24: Live Another Day - Ninth Season

Previously on 24...

Mark: You don't know what Bauer did to Audrey.

I stood by her for three years, and I brought her back.

As long as she lives,

she'll never hear the name "Jack Bauer."

Something's taking control of my drone!

Get to cover now! Sir, move! Move!

No! No!

Bauer's here.

He shot two protestors and forced his way

inside the embassy, and he got to Tanner.

Don't be afraid.

My name is Jack Bauer.

The technology that was used

to control our drone is gonna be used in

a massive terrorist attack against civilians later today.

The only way that I can stop that attack from happening

is from the data from your flight key.

Bauer has barricaded himself inside the communications room

at the American Embassy.

I've got hostages! Stay back! Close the door now!

Who's taking hostages?

Jack Bauer.

Jack: Mr. President, a hacker by the name of

Derek Yates created an override device which can take

control of as many as ten U.S. drones.

Now I believe that the device is in the hands

of Margot Al-Harazi, a known terrorist.

Last night, I woke up from a nightmare

where I killed all these people.

He says he can't go through with it.

You will pilot the drones.

I will not, no matter what you do to me.

I believe you.

Her left hand.

No! No! - (yelling)

Do it!

Those Marines are gonna come through that door,

and they're gonna kill you.

You can give me the flight key, and I can finish

the upload for you and get it out of here.

Why the hell should I trust you?

Because I really do believe you.

Do not fire! I have Bauer in my custody!

This is a CIA matter now.

You had no right to interfere with this operation.

This embassy is under my jurisdiction, not the CIA's.

If I hadn't stepped in, Bauer would be dead.

Well, he should be. Son of a bitch shot two of my men.

And he managed not to wound either of them.

He is not trying to hurt anyone. He's trying to stop an attack.

Save that for your superiors, Agent Morgan, because this is

going up the chain, and you might as well start

clearing out your desk.

Yeah, well, it's not gonna be the first time today.

Sir, Bauer's clean. The flight key isn't on him.

You stay right here.

Where is it?

Bauer, you took it from the evidence pouch.

You told the president you were trying to download it.

Tell me where it is.

You know where he put it?

No. It must have got lost during your little battle charge.

Get her out of here!

I know the way.

It's Bauer's weapon.

O'Brian, this is Agent Morgan. Do you copy?

Yes. I heard everything you said to Jack. Is he okay?

Yeah, but he's in custody. He's with the Marines right now.

Well, at least he's alive.

Listen, I have the flight key.

What do you need me to do to get you the rest of this data?

Get to a computer with a 4G network,

I'll walk you through the rest.

Okay, copy that. I'll call you when I'm ready.

I can't believe you're in one piece.

What the hell happened in there?

I managed to stop them from killing Bauer.

: No more drones! No more drones!

No more drones! No more drones!

No more drones! No more drones!

You still think Bauer did all this to stop a terrorist attack?

Yes. And if Margot Al-Harazi really has the technology

to steal ten U.S. drones, then we have to move fast,

or a lot of people are going to die.

Assuming you're right, what are we going to do about it?

Nobody believes this is happening.

That's why we have to find proof

that Tanner's drone was hijacked.

Using this.

Tanner's flight key? Tell me you didn't steal it.

Bauer gave it to me. He wasn't able to finish uploading it

to O'Brian before the Marines came in.

- Chloe O'Brian? - Yes. He's using her

to analyze the flight key data.

This is crazy. Well, things are about to get a lot crazier

if we don't stop this attack, so let's move.

Okay, O'Brian, I'm at a computer.

Okay, insert the flight key into the USB port.

It's done. Go ahead.

The encryption program will

automatically restore the link

and resume the upload.

Okay, it's uploading again.

Two minutes before we get it all.

How long after that before you find proof

that the drone was hijacked?

I don't know for sure that we will get it,

but if we do, will you be able to get it to the right people?

Yeah, don't worry about that.

Just get me what I need to convince people

that this attack is going to happen, and I'll do the rest.

I know you're in pain, and I know you're confused.

But the one thing I don't want you to do

is blame yourself.

This was not your fault.

It was mine.

If I'd known what your husband was planning,

I would have acted sooner...

And this wouldn't have been necessary.

Forgive me.

How is she?

She'll recover,

no thanks to you.

A mother should never have to see her daughter

go through something like that.

Just please don't hurt her again.

I'll do whatever you want.

I know you will.

Where are we?

So far, I've set up data-links

with four of the drones.

Once all ten are listening,

we'll transmit the override code.

When will they be ours?

Five minutes.

Margot: If there is any

kind of redemption for you, Naveed,

it begins now.

Adrian: We're more than halfway through this flight key data.

I still don't see anything suspicious, Chloe.

Well, look harder. Jack's headed back to jail because of you.

Yes, I'm aware of that.

- You don't need to keep reminding me. - Yes, I do.

I'm thinking every day for the rest of your life.

Go back. Go back.

Stop. There.

Well done, Yates.

- What? - You don't see it?

If I saw it, I wouldn't have said "What?"

What he's done is,

he's split the override code

into these discreet segments here,

and he's embedded them

in the drone's transponder signal.

Almost impossible to spot... Unless you're me.

There's your override code.

Agent Morgan?

- Go ahead. - Chloe: We've got the override code.

This proves that Tanner's drone was hijacked.

Are you sure?

Yes, I'm sure.

I'm making the screen grabs now.

I'm highlighting them so any decent programmer

will be able to understand what he's looking at.

- Okay, forward them to my phone. - On it.

They get something?

We're about to find out.

Reed.

- Jordan, it's me. - Are you all right?

Yeah. Put Navarro on. You both need to see this.

Sir, it's Kate.

Kate, where are you?

I'm on my way back with Erik.

I just forwarded some screen grabs to Jordan's station.

- Screen grabs of what? - Data off of Tanner's flight key

- from his drone. - Got 'em.

Okay, tell me what you see.

Looks like an override code.

What is that? What are we talking

- about here? - Steve, this is proof

that Margot Al-Harazi commandeered Tanner's drone

and used it to kill those soldiers.

Whoa, whoa, slow down. Are you sure?

Yes, which means there's going to be another attack.

Steve, you have got to alert the president.

Hold on. Listen to me.

I am putting my ass on the line.

You can't have any doubts about this.

I am.

I'm sure. Tanner's drone was hacked.

Mariana,

get me President Heller.

Yes, sir.
