Sherry piques his interest when she mentions that she heard military personnel have been evacuated out of Los Angeles. Palmer leaves, telling her to wait.

Yet Palmer suggests that perhaps forces within his own government caused the crash. He orders Lynne to set up an independent inquiry to find out the truth.

1:09 P.M. – Jack vows to Mason that he will put aside his anger and get Nina to disclose everything. He walks into the interrogation room and slaps her Presidential pardon on the table. Nina claims that she needs to be sent to Visalia because her contact there will only tell her where the bomb is in person. Jack is reluctant to trust her, and demands her contact’s name. Nina, under the assumption that CTU will remove Jack from the case if he harms her, stands her ground. Her smugness only enrages Jack to slams her against the wall. Holding her throat, he threatens to kill her unless she tells him what he wants to know. Watching outside from a monitor, Mason immediately orders Jack removed from the room. He questions Jack’s motives, but Jack says that it is all part of his plan to convince Nina that he is putting his own revenge ahead of stopping the bomb. Mason notices that while Nina is visibly afraid, Jack is completely calm. Jack asks for another five minutes with her, and requests that the thermostat be turned up ten degrees in the interrogation room. Mason agrees to this.

1:21 P.M. – Jack returns to the interrogation room and pulls out a gun. He fires shots into the wall past Nina’s head, demanding a name from her. Jack aims at her head, and she admits that the man in Visalia is Mamud Faheen. Jack already knows that name, and he wants to know what their relationship is. Faheen had introduced Nina to Joseph Wald because Wald wanted her schematics for CTU. Yet Nina refuses to give Jack Faheen’s exact location unless she is permitted to go to Visalia. Her pardon won’t mean anything if she is killed. Jack turns to the video monitor. Watching from outside, Mason orders Michelle to notify the authorities in Visalia.

1:23 P.M. – Lynne learns that military personnel and resources began evacuating an hour ago under Roger Stanton’s orders.

Knowing Sherry’s intelligence was correct, he agrees to meet with her.

As he dresses Megan, Gary apologizes for hurting her and explains that they are leaving. A nurse knocks on the door to inform Gary that he has a phone call at the nurse’s station. He tells Megan not to move and goes to take the call from someone in accounts receivable about his bill. The caller is really Miguel, who stalls Gary so that Kim can slip into Megan’s room. Kim persuades Megan that she is only trying to protect her. When Gary returns to the room, he finds Megan is missing. He angrily alerts the nurse.

1:32 P.M. – Kim, Megan and Miguel rush down the stairwell. Megan begins to cry because she thinks that her father will get mad and hurt her.

Kim, Miguel and Megan hide in an examination room when the security guards block the entrances.

1:35 P.M. – Palmer enters his retreat where Sherry is waiting. She won’t reveal how she learned about the military evacuation, but asks to allow her to help him. Sherry tells Palmer that she still loves him, but she needs to know what he is up against so she can be of some assistance. Palmer realizes that he needs all the help he can muster, and he discloses that there is the threat of a nuclear strike in Los Angeles. Sherry is stunned, and admits that a high level staffer at the Defense Department told her about the evacuation because members of the administration are allying against Palmer for control of his presidency.

Waiting for Miguel, Kim and Megan duck behind cars in the hospital parking but are spotted by Gary. He threatens to throw Kim in jail unless she turns over his daughter. She refuses. Gary grabs Kim’s hair and is about to strike her when Miguel appears and body slams Gary. The men fight, and Miguel knocks Gary out cold with a roundhouse martial arts kick to the face. They grab Gary’s keys and run for his parked car nearby.
