He rolled over too easy. - What do you think his play is? 58 00:03:58,010 --> 00:04:01,347 - I don't know yet. - It's your call, Jack. 59 00:04:01,513 --> 00:04:04,183 But you should know what's happening in Washington. 60 00:04:04,350 --> 00:04:07,645 - The president's regained consciousness. - How is he? 61 00:04:07,811 --> 00:04:12,608 Well enough. But Daniels is challenging him under the 25th Amendment, 62 00:04:12,775 --> 00:04:16,946 in large part so he can go ahead with the nuclear strike against Fayed's country. 63 00:04:17,112 --> 00:04:19,615 - Does he have a chance of winning? - It's unclear. 64 00:04:19,782 --> 00:04:24,995 But if Fayed detonates another bomb, no one will be able to stand in Daniels' way. 65 00:04:25,162 --> 00:04:31,085 If there's a challenge for the presidency, the immunity agreement won't be binding. 66 00:04:31,251 --> 00:04:35,381 Bill, you need to understand that I have no intention of honoring this agreement. 67 00:04:35,547 --> 00:04:37,758 Tell the Attorney General, draw up the papers. 68 00:04:37,925 --> 00:04:39,635 I'm calling him right now. 69 00:04:44,431 --> 00:04:48,560 The president should be here momentarily. 70 00:05:04,702 --> 00:05:08,622 - Mr. President. - Mr. President. 71 00:05:13,002 --> 00:05:17,256 Mr. President.

In so doing, they saved his life. 77 00:05:48,162 --> 00:05:52,583 The question now is whether, in the words of the 25th Amendment, 78 00:05:52,750 --> 00:05:58,422 he is unable to discharge the duties and powers of his office. 79 00:05:58,589 --> 00:06:01,884 - Isn't this really a medical question? - Well, to a degree it is. 80 00:06:02,051 --> 00:06:05,429 But the 25th Amendment puts the final decision 81 00:06:05,596 --> 00:06:09,641 - squarely in the hands of the cabinet. - May we hear medical testimony? 82 00:06:09,808 --> 00:06:13,562 Yes. Let me bring in the surgeon in charge of the president's case. 83 00:06:13,729 --> 00:06:16,523 Dr. Welton, if you would, please. 84 00:06:22,154 --> 00:06:26,075 The president has undergone an ordeal, but from a medical point of view, 85 00:06:26,241 --> 00:06:30,370 the greatest danger has passed. His cognitive functions are presenting normally. 86 00:06:30,537 --> 00:06:33,707 I have every expectation that he will make a full recovery. 87 00:06:33,874 --> 00:06:36,919 Might the pressures of the office increase the chance of a relapse? 88 00:06:37,086 --> 00:06:41,673 - It's difficult to say. It's certainly a possibility. - Can you estimate those chances? 89 00:06:41,840 --> 00:06:45,677 - No, I'm afraid I can't. - If you had a vote, Doctor, 90 00:06:45,844 --> 00:06:49,264 - how would you cast it? - This is precisely the question 91 00:06:49,431 --> 00:06:52,810 which the Constitution demands that this cabinet answer. 92 00:06:52,976 --> 00:06:54,937 Thank you very much, Doctor. 93 00:06:55,104 --> 00:06:57,439 Mr. President, I think now would be an appropriate time 94 00:06:57,606 --> 00:07:04,154 - to address the cabinet, if you would, please. - The vice president initiated this process 95 00:07:04,321 --> 00:07:08,033 because I stopped him launching a nuclear strike against the Middle East. 96 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,619 But this vote shouldn't be about policy. 97 00:07:10,786 --> 00:07:13,664 According to the Constitution, you're judging me 98 00:07:13,831 --> 00:07:18,210 to see if I am unable to discharge the duties of my office. 99 00:07:18,377 --> 00:07:21,964 Well, as you can see, and as you were just told by my physician, 100 00:07:22,131 --> 00:07:26,718 I'm in complete possession of my faculties, and so to remove me from this office 101 00:07:26,885 --> 00:07:30,973 would be to betray both your oath and the American people, 102 00:07:31,140 --> 00:07:34,268 who voted me as their president. 103 00:07:39,982 --> 00:07:42,109 Mr. Vice President? 