Right now...
terrorists are plotting to assassinate a presidential candidate.
My wife and daughter are in danger
and people that I work with may be involved in both.
I'm Federal Agent Jack Bauer.
And this is the longest day of my life.

I can go over your head, Mr. Almeida.
And I assure you, there will be consequences.
I apologize, Senator, but we do have protocol.
Our district director, Ryan Chappelle, Is working on a clearance.
- But if I could tell him why you're here... - All he needs to know...
...is that I need to talk to Jack Bauer, and I need to do it now.
- Can I get you anything while... - No.
Chappelle.
Yeah, I don't think I can stall the Senator much longer.
He wants to know why he can't see Jack.
What did you tell him?
I told him you were working on it.
- He still didn't say why he was here? - No, he just wants to see Jack.
Until I know more I don't want to put those two together.
I'm checking it out now.
All right.
So?
- Find out what Palmer's doing here? - Not yet.
Any new Intel on the backup shooters?
Yeah. An Alexis Drazen.
Looks Iike he's connected to two other shooters, but he stopped In DC...
...for a couple of days before landing in LAX on Saturday.
There's other inconsistencies. I'm still working on it.
- Where's the report? - I routed it to Nina's computer.
- Send me a copy, would you? - Yeah.
I still don't understand why you're taking us to a safe house.
Weren't we supposed to answer questions at Jack's office?
We're going to do that at the safe house, now.
Is my dad going to be there?
Not right away. Maybe when he's done at CTU.
Are we okay, Nina?
Everything's fine.
A small, controlled environment is the most secure place for both of you.
- Does Jack know you're taking us? - Of course. Myers.
We're moving Teri and Kim to the safe house now. We should be there soon.
Mom, you never told me what the doctor said.
It was a cyst that burst.
She said it wasn't serious.
- Then why did she... - Honey, there's nothing to worry about.
She said it would go away all by itself.
Gaines first made contact with me on my cell phone.
He directed me to a car in a parking lot of St. Mark's.
The transmitter was in the car?
Yeah, that's when he asked me to put it in my ear.
Can we take a break for a second?
Could you find out for me how my wife and daughter are doing?
Teri and Kim have already left the clinic.
What?
They're fine. Nina's moving them to a safe house.
You knew they were moving my family and you didn't tell me?
That's it. This is over.
I don't say another word. I want to speak to Chappelle.
Now, Alberta!
You're exhausting.
I was surprised you called last night.
I didn't think I'd see you again after DC.
I'm not really that easy, you know.
Will you have another break later in the day?
The Senator has to leave town this afternoon.
He's going to Nevada.
Only a few of us were told about it...
...and I am one of the ones who has to go with him.
- You have to hold his hand? - In so many words.
Is it too much to hope that you might have some free time in Nevada?
You would want to come?
If you want me.
You know, this is a pretty big shower. There's room enough for two.
I'm on my way.
- Alan. - What can I do for you?
I'm trying to talk to a CTU agent named Jack Bauer.
- Where are you? - CTU Los Angeles.
They say I need clearance, but it's taking forever.
Not a problem. Who's In charge over there?
Ryan Chappelle.
Yeah, okay. I'll take care of this right away.
Thank you, Alan.
I owe you.
Senator Palmer.
Ryan Chappelle.
What seems to be the problem, Ryan?
Why can't I get in to see Agent Bauer?
Please forgive the wait.
When an agent is under internal investigation...
...procedure is to keep him isolated until he's been fully interrogated.
It's really out of my hands.
Even if I could help you with your investigation?
Mr. Chappelle.
Alan Optican from the Pentagon is on the line for you.
Excuse me.
Chappelle.
Alan Optican, Department of Defense.
Yes, sir.
From now on, the Senator is to be given carte blanche.
You make sure he gets whatever he needs.
Yes, sir.
- Understood? - Yes, sir.
Thank you.
Bring Jack Bauer down here right away.
Thanks...
...for helping me cut through the red tape.
I want all your cameras and recording equipment shut down.
This is going to be a private conversation.
I understand.
I'll make sure the room is secure.
Thank you.
- Hey, Jack. - Hey.
Nina called, wanted me to tell you Teri and Kim are fine.
