Sentox-Six" nerve gas stolen from the airport
is far more lethal than the gas we just saw used.
If released in a town or city, for example,
the cloud will remain lethal for much longer.
It's Jack Bauer. Call me on a secure line.
Are we any closer to finding the canisters?
There haven't been any reports of progress, Sir.
Tell no one.
Excuse me, Mr. President.
I need to return a call to the State Department.
Do you have those updates, Walt?
Yes, here's one from CTU.
Also one from Homeland Security.
- This is Bauer. - Jack. Mike Novick.
It's good to hear your voice.
Yours too, Mike.
I'm so sorry about David Palmer.
I know how much he meant to you.
Yeah... What's going on?
I have a lead on the stolen nerve gas.
Isn't CTU coordinating the search?
This is something I need to bring directly to you.
I don't understand.
I can't talk about it on the phone, Mike.
We need to meet.
No one can know about this, not even the President.
I'm not comfortable with all this secrecy, Jack.
You need to give me some idea what this is about.
It concerns Walt Cummings.
There's an area a few hundred yards outside the southwest gate.
It's at the far side of the property from the main house.
Thanks, Mike. I'll see you in 15 minutes.
Jack...
Hey.
They said we can leave soon.
I know, I heard.
What about you?
Are you coming home with us?
No, I need to stay here, CTU still needs my help.
Derek, I'd like to speak with your mom for a moment, is that all right?
Yeah, of course.
Take him downstairs.
She'll be there soon.
You're not coming back to us, are you?
No.
I never thought I was going to be back here at CTU.
I would never have gotten you involved in all of this, I promise you.
It's the woman who interviewed me, isn't it? Audrey Raines.
You were involved with her.
I could tell by the way you looked at each other.
I was with her before I had to disappear.
Are you still in love with her?
Y es.
Does she still love you?
I don't know.
Mr. Bauer.
Your transportation's standing by.
I'll be right there.
- I'm sorry, I have to go. - Yeah.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Thank you.
I'm not comfortable with all this secrecy, Jack.
You need to give me some idea what this is about.
It concerns Walt Cummings.
There's an area, a few hundred yards outside the southwest gate.
It's at the far side of the property from the main house.
- Your man didn't do his job. - Don't put that on me, Nathanson.
You were supposed to have Bauer killed hours ago.
I'm not going to warn you again.
Pull yourself together.
You've heard the call, didn't you?
Bauer's coming here to expose my role in all this.
You're assuming he knows its extent.
Well, it's obvious he knows enough.
Now what the hell am I supposed to do?
At this point, there's only one thing you can do.
Mrs. Logan,
please come out of there.
Mrs. Logan...
Aaron...
don't let them take me.
You've got to listen to me.
They're just trying to help you.
No. No.
They're trying to set me up.
They want it to look like I had a breakdown,
so they can cart me off to some psychiatric hospital.
- Ma'am... - Aaron...
It's someone in my husband's administration.
They're trying to shut me up because I know the truth.
What truth?
David Palmer.
I know...
Don't let him take me, Aaron. Please?
We have our orders, Mrs. Logan.
I'm sorry.
Aaron... please...
Aaron...
Audrey, did you check with the airports?
Yes. They've all been alerted on the missing canisters.
- And CHP? - Same thing.
Trucks are being checked at all major interstates.
See that they don't mention the Sentox nerve gas.
The White House is clear.
Yes, I know. The bulletin only describes the missing canisters.
No mention of chemical weapons.
Good. The last thing we need is for the public to find out
that nerve gas is out there.
Unlock code verified.
Schaeffer...
...what were you doing in there?
Making sure the canisters were secured properly.
Don't want them knocking around when this gets loaded onto a ship.
My men secured the canisters according to my instructions.
You don't need to be concerned.
All right.
Here are the customs' documents you need when the shipment arrives,
along with the remote trigger and the arming codes.
I'll take the rest of my payment now.
Our arrangement was you'll get your final instalment
when the ship left port.
It's not gonna be a problem.
They're loading out in less than an hour.
Then you won't have long to wait.
Fine.
I'll be right there.