104 00:07:44,653 --> 00:07:48,157 Ladies and gentlemen of the cabinet, the 25th Amendment is purposely vague 105 00:07:48,323 --> 00:07:53,954 on how you're supposed to judge if the president is unable to discharge his duties, 106 00:07:54,121 --> 00:08:00,043 which is why this is very much about the president's policies, and his actions. 107 00:08:00,210 --> 00:08:03,255 Here are the facts: when a second nuclear attack today 108 00:08:03,422 --> 00:08:06,049 spread radiation over one of our major cities, 109 00:08:06,216 --> 00:08:11,013 I decided it was necessary to launch a retaliatory strike, 110 00:08:11,180 --> 00:08:17,686 to show our enemies that if attacked, we would make them share our pain. 111 00:08:17,853 --> 00:08:21,773 Wayne Palmer's first act upon regaining consciousness 112 00:08:21,940 --> 00:08:23,984 was to stop that strike. 113 00:08:25,444 --> 00:08:29,948 To respond to the attack by doing nothing. 114 00:08:30,616 --> 00:08:35,162 In a time of war, the president must be strong enough in body and mind 115 00:08:35,329 --> 00:08:37,247 to defend this country. 116 00:08:37,414 --> 00:08:42,586 And I'm afraid Wayne Palmer's actions are the proof in this matter 117 00:08:42,753 --> 00:08:48,258 that indeed he is unable to discharge his duties. 118 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,727 All right. Time is of the essence, so unless there is an objection, 119 00:08:58,894 --> 00:09:04,900 I would like to recess and then reconvene for your vote in ten minutes. 120 00:09:28,465 --> 00:09:33,887 - Any word on the cabinet vote? - No, they haven't come back yet. 121 00:09:34,846 --> 00:09:40,602 Look, Milo, about what happened today. Let's just put it behind us, OK? 122 00:09:40,769 --> 00:09:45,107 Which part? The suspicion of terrorism, 123 00:09:45,274 --> 00:09:48,193 or the other thing? 124 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,571 - The suspicion. - And the other thing? 125 00:09:51,738 --> 00:09:55,534 Let's not worry about it right now. Let's try and get through the day. 126 00:09:55,701 --> 00:09:57,703 OK. 127 00:10:00,289 --> 00:10:05,919 I'm not gonna forget about the kiss, and I don't think you are either. 128 00:10:07,838 --> 00:10:12,259 - Nadia. - It's Doyle. Don't say my name. Just listen. 129 00:10:12,426 --> 00:10:16,513 I need you to come up to my office. Don't say anything to anybody. Just come. 130 00:10:16,680 --> 00:10:18,098 On my way. 131 00:10:32,070 --> 00:10:34,114 Have a seat. 132 00:10:39,911 --> 00:10:42,956 Look, I know you and I got off to kind of a bad start. 133 00:10:43,457 --> 00:10:46,626 "A bad start"? You assaulted me. 134 00:10:47,294 --> 00:10:52,215 This country is under attack. We had reason to believe there was a mole in this building. 135 00:10:52,382 --> 00:10:55,427 Starting with you wasn't racist. It was common sense. 136 00:10:55,594 --> 00:10:59,473 - So you're not a racist, you're just a sadist. - You don't know me. 137 00:10:59,639 --> 00:11:01,308 I think I do. 138 00:11:03,643 --> 00:11:06,271 - Why did you call me here? - Turns out there was no mole. 139 00:11:06,438 --> 00:11:09,483 The terrorists could hack into our system 'cause someone screwed up 140 00:11:09,649 --> 00:11:12,152 and logged the wrong security parameters. 141 00:11:12,319 --> 00:11:16,198 I'm pretty sure that someone was Milo, and the proof is on his computer. 142 00:11:16,365 --> 00:11:18,784 I need someone to get it without him noticing. 143 00:11:18,950 --> 00:11:20,952 I can't do that. 144 00:11:21,119 --> 00:11:26,792 Why? Is it 'cause you're too busy deciding if you wanna sleep with him? 145 00:11:27,292 --> 00:11:31,129 Listen, if you don't get the evidence for me, I'm gonna call a forensics team 146 00:11:31,296 --> 00:11:34,424 and they'll tear his system apart as the entire floor watches. 147 00:11:34,591 --> 00:11:36,885 And if they find what I think they'll find, 148 00:11:37,052 --> 00:11:40,639 everyone gets to watch Milo hauled out of this building in handcuffs. 