- Who's guarding the house? - Paulson and Breeher.
Okay, good.
- Also, Chappelle wants to see you in the conference room.
Good.
Thanks a lot, Tony.
Milo, sorry I had to switch the cards on you last night.
I had no choice.
No problem. We understand what you were going through.
Thanks for your help.
Senator Palmer.
Leave us.
- I'll be outside. - Thank you.
Close the door.
Sit.
Yes, sir.
I want to know who's working with you.
- In which context, sir? - Right here, right now.
We're going to end this.
I don't know what they told you...
I know why you want me dead.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Kosovo.
Kosovo?
I know you hold me responsible for the men you lost there.
Two years ago today.
You know about Operation Nightfall?
I authorized the mission.
- I know you took out - Drazen and his inner circle.
I know you lost six men in the process.
- You think I want revenge? - Yes, I do.
With all due respect, I almost died today trying to protect you.
If I blame anyone for the death of my men In Kosovo, sir, I blame myself.
- What were you doing at the power plant? - I was trying...
The reason why I went for that Secret Service agent's gun...
...was to try and get you out of the room without giving myself away.
The people that want you dead, they had kidnapped my family.
They threatened to kill them if I didn't assist them in the assassination attempt.
They didn't tell you any of this when you came in, did they, sir?
No.
It's the truth.
You can verify it with Chappelle.
They're just arriving at the safe house.
Copy that.
This way Mrs. Bauer.
These are agents Ted Paulson and Jeff Breeher.
They've worked with Jack for many years. They're two of our best.
This is Jack's wife, Teri, and their daughter Kim.
- Hi. - Hi, Kim.
Where do you want us?
One in and one out.
It's not exactly home, but it's relatively comfortable.
There are motion detectors every ten yards.
How long do we have to stay here?
We'll worry about that after we finish debriefing you.
Nina, where's the bathroom?
There's one in each bedroom, right through there.
If you'd both like to clean up before we get started, please do.
I was the head of the Special Defense Appropriations Committee in the Senate.
Which is just a euphemism for "covert operations."
Three years ago, the CIA brought to my attention...
...atrocities committed by Victor Drazen In Kosovo.
Massacres, torture, ethnic cleansing.
The man was a monster.
And was gaining support.
I tried to go through the usual channels...
...but I couldn't get anyone to work quickly enough.
So I contacted the one person I knew...
...who could get the job done.
Have him terminated, off the books.
And that would be Robert Ellis?
That's right.
Ellis was funded through a discretionary fund of my committee.
His job was to implement the covert missions...
...and see to It that no names were leaked.
Now we're both on somebody's list.
So this is payback for what happened that day.
That's the only thing that makes sense.
But if someone could put your name and my name on a list together...
...that means they should be able to find Robert Ellis, too.
You're right.
Four sixes.
Let's see 'em.
I knew it. I saw it in your eyes.
If you could read what's in my eyes you'd crawl under a rock and cry.
Go again.
- Ellis. - Bobby, this Is David Palmer.
You've got to be kidding.
I'm not. I'm here with Jack Bauer.
Get lost.
What are you doing in the same room with Bauer?
I went to a lot of trouble to make sure you two never met.
Someone close to Victor Drazen seems to have connected us.
Explain.
Someone wants me dead, and it appears they want Bauer, too. Today.
The two-year anniversary of Nightfall.
I'm the only one who even knows you both were involved in Nightfall.
Apparently not.
And if we're on the list, it's likely you are, too.
- Let me talk to Bauer. - I'm right here, Bob.
Jack.
- You still at CTU? - Yeah.
To source this, we'll need each other's help.
Unfortunately, over the last 12 hours I've had to cut a few corners.
I'm being investigated right now. My hands are tied.
Get them untied. David can help you there.
If this is about revenge, it has to be someone connected to your team...
No, that's not possible.
No one on my team knew of the Senator's involvement.
Then it has to be Drazen's group.
I'll retrieve the closed file on Nightfall.
It'll contain the names of Drazen's associates.
That'll take a few minutes.
In the meantime, you need to pick up a trail on the money.
Odds are it's funded through Belgium.
Can you get to your K-3 accounts from there?
Yes, if I get reinstated.
All right, start there.