Ms. Raines?
Yes.
We've been released.
Oh, good.
- Can I ask you something? - Of course.
Do you still have feelings for Jack?
I'm sorry, but that's personal.
I know, but he's been living with my son and me for the last 6 months.
We started to become a family...
...and I care about him.
Do you know he still loves you?
If you don't love him, let him go.
Bauer.
Jack, it's Audrey.
What's going on?
Jack...
What?
Audrey, what?
When this is over, are you coming back?
I don't know.
Are you going back to Diane?
No...
I... I don't know what I'm doing yet.
I haven't had any time to think about it.
Is it true what she said?
What'd she say?
That you still love me.
I never stopped loving you...
not for one second.
Then don't go away again, Jack, please.
It's more complicated than that.
I know.
It's time.
I gotta go.
Jack...
I have to go.
Yeah, I know, I know. Okay. Bye.
No, no! Keep me out of this!
The last thing I wanna do is comment to the press
about the roadblocks coming up.
And we can't have any leaks about the nerve gas.
It would just cause a panic.
Come in.
Pardon me, sir, we found Mrs. Logan.
Is she all right?
She is fine, sir. She was hiding in the stables.
Stables? What the hell did she think she was doing?
Mr. President...
I feel awkward mentioning this, but...
Mrs. Logan said some things...
About David Palmer.
Yes, sir.
I've heard her conspiracy theories, Aaron.
I've heard them all.
But thank you for your concern, Aaron.
They found my wife.
Good.
Mr. President... we need to talk.
What is it, Walt?
I was hoping to spare you from this but...
I'm afraid Jack Bauer is forcing my hand.
He's on his way here to meet with Mike Novick.
Bauer? Why?
He's going to accuse me of helping the terrorists
acquire the nerve gas.
That's ridiculous.
No, sir.
It's... it's the truth.
What did you say?
Through a proxy, I leaked information to the terrorists
about where the nerve gas was hidden.
You have to understand, sir,
this gas was never gonna pose a threat to American lives.
Never pose a threat?!
People died in the airport!
Hostages were killed!
We had hoped to limit the collateral damage.
"Collateral damage"?! What are you thinking?
This is an unspeakable crime.
Walt...
you have to answer for this.
Mr. President...
it's in your best interest to hear me out
before you make that phone call.
What do you mean "my best interest"?
The Sentox gas is being smuggled out of the country by separatists
who think they're gonna use it against the Russians.
However, that nerve gas will never reach Russian soil.
And you know this how?
We control the remote detonators on those gas canisters.
As soon as they've reached the terrorists' base,
we'll trigger the canisters by satellite
and release the gas.
So everything that happened today was just to kill some terrorists?
No, the goal is to produce a smoking gun,
proof of the existence of weapons of mass destruction in Central Asia.
This is unbelievable.
It's necessary.
It will finally give us a pretext
to increase our military presence in the region,
guaranteeing the flow of oil for the next generation.
How dare you?!
How dare you act without my consent?
How dare you put this administration, this entire country in jeopardy?
You're a traitor.
No, no, Mr. President, I am a patriot!
Doing what needs to be done for the continued safety
and well-being of this nation!
My God...
You gave the order to have David Palmer killed?
That was an unfortunate but necessary intervention.
He found out too much and we had...
Walt!
You're rationalizing murder, the murder of a president.
You're going to contact these people
and recover the nerve gas before it leaves the country.
- I'm afraid I can't do that. - Why not?
I don't know where the nerve gas is.
And the man I have working inside has gone dark, he's... unreachable.
Now, you'll let things play out as they are...
otherwise, your administration will be implicated
and your presidency will be destroyed.
It's your choice, Mr. President.
Jack.
Thanks for seeing me like this, Mike.
What is it?
Did you tell anyone we were meeting?
Of course not.
Son of a bitch!
Who did you tell?
Who did you tell?!
I didn't tell anybody, Jack!
Jack Bauer, stay right where you are!
Put down your weapons!
What's the meaning of this?!
Tell your men to stand down!
I'm sorry, sir, we can't do that.
He's here at my request!
