24 s01e24 Episode Script

Right now terrorists are plotting to assassinate a presidential candidate.
My wife and daughter have been targeted and people that I work with may be involved in both.
I'm Federal Agent Jack Bauer and today is the longest day of my life.
We will.
Maybe you're right.
Maybe she drowned.
It does not matter as long as Bauer believes his daughter is here.
Stop! Stop, please! At this time, we do not have any information as to the cause of the explosion that killed Senator David Palmer.
Do you have any idea what's going on out there? Since no one has seen a body the media is circulating all kinds of rumors.
I will tell them as soon as I have confirmation that Jack Bauer's daughter is safe.
And then what, David? You're going to play dead and I'm supposed to hide here and play the grieving widow? Just how long do you think we can keep that charade up? For as long as we have to.
That's crazy! Mike, tell him how crazy it is.
He listens to you.
Don't put me in the middle.
What, isn't that your job, to be in the middle? For crying out loud, Mike.
It's your career on the line, too.
You came clean on TV today.
You got lucky.
But it could just as easily have gone the other way.
Testing the public's patience like that? You won't be lucky again, David.
Listen to me.
Jack Bauer saved my life today.
Not once, but twice.
I realize that and I am sympathetic to what he-- - I don't think you are! - I am.
Listen to me-- No! I am going to respect his request and so are you.
You will not sacrifice his daughter.
- Anything new? - I'm just going over the intel from Langley.
I mean about Jack.
CTU, Almeida.
I assume you still haven't heard anything from him.
Not yet.
George.
I've got Highway Patrol on Line 7.
They picked up a girl at the port, says she's Jack's daughter.
Patch it through.
This is George Mason, CTU.
Who am I speaking with? Sergeant Devlin, Highway Patrol.
I hear you have a young woman with you.
Claims she's the daughter of your agent.
- Jack Bauer? - That's right.
Can I speak with her, please? Hello? Kim, this is George Mason at CTU.
How are you? Okay? Yes.
Tell my father that I've escaped or he'll go there and they'll kill him.
Can you tell us where these people are, Kim? The port.
I don't know exactly.
- May I speak with the Sergeant? - Okay.
We picked her up near Dock 11 Alpha.
Send two tactical teams.
Highest priority.
Have law enforcement establish a perimeter.
Where are you now, Sergeant? North of the harbor.
All right, get Kim over here ASAP, all right? We've got to find Jack before he walks into a trap.
We need to coordinate two.
Yes.
What's taking so long? I just got here.
Where exactly? Don't worry.
I'm close enough.
Where's my daughter? - She's right here.
- Put her on the phone.
Come to the parking lot of the freight office.
I'll come out with her.
Let me speak to her first.
There's been enough talking.
After what's happened today, you expect me to trust you? We know you lied about Palmer being dead so don't talk about trust, all right? Just get down here now or I'll kill her myself.
Trust that.
I'm not going to show myself until I speak to my daughter first.
Don't test me.
Bauer! He's not coming.
He's coming.
Nina, what's the ETA on the TAC teams? Five on the Alpha, eight on the Beta.
Myers.
Nina, it's me.
Where are you? Listen carefully.
I've just confirmed that someone at CTU is feeding the Drazens information.
Based on what? They know that Palmer wasn't killed.
Who at CTU had clearance for that kind of intel? Besides me, just Tony, Mason and Chappelle.
One of those three is working for them.
You need to find out which one.
Okay.
But Jack, what are you doing? Where are you? Andre agreed to a trade, me for Kim.
Are you just going to walk right up to them? If I can guarantee Kim's safety, yes.
Nina, there's a chance that I won't be able to see this thing through.
Until you know who's giving the Drazens information don't trust anyone.
I've got to go.
I don't think the situation will require much spin as long as you do what you've been doing all along.
- Tell me again what I've been doing, Mike? - Telling the truth.
And tearing my family apart in the process.
As hard as it's been for everyone I think this last day has been about finding out who you really are not just as a candidate.
Yeah.
Mike, turn on the TV.
What is it, Mike? A reliable source from inside Palmer's campaign confirmed just moments ago the Senator was unharmed by the blast.
Damn it! What is still uncertain is why the Senator has not made a statement.
Sherry.
David.
We have to deal with the press, David.
David! You couldn't wait to leak it to the press, could you? - David, I - It was you! What were you thinking? They already knew.
Damn it, Sherry! The way you keep defying me! I'm not defying you, I am protecting you! Protecting me from what? - Mike! - Back off, David.
I mean it.
- Get off me.