149 00:11:40,806 --> 00:11:44,476 I'm sure it wasn't pleasant when it happened to you, but you're gonna stand by 150 00:11:44,643 --> 00:11:49,898 and watch it happen to him? That's your idea of being a friend? 151 00:11:50,065 --> 00:11:52,651 So you want me to betray him for his own good? 152 00:11:52,818 --> 00:11:57,364 I promise you, Milo will be better off if you help me than if you don't. 153 00:11:57,531 --> 00:11:59,241 Your call. 154 00:12:02,911 --> 00:12:05,747 If the cabinet sides with you, what will you do about Daniels? 155 00:12:05,914 --> 00:12:09,584 The Constitution does not allow the president to fire his vice president. 156 00:12:09,751 --> 00:12:13,088 - But you can marginalize him. - She's right. Get him out of the bunker. 157 00:12:13,255 --> 00:12:15,799 I'd love to, but Daniels has way too many supporters, 158 00:12:15,966 --> 00:12:19,261 and I can't afford to alienate any one of them right now. 159 00:12:19,428 --> 00:12:24,766 Besides, I'd rather have him somewhere where I can keep an eye on him. 160 00:12:24,933 --> 00:12:28,019 - Mr. President? The cabinet's reconvening. - Thank you. 161 00:12:28,186 --> 00:12:30,647 All right, let's go. 162 00:12:46,246 --> 00:12:47,747 Please, sit down. 163 00:12:50,834 --> 00:12:56,089 Right. Ladies and gentlemen of the cabinet, let us now begin the vote. 164 00:12:56,256 --> 00:13:01,428 Will those of you who believe that President Palmer is able to discharge his duties 165 00:13:01,595 --> 00:13:04,639 please, at this time, raise your hand? 166 00:13:13,482 --> 00:13:16,610 Do we have any abstentions? 167 00:13:18,904 --> 00:13:21,406 The vote is seven to seven. 168 00:13:23,116 --> 00:13:27,037 Mr. Attorney General, what would be the next step? 169 00:13:27,954 --> 00:13:30,165 Well, there's no need for a next step. 170 00:13:30,332 --> 00:13:35,170 The Amendment requires that the vice president and a majority of the cabinet agree. 171 00:13:35,337 --> 00:13:42,469 There is no majority in the cabinet, it's split evenly. President Palmer remains in office. 172 00:13:46,389 --> 00:13:51,186 It's not that simple. One of the cabinet votes is invalid. 173 00:13:51,353 --> 00:13:55,023 - Sir, which vote is not valid? - National security advisor. 174 00:13:55,190 --> 00:13:57,025 - What do you mean? - She resigned. 175 00:13:57,192 --> 00:13:59,569 - I resumed my duties. - I don't agree. 176 00:14:00,111 --> 00:14:02,447 I've seen no evidence that you've been reinstated. 177 00:14:02,614 --> 00:14:08,036 That is ridiculous. I sat here with you in a cabinet meeting less than one hour ago! 178 00:14:08,203 --> 00:14:10,747 Ms. Hayes, allowing you to sit in on the meeting 179 00:14:10,914 --> 00:14:14,876 isn't equivalent to formally recognizing you as national security advisor! 180 00:14:15,043 --> 00:14:17,546 In fact, I did not and do not so recognize you. 181 00:14:17,712 --> 00:14:21,591 - Oh, my God. - And if Ms. Hayes' vote is invalid, 182 00:14:21,758 --> 00:14:26,388 then the tally's seven to six in favor of invoking the 25th Amendment 183 00:14:26,555 --> 00:14:29,808 and removing President Palmer from power. 184 00:14:32,018 --> 00:14:33,186 I'm sorry, Wayne. 185 00:14:35,188 --> 00:14:40,902 Noah, don't waste your apologies on me, because I won't let you steal the presidency. 186 00:14:41,069 --> 00:14:43,488 - That's not gonna happen. - Then what do you suggest? 187 00:14:43,655 --> 00:14:46,366 - The country has to be governed. - I would suggest, sir, 188 00:14:46,533 --> 00:14:49,327 - that this is properly a matter for the courts. - I concur. 189 00:14:49,494 --> 00:14:54,082 - We don't have time to go to... - Mr. Vice President, if I may. 190 00:14:54,249 --> 00:14:57,586 I agree with Mr. Lennox. This is a legal question. 