We have orders to use force if necessary.
Orders? From who?
The President of the United States.
Get on your knees.
That is affirmative, sir.
Mr. Bauer was apprehended with no resistance on his part,
we're transporting him back to the retreat now.
Thanks.
Novick and Bauer have been taken into custody.
So we're just gonna lock Mike Novick up?
For the time being.
But what for?
Eventually, he's gonna get out,
and he's gonna talk to the press.
What can he say?
He doesn't know anything.
I thought you told me he talked to Jack Bauer.
We stopped Bauer before he could give Mike any details.
What's he gonna think?!
We're detaining him!
Bauer was about to divulge national security secrets
that Mike's not authorized to hear.
That's why Mike's being detained.
And what about Bauer?
He must have talked to other people at CTU
and told them what he knows.
As soon as this nerve gas leaves U.S. soil,
it's gonna be very difficult to prove that either of us
is connected to this in any way.
And you're sure that these... these detonators will work,
that the Sentox gas will be released
before it can be used against the Russians?
Yes.
Right now, all you need to do is authorize me
to terminate CTU's involvement in this matter.
We'll tell them we've got the situation under control,
and that we'll deal with Bauer,
who, after all, is not officially affiliated with them any longer.
All right.
Good.
Yes?
Mr. President, I have Mrs. Logan for you.
Not now.
Yes, sir.
Dunley.
What is Jack Bauer doing here,
why is he under arrest,
and why wasn't I told?
Orders of the President.
Directly?
No.
It came through Walt Cummings' office.
Okay.
Thank you.
We're no longer running point on the search for the canisters.
We've been ordered off by Division.
Why?
The White House wants their own people to coordinate from now on.
That does not make sense,
we'll waste hours getting another agency up to speed
Yeah, I tried to call the President. He's not taking my calls.
What about Mike Novick?
Jack should be with him now.
Novick people say he's unreachable,
and Jack's cell goes straight to voice-mail.
Something's wrong.
Yeah, I know,
but I don't know what we can do about it.
I do.
What?
We can disregard the order.
We're not disregarding a presidential order.
If we don't, we will not find this nerve gas.
Sending Jack Bauer to have a conversation with Mike Novick
as a private citizen is one thing,
but I'm not about to start considering
disobeying a direct order from the White House.
That's because you don't have the experience to know any better.
Mr. Buchanan,
will you step outside for a moment?
I can't have you talk to me like that in front of this people.
You're right. I'm sorry.
Are we clear about who's in charge here?
Yeah, but my advice stands.
If this order jeopardizes our chances of finding that nerve gas,
it's your responsibility to ignore it.
At least until we can make our case to the White House.
You also need to learn to make decisions faster.
Bill...
One more thing that comes with experience.
Lynn,
if we don't do everything in our power to stop these terrorists,
we're not doing our job.
Okay, disregard the order.
Thank you.
Is there anything else you'd like me to pack for you?
Maybe a few of your... nicer dresses?
I'm being confined to a psychiatric ward, Evelyn.
I don't think there are gonna be any black-tie events.
Sorry.
How'd this happen?
What's that, Mrs. Logan?
Charles and me.
I was his confidant.
All those years in Congress, my...
opinion was the one that mattered most to him.
And now I'm...
...less than an afterthought.
I'm sure the President would be here if he could.
He's the President of the United States, Evelyn.
He can do whatever he wants.
If he wanted to be here, he would be.
Mr. Bauer, you're being moved per the President's orders.
Where?
To a class three 3 detention facility.
On what charges?
I was invited here by Mike Novick.
Those are my orders, sir.
You're Pierce, right?
Aaron Pierce.
You served under David Palmer.
Yes, I did.
I need to speak to you just for a moment, please.
That's not possible.
It concerns David Palmer's killer.
All right.
David Palmer was assassinated
because he was on the verge of discovering that the terrorists
that attacked us today were being helped
by someone within Logan's administration.
Who?
Walt Cummings.
Why would Mr. Cummings be involved with terrorists?
I couldn't tell you.
But I can tell you that the terrorists are now in possession
of a weaponized nerve gas,
and Walt Cummings may be the last chance we have
to stop them in time.