We'll compare names when we talk again. Where can I reach you?
CTU, Los Angeles office.
All right.
Teri?
Yes?
I put some clean clothes on the bed.
Thank you.
They called me in and said you decided not to fly out.
What happened? Aren't we going to Nevada?
Apparently not, the Senator needed to take care of something first.
He thought we'd be safest here.
- Are you going to take a later flight? - I don't know. I hope so.
Call the Times, tell them I'll do that phoner, 45 minutes.
Sure.
Hello.
- You miss me yet? - Of course.
I hope you didn't book your flight to Nevada.
I was just about to.
Why?
We might not be going.
When will you know?
About an hour.
If you stay in town, will you remain at the hotel?
I don't know, they might switch us at the last minute for security reasons.
Either way, I'll let you know where I am.
I can still smell your perfume on my skin.
I'll call you as soon as I know.
- Is that the girl? - Yes.
Palmer might not be leaving after all.
Better for us.
Was there any problem getting rid of Gaines' people?
No.
You should never have used him. I told you it was a mistake.
Fine. You fixed the mistake.
Let's move on.
She looks like Martina.
Our sister is dead, Andre.
Leave It alone.
- Have you spoken to Jovan and Mishko? - They have their targets in sight.
And as for Palmer...
...I give you my word, he will be dead by midnight.
- Do you have any toothpaste? - Yeah, honey, it's right there.
That's nothing. The doctor just wanted me to take it as a precaution.
You scared me.
Kim?
What?
You're pregnant.
I don't understand.
What happened to you today? How is that possible?
No, it was Dad, of course, but, with tests like this, it takes time...
You were trying to have a kid and you didn't tell me?
No, honey, it wasn't like that.
Kim.
- What? - Please.
This is just as much a shock to me as it is to you.
Dad and I used birth control. It's protection, but It's never 100 percent.
It's your life. You don't need my permission.
I'm not asking for your permission.
Once in a while, you have to think about what another person is going through.
Honey, I just found out I'm pregnant.
You don't think that terrifies me?
It does.
Mom, I'm sorry.
Are there any other names on the HK Iist that you recognize, David?
Rich Dolan, Michael Redman. That's it.
- They weren't cleared till after the op. - Come on in.
I'll use what we have so far.
I shouldn't be here. Green's got me on priority.
I cleared it.
- Okay, Bob, he's here. - Milo.
Yeah. Who are you?
Don't worry about me. I see you opened some sockets up to MI5.
- Yeah, how did you know that? - Doesn't matter.
Right now, we're trying to hook up some names. I'm going to help you.
What's your login ID and password?
Give it to him.
The login ID is "L-F-N."
Password's "foothill 94022." Lower case.
Okay, hang on.
Okay. Looks like we've got some partial results.
Partial?
Yeah. Looks like there's something missing here.
What do you mean, Bob?
Something's been removed.
I'll look into it.
Meanwhile, Milo, I'm going to...
I'm going to send a file to your server.
Why don't you print out hard copies for Jack and David?
- Yeah, sure. - Thanks, Milo.
All right, here we go.
Feels like I haven't eaten in years.
Feels good, doesn't it?
Not being afraid anymore.
Yeah.
I'm sorry, Mom. I was being really stupid before.
When are you going to tell Dad?
You know what?
Right now.
Come on.
CTU, Almeida.
Hi, Tony, it's Teri Bauer calling. Could I talk to Jack, please?
Hi, Teri. Actually, it's a bad time. He's kind of busy right now.
Could you tell him to call me back? It's important.
Sure.
I really wanted to hear his reaction.
I'm so lucky to have you. Baby.
Hi. Sorry, but we really need to start the debrief.
CTU's eager to find out what you know.
- We're ready. - Yeah.
Great. I'd like to start with just you, Teri.
Fine.
I think I'm going to go to my room.
That's a good idea, honey. You should try and get some rest.
This is standard procedure. We're going to put you on videotape.
Okay.
- Yeah. - Hi, Rick?
Hey, Kim.
Are you okay?
Yeah. I just lost a little blood.
You need to see a doctor. You don't sound good.
I need a few days' rest, that's all.
You should turn yourself in. You can get medical attention.
I can also get arrested.