191 00:14:57,752 --> 00:15:01,172 The Supreme Court was in session this afternoon. We can recall it, 192 00:15:01,339 --> 00:15:05,427 and have them render a decision regarding the validity of the vote. 193 00:15:05,594 --> 00:15:07,637 The matter could be resolved in under an hour. 194 00:15:07,804 --> 00:15:13,393 Thank you, Attorney General Graves. Get the process started and keep us advised. 195 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,521 I think this meeting is concluded. 196 00:15:25,530 --> 00:15:28,617 - Get my affidavit started. - Yeah. 197 00:15:28,783 --> 00:15:30,785 Tom. 198 00:15:35,123 --> 00:15:40,086 You know something? I'm beginning to think you're not on my side. 199 00:15:40,253 --> 00:15:42,839 Sir, I'm on the side of the United States of America, 200 00:15:43,006 --> 00:15:48,428 and if you ever thought otherwise, you're very much mistaken. 201 00:16:02,317 --> 00:16:05,236 Gredenko's attorney approved the immunity agreements. 202 00:16:05,403 --> 00:16:08,782 Yeah, we're just waiting for digital signatures. 203 00:16:08,948 --> 00:16:16,081 All right. I'll inform the Attorney General's office it's on its way. Thank you. 204 00:16:16,247 --> 00:16:17,791 - Milo. - What's up? 205 00:16:17,957 --> 00:16:22,295 I'm having a problem. My station keeps telling me to refresh the system credentials. 206 00:16:22,462 --> 00:16:26,424 It's the hardware codes. You have to reset them. I can take care of it. 207 00:16:26,591 --> 00:16:28,134 Thanks. 208 00:16:29,928 --> 00:16:32,347 - You OK? - Yeah. 209 00:17:05,130 --> 00:17:08,425 You were right. Milo forgot to refresh the security parameters. 210 00:17:08,591 --> 00:17:13,638 The breach was his fault. So when you tell District, they can fire and maybe arrest him. 211 00:17:13,805 --> 00:17:18,476 Which is why I'm going to alter the log so they'll never know. 212 00:17:18,643 --> 00:17:24,107 This should work, as long as they haven't changed the password. 213 00:17:28,027 --> 00:17:30,155 There. It's done. 214 00:17:31,406 --> 00:17:34,993 - Why did you do that? - All I care about is finding those nukes. 215 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:42,083 We have a better chance of doing that with Milo on board, whether he likes me or not. 216 00:17:42,250 --> 00:17:45,837 "And mankind is naught but a single nation." 217 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:50,592 - You've read the Koran? - And the Bible. And the Upanishads. 218 00:17:50,759 --> 00:17:53,553 Anything I can get my hands on. 219 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:59,350 You're lucky, you've found your answers. I'm looking for mine. 220 00:17:59,517 --> 00:18:02,562 I'd better get ready to deploy. 221 00:18:28,963 --> 00:18:34,469 - What did Doyle want? - Nothing. Just reviewing some data sets. 222 00:18:37,055 --> 00:18:40,225 There you go. Your system's back up. 223 00:18:40,850 --> 00:18:42,936 Thanks. 224 00:19:04,624 --> 00:19:06,918 - Buchanan. - Hi, it's me. 225 00:19:07,460 --> 00:19:09,796 - How did the cabinet vote go? - It was a tie, 226 00:19:09,963 --> 00:19:13,049 which in effect means that Palmer is still in office. 227 00:19:13,216 --> 00:19:17,011 - That's good. That's what we wanted. - Daniels is contesting the vote. 228 00:19:17,178 --> 00:19:20,139 - He's saying that mine is invalid. - Based on what? 229 00:19:20,306 --> 00:19:23,935 Based on the fact that I resigned, and I was never officially reinstated. 230 00:19:24,102 --> 00:19:29,524 That's ridiculous. You attended meetings. You had no replacement assigned. 231 00:19:29,691 --> 00:19:33,319 I know, but maybe he's right, Bill. I did hand in my resignation. 232 00:19:33,486 --> 00:19:37,615 Which was rescinded before it was officially accepted. Daniels knows that. 233 00:19:37,782 --> 00:19:41,077 - He's grasping at straws, Karen. - I'm so scared, Bill. 234 00:19:41,244 --> 00:19:44,581 If he wins, this will all be my fault. 