Walt Cummings ordered the assassination of David Palmer.
I know that's hard to believe,
but I can prove it, it's true.
Actually, it's not that hard to believe.
The First Lady also thinks someone in the administration was involved.
Your primary responsibility as lead agent
is to protect the President of the United States.
Someone in his administration is undermining his authority.
That is equivalent to a coup d'État.
Agent Pierce, please...
Please, I need your help.
Bauer's escaped.
When?
I didn't get a code alert.
My comm's down.
Call it in, have agents cover the west gate,
- That's where he was headed. - What about you?
I'll take your post.
Go.
Yes, sir.
That was NSA.
CTU hasn't transferred the search operation
in their jurisdiction yet.
What's the problem?
I don't know.
But you need to call Lynn McGill,
make sure we're in charge.
I've been avoiding his calls
because he's just gonna ask me why I'm pulling CTU off the search operation
and I don't know what to tell him!
You don't have to tell him anything.
You're the President.
Agent Pierce,
we're in the middle of a meeting, if you don't mind.
Mr. President,
my name is Jack Bauer,
and I'm sorry to have to confront you like this
but your chief of staff is withholding information
that is vital to this nation's security.
Stop this!
I'm the President of the United States,
get your hands off this man!
Agent Pierce, do something!
I am, Mr. President.
I'm upholding my oath to protect you.
That won't have any effect, sir.
I've overridden the distress line.
Mr. Cummings is guilty of conspiring with terrorists.
He facilitated the theft of a military-grade nerve gas,
and today is responsible for the death of at least 3 people,
including David Palmer.
I know about that,
but there's an explanation.
What do you mean, you know about that?
Mr. Bauer, please, I just found out a couple of minutes ago.
It's very complicated.
I don't know what this man has told you,
but we must find that nerve gas now,
and I mean immediately,
before it is too late.
It's already too late.
What do you mean?
Apparently, it's on its way out of the country.
Where is it?!
He told me he doesn't know!
He's lying to you, sir!
The man I have inside has gone dark,
I don't know.
I'm done talking with you, you understand me?
Now you read my file.
First thing I'll do,
I'll take out your right eye,
then I'll move over and I'll get your left.
And then I'll cut you.
I'm going to keep cutting you
until I get the information that I need, you understand me?
So for the last time, where is the nerve gas?
I don't know.
Stop!
Stop! Stop! I'll tell you! I'll tell you!
What the hell!
It's... it's on a freighter leaving the port of Long Beach at 2:30.
How is it concealed?!
In a container carrying medical supplies.
What's the container number?
I don't know.
What's the number?!
I don't know!
I'd tell you, I swear!
Mr. Bauer!
I don't know.
Mr. Buchanan, I've got Jack Bauer on line 3.
Jack, what's going on?
- We've been trying to reach you. - Bill, hold on.
I'm going to put you on speakerphone.
Bill, I'm standing here with the President.
The nerve gas is at Long Beach Harbor in a container full of medical supplies
on a freighter bound for Central Asia.
It's set to depart at 2:30pm.
How solid is the intel, Jack?
It came directly from Cummings.
Mr. President, we've been trying to reach you about an order
we received changing our jurisdiction.
Disregard the order.
Then you want CTU to maintain operational control of the retrieval?
Yes. Absolutely.
I'm alerting CBP.
Get hazmat teams in there to set up a perimeter.
Have medical teams standing by in case the gas is released.
Got it.
Good work, Jack.
Are you heading back to CTU?
I don't know yet.
Jack, we'll let you know when we have more information on the container.
Copy that.
Mr. President, Agent Pierce and I are prepared
to hand ourselves over to the authorities now.
Aaron.
Yes, Mr. President?
Take back your shield and get Walt Cummings out of my sight.
Yes, sir.
He told me it was too late, and I believed him.
You need to understand, I trusted Walt Cummings...
but he lied to me.
I was coerced.
There is... one more thing that we need to discuss.
What is that, Sir?
You.
The fact that you're alive presents problems for both of us.
Yes, Mr. President.
