A newscast reports the terrorist bomb attacks in ten U.S. cities. Evidence points to Islamic militants.
6:01 A.M.
On a Los Angeles street, a Middle-Eastern man is refused entry to a bus because he looks suspicious. On that same bus is a young man listening to a music player. The player has an extra wire running to his bag. The man calmly presses a button, and the bus explodes.
6:02 A.M.
Special Advisor to the President Thomas Lennox debates National Security Advisor Karen Hayes in the White House Oval Office over the creation of detention facilities for locking up Muslims. Lennox tries appealing to President Wayne Palmer that this has legal precedent, but Wayne will not be swayed.
6:04 A.M.
Karen interrupts the discussion when she gets news on the attack in Los Angeles. CTU suspects that Hamri Al-Assad is behind the terrorism. Karen notes that her analysts believe his death will stop the organization from attacking again. Lennox has no faith in this plan, but Wayne ultimately declares that CTU must assassinate Assad.
6:05 A.M.
At CTU, Milo Pressman asserts his seniority over the sarcastic analyst Morris O’Brian. Chloe tells Morris to make an attempt to fit in. He responds by grabbing her from behind. Chloe doesn’t turn down the attention, but she doesn’t want their relationship on display at work.
6:06 A.M.
Chloe tells her superior Nadia Yassir that she got a weird military request from Homeland Security. Nadia confirms that this is the assault on Assad. They will find him by using Jack Bauer. Chloe is surprised when Nadia tells her that President Palmer negotiated the release of Jack from a Chinese prison. Nadia refuses to give Chloe any more information, but says that Buchanan is meeting Jack at an airfield.
6:08 A.M.
A Hercules C-130 military transport lands at Ellis Airfield in the darkness of the early morning. Buchanan and Curtis approach the plane as Chinese soldiers escort a bearded and shackled Jack to the tarmac. Cheng Zhi, the head of security from the Chinese Consulate who kidnapped Jack eighteen months ago, hands Buchanan the papers for transfer.
6:09 A.M.
As the handcuffs are removed, Curtis notices that Jack’s hands have been badly burned. Curtis takes the silent Jack into the nearby hangar. Cheng tells Buchanan that Jack has not spoken in all the time he has been captive.
6:10 A.M.
Buchanan explains to Jack why he has been released. Abu Fayed has agreed to give up his compatriot Assad in exchange for Jack. Fayed wants revenge for what something that happened in Beirut. Jack finally breaks his silence and asks about Audrey and Kim. Buchanan says that neither of them knows he is back. “You keep it that way,” Jack whispers.
6:13 A.M.
Curtis allows Jack to clean up. Jack looks in the mirror for the first time and sees the scars on his body.

6:20 A.M.
Chloe confronts Nadia about Jack’s whereabouts because she cannot reach Curtis or Buchanan. Chloe threatens to blackmail her, and Nadia finally admits the truth about why Jack is being turned over to Fayed for retribution. Fayed’s brother bombed the U.S. Embassy in Beirut in 1989. Jack captured him, and Fayed’s brother died during interrogation. Once they turn over Jack, Fayed will have full access to CTU’s surveillance so that they cannot track him. Chloe is incredulous that President Palmer would have authorized this.
6:23 A.M.
Morris sees that Chloe is upset. She tells him what is happening.
6:24 A.M.
Curtis and Buchanan drive the clean-shaven and newly dressed Jack to the drop point. Wayne calls Jack and cannot find the words to express his emotion. Jack stoically accepts the President’s apology.
6:25 A.M.
With Jack’s fate hanging over his conscious, Wayne questions his own ability to run the country. He wonders whether sacrificing Jack is a mistake. Lennox strongly disagrees, and says that Wayne’s brother David would have made the same decision.
6:27 A.M.
Karen accosts Lennox of preparing detention centers for Muslims even though it goes against the President’s order. Lennox wants to be ready with the centers because he is sure the President will change his mind.
6:28 A.M.
Over the phone, Fayed instructs Buchanan to handcuff Jack at a river access tunnel. Jack explains to Buchanan that he is ready to give up his life if it is on his own terms.
6:36 A.M.
Jillian and Ray Wallace watch the terrorist attack events unfold on television in their Los Angeles home. They argue over whether or not their son Scott should go to school. Scott comes in to tell them that the FBI is arresting their neighbor Yusuf.
6:38 A.M.
The Wallaces look out the window as Yusuf’s son Ahmed appeals to the police that his father is innocent. A neighbor named Stan chases Ahmed, who locks himself into his house with fear. Scott wants to help his friend, so Ray goes to Ahmed’s house.
6:40 A.M.

