8:00 A.M.-8:10 A.M.: FBI officers arrive at the scene outside Richard's house. They scour the entire house and find Richard curled up in a corner crying that they took his father and sister.

Audrey and Heller are transported to another van. Driscoll briefs her staff that Heller was kidnapped. Chloe proceeds to focus on the kidnapping rather the train bombing a hour ago. As Jack tries to work the phones to get Secret Service involved, Driscoll has him arrested for torturing a Sherak.

President Keeler phones Driscoll to inquire about Heller. Keeler plans to elevate the terror threat level, as Andrew rides his bike on the streets and calls his mother. He wants her to get out of the house. She wants to know what's going on, so he tells her about the killings at his office. As she frantically packs her bags, one of the hitmen, Kalil, is standing outside the window, watching her.

Chloe goes to see a detained Jack with information that could help find Heller, because she doesn't trust Driscoll. She says a friend named Andrew Paige found damaging codes on the Web that originated in Turkey.

Andrew sees a news report on Heller's kidnapping at Union Station. Chloe calls Andrew and he tells her about the murders in his office. Jack cuts in and introduces himself. He tells him he might be targeted by the same people who took Heller. He promises Andrew that he will come and get him at the station. Meanwhile, at the Paige house, Kalil has tapped into Andrew's phone and has listened to the entire conversation. He takes a photo of Andrew from the mantle and steps over the dead body of Andrew's mother.



8:10 A.M.-8:19 A.M.: Kalil calls Navi about the person that compromised their server. Navi instructs him to kill that person. The titanium briefcase contains a device, a significant one, and Navi wants Behrooz to deliver it instead of Dina to a warehouse. Dina agrees a teenager wouldn't arouse as much suspicion.

Jack chides Driscoll for abandoning a CTU investigation of Andrew Paige's claim. Andrew's co-workers are all dead so clearly it's related. Jack is the only one that knows where Andrew is and Jack wants to be reinstated. Jack threatens to tell President Keeler that Driscoll couldn't break Sherak without his help. Driscoll puts Jack under the authority of Ronnie, being an auxiliary agent. After that, Jack will be turned over to Division.



8:19 A.M.-8:31 A.M.: Audrey and Heller are taken from the van to an underground complex. The terrorists remove the blindfolds and gags. James whispers to his daughter to be cooperative. A Turkish man named Omar enters and his men ask if they should kill Audrey. Audrey screams as Heller pleads to leave her alone. Omar uses this to his advantage and opts to wait. They could use Audrey as leverage.

Jack wants Chloe to update him while he goes to meet Andrew. Meanwhile, Ronnie is furious that Jack was released. Driscoll orders him to keep tabs on Jack.

Behrooz prepares to leave with the briefcase and Dina warns him to be careful. Suddenly, his phone rings. Debbie asks why he is avoiding her and if he's seeing someone else. Behrooz cuts her off without explanation. Behrooz promises his mother that he'll take care of Debbie later.

Driscoll summons Chloe and asks why she turned to Jack, and why she didn't pick up the Internet lead after they captured Sherak. Chloe bluntly admits she has more trust in Jack.

Ronnie tells Jack he doesn't agree with Driscoll's orders to bring Jack back but Ronnie informs Jack that he'll stop him cold if he tries to exceed his authority again.



8:31 A.M.-: From Ronnie's car, Jack phones the Defense Department. Ronnie asks why he went to D.C. and Jack says he needed to get a life out of the field.

Audrey and her father wait in the caged cell. He mentions that if Jack had warned them before they were captured, there must be a source and a good chance of survival. Heller tries to make Audrey feel better. Just then, the henchmen come in and demands Heller to undress. Heller says no, so they forcibly undress him.

Behrooz arrives at the compound and hands the briefcase over to Omar's henchmen. Before reaching his car, he sees Debbie spying on him behind some brush. He tells her she shouldn't have followed him, but Debbie was suspicious that he has been seeing someone else. She also thinks his parents don't want them to see other because she's not Muslim. Behrooz promises her to get together later and kisses her goodbye. However, one of Omar's henchman sees them together.



8:42 A.M.-8:53 A.M.: Curtis submits Richard to a lie detector while he is questioned. Richard is furious that he is being treated like a criminal. From a remote screen, Sarah tells Driscoll Richard is telling the truth.

Behrooz returns home and tells Navi that he delivered the briefcase. Navi appears to be pleased, but then slaps Behrooz across the face, because one of Omar's men saw him with Debbie. Despite Behrooz's pleas that she didn't see anything, Navi thinks this will compromise their plans. They've been planning for this for 5 years. Navi orders Behrooz to call Debbie and have her come over.

Jack and Ronnie enter Union Station with MTA police. Meanwhile, Chloe calls Andrew saying that the agents are on-site. Andrew hangs up and Kalil mets him, claiming to be Jack. Kalil takes him away, as Jack and Ronnie meet at the meeting point, but Andrew is gone. Jack calls Andrew's cell phone and Andrew is shocked to hear the real Jack on the phone. Kalil grabs the phone and points a gun at Andrew's chest."Who are you?" Andrew asked. "I'm the man that's going to kill you if you don't follow my instructions," the man replies. Jack knows the terrorists got to Andrew first, so he alerts the authorities to look for him at the station.



8:53 A.M.-9:00 A.M.: One of the MTA officers sees Andrew and Kalil leaving the station to a blue Honda Civic. In the car, Kalil tapes Andrew's mouth shut and drives off. Kalil is stopped at the lot because of construction. Ronnie and Jack rush out and spot Kalil's car. Jack thinks Kalil will lead them to Heller while Ronnie is ready to pounce. Ronnie pulls rank and calls Driscoll but before he can call, Jack throws a punch at Ronnie. Ronnie grabs Jack's arm and throws him on the ground, handcuffing him to a railing. Ronnie radios the cops to pull the Civic over.

Ronnie approaches the car, but Kalil shoots Ronnie in the neck and chest. Kalil escapes while Jack is helplessly chained to the railing. Jack calls out for Ronnie to give him the keys to unlock the handcuff. Ronnie, on the ground, weakly throws the keys at Jack. Jack grabs it and unlocks the handcuff. Ronnie dies as Jack gets in Ronnie's SUV and drives off.

Everyone at CTU watch a broadcast on TV and the Internet showing a bound and gagged Secretary Heller surrounded by men armed with machine guns, wearing Arabic cloths, and an Arabic banner hanging on the wall behind them. One of the men is Omar, saying that Heller will charged with war crimes against humanity, tried for his crimes and executed if found guilty. Omar says,"Because we have nothing to hide, the world will have full access to these proceedings." Heller appears scared.