235 00:19:44,747 --> 00:19:47,083 Stop, stop. 236 00:19:48,126 --> 00:19:51,713 It's desperate maneuvering on his part, Karen, nothing more. 237 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:55,967 He hasn't got a case. And the Supreme Court will agree. 238 00:19:57,510 --> 00:20:01,055 Well, we're giving our arguments in 15 minutes. 239 00:20:01,222 --> 00:20:05,560 - Call me as soon as the decision is in. - Thank you for being there. 240 00:20:05,727 --> 00:20:09,522 You don't have to thank me. It's my job. 241 00:20:13,026 --> 00:20:15,069 I miss you so much. 242 00:20:15,236 --> 00:20:17,155 I miss you too. 243 00:20:17,322 --> 00:20:19,782 - I'll talk to you soon. - Bye. 244 00:20:35,632 --> 00:20:39,218 Good. My attorney has verified the agreements. 245 00:20:39,761 --> 00:20:43,514 - We're set. Gredenko's ready to make the call. - We're standing by. 246 00:20:43,681 --> 00:20:47,769 Doyle's got a team ready to go as soon as Fayed tells Gredenko where to meet him. 247 00:20:47,936 --> 00:20:51,856 You try and warn Fayed with anything you say, or how you say it, 248 00:20:52,023 --> 00:20:57,695 - and I will kill you right here, right now. - I believe you, Agent Bauer. 249 00:20:57,862 --> 00:20:59,906 Make the call. 250 00:21:09,207 --> 00:21:11,584 - Yes? - It's me. 251 00:21:12,335 --> 00:21:16,464 - Do you have the security protocols? - Yes. Where do you want to meet? 252 00:21:16,631 --> 00:21:20,218 - Are you sure you're not under surveillance? - Of course. 253 00:21:20,385 --> 00:21:24,013 - Do you think I'd be calling you otherwise? - I can't allow another mistake 254 00:21:24,180 --> 00:21:26,599 to disrupt my plans for the remaining two devices. 255 00:21:26,766 --> 00:21:30,770 - Do you want the protocols or not? - Where are you right now? 256 00:21:30,937 --> 00:21:32,438 Culver City. 257 00:21:32,814 --> 00:21:35,274 Meet me at the Santa Monica pier in ten minutes. 258 00:21:36,776 --> 00:21:39,821 - It may take me more time. - I won't wait. 259 00:21:39,988 --> 00:21:42,991 - Where do I find you? - Just be there. 260 00:21:43,157 --> 00:21:45,243 I'll find you. 261 00:21:48,955 --> 00:21:53,042 Give him the phone. Bill, how long will it take Doyle's team to make it to the pier? 262 00:21:53,209 --> 00:21:56,045 - He's about 30 minutes out. - We'll make do with Ryan's team. 263 00:21:56,212 --> 00:21:58,256 Put him in the vehicle. 264 00:22:04,762 --> 00:22:07,098 Instructions from the Supreme Court. 265 00:22:07,265 --> 00:22:10,727 Our arguments have to be submitted in writing in the next ten minutes. 266 00:22:10,893 --> 00:22:14,981 Sandra's working on our brief. How's it coming? 267 00:22:15,148 --> 00:22:17,734 I'm just about finished. 268 00:22:17,900 --> 00:22:22,613 We have a strong case. You resigned, and Daniels was in charge when you returned. 269 00:22:22,780 --> 00:22:26,242 So the legal question is, did he consent to your reinstatement? 270 00:22:26,409 --> 00:22:27,702 Of course he did. 271 00:22:27,869 --> 00:22:31,831 And he made no objections when you returned to the bunker, 272 00:22:31,998 --> 00:22:34,167 and he never questioned your right to be there? 273 00:22:34,333 --> 00:22:36,669 No, he didn't. 274 00:22:36,836 --> 00:22:39,464 His own actions prove our case. 275 00:22:39,630 --> 00:22:43,217 Thank you. For everything, Sandra. 276 00:22:47,638 --> 00:22:53,019 My affidavit explains everything - that I never really intended to reinstate Karen, 277 00:22:53,186 --> 00:22:55,271 letting her perform her duties temporarily, 278 00:22:55,438 --> 00:23:00,568 therefore she had no authority to cast a vote under the 25th Amendment. 279 00:23:00,735 --> 00:23:05,156 Problem is, after she returned, you treated her as if she still were national security advisor. 280 00:23:05,323 --> 00:23:07,784 It's a question of my state of mind, though, isn't it? 281 00:23:07,950 --> 00:23:13,331 Yes. And your state of mind will be inferred from your actions. 