6:41 A.M.
Buchanan calls Nadia at CTU and she lets him know the military is ready to take out Assad.
6:42 A.M.
Morris secretly shows Chloe a satellite feed that’s not on the government grid. They can look up the location where Buchanan dropped off Jack.
6:43 A.M.
Fayed pulls up to Jack in the tunnel. “I’ve been waiting for this for a long time,” Fayed snarls. Fayed’s men knock Jack out and put him in the truck.
6:44 A.M.
Fayed receives a warning call from a computer tech named Sabir who has intercepted a private satellite from a government frequency scanning the tunnel. Fayed calls Nadia, and she denies any such satellite. Fayed warns her that there will be consequences. Milo checks the system and sees that the rogue satellite is coming from Chloe’s station. Nadia orders Chloe her and Morris to quickly reposition it. Sabir confirms that it has been done.
6:45 A.M.
Fayed threatens to not give CTU Assad’s whereabouts because of the deception. Nadia speaks to him in Arabic to try to appeal to him but he hangs up.
6:46 A.M.
Buchanan enters CTU and yells at Chloe. He would fire her but he cannot afford to lose the manpower. “We may have sacrificed Jack for nothing,” he sighs.
6:52 A.M.
Karen calls Buchanan, and he is forced to tell her that Chloe’s actions may have broken the deal with Fayed. Karen is furious with him, but then apologizes for lashing out.
6:53 A.M.
Jack is dragged into Fayed’s secret warehouse. Sabir gets word that Fayed’s money has been transferred and that no other satellites have been following them.
6:54 A.M.
Jack is brought into a torture room. He urges Fayed to call CTU, but Fayed punches him repeatedly. The men hook Jack up to a heart monitor. Fayed threatens to do to Jack what was done to his brother. Fayed pierces the bundle of nerves on Jack’s shoulder with a knife. Jack takes the immense pain calmly. Then Fayed splashes the wound with a liquid that makes Jack scream in agony. His heartrate speeds up. Once again, Jack implores Fayed to give CTU Assad’s location. Fayed says that Assad is a traitor who wants to compromise. He tells Jack that CTU is about to kill the wrong man. Assad isn’t behind the terrorist threats. He came to America in order to prevent Fayed from performing the attacks.
6:56 A.M.
Fayed stabs Jack in the back with something sharp, causing Jack to keel over. “You will die for nothing,” Fayed says. Fayed calls CTU and tells Buchanan that he put a transponder at Assad’s location. As Fayed gives CTU the coordinates, Jack memorizes the numbers. Buchanan has the military on call to take out Assad.
6:57 A.M.
Morris consoles Chloe by explaining that Jack knows what it takes to serve the greater good. Chloe cries on his shoulder.
Before Fayed can torture Jack even more, he is interrupted by an urgent phone call from someone. It’s Ahmed, who says that the FBI took his father. Although Ahmed is conspiring with Fayed, his father is innocent. Consoling Ahmed, Fayed says that his father was meant to be sacrificed.
6:58 A.M.
When the one man guarding him looks away, Jack rips off the heart monitor with his teeth. The beeps go monotone to signal his heart has stopped. The guard comes rushing over to fix the monitor and Jack lunges his head and bites the man hard in the neck. Jack spits out the flesh and the man passes out. Jack manages to take the man’s key and free his hands.
6:59 A.M.
Fayed instructs Ahmed over the phone to deliver the hidden package. Fayed returns to the torture room to find Jack missing. He sees an open door and has his men go look for him. Jack is actually hiding below the floor under a grate.

