Key Moments:

• Milo and Marilyn run and hide behind a couple of dumpsters. Phillip’s men arrive and one of them stops to call and update Phillip. He tells him that Jack is dead but they don’t have Marilyn. When he hangs up, he realizes where Milo and Marilyn are hiding. Milo catches on and tells Marilyn to run when he starts firing. He hops up and starts shooting and Marilyn screams and hides. Always remember that 24 hates women. Milo is shot in the shoulder but before they can advance on them, Jack arrives and kills 2 of the men and uses his loud voice to stop the 3^rd man holding Marilyn hostage. He checks Milo’s wound then yokes Marilyn against the wall. She tells him that it was his father. She gives him the real address for the Gredenko house and Jack passes it on to Bill but tells him that he has something personal to handle.
• After more Morris and Chloe arguing, we find out that Morris is a recovering alcoholic. He hears about Milo’s heroism and reacts poorly.
• Jack’s plan is to have Phillip’s man call him and give Marilyn the phone. She forces Phillip to tell her where he is holding Josh because she wants to see him. Josh listens in and realizes that his grandfather is not a good man and tries to escape. No such luck.
• Lennox delivers the itinerary to Reed. The plan is to kill Wayne and implicate Assad.
• Wayne calls Lennox and tells him he wants his help on Assad’s speech. Lennox is taken aback that Wayne still wants to work with him.
• Morris is at the package store struggling with his desire to have a drink. He buys some whiskey and takes it into the alley to have a drink. He immediately throws it up.
• Jack and crew arrive at the parking garage of the hotel. He gives Marilyn a bulletproof vest to wear.
• Lennox finishes with Wayne and heads back to Reed. Reed needs him to clear Carson through security. Lennox tells him that he is on it but tries to contact Secret Service instead. Reed knocks him out before he can complete the call.
• Chloe smells the alcohol on Morris’ breath but he begs her not to report him. He threw it up!
• CTU assaults the Gredenko house and they find nothing.
• Jack leads everyone into Phillip’s room but it is empty. Phillip calls the hotel phone and is holding Josh at gunpoint at the adjacent building. Jack offers him an immunity deal but when that doesn’t work offers himself for Josh. Phillip agrees. Jack knocks out the thug and takes Marilyn to the exchange.
• Milo also smelt the alcohol but Chloe says she is handling it.
• Jack leaves Marilyn in the stairwell with a gun and heads out to meet his father. He walks across the roof and enters another room and shows that he is unarmed. Phillip walks out of the shadows and sends Josh towards Jack and on to his mother. Phillip explains to Jack that Gredenko found out about the family’s involvement in David Palmer’s assassination. He used that as leverage to gain access to the bombs. He uses the old standby of being a “patriot”. Jack sees right through that and Phillip compliments him on his intelligence but insults him for being a civil servant. Phillip puts Jack in the execution position. Jack explains himself to his father; he never wanted to turn his back on his family, he just wanted to go his own way. When he finishes his speech, the bullet never comes and he turns around to find Phillip gone. He exits to the roof and finds Phillip’s phone. There is number on it and Jack calls and look at that Charles Logan picks up. He tells Jack to come and see him.
