Key Moments:

  • Macer is treating Jack who can’t speak because of his seizure. When Renee shows up, Jack is able to stutter out Tony as the bad guy. It is too late to save the 2 FBI agents Tony shoots to steal their SUV. Jack is beating himself up for trusting Tony and vouching for him. The dead agents are discovered and Jack says Tony is gone.
  • Tony arrives at a motel where Galvez is waiting for him. Galvez wants his money first before handing over the canister. The money is confirmed and Tony is given the bag. But when Tony opens the bag it just has telephone books and Galvez has a gun on him. Tony tosses the bag at him and beats the shit out of Galvez.
  • Woods tells Taylor that Hodges survived his suicide attempt and they found Hodges’ real lawyer dead. When Renee calls with Tony’s actions, Taylor offers up Hodges’ ramblings and suicide attempt as an explanation. She warns Jack that he still can’t torture Hodges but Jack says they can fake his death for him.
  • Cara arrives at the motel and we see that Tony has killed Galvez. Tony got the canister location out of him. He offers up a new plan of going on the attack with the bioweapon. He tells her to contact her shadowy group with his idea.
  • Oliva and Allison argue over Hodges being given a deal. Blah.
  • Cara offers Tony’s plan to the shadowy group. When she can’t get an agreement, Cara contacts Alan directly and pushes for him to support the plan. This works. Tony and Cara make out because all evil chicks have a sexy side on 24.
  • Jack and Renee arrive back at the FBI and Janis leads them to Hodges. He is pleading to die. Jack heads in and offers the deal. He tells him that if he doesn’t agree Jack will toss him out on the street so his family will be killed in retribution. Hodges starts detailing the group’s plans. They were going to use the bioweapon in a domestic attack and frame a Muslim group. Jack pushes for names but Hodges doesn’t know any. Jack calls Renee and pretends to be talking to the Washington Post. Hodges says that he only dealt with Cara. Jack leaves the room and tells Taylor that an attack is imminent. In order to find the Muslim group that will be targed, Jack tells Taylor that they need the CTU servers. Taylor agrees and Jack calls Chloe. He confirms that Bill is dead and then says he needs her help with the CTU data. She is sad but agrees. She hugs Prescott and wakes up Morris to tell him to get the hell out of DC.
  • Its Day 3 all over again as Jack is all sweaty and injecting himself. He briefs the FBI agents on their plan. Janis immediately bitches about using CTU tactics. Renee blows her off. Jack greets Chloe with a hug but doesn’t tell her why he is sweating and fucked up. He tells her about Tony and pushes her to agree that she is with him on pursuing Tony. She is reluctant but comes around.
  • Tony and Cara arrive at their patsy’s location.
  • The Al-Zarian brothers are randomly having a meal in the complete middle of the night and discussing the day’s events.
  • Tony and the gang head in.
  • Olivia calls Martin and we find out that he is the man she turns to for her real dirty business.
  • Janis is still bitching about CTU infecting their pure FBI world. Jack flips out on her but while berating her he thinks David Palmer is still President … don’t we all Jack don’t we all.
  • Tony moves into the apartment. Hamid is knocked out and Tony puts his gun on Jibraan.