7:00 A.M.
Fayed and Sabir go looking for Jack in the tunnels under the river but they give up because they must focus on finishing their mission. They don’t see Jack, who is only a few yards away. Jack escapes.
7:02 A.M.
When Morris cannot locate Assad on the satellite, Milo remarks that Jack might have died for nothing. This annoys Chloe.
7:03 A.M.
Jack breaks into a parked car that has a cell phone left inside. He calls CTU and explains that Assad is not responsible for the bombings. Buchanan cannot rescind a Presidential order to stop the attack on Assad. He puts Jack through to the White House.
7:05 A.M.
As Wayne listens to Jack’s plea, neither Karen nor Lennox is convinced that Assad is innocent. Karen remarks that Jack’s ability to assess the situation is faulted by his current state. Jack insists to Wayne that they capture Assad to find out what he knows. Lennox encourages the President not to let his history with Jack affect his judgment. Wayne continues with plans to assassinate Assad.
7:07 A.M.
Jack uses the cell phone’s GPS navigation to plug in the coordinates that he memorized Fayed saying. This is Assad’s location. Jack finds the car’s key in the visor and he drives off.
7:08 A.M.
Ray Wallace gets nowhere trying to locate Ahmed’s father in the police department. Fayed calls Ahmed’s cell, and he finds out Ahmed doesn’t have the package that he needs. Fayed orders him to go retrieve it. Ahmed makes up an excuse to the Wallaces and leaves.
7:09 A.M.
The CTU and White House teams watch the monitors as the Cobra helicopters are en route to target Assad. Buchanan confirms that Curtis has a squad who will be in place at the site.
7:10 A.M.
Jack arrives at Assad’s safe house and sneaks inside the property gate. He distracts a guard and knocks him out with some chopped firewood. He takes the man’s gun.
7:11 A.M.
Jack enters the house. Assad recognizes him and raises his weapon. Jack explains that Fayed set him up and they are about to be hit. Jack says that there is a transponder in the house, but the guards say they already searched the premises. One of the men has it on him and is betraying Assad.
7:13 A.M.
Jack puts up his hands and Assad orders his men to empty their pockets. One named Omar does have the transponder. Jack surrenders the gun to prove he is telling the truth. Assad grabs Omar and runs out with Jack as the other two men try to secure the computer files.
7:15 A.M.
Jack, Assad and Omar barely clear the house when it is slammed by missiles. Buchanan reports to the President that the target has been destroyed.
7:19 A.M.
Attorney Sandra Palmer is alarmed when the FBI demands personnel records at her Washington office of the Islamic-American Alliance. Sandra adamantly refuses to turn over anything without a warrant. Frustrated, she calls her brother -- Wayne Palmer.
7:21 A.M.
Sandra tells Wayne that the search was unfounded. She suggests he check out his aide Lennox, who she is convinced has been slowly destroying civil protections. Wayne is quick to defend Lennox, but agrees to look into the matter later.

Walid Al-Rezani, the head of the I.A.A., kisses Sandra tenderly and thanks her for keeping up the good fight.