282 00:23:14,916 --> 00:23:20,004 Doesn't sound like you think our chances are very good. 283 00:23:20,171 --> 00:23:21,756 I don't. 284 00:23:22,924 --> 00:23:27,345 Then I am deeply afraid for our country. 285 00:23:30,306 --> 00:23:34,519 When the world sees that Wayne Palmer isn't willing to fight back, 286 00:23:34,685 --> 00:23:39,565 our enemies will be encouraged, these recent attacks will be just the beginning. 287 00:23:39,732 --> 00:23:44,445 America will be vulnerable in a way it never has been. 288 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,534 There may be a way 289 00:23:49,700 --> 00:23:54,747 to illuminate your state of mind more explicitly. 290 00:24:02,797 --> 00:24:07,176 I can swear an affidavit that earlier today you told me to inform Karen Hayes 291 00:24:07,343 --> 00:24:11,055 you had no intention of reinstating her, but you'd let her perform her duties 292 00:24:11,222 --> 00:24:13,307 on a temporary basis only. 293 00:24:13,474 --> 00:24:19,147 Then Wayne regained consciousness before I could have that conversation with her. 294 00:24:19,313 --> 00:24:22,358 You'd be perjuring yourself in front of the Supreme Court. 295 00:24:22,525 --> 00:24:24,986 I'm aware that it's perjury. 296 00:24:26,654 --> 00:24:29,448 But the end justifies the means. 297 00:24:31,075 --> 00:24:34,537 My affidavit will push the court to rule in your favor so that you can do 298 00:24:34,704 --> 00:24:37,331 what's right for this country. 299 00:24:41,961 --> 00:24:44,046 You're right. 300 00:24:47,216 --> 00:24:49,427 Do it. 301 00:24:49,594 --> 00:24:51,721 Prepare your affidavit. 302 00:24:58,311 --> 00:25:00,354 And, Lisa... 303 00:25:02,273 --> 00:25:04,317 Thank you. 304 00:25:07,195 --> 00:25:08,446 Yes, sir. 305 00:25:26,214 --> 00:25:28,299 Hasim, Hasan, with me. 306 00:25:30,843 --> 00:25:33,763 I'm meeting Gredenko.

Or just anxious to take my place? 309 00:25:43,648 --> 00:25:47,652 I think we're wasting time. We have the bombs. We should use them right now. 310 00:25:47,818 --> 00:25:51,822 Gredenko's information will enable us to inflict damage across half of California. 311 00:25:51,989 --> 00:25:55,493 There's other targets out there will result in large amount of casualty 312 00:25:55,660 --> 00:26:00,539 - without the additional risk. - I've made my decision. 313 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,005 Let's go. 314 00:26:19,392 --> 00:26:21,477 Come in. 315 00:26:25,147 --> 00:26:29,402 Mr. Vice President, I need to speak with you alone. 316 00:26:40,913 --> 00:26:45,668 There is something in this room you need to know about, sir. 317 00:26:45,835 --> 00:26:50,423 "Something in this room"?

Tell Bill I want him to keep me up to date on CTU's progress. 355 00:29:52,354 --> 00:29:55,149 - Yes, sir? - Melinda... 356 00:29:55,316 --> 00:29:57,902 - Tell Dr. Welton I need to see him, please. - Certainly. 357 00:29:59,361 --> 00:30:03,365 I don't have a visual yet, but Fayed won't show himself until he sees Gredenko. 358 00:30:03,532 --> 00:30:07,495 - Ryan, what's your status with Gredenko? - I've got the audio transmitter set up. 359 00:30:07,661 --> 00:30:09,914 Preparing the tracker now. 360 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:12,124 Roll up your left sleeve. 361 00:30:12,291 --> 00:30:16,337 - What's his range? - We can track up to 15 miles. 362 00:30:16,504 --> 00:30:18,547 Copy that. 363 00:30:20,299 --> 00:30:22,301 - Is it radioactive? - Yes. 364 00:30:24,261 --> 00:30:27,598 It penetrates into the bone. It's got a half-life of about 11 hours, 365 00:30:27,765 --> 00:30:30,100 so forget about digging it out or making a run for it. 366 00:30:30,267 --> 00:30:33,604 - He's good to go. - Bill, how far out is Doyle's team? 367 00:30:33,771 --> 00:30:36,065 - About 20 minutes. - We can't wait. 368 00:30:36,232 --> 00:30:41,111 Fayed was clear about his time line. Ryan, send in Gredenko. 