- I mean it! Get off me! Back off! David! You have to talk to the press, now.
The longer you take to make a statement, the more control you give up.
Damn it! If that child dies! - Yes? - It's me.
I'm busy.
What's happening? They found his daughter.
She'll be here within the hour.
- Does Bauer know? - No.
Not yet.
I'm the only one in contact with him.
I've been ordered by CTU to send in two teams.
- They're on their way.
- All right, hold on.
They found the girl.
Bauer doesn't know.
The CTU people are already on their way.
We have to get you out of here.
He won't come if we can't produce the girl.
He's not stupid.
Father, we barely have time to get to international waters.
I can't risk you getting captured again.
Give me the phone.
Can you contact Bauer? Yes.
You tell him his daughter is dead.
Her body was found floating in the harbor.
- You think he'll come after you? - Yes.
You'll have to kill him.
No mistakes.
If he finds out I've lied to him, my cover will be blown.
Of course we will kill him.
That is the point.
He's coming.
Andre? No.
It's me.
- Come back to CTU.
- I can't.
I'm running out of time.
I'm going to get Kim now.
I don't know how to tell you this.
What is it, Nina? Coast Guard Cutter answered the APB we put out on Kim.
- They found her body, Jack.
- What? I'm sorry.
She's dead.
No.
I'm so sorry.
Jack? What if Bauer doesn't come? He may be too crushed by the thought of his daughter's death.
That is exactly why he will come.
Believe me.
I know.
Go! Hurry, Father, get to the boat.
It has come to my attention that misinformation was given to the press.
And again, I apologize for the misunderstanding.
As you can imagine, this has been a very chaotic situation.
But I appreciate the confidence the voters have continued to show for our campaign.
We regret that false information has been broadcast regarding this incident.
But, thankfully, no one was hurt.
My family and I are safe, and we have no intention of letting this slow us down in any way.
Are you coming here to lecture me, Mike? Lecture you on what? About how I'm not being supportive enough for David.
Actually, I'm on your side this time.
I think David was hurting himself with this charade.
Maybe it's good you leaked the truth to the press.
I want to know what this entire day has done to his campaign.
I think we should run some focus groups first thing in the morning.
I've already called Robin over at ASl.
Okay, good.
Do you think David should cancel his trip to Dallas, go back to Washington? I don't know, Sherry.
I think David should make that call.
No, I don't.
David's in no frame of mind to make critical decisions right now.
It's going to take you and I to steer this thing by ourselves, okay until he gets his head screwed on right.
Listen, Sherry David wanted to meet with you privately when he finished his statement.
David doesn't need to make an appointment to see me.
I'm right here.
He'll be in the ballroom in five minutes.
I've already called the Secret Service.
What's this all about? He didn't say.
If I were you I'd take it as an opportunity to make the first move.
Patch things up.
Make things right.
Fine, Mike.
That's too much.
Tony, get this.
Okay, I'll call you back.
The TAC team got there, but Jack went in without them.
- By himself?.
- Evidently.
Is he all right? He's alive.
- What about the Drazens? - What are you talking about? Dead.
Congratulations, Teri.
Your family's fine.
They're on their way over here now.
Anyway, Karris counts seven down.
Jack's the last man standing.
Want to contact Secret Service.
I'll update Division? I talked to Jack an hour ago.
He said-- Teri, I told you everybody's fine.
Now go in there and celebrate.
Relax.
Nina? Can I help you? Call me when it's time.
Someone is there? - Yes.
- I understand.
- You speak German? - Frankfurt Division.
- Something wrong? - Yes.
I just heard there was some big shoot-out.
No one will tell me what's going on.
Teri, calm down.
Jack and Kim are fine.
They're on their way here right now.
- Are you sure? - Positive.
What about the men that were after Kim and me? They're dead.
You and Kim are safe.
And so is Jack.
Okay.
I just want us all to be back together again, I guess.
It won't be long.
Thank God.
I'm sorry, I still have a lot of work to do.
So if there's nothing else There is, actually.
Um This is a little awkward, Nina, but It's my guess that you still have feelings for Jack, and now that we're together again and we're going to have a baby Teri As soon as this is over, I plan to have myself tranferred out of this office.
- Really? - Yes.
- Oh, Nina, I'm sorry - No need to apologise.
If anything, I appreciate your being honest.
This is Myers.
You're still not alone? That's right.
Listen carefully.
Procedures are in place.
Collect all of your information.
- We have arranged for your extraction.
- Where? The usual pickup point.
Northwest corner.
Is there anything else? That's all right, I know you're busy.