7:31 A.M.
Jack breaks into an abandoned house. He and Assad carry the unconscious Omar into the empty premises and hide out. Assad tells Jack that he has gotten his people and the governments that support them to agree to a ceasefire with the West. Fayed is trying to sabotage that. Jack finds some clothes left in the house and changes.
7:32 A.M.
Chloe does an aerial frame enhancement of the satellite feed before Assad’s safe house exploded. She sees that Jack is the one helping Assad flee. She shows Buchanan the image, and he wants to keep it a secret. He knows that Jack must be right and is using Assad to find Fayed. Buchanan has Chloe look for new chatter on Fayed.
7:33 A.M.
Jack steals a car. He tells Assad that they need to use CTU’s resources. Assad is distrustful of CTU and is determined to find Fayed alone.
7:35 A.M.
Jack aggravates Omar’s open wound but Omar claims to be unaware where Fayed is. Suddenly, Jack stops. He is oddly reluctant to inflict any more pain on the man. This uncharacteristically disturbs him. He tells the puzzled Assad that he could see it in Omar’s eyes that he wasn’t going to talk.
7:36 A.M.
Assad sticks his knife into Omar, who gives up that he knows where Fayed’s men are going to meet. After Omar gives him the address, Assad kills him. Assad goes to leave but Jack is frozen. “I don’t know how to do this anymore,” Jack whispers.
7:41 A.M.
The FBI returns to the Washington I.A.A. office with a warrant. As Walid takes the agents to uncover the files, Sandra grabs an employee’s computer and starts typing furiously.

The agents impound every computer in the office.
7:44 A.M.

7:50 A.M.
Jack and Assad pull up to the location that Omar supplied. Assad spots Nasir and another man named Masheer. He can tell that they are Fayed’s men. One is wearing an explosive vest. Jack realizes Fayed is setting up another bombing. Jack and Assad follow the two men into the subway station.
7:51 A.M.
The bomber Nasir clutches the detonator in his right hand. The second man is only the handler, who will leave once Nasir is on the train. The handler Masheer will lead them to Fayed. As the train pulls up, Jack instructs Assad to follow the handler. He is going after the bomb.
7:52 A.M.
Jack boards the train with Nasir. Assad follows Masheer out of the station. Masheer calls Fayed to let him know that Nasir will martyr himself when the train arrives at Union Station. Masheer gets in his car and drives off.
7:53 A.M.
The train ticket agent approaches Jack, who tells him that he is a federal agent and that there is a suicide bomber on board. The agent moves away quietly.
7:54 A.M.
Jack sees Nasir palm the detonator. He lunges for Nasir’s hand and wrenches it backwards. They struggle, and Nasir is knocked toward the back door of the car. Nasir grabs the detonator. Jack quickly kicks Nasir hard so that he crashes through the back window of the train as the bomb explodes. The flames shoot into the tunnel and the passengers are knocked back. No one is seriously hurt. Jack slams on the emergency brake and the train screeches to a stop. He runs out the back of the car.
7:56 A.M.
Masheer calls Fayed from Union Station to report that there was no explosion and that he can see a cloud of black smoke blocks away. Fayed watches a news report of explosions in Baltimore and Chicago. He is confident that their other attacks are going off as planned.
7:57 A.M.
Milo updates Buchanan that, besides the other two bombings that just occurred, there was also a suicide bomber in Los Angeles.