You helped us escape. I'll tell them that.
No!
Don't tell them anything about me.
It's too late.
My mom's already being questioned. They're going to ask about you.
I'm next. I can't lie.
Okay.
Don't.
Just tell them that I didn't know anything about what was going on...
...and that Dan threatened me. He had a gun.
Okay, but promise me you'll turn yourself in.
I got to think this through. I'm not like you, Kim.
I don't come from a good family. System's not going to give me a break.
It's your only way out of this.
I brought you to Gaines.
That's kidnapping.
They could put me in jail for the rest of my life.
What's incredible is that this has nothing to do with me running for president.
It has nothing to do with...
...the primary.
It has nothing to do with my being black.
It's just revenge for taking out Victor Drazen.
Yes.
- Hello? - David, It's Sherry.
Hi. Are you back at the hotel?
- Yes. Where are you? - I'm at CTU, a government agency.
Why?
There are some things I have to take care of.
David, what's going on?
I'm trying to find out who's attempting to kill me, Sherry.
I've got to go. Just wait for me at the hotel, okay?
- Okay. - Bye.
It just doesn't stop.
I'm sorry this is happening to you, sir.
You've been detained.
Your family's been kidnapped...
...and you're concerned about me?
That didn't have anything to do with the election.
That was about my son.
Is he okay?
I just realized today...
...that I haven't always been there for him.
And what's killing me...
...is that he's always been there for me.
Being the son of a politician isn't easy.
Being a son, or a daughter...
...or a father...
...none of it's easy.
Your wife and daughter okay?
I don't know.
I hope so.
Okay. Try to be relaxed. I just have a few questions.
This just came in from Ellis. I organized it into three sections.
Cross-references are In the first part. Then, a summary of Operation Nightfall.
Details that may or may not be important, I put in the last part.
- Any word on the missing file? - No, not yet.
Okay, thanks, Milo.
What is the ambassador to Libya doing on this list?
Probably helped keep Drazen's money separate from the government.
We've had our eye on him for quite some time.
Do you know René Bonniére?
- No. Who's he? - He's out of North Africa.
Some higher-ups at District thought he was trying to set up terrorist cells in the U.S.
Jack. Page 4.
Second paragraph down.
Drazen's wife and daughter were in the bunker?
Did you know about this?
This wasn't In our Initial report.
They died in the explosion.
My God.
This is an eye for an eye.
We took out Drazen and his family...
...and now someone wants mine.
Who's in charge of protecting your family?
Jack!
Who has the authority to add security to your family?
Chappelle.
- Yes, Senator? - Send in Mr. Chappelle right away.
Yes, sir.
So there was nothing else you saw or heard...
...that gave you a glimpse Into their operation?
No. That's it.
They really didn't talk much in front of us.
Tell me about Rick. You said he helped you?
- Yeah. - How?
Different ways. But mainly, he gave us a gun and he helped us escape.
How'd he get a gun?
I don't know.
- You don't know his last name? - No.
I don't think Kimberly does, either, but you can ask her.
How did she meet him?
Through her friend Janet York.
Everyone used to tell me, "Wait until she's a teenager.
"You'll finally understand the meaning of the word 'worry."'
I'm sure she'll grow out of it.
Jack says she's basically a level-headed kid.
Jack talks about Kim?
Just the usual stuff.
That surprises me.
Jack's work always seems so serious and secretive.
It's hard to picture him sitting around the office talking about his family.
Sometimes...
...at lunch, he'll bring up something if something's on his mind.
Do you think Rick had the confidence of Ira Gaines...
...the leader of the group?
I really couldn't tell you that.
Nina, could I ask you a question?
Sure.
When Jack and I were separated...
...did he ever talk about me?
Jack never discussed his marriage.
Oh.
Sometimes he would talk about Kim.
You know.
We all knew he was going through a very hard time...
...and that he missed you both very much.
When Jack and I got back together again...
...he told me that he'd been with someone else.
I told him it didn't matter what I did, what he did...
...when we were apart, that was in the past...
...that the only thing that mattered was what we did from that point on.
It was you, wasn't it?
Teri.
I saw it when we got off the helicopter.
I saw it when you looked at him.
After you were separated...
Yes, we saw each other.
