Previously on 24.

There's no chance that this bomb is ever gonna go off.

We have a special ops team following it every step of the way.

Jack Bauer found the Coral Snake commandos.

All six members of the team had been killed.

There's something that you haven't told me.

Ask Sherry. She's the one you want to talk to.

My father works for the government. He said that someone's...

gonna detonate a nuclear bomb in Los Angeles today.

I'm gonna show you something.

What is it? A bomb shelter.

- It happened. - The bomb went off?

The radiation-- we got to get down below before it's too late.

Hello. Marie, there has been a change of plans.

- Why? What's going on? - Marie, our mission depends on you now.

I'm counting on you.

They're a rogue unit, Jack, acting on their own authority.

- How do I find them? - Somewhere at the airport there.

Our best bet is still you getting past them to the bomb.

There is a nuclear warhead somewhere on site.

There it is! Go! Go!

Put your hands above your head! Keep them there!

This isn't a bomb. It's been rigged to look like one.

This is not the bomb. This is a decoy.

I repeat, we are still looking for the nuclear device.

The following takes place between 9:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m.

Okay, let's go easy with this.

All right. We got it. Let's go.

Out of the way.

Let's go. Inside. Come on.

You're gonna have to process all of the prints here.

Bring in your mobile equipment. We don't have time to send anything back. You!

Where's the real bomb? Where's the real bomb?

Do you understand me?

Do you speak any English?

Do you speak any English?

Secure him and search him. I'll get us a translator. Yes, sir.

This is Jack Bauer. I'm requesting a translator at Hangar 21.

I repeat, I am requesting a translator at Hangar 21.

Mr. Mason, we finally got through to Jack Bauer. He's on line two.

Good. - George.

Yeah, uh, how's the search going over there, Jack?

Still no new leads on where the bomb is.

What about that plane you found the decoy in?

It's clean. I need you to use reverse-time satellite.

Try and trace the plane back to its original location.

That's where they would have loaded the decoy bomb.

See if you can find out who the players are from there. Here and here.

George, you with me?

George. George, can you hear me? Are you all right?

Yeah. George.

Yeah, I'm on it. Re-- Reverse-time satellite. Yeah.

George, I am really sorry about everything that's happened to you today. I am.

But if you can't think clearly, you need to step

aside and let someone else take over command.

We need someone in command now. There isn't anybody else, Jack.

What about Tony?

I've got it together. I can handle it, all right?

Yeah, okay. We do have another problem.

What? The six dead commandos you found.

Well, turns out there was a seventh. He may have escaped.

That would make sense. I examined all of their gunshot wounds.

Three definitely knew who the shooter was.

Their wounds were front entry at close range.

The other three showed signs of a struggle,

which would indicate they had time to react.

So, the seventh didn't escape. Right, he was the shooter.

I gotta go. Get me an I.D. on the seventh commando as soon as you can, okay?

Yeah. I'm working on it. Good.

- What do you got? - A wallet, some cash, no I.D., no credit cards.

The son of a bitch wants to talk. Where the hell is my translator?

Mr. Warner, It's your daughter, Kate.

Kate? Dad?

Kate, where are you?

I'm fine. I'm at an airport. The airport?

What, are you leaving the city?

No, not yet. I'm helping one of the agents on an investigation.

Dad, did they tell you about Reza?

Yeah, I-- I can't believe what they're saying about Marie--

That she's with these t-terrorists. That she killed Reza. I--

- I know, Dad. - Kate?

Hold on a second. It wasn't the bomb. We arrested the pilot.

I need your help as a translator.

Uh, Dad, I'm going to have to call you back.

- Are you okay? - Yeah, I'm fine.

Um, Dad, I-I love you.

I love you too, sweetheart.

What exactly did Roger Stanton tell you?

Sherry was somehow involved in this.

A nuclear threat?

He didn't elaborate.

That's all he said.

David, they said it was urgent. Is it about the bomb?

Have they found it? Not yet. Sit down.

I just spoke with Roger Stanton. He confesses

that he's known about the bomb for weeks.

For weeks? Why would he withhold that from you?

He said he wanted to wait until the bomb was on U.S. soil before he intercepted it.

So he knows where the bomb is.

Well, the men he had tracking it did.

But they're all dead.

The bomb's still out there, and we don't know where it is.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Am I telling you something you already know?

- What? - Tell me now.

Have you done the unthinkable and put yourself in league with Roger Stanton?

That's outrageous. Of course not.

- What did he say? - Sit down.

Dav-- Sit down!

He said that you were involved-- that you were working against me.

Well, he's lying, David. I never even met Roger Stanton until this afternoon.

- I know that's not true. - Well, then he's playing you.

Whatever he's doing, he's doing it so that you will believe that--

Just stop it!

Sherry,

right now we are teetering on the brink of a war...

that will lead to the deaths of millions of people.

We have to stop this disaster today, right now,

before it begins.

If there is something you're not telling me--

anything that could help us find this bomb--

as president of the United States, I order you--

No, no. As someone that you claim you love--

I'm asking you.

Help me, Sherry.

I got a phone call...

a few months ago, in the middle of the night,

from a friend of mine who's...

high up in N.S.A.

He told me that Roger Stanton wanted...

to speak to me first thing in the morning,

and so--

so we met at a park in Virginia.

- What did he want? - He wanted to recruit me.

To do what?

He wanted to know...

who was loyal to you and who could be turned.

He wanted--

He wanted to know where you were weak.

And you told him.

Yes.

But I only did it to gain his confidence.

I was not aligning myself with him.

I was doing it for you.

David. David, I know you don't believe me,

but just give me 30 minutes, David.

Just 30 minutes to prove to you that I'm telling the truth.

That-- That I did all of this to protect you...

not to hurt you.

I think he's saying he did it for his family. They promised them money.

Ask him who "they" is.

Syed Ali. Syed Ali.

Ask him if he knows about a second bomb.

Eh?

No, I don't think that was right. Um--

I think we have different dialects.

It doesn't matter. Just keep trying.

Jack, the translator's here.

Jack Bauer. Melinda Kale.

The subject's there. Kate?

I'm really sorry, Jack. You did great. You did great.

Agent Baker's gonna take you back to the controlled area.

I'll be back there as soon as I can.

Ask him if he knows about a second bomb.

He said he doesn't know anything.

I.D., please. Let me see your I.D.

Who are those people over there?

They're locking down the airport, checking everyone.

Excuse me for one second.

I don't care about school. I want the name of the sponsor on his visa.

I can't believe the bomb went off.

What did you hear? How many people?

I don't know. The transmission just went dead.

You going to be okay?

My dad, I need to get in touch with my dad.

We will. But for right now,

we have to stay down here where it's safe.

We have no idea which way that radiation cloud is going to travel.

I'm going to see if I can pick something up on the shortwave radio, okay?

All talk radio, all the time, 24-7.

Well, looks like the school voucher debate...

is really beginning to heat up here in--

What did they say?

I couldn't get anything. The radiation is interfering with the antenna.

It could be hours before we're able to pick up anything.

What's going to happen to us?

Shh, it's okay.

I'm scared. Don't be scared.

You got nothing to be scared of. We're safe down here. I promise.

You must be the new systems op Division sent.

Carrie Turner. You must be George Mason.

Excuse me.

You look worse than I expected.

Something I can help you with?

No, I'm pretty much set.

I've been following everything from Division.

I'll be taking over Paula's responsibilities...

so if there's anything you need the server to do, I'll make it happen.