8:00 A.M.
As he follows Fayed’s handler, Assad picks up Jack. Fayed phones the handler Masheer and orders him to drive to another location.
8:01 A.M.
Buchanan tells the assembled White House staff that Jack averted the Los Angeles bombing. He was then spotted working with Assad. Yet they have not heard from Jack since they neglected to heed his warning about Fayed.
8:02 A.M.
Fayed calls the President, demanding that the U.S. release the Palmdale “enemy combatants” within the hour. Wayne does not trust him because he has reneged on his promises before.
8:04 A.M.
Since releasing the Palmdale prisoners is probably not Fayed’s end game, Lennox and Karen argue that they cannot negotiate with Fayed. Wayne insists it’s the only way to buy them time.
8:06 A.M.
As Masheer heads north out of the city, Jack senses that it will be harder for them to follow without being noticed. They will need to get CTU to track him on satellite. Assad refuses to work with CTU because they attacked him, but Jack says it’s only because Fayed convinced them that he was the enemy. With no other choice, Assad begrudgingly gives in to allowing CTU to assist.
8:07 A.M.
When Milo orders him to vet the Palmdale list of prisoners, Morris thinks his talents could be used more wisely. Chloe interrupts their argument and tells Morris to grow up.
8:08 A.M.
Jack calls CTU to get Chloe to trace the handler on the satellite. Because of the recent attacks’ overloading the satellites, Chloe figures it will take at least ten minutes for them to reposition. Plus, there are no traffic cameras in that area. Jack must follow the handler until the satellite is on track. Buchanan directs Curtis to head towards them. Curtis is surprised that they are now working with Assad.
8:09 A.M.
A businessman is getting into his car when Jack attacks him, stealing the vehicle. Jack races to catch up with Masheer, who is about to enter the freeway. Jack slams into Masheer’s car. He gets out and accuses him of bad driving. Assad pulls up and claims to be a witness, defending Masheer. Jack pretends to be angry at them for protecting their own kind. He says he doesn’t want to wait for the police to arrive. Jack peels out.
8:11A.M.
With Masheer’s car totaled, Assad offers to drive Masheer to wherever he has to go in Newhall. Masheer is in a hurry and agrees to the lift. Assad discreetly dials Jack’s phone and puts it on mute.
8:12 A.M.
Jack and CTU are able to hear Assad’s conversation with Masheer. Masheer tells Assad he will guide him to Newhall. Buchanan redirects Curtis there.
8:13 A.M.
Fayed gets word that there is increased activity over the Palmdale area. His plan is working, but it will be too late for the Americans to respond once the prisoners are released.
8:14 A.M.
Ahmed takes Scott back to the Wallace house at gunpoint. The entire Wallace family is taken hostage. Ahmed forces Jillian to treat his wounds. She encourages him to see a doctor, but he doesn’t have time. Unable to walk, Ahmed orders Ray to deliver his package. Ahmed threatens to kill Jillian and Scott if the police show up at the house.
8:21 A.M.
Morris questions why Chloe took Milo’s side over his. She thinks he always wants to be fired from whatever job he is doing.
8:22 A.M.
Karen updates the President on Jack’s alliance with Assad to find Fayed. Wayne still wants to proceed with loading the prisoners at Palmdale, per Fayed’s demands. Unless Jack can get Fayed within the hour, they have no other option.
8:23 A.M.
Assad comments out loud the name of an exit that he passes. Chloe makes note on the satellite tracking.
8:24 A.M.
Jack pulls off and gets into Curtis’s car as they follow Assad. Curtis asks Jack if it bothers him that they must work with Assad, a known terrorist. Jack doesn’t know what to think anymore. Jack notes that it isn’t their call. “We’ll see about that,” Curtis replies.
8:27 A.M.
Scott sneaks a knife into his pocket, but is unable to stab Ahmed.
8:32 A.M.
Over a hundred terrorist prisoners are lined up at the Palmdale Military Prison. One of the prisoners is named Numair.
8:33 A.M.
Lennox informs Wayne that his sister was arrested because she deleted personnel files requested by the FBI. Sandra is being detained in a provisional detention facility.
8:34 A.M.
As they arrive at the detention facility, Sandra apologizes to Walid because it was all her fault he was arrested.
8:35 A.M.
Wayne calls for Sandra, furious. He has ordered her release. Sandra says she would rather defend civil liberties against his Administration’s violation of them. She demands Walid’s release instead and vows that there is nothing incriminating in those files. Wayne will not do that, saying that Walid shouldn’t worry if he is truly innocent.
8:36 A.M.
Sandra demands to speak to Walid. The FBI agent won’t let her because Walid is being held under the revised enemy combatant statute. “Is the law being completely thrown out the window?” she asks before being escorted out.
8:37 A.M.
A man named Salim being held in detention refuses to cooperate with the National Guardsmen corralling him, and Walid steps in to assist the man. A Guardsman slugs Walid with a baton and sends him off for interrogation. Salim looks at Walid in gratitude.
8:41 A.M.
As Assad drives in the town of Newhall, he questions Masheer on who he is meeting. Masheer is cagey about his answers. Chloe gets the address where Assad is dropping off Masheer and pulls up data on all the buildings within a mile radius.
8:42 A.M.
Masheer gets out of the car, and Assad tells Jack that the coast is clear. Despite Jack’s insistence that they work with him, Curtis treats Assad like a prisoner instead of a collaborator. Curtis has his men take Assad into custody. Jack earnestly promises Assad that he will take care of him.
8:44 A.M.
Chloe tracks Masheer to a storage warehouse. The TAC teams see him open up a storage locker. There are crates with Czech writing and ammunition. Jack radios Buchanan that Fayed isn’t there, but Buchanan wants to move in anyway. Jack thinks it’s too risky. Masheer sees an agent and fires. The TAC teams shoot back. Masheer detonates a grenade, and the entire storage locker explodes.
8:46 A.M.
Jack lets Buchanan know that the suspect is dead, and that the laptop he had in storage was probably damaged in the fire. Buchanan quickly notifies the President that the suspect committed suicide rather than be arrested. With Fayed not captured, Wayne has no choice but to release the prisoners at Palmdale.
8:47 A.M.
The Guardsmen load the Palmdale prisoners onto a plane according to Fayed’s demands.
8:53 A.M.
Ray delivers Ahmed’s package to a man at an electronics parts store. The man opens it and sees bundles of cash. He says he will need an extra $50,000 in order to get the component Ahmed was purchasing. Panicked, Ray calls his house. Ahmed orders him to do whatever it takes to get the item or else he will kill his family.
8:56 A.M.
Ray knocks the man over the head with a lamp, and the man reaches for his gun. Ray fights him off and pounds the man’s head on the ground. Ray accidentally kills him.
8:57 A.M.
Chloe is able to recover the most recently accessed data file on the laptop in the damaged storage facility. It is a wiring schematic for an object that looks exactly like the component Ray was sent to pick up. Chloe sends it to Jack. Assad recognizes it as a nuclear detonator. Curtis lunges at Assad, furious that he knew about this ahead of time. Jack must pull Curtis off of Assad.
8:58 A.M.
Assad says that there is a reference file at the bottom that reads “Sovtel 3.” Nadia knows that this is a Russian suitcase nuke. She says that one had been missing and was suspected to have gone to a scientist with terrorist ties named Hasan Numair. Chloe uncovers an old surveillance photo of the man, and Assad knows him as an acquaintance of Fayed. Chloe finds that Numair is a terrorist being released from the Palmdale prison. Assad says that Fayed’s plan all along was to force the United States to free Numair.
8:59 A.M.
Buchanan has Nadia warn the President that he is stopping the Palmdale release. He notifies the Guardsman on duty to look for Numair on the plane. The Guardsman cannot locate Numair among the prisoners.
Meanwhile, on an empty prisoner bus, another guard finds Numair hiding in the back. “Hurry up,” the guard tells him. “Fayed is waiting for you.” Numair runs out of the bus unnoticed.