But it didn't last long.
He realized it was a mistake and he went back to you.
What about you?
What about me?
Did you think it was a mistake?
- Are you still sleeping with him? - No.
Teri.
It was over before he went back to you. That is the truth.
I realize this is a terrible time for you to discover all this.
When do you think a good time would be, Nina?
I'm sorry.
We have to get through the rest of this.
I need to take a break.
Yeah, Mike, I know.
We'll be leaving in about five minutes.
I can't wait for Ellis to get back to us, so I've got to go.
They won't let me continue to work here.
I'm technically still under arrest.
Come on.
Ryan.
Yes, Senator?
I understand you have Jack under arrest.
I told him I was being detained for questioning.
There's an ongoing crisis...
...that supersedes any charges that might be filed against him.
But, Senator...
I want him reinstated to his previous position, effective now.
Sorry, but you don't have the authority to make that decision.
Alberta, please.
Sir...
...what you are asking isn't possible.
The charges against Agent Bauer are serious.
We would be held In contempt of agency regulations...
...if we reinstated him without a hearing.
Ryan, you don't have to reinstate me. Not permanently.
Nobody here has as much information about this situation as I do.
Give me provisional status just till the end of the day.
Then you can take me back into custody, do whatever you want.
Fine, Jack.
You work the case out of CTU, but you answer to me.
Good luck with your campaign, Senator.
Thank you.
Walk with me.
Secret Service wants me to leave the state.
- They say it's not safe. - I agree with them.
The one thing we know is that Drazen's people are here...
...and they want us today. And it's almost 3:00 now.
The day Is more than half over.
I'm going to stay.
Let's flush them out into the open and deal with them.
Otherwise, you and I and our families...
...will be looking over our shoulders for the rest of our lives.
I understand.
I'll follow up with Ellis. I'll keep you posted. You know how to get in touch with me.
Jack.
I'm sorry that I misjudged you.
Thank you, Senator.
Excuse me.
Before my mom came, nobody talked to me.
They put me in the room, I was locked in there.
What about Rick?
Rick? What about Rick?
He was one of your kidnappers, right?
Not exactly.
What do you mean? I thought he and Dan brought you to Gaines.
It was mostly Dan. Not Rick.
I think he was actually just as surprised as we were about what was happening.
Really?
Yeah.
He was fighting with Dan the entire time.
He actually helped us escape.
Okay, hold on, let's not get ahead of ourselves. Can we...
Hold on.
- Myers. - Hey, it's me.
Chappelle reinstated me to provisional status for the rest of the day...
...at Palmer's request.
That's great, Jack.
Yeah. How's everything going over there?
Not bad.
- We're sending over two more teams. - Why?
Looks like Teri and Kim were targets as well.
Nina...
...it is not information they need to know, okay?
No, of course.
Good. Thanks.
- Let me speak to Teri, okay? - Sure.
Teri?
It's Jack.
- Hi, Jack. - Hey, sweetheart.
You okay? How you doing?
I'm okay.
How's Kim?
She's fine.
I got a message that you wanted to tell me something important.
No, it's nothing important.
Are you sure? You sound funny.
It's nothing. I just...
I just...
I'm so tired.
Why don't you just try and get some rest, then, sweetheart.
Listen, if...
If you need anything from the house...
...I'll have someone go get It for you. Okay?
Yeah, okay.
I got to go. I love you, okay? I'll call you as soon as I can.
Okay. Bye-bye.
Mom. I'll be right back.
So what did he say?
I didn't tell him.
Why not?
It wasn't the right time.
Just go back and finish with Nina, honey.
What's wrong?
Nothing.
I just think you should finish answering Nina's questions.
Bauer.
- Jack, it's Bob. - Hey, Bob.
I shot over a few more things to Milo...
...but I still can't locate the missing file.
How can I help?
I gave Milo enough for him to try it on your end.
The more I look at this, the more I'm convinced...
...the file was taken out deliberately.
Which leads me to believe it contains what we're looking for.
Can you give me an estimate of when you think the file was stolen?
Also, a list of people who you think could have had access to get in there?
Not yet, but you tell Milo that I got some ideas on how...
Bob?
Bob!
Can you hear me?
Bob!
