When Jack makes his recorded speech, he says "This peace is fraudulent, and I cannot in good conscience allow the people that lost their lives today to go unspoken for. You reminded me of that earlier today. That's who I am." In the closed-captioning it says "Kim, you reminded me of that earlier today."
-
This is the only episode of 24 to end with a clock counting down to 00:00:00 instead of the hour the episode ends at.
-
Yuri Suvarov's signature is in Latin alphabet, not Russian one. Likewise, Dalia Hassan signs her name in also Latin, not Arabic despite her country's Middle Eastern background.
-
If President Taylor can secretly blackmail the IRK leader with the threat of military retaliation, she does not need to support Dalia Hassan's installation to power, request Charles Logan's assistance, censor the press, launch the manhunt of Jack Bauer and order the entire cover up. The events since Omar Hassan's death would not have happened, if she had realized her ability to do so way earlier.
-
Dalia Hassan is confirmed Muslim when she gives President Taylor her husband's pen with Islamic greeting engraved on its box; however, throughout the season she does not adhere to strict Muslim clothing customs.
-
When Jack walks up to the delivery entrance of the hotel where he is about to ambush Logan's motorcade, there's a big trash bin right behind him at the wall to the right. In the last scene of the episode, when Jack is standing outside Novakovich's hotel, the exact same trash bin with the same graffiti on it can be seen behind Jack, this time loaded with trash bags.
-
This would be the second time Jack planted a bug on Logan. He bugged him in Season 5 to get him to incriminate himself. And Jack planted the bug after confronting Logan, which is what he did in Season 5.
-
It can clearly be seen that Charles Logan and one of his guards are not in the limousine when they pull into the tunnel.
-
The press secretary's speech appears to be a recording, or at least it seems like it.
When Logan turns off the TV for the first time, the secretary utters the words: Mrs Hassan.
And when Logan turns the TV on again, the same words are uttered by the secretary.
-
The loop that Arlo made shows Cole sitting in a corner, however, when the loop ends, Cole is standing at the door of the cell. That would easily reveal the loop.
-
When Chloe asks Cole about Jack, she mentions that she only has 90 seconds before Arlo's hack is traced. However, Arlo's earlier text reveals that Chloe is safe for only 60 seconds.
-
When Jack speaks to Chloe, he tell's her to call him back after she finds out where Dana was being moved to, but after ending the call, Jack throws the phone away. How is Chloe supposed to call him back?
-
This would be the first time that Jack Bauer shares a scene with a present or future President in more than one season. He of course met President Taylor in Season 7 and now in this episode.
-
This is the second week in a row the silent clock has been used. This marks the 11th time in the history of 24 this effect has been used.
-
We know the video of Hassan's execution is pre-recorded and we are shown when the broadcast both starts and finishes. Since it plays for 1min 15secs after Jack's rescue until it shows the execution, the tape delay must be at least that long. However it cannot be, because 1 min 15 secs before the tape started broadcasting Samir was still torturing Hassan.
-
The clock at the end of this episode is silent, which often denotes the death of a "good" character in the 24 mythology. It is the tenth silent clock in the series and the first one this season. It is also the first time it commemorates a foreign individual.
-
When Tarin Faroush turns off the timer of the bomb, it stops at 00:07. This is the exact time the bomb in the James Bond movie Goldfinger gets disarmed, which is also a dirty radiological bomb. This is all the more worth mentioning as the Jack Bauer character during the early days of the series was widely regarded as a modern day James Bond.
-
In between the time that Samir says "get the Internet feed ready" and President Taylor begins watching the video, approximately 73 seconds pass. Later, when Jack has found the terrorists' location, the video is on a delay of at least 76 seconds. This is not possible since (based on the moment that Taylor started watching the video) any delay would have to be LESS than 73 seconds.
-
Jack is chasing the SUV on the roof and says "Coming straight at me, damn it!", but in the rear-view mirror can clearly be seen that he actually doesn't say a word.
-
From the window of the conference room which is supposedly at McGuire AFB, a city skyline is visible. However, there is no skyline visible from McGuire AFB, since the nearest major city is Philadelphia, which is over 30 miles away.