9:00 A.M.
Neither the Palmdale officers of the satellite can find Numair in the area near the prison. Buchanan is frustrated because Numair is a nuclear engineer and can build a bomb.
9:02 A.M.
Milo asks Morris for help on the search, but Morris claims he is doing a task for Chloe. Chloe denies assigning any work to him. Milo tells Morris off and orders him to do what he is told.

Karen lets the President know that a suitcase nuke might potentially kill hundreds of thousands of people. “Get me Jack Bauer,” Wayne intones.
9:05 A.M.
Jack is with Assad and Curtis going over the wreckage at the storage facility. Curtis makes it clear to Assad that he is still the enemy. Wayne calls Jack and asks him to take charge of the search for Fayed. Jack isn’t sure if he is up to the task, but has dutifully accepts the President’s request.
9:06 A.M.
Jack pleads with Curtis to accept Assad as part of the investigation because he is invaluable. Curtis snidely questions what the Chinese did to Jack that would affect his judgment. Assad interrupts with news that a PDA was found in the blast site. It says that the “visitor” arrived last week. Assad says that this is a code for a nuclear weapon. He thinks Numair must be the key to making the device operational.
9:08 A.M.
Jack warns Curtis that nothing is more important than finding Fayed and Numair. Yet just in case, Jack calls Chloe to secretly run a cross check on any relationship between Curtis and Assad.
9:09 A.M.
Numair arrives at Fayed’s safe house and he examines the nuclear device. It still requires Ahmed’s component to reprogram the trigger.
9:10 A.M.

