3:03 P.M.-3:07 P.M.: In the underground bunker, Roger asks Lynne about Sherry's security clearance. Sherry gets off the phone with the network Ron Wieland works for, then goes to Palmer to ask him about the missing reporter. She offers to talk to Ron about breaking the story. Palmer refuses at first, but later agrees to let her do so. Kimberly, Miguel and Megan are brought back to LA.



3:07 P.M.-3:09 P.M.: At the store in Visalia, the interrogation of Faheen is failing, as Faheen is uncooperative. Nina speaks to Faheen in his native Arabic, with a translator at CTU translating their conversation into English. Jack tries to take Nina and Faheen back to LA by himself. When the other CTU agents refuse, Jack fights back, prompting his colleagues' guns to be drawn.



3:13 P.M.-3:18 P.M.: Ralph's boss Paul Koplin arrives at the Warner house to help Kate hack her father's computer in order to find out what dealings, if any, Bob's company has had with Ali.

Sherry is escorted to the conference room where Ron Wieland is being kept. Sherry begins talking to him. She offers him the exclusive right to report from the Operation Center in exchange for his promising not to reveal anything about the bomb rumors he had threatened to discuss.



3:18 P.M.-3:22 P.M.: The delivery truck carrying the bomb experiences a blow out, causing it to lose a tire. The trio of terrorists inside, Omar, Marko and Basheer, must act quickly to change it. A passing motorist pulls over to offer them assistance.

On the plane, Nina attempts to convince Faheen to talk. He simply replies with, "I'm not afraid to die," and calls her a traitor. Nina examines the half a gift card she took from Crescent Collectibles and hid in her coat. She reveals that she was approached by Faheen six months prior to her arrest.



3:27 P.M.-3:29 P.M.: The friendly motorist finishes changing the tire. He refuses the money offered by the terrorists. Marko, the driver, sees a group of children playing basketball, and begins to have second thoughts.

The police officer asks Kim if a bomb is going off in LA in an effort to find out about the danger she refuses to elaborate on. When he tries to confirm it with the FBI, the dispatcher informs him that she has been unable to reach anyone at the FBI all day, due to increased traffic on their lines.



3:29 P.M.-3:31 P.M.: Sherry reveals that Ron refused her deal. She then asks her ex-husband if she can stay in the loop. Palmer agrees, but promises her nothing in return for her help.



3:31 P.M.-3:33 P.M.: Marko begins to cry, as he has become very uncomfortable with the arrangement. He announces that he doesn't want to kill anyone. Basheer, the man in the passenger seat, pulls a gun, and shoots him multiple times. Basheer then goes around to get in the drivers seat, but Marko, who is still barely alive, shoots him dead before dying himself. There is now just Omar left.



3:37 P.M.-3:40 P.M.: Paul learns that Reza has taken $450,000 from the corporate accounts. Around the same time, a check for the same amount was written to Ali by Reza. Paul finds a file in Bob's personal directory that appears to be a government file that is accessed daily. When he tries to access it, an auto-delete program starts to wipe the hard drive. He is able to stop the deletion, and discovers the files are government-encoded.



3:40 P.M.-3:43 P.M.: Tony walks into the holding room where Bob Warner has been housed. Bob proceeds to tell him that he is a consultant for the CIA. He gives Tony a business card with a confirmation code and a contact name at the CIA, and says that he was recruited five years ago, but knows nothing of Ali. Tony leaves to investigate Bob's claims. The police call CTU to inform them that they are holding Kim Bauer for murder. Mason takes the call.



3:43 P.M.-3:47 P.M.: Michelle calls Jack to tell him about the phone call regarding Kim's arrest. She gets on the line and tearfully tells her father how she got in that situation. Jack puts her crisis on the back-burner, as he's too caught up in what's going on between Nina and Faheen. Nina tells Faheen that US Forces have stormed his village and arrested his family. Jack asks Nina what Faheen told her. She says, "Everything," before lunging forward and slitting Faheen's throat with the cut gift card she had stashed in her sleeve. Jack tries to stop her, but is too late. Faheen dies. Nina announces that she knows where the bomb is, and demands that they take her to San Diego. Mason gives in to her terms.



3:51 P.M.- 3:54 P.M.: Checking the tapes of their chat, Michelle finds a new name mentioned, a name tied to Ali: Marko. The police officer that arrested Kim and Miguel demands to know what is going on. She finally tells him about the bomb, worried that he will send Megan back to LA if she doesn't.



3:54 P.M.-3:56 P.M.: Michelle is unable to find anything else in the recording. Tony sends her to take a few minutes to relax and regroup. The President gets up and goes to the OC just in time to see Wieland on the news, reporting on an imminent threat to the US that he claims the President knew about. An infuriated Palmer demands to know from Mike how Wieland got out. All fingers point to Richard Armus, who was supposed to be watching him.



3:56 P.M.-4:00 P.M.: Paul and Kate leave the Warner house. Kate is left with more questions than answers. Before the pair can get to Paul's car, they are attacked by two men who drug them and throw them into a van. A bitter Jack tells Nina about the last Sunday he and Teri spent together, when an explosion rocks the jet, sending it out of control.

Tick, tick, tick...