369 00:30:41,278 --> 00:30:43,322 Gredenko's moving now. 370 00:30:53,207 --> 00:30:57,419 I'm getting a clean audio signal from the transmitter on Gredenko. 371 00:30:57,586 --> 00:31:04,927 And we are locked on the isotope signature that's being emitted from Gredenko's arm. 372 00:31:40,045 --> 00:31:41,422 Hello? 373 00:31:42,047 --> 00:31:43,132 Hello? 374 00:31:43,299 --> 00:31:50,139 I have the gain on Gredenko's transmitter up all the way. There's no one on the other end. 375 00:31:51,599 --> 00:31:54,727 He's reading something off his phone. It's a text message. 376 00:31:54,893 --> 00:32:00,983 Fayed's made contact. Everyone get ready. Gredenko is heading south. 377 00:32:01,150 --> 00:32:04,028 I'm moving in. 378 00:32:04,194 --> 00:32:09,366 - Milo, have you got him on the tracker? - Yeah. He's still moving. 379 00:32:09,533 --> 00:32:12,786 I'm heading in. I'm gonna follow him. 380 00:33:14,306 --> 00:33:17,893 I've lost audio signal. I'm going to secondary channel. 381 00:33:18,060 --> 00:33:22,398 - There's no audio on the secondary channel. - But he hasn't moved. 382 00:33:25,109 --> 00:33:27,861 I don't like it. Something's wrong. 383 00:33:28,028 --> 00:33:31,573 - You led them to me. - I had no choice. 384 00:33:32,991 --> 00:33:37,955 But if you listen to me, we'll both get away from here alive. 385 00:33:38,789 --> 00:33:40,874 Hasim. 386 00:33:55,848 --> 00:33:58,892 Which direction, Milo? I'm nearing the south end of the pier. 387 00:33:59,059 --> 00:34:04,356 That's where he stopped and entered the building on the left. 388 00:34:17,286 --> 00:34:22,916 - Is he still inside the room? - Yes. He's right on the other side of the door. 389 00:34:23,083 --> 00:34:25,127 I'm going in. 390 00:34:28,589 --> 00:34:30,924 Milo, no one's in here. 391 00:34:31,091 --> 00:34:37,639 Jack, the tracker's showing the signal right there in the room with you. 392 00:34:46,273 --> 00:34:48,192 My God! 393 00:34:48,358 --> 00:34:53,113 They cut off Gredenko's arm! Ryan, move your men in now! 394 00:34:56,033 --> 00:35:00,037 Hold on. I've picked up his blood trail. 395 00:35:01,747 --> 00:35:07,169 Fayed, their men will be coming from the west side parking lot. 396 00:35:07,753 --> 00:35:09,838 We should go this way. 397 00:35:11,590 --> 00:35:14,885 Ryan, circle back to the east side of the pier. Try and cut 'em off. 398 00:35:15,052 --> 00:35:16,720 I want Fayed alive. 399 00:35:32,402 --> 00:35:34,279 - Ryan, you got anything? - Negative. 400 00:35:34,446 --> 00:35:36,365 - How far out is Doyle's team? - 20 minutes. 401 00:35:36,532 --> 00:35:39,785 Have him set up a perimeter as soon as he gets here. 402 00:35:54,007 --> 00:35:58,720 - Ryan, where are you? I'm pinned down. - Moving towards you now. 403 00:36:03,767 --> 00:36:06,103 Show me your head. 404 00:36:18,323 --> 00:36:22,661 The same terrorist cell is most likely responsible for the explosion in Valencia... 405 00:36:22,828 --> 00:36:24,329 - We're trapped. - This way. 406 00:36:24,496 --> 00:36:27,791 ..and the assassination attempt on President Palmer. 407 00:36:27,958 --> 00:36:30,377 - That's him! - What? 408 00:36:30,544 --> 00:36:35,507 I recognize him from the news! It's the terrorist they're looking for! 409 00:36:35,674 --> 00:36:39,136 - Terrorist? - That is him. 410 00:36:39,303 --> 00:36:41,471 You bastard. 411 00:36:54,651 --> 00:36:56,570 Federal agent! 412 00:36:56,737 --> 00:37:01,158 I am a federal agent. I'm taking this man into custody. Now back off! 413 00:37:01,325 --> 00:37:03,327 - Back off! - He shot my friend. 414 00:37:03,493 --> 00:37:06,204 We'll get him medical attention. Just stay back. 415 00:37:06,371 --> 00:37:09,541 - I hope your friend is dead. - Shut up! 416 00:37:09,708 --> 00:37:12,169 Everybody out of the bar now! Move! 417 00:37:13,378 --> 00:37:17,549 Ryan, this is Jack. Gredenko is not here. Lock down the area, initiate a search. 418 00:37:17,716 --> 00:37:21,345 We have two men down. One is a civilian, the other is Fayed. He's in custody. 