He warns her that he will shoot Scott if she calls the police.
9:11 A.M.

Despite her husband’s wishes, Jillian calls 911.
9:19 A.M.

9:21 A.M.
Buchanan puts through Jillian’s call to Jack. She explains that Ahmed is holding her son captive so that her husband will deliver a package to someone named Fayed. Jack heads to Jillian’s house. Curtis is reluctant to have Assad accompany them on a tactical mission, but he follows Jack’s command.
9:22 A.M.
The President meets with an ambassador from a Middle East country. While the ambassador is not one hundred percent sure, he has reason to believe that Assad wants to negotiate towards peace. This corroborates Jack’s claim. Karen wants to lock down cooperation with Assad. Lennox is hesitant to form such a partnership with a known terrorist.
9:24 A.M.
Wayne calls Jack and tells him he wants to make a formal arrangement with Assad. Wayne speaks to Assad and offers him full protection and a pardon for past crimes in return for his help finding Fayed and a commitment to furthering peace. Assad asks for the pledge in writing.

When Graem is still tight-lipped, Jack urges Burke to go even higher with the IV.

:eek: OMG OMG OMG OMG

Why did I read these!!! Kath what are you doing to me!!!!!!

Roll on Sunday!!!

It's nothing to do with me. I'm pulling my hair out because of the excitement. The one good things is now we are only 1 hour behind the US. We will be able to see this episode on Sunday night.

I know the feeling Kath and I've never known hubby to be so excited about a programme! Are we still getting double episodes throughout this series on Sky One or are they going to be condensing it to one episode a week soon? Cos surely, we'd end up in front of the US wouldn't we? :searchme:

Its so brilliant though! What are they going to do to Morris to try and get him to do it? Will he end up dead aswell! OMG - I'm just.....just....speechless!!!!!

What a b*****d!!!

OMG - poor Jack! what a nest of vipers that family is!

you just can't think how crazy Jack is going to get now that he knows his brother was beind the killings of his best friends and he is yet to find out how his father is involved. And what about poor Chloe she only said the other week how everyone she knew always dies what will she do if Morris get's hurt.

In America next Monday night there is a double bill of 24! How will Sky deal with this as Lost starts again? Apparently Morris is a recovering alcoholic and Chloe is worried he's drinking again. Chloe may also have an interesting encounter with President Logan in CTU later in season. !

Skyone will only be showing 1 episode a week now that lost has returned, which means that the UK will be 2 episodes behind the US. This isn't too bad as in previous seasons the UK has been 5 or 6 episodes behind. As for Chloe having an encounter with ex-president Logan, he and Martha are due to return later in the series, it will be for Chloe to rip kick his slimey yellowbelly butt for what he did to her friends in day 5. As for Morris I think Chloe is more concerned about Morris staying alive another hour than she is about him drinking.

1:31 P.M.
Assad is escorted into the White House bunker. If Fayed detonates any more bombs then Wayne will not sign a peace agreement.

1:43 P.M.
Lennox expresses his frustration to Reed about Wayne using Assad in a televised speech. This will convey that America has declared that terrorism works. Reed brings up the idea that there may be others who have the same notions as Lennox and would want to see the Vice President lead instead of Wayne. Lennox is appalled and wants to know who he is talking about. Reed becomes evasive. Although he disagrees with Wayne’s policies, Lennox does not advocate the President’s removal. He notes that Reed’s intimations are grounds for treason. Reed doesn’t say anything further.