I accomplished what I set out to do,
which was to identify and locate David Palmer's killer.
I would like to stay on until the nerve gas is retrieved.
After that, I give you my word I will simply disappear again.
All right.
I think that would be best for the good of the country.
Yes, sir.
Thank you, Mr. Bauer.
Thank you, Mr. President.
Excuse me.
I'll see you soon.
Kevin, hold up.
What's happening?
-Martha. -Charles...
Come on.
Get out of the car.
Be careful.
What?
You were right. There was a conspiracy.
David was trying to warn you and warn me.
I should have listened to you.
I- I...
You... you... you believe me now?
It was Walt Cummings.
He lied to me.
He convinced me that you were out of control.
Walt?!
Sending you back to the...
the clinic in Vermont was his idea.
And you went along with it.
I'm sorry, Martha.
Sending me away without a word...
like I was...
some nuisance to be gotten rid of.
Excuse me Mr. President,
but you wanted to know when a link with CTU was established?
Yes.
Thank you, Wendy.
See that the First Lady's bags get back to her room.
Of course.
I've got to go.
Chloe, do we have confirmation on the intel Jack gave us?
There's only one ship scheduled to leave the port of Long Beach at 2:30.
It's a freighter heading for Central Asia,
leaving from Pier F.
We don't have any CTU teams in the vicinity,
but we've got a Customs and Border Protection task force
on site under our directive.
All right, make sure that CBP understands the nerve gas is housed
in 20 canisters of gray metal, unmarked.
They're going out in a medical supplies freight.
Yeah, they already know that.
But there's gonna be about
a thousand cargo containers on that ship,
and we don't know which one the nerve gas is in.
It's container 539146, box seven.
I was able to hack into the ship's manifest.
It's the only container stocking medical supplies.
That's great.
Make sure that all of the strike force units have that.
Right.
Lynn, the White House requests a live feed from the assault.
I'll have Chloe patch them in once all the TAC teams
reach the staging area.
All right, got it.
That's .
His name is Ivan Erwich.
He's a chemical engineer trained at the University of St. Petersburg.
Joined his country's separatist movement six years ago.
Do we have any clearer images, any file photos?
No, which is why we need you to I.D. him when the strike force has a visual.
Okay, just make sure the CPB knows that we need to take Erwich alive.
They know. Stand by.
What's the situation?
The strike team is in place, Mr. President.
We're just waiting for the video feed to come up.
Feed's up.
CTU, we've located the target container.
No hostiles present.
You have the green light, Agent Finn.
Remember, do not discharge your weapons unless absolutely necessary.
If a bullet breaches one of those canisters,
we'll have a massive casualty situation.
Copy that.
Masks on.
Go!
Don't move!
Put your hands in the air now!
He's dead.
Open 'em up.
Open 'em up!
Let's go! Open 'em all up!
This one.
Empty. Next.
Moving on, moving on!
Come on, get it open!
- Empty. Next! - Negative!
Come on, move it! Open it, open it!
Next.
Open it, come on, come on!
What do we got? What do we got?!
Nothing?!
There are no gas canisters here, CTU.
Repeat, the nerve gas is not here.
Get Walt Cummings in here now!
Yes, sir.
Damn it!
The nerve gas isn't there.
It has to be.
Where are the canisters?!
I don't know.
I've told you everything.
They have to be there.
God...
What is it?
That's Schaeffer, the man we had inside.
They must've found out we've reprogrammed the detonators.
It's his cell phone, sir.
Who's calling you?
That's Schaeffer's number.
- Bill? - Yes Jack?
I want you to monitor and record this call.
We're on it.
Answer it now.
Yes?
We know you've altered the arming codes, Mr. Cummings.
Who is this?
I think you know my name...
as I now know yours.
Your man Schaeffer confessed everything.
Is President Logan with you?
The President had nothing to do with this...
Nor did anyone else in the government.
I was acting alone.
Do you really expect me to believe that?
It's the truth.
Erwich, listen.
We can negotiate something.
I don't negotiate with my enemies.
I eliminate them.
Your country is about to pay a very steep price.