419 00:37:21,511 --> 00:37:25,432 - I need medical up here now. - All right, Jack. Good work. 420 00:37:25,599 --> 00:37:28,727 Nadia, get me the president, please. 421 00:37:34,399 --> 00:37:39,029 I understand you're weak. More Adrenalin will raise your blood pressure even higher, 422 00:37:39,196 --> 00:37:41,281 to the point where we know there'll be vascular damage. 423 00:37:41,448 --> 00:37:44,743 - That's a risk I'm willing to take. - Your wellbeing is my responsibility. 424 00:37:44,910 --> 00:37:48,664 And my responsibility is the wellbeing of this country, 425 00:37:48,830 --> 00:37:54,670 so give me another dose or I will find someone else who will. 426 00:38:06,223 --> 00:38:10,102 Mr. President? Bill Buchanan on line one. 427 00:38:10,602 --> 00:38:12,688 I'll take it. 428 00:38:18,276 --> 00:38:20,445 Thank you, Arthur. 429 00:38:20,612 --> 00:38:22,447 Yes, sir. 430 00:38:32,457 --> 00:38:34,501 - Bill? - I'm calling to tell you 431 00:38:34,668 --> 00:38:37,546 - that Jack has Fayed in custody. - What about the bombs? 432 00:38:37,713 --> 00:38:42,426 We haven't finished the scan yet. We can't confirm the bombs are in the vicinity. 433 00:38:42,592 --> 00:38:45,220 Jack is going to interrogate Fayed as soon as possible. 434 00:38:45,387 --> 00:38:48,515 There's no way of knowing how successful that will be, right? 435 00:38:48,682 --> 00:38:52,436 - No, sir. - All right, Bill. That's what I wanted to know. 436 00:38:52,602 --> 00:38:54,646 Thank you, sir. 437 00:39:50,994 --> 00:39:54,539 The case was withdrawn. The court has no reason to retain the documents. 438 00:39:54,706 --> 00:40:00,796 They should be sealed and returned to me immediately. Good. Thank you. 439 00:40:03,715 --> 00:40:08,261 I was thinking that maybe it's time to declare a truce. 440 00:40:10,013 --> 00:40:12,349 OK. Well, maybe it is. 441 00:40:12,516 --> 00:40:17,020 I know we both want the same thing for this country, what's good for the country. 442 00:40:17,187 --> 00:40:20,190 We just don't always agree on the means. 443 00:40:20,357 --> 00:40:26,404 I would love to go forward without the threats and the intimidation. 444 00:40:27,906 --> 00:40:29,241 Done. 445 00:40:30,367 --> 00:40:32,536 Good. One more thing. 446 00:40:32,702 --> 00:40:37,499 Do you know why the vice president withdrew his suit from the Supreme Court? 447 00:40:37,666 --> 00:40:39,793 No. I've no idea. Why? 448 00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:43,964 One of my aides saw you with him before it was announced. 449 00:40:44,131 --> 00:40:48,301 I guess just put this down to happy coincidence. 450 00:40:48,468 --> 00:40:51,847 For now. But someday I'd love to know the real story. 451 00:40:52,013 --> 00:40:53,890 OK. Someday. 452 00:40:54,057 --> 00:40:56,101 Lennox. 453 00:40:59,980 --> 00:41:04,860 He... This cannot be. This has gotta be some mistake. 454 00:41:05,026 --> 00:41:06,444 I'm on my way. 455 00:41:06,611 --> 00:41:08,947 - President Palmer. - What? 456 00:41:09,823 --> 00:41:13,785 He's about to go ahead with the nuclear strike. 457 00:41:16,663 --> 00:41:17,914 Mr. President? 458 00:41:20,584 --> 00:41:24,754 If I may, sir. I understand you're about to launch the very strike 459 00:41:24,921 --> 00:41:27,716 we just prevented Vice President Daniels from launching. 460 00:41:27,883 --> 00:41:31,011 - That's right. - This makes no sense, sir. 461 00:41:31,178 --> 00:41:37,559 - It's what you risked your life to stop! - I risked my life to reassert my authority. 462 00:41:37,726 --> 00:41:41,271 Vice President Daniels calling me weak. Even you thought the same thing. 463 00:41:41,438 --> 00:41:45,358 I implore you, sir, do not mistake being reckless with being strong. 464 00:41:45,525 --> 00:41:48,320 - I am done talking. - Mr. President. 465 00:41:49,654 --> 00:41:52,240 - We have a successful launch. - Good.
