This episode of 24 begins with Tony Almeida (Carlos Bernard) and Nina Myers (Sarah Clarke) watching as CTU medics try to revive Jamey Farrell (Karina Arroyave). Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland) calls Nina, who tells him that his wife, Teri Bauer (Leslie Hope) called, but was cutoff. Jack asks Nina for help getting through the police roadblocks. Teri calls Nina with the swiped cell phone. Nina connects Teri to Jack and has Milo Pressman (Eric Balfour) setup a trace. The guard whose phone was taken returns looking for it, so Teri hides the phone, but leaves it turned on.
In their limo, Senator David Palmer (Dennis Haysbert) and his wife, Sherry Palmer (Penny Johnson) argue about how to handle the Maureen Kingsley (Devika Parikh) situation. Chief of Staff Mike Novick (Jude Ciccolella) agrees with Palmer’s method.
Nina tells Jack where they could trace the phone to, but it’s a large area. Jack tells her to narrow the trace as he heads for the area. Tony shows Nina a message Jamey didn’t have time to erase from her system. It references Ted Cofell (Currie Graham), but needs to be decoded. Tony looks up Cofell. The clinic calls – Jamey died.
Nina gets back on the phone and talks to Jack. As they talk, Jack gets pulled over by the police. As they walk to the car, Jack screeches away – with them following. Ultimately, after some tense scenes, Jack evades capture, and steals another car. The guard discovers where his phone is because the battery is low and it beeps. The whole time, Rick has been trying to help Teri and Kim Bauer (Elisha Cuthbert) keep the phone hidden. The trace was not completed. Tony gets on the phone and tells Jack that Cofell is an investment banker – Jack heads to his office.
Andre Drazen (Zeljko Ivanek) calls Ira Gaines (Michael Massee) from his private jet. Andre is upset that Palmer and Jack are still alive. Andre tells Gaines that he will have Cofell empty the accounts if results are not forthcoming. He also mentions that killing Palmer and Jack is a personal family matter.
Sheri calls Carl Webb (Zach Grenier) without Palmer knowing it. She wants the Maureen Kingsley (Devika Parikh) matter handled – however! Webb tells her it’s already being taken care of, but won’t tell her how.
Milo links Cofell to Gaines – and Nina tells Jack. Tony tells Nina Division is sending in Alberta Green (Tamara Tunie) to replace Jack. Then she arrives with her team.
Palmer gets a call from his biggest contributor who tells him that Webb is going to eliminate the problem with Maureen – permanently. The called says he is quitting his support of Palmer and hangs up.
Jack gets to Cofell’s office just as he is leaving for his limo and the airport. Jack knocks out the limo driver and posing as the driver picks Cofell up at the door.