I'll let you get back to work.
I can't let you go.
Not yet.
Move back into the room, slowly.
I said move! Against the wall.
On your knees.
Do it! Officer! The body that you pulled out of the harbor.
That was my daughter.
I'd like to claim the body.
I'm not sure who you mean.
The Coast Guard, they pulled a body out of the harbor.
ln the last hour.
I didn't hear anything, but I just got on duty.
If you'd like, I can call the harbor master.
Hold on one second.
Give me your phone.
Could you call him now, please? Yes, sure.
- Harbor Master's office.
- Frank.
Did you guys pull a body out of the harbor? No, nothing on our patrol.
- You sure? - No reports anywhere.
All right, roger that.
What'd he say? No body's been found in the harbor or anywhere near it.
- Are you sure? - Positive.
Is it possible that another unit picked her up? We cover 50 miles of coastline.
No body was found tonight.
Thanks.
Thank you.
- This is Mason.
- It's Jack.
I don't know whether to congratulate you or demand you resign.
Do you know where my daughter is? Yes, Highway Patrol picked her up about half an hour ago.
She's heading over here under heavy escort.
If you called, I could've told you.
You need to arrest Nina.
I what? She's working against us.
Don't let her out of the building.
Jack, hold on a second.
What's all this about? She told me that they found Kim's body in the harbor.
I confirmed with the Coast Guard.
They never found a body.
She was working with the Drazens to set a trap for me.
Are you sure there wasn't a misunderstanding? - About Kim being dead? - No, George.
She lied.
There was no misunderstanding.
There's no proof either.
It's your word against hers.
I'll get you your proof.
Don't let her out of your sight.
Archives.
Wilson.
Paul.
It's Jack.
I need a copy of the morning security tape between 8:50 and 9:00 am.
in the ITS, when Jamey committed suicide in there.
All right, let me check.
- That's weird.
- What, you got it? Yes, sir.
Except the tape was erased.
When? This morning.
- What about the digital backup? - There's no digital backup for ITS.
There is.
You just need the proper clearance code.
Try C-2-2-7-1-7.
- How long is this going to take? - Just a few minutes.
Get back to me as soon as you can.
Wait a moment, please.
David.
Mike said you wanted to see me.
Yes.
I know we need to talk, but honestly, David, we haven't slept in two days.
Can't it wait until the morning? We've had a rough day.
And, yes, I know that you are very angry with me.
But when we've put this day in perspective you'll realize that I've been acting in your best interest all along.
I'm not angry with you, Sherry.
Good, David.
I feel sorry for you.
You feel sorry for me? You've lost touch with what it is to be a parent a friend a wife.
What? After tonight I don't want to see you again.
- David, will you just - Please.
I've heard it all before.
And I don't care what this may do to my candidacy.
And it's not because I don't want to be President.
I do.
I just don't think you're fit to be the First Lady.
Do you really think that you can just leave me? Don't believe for a second that it's going to be that easy.
Secret Service will take you back to Washington whenever you're ready.
David.
You just don't walk away from me! You can't do this without me! I'm talking to you! - Sorry, ma'am.
- Get your hands off of me.
- Yes? - Jack, it's Paul Wilson.
I got the Jamey interrogation footage for you.
Good, I've got a monitor in my car.
Send it to me so I can take a look at it.
Sure thing.
Oh, my God.
Send this over to Mason, his eyes only, and patch me through to him.
- Mason.
- George, are you in front of your screen? Yes.
What is it? Proof against Nina.
She killed Jamey Farrell.
- Can you see it? - Yeah.
This is unbelievable.
- Where are you right now? - I'm about five minutes out.
Find her, George.
- Where are you? - I'm leaving now.
You have 16 minutes to reach the pickup point.
We're routing you through Munich for three days.
Why Germany? Why can't I come to you directly? I don't know.
These are the instructions.
You need to be untraceable during that time.
Make sure nothing can connect you to Germany.
- Did you hear me? - All right.
I'm leaving now, Teri.
I'm going to lock you in from the outside.
Someone will find you soon.
Everything will be fine.
- Anything? - Nothing.
Ms.
Myers! Put your hands where I can see them! Nina, put your hands on the steering wheel! Jack.
If you kill me, you won't know who I work for.
You think I work for Drazen, but I don't.
I trusted you, Nina.
- I was just doing my job.
- Your job? My wife and daughter almost died today.
How many people that trusted you lost their life today because you were doing your job? Walsh? Jamey? Ellis? How many others? How many people died because of you, Jack? Jack, take it easy.
We need her alive.