Lennox hangs up, unsure of the dark road he is about to undertake.

2:00 P.M.
Fayed lands his helicopter at the L.A. river basin where his team is waiting with the three remaining suitcase nukes.

2:03 P.M.

Yet he offers to reach out to some of his other company executives for information.
2:10 P.M.
Chloe goes to check in on Morris, trying to find words of comfort. He is cold towards her, blaming himself for the other bombs that Fayed will surely set off.

The field reports show that Jack exceeded protocols, even after Burke warned him about the dangerous levels of serum. Jack explains that he might have killed his brother but then stopped when he saw Phillip. He swears that he never set out to harm Graem.

Definitive action will remove the President. Lennox knows that this is necessary, but he is torn that the situation has resorted to this.

3:57 P.M.

:eek: Seriously?! Ooo now that would be a good twist - Assad sacrificing himself for the President! That would work for the peace process!

Someone must find Lennox or Lennox must be able to raise the alarm somehow mustn't he?! Although, he knows what he is getting himself involved in from the start (last week he knew exactly what was being suggested) so he's only himself to blame in a sense.

Charles is back! Can Martha and Aaron be far behind?

Lennox sees that he is tied up near the pressure valves on the boiler room pipes. As Carson is distracted, Lennox manages to twist one of the knobs with his foot. The pressure on the gauge rises and an alarm sounds. Carson runs over and turns the valve back to normal. He threatens to kill Lennox if he tries anything like that again.
4:58 P.M.
Reed excuses himself to the President in order to check on Lennox. Reed waits outside the broadcast room so he has full view of what’s going on inside. Although his hands are shaking, he plugs the password into the PDA and activates the bomb.
4:59 P.M.
Assad, who is at the podium, notices some brown fluid dripping. He leans in and sees a red light blinking on the cassette recorder. Assad yells “Bomb!” and darts from the podium. A Secret Service agent quickly lunges in front of Wayne as the podium explodes. More agents run into the room after the blast. They push aside the various bodies, including Assad, and find the President bloodied and unconscious. They summon medical teams. Reed walks away from the melee quietly.

:eek: :eek:

This just keeps on getting better!!! I hope Wayne P pulls through ok.

Do you think that Lennox was really against it the whole time Kath, or not...I'm not sure on that one to be honest...:hmm:

I think Lennox was for over-ruling Wayne Palmer and possibly supporting a coup to force him to stand down, similar to what Mike Novack tried to do to David Palmer in season 2. I think he is too much of a coward to be involved in the assisnation of the president. But with 24 you never know what they have got up their sleeves the characters change from good to evil in the space of an hour.

What I am thinking, was like Lennox was double checking with Reed what they were talking about, so was aware of what they were going to do...was he truly wanting to be involved in the assassination, was he trying to get insider knowledge for his own gain/thanks etc or was he really that naive to think that they wouldn't actually go through with it.

Mind you, I can't get past him being John Cage in Ally McBeal - I can still see him in the bathroom singing Barry White songs into the mirror :rotfl: :rotfl:

Reed pulls the gag from Lennox’s mouth and defends his own actions by quoting Lennox’s urging of extremism. He says that Vice President Daniels will implement Lennox’s security plan, but if Lennox implicates them then the plan will be harder to push through. No one will ever believe him if tells the truth.

Martha, who is in handcuffs, cannot understand why she is being condemned. She calls Logan one of the biggest criminals in history.

Pierce is back!!! :cheer: :cheer:

OMG - my heart is pounding reading this just as much as it was on Sunday night watching it!!

Martha and Aaron are together, brilliant:cheer: . So Martha loses it with her ex , who hasn't? Though stabbing him was a bit of an overreaction.

I wonder if Logan will survive though....especially as he crashes in the ambulance...Martha will go down for a long time for doing that - so not worth it!

Hopefully he will, 24 doesn't do happy endings usually, so maybe Martha and Aaron will get a break and drive off into sunset together, Just had scary thought would Aaron take the fall for Martha?
