The scoop: Jack is at a secret prison investigating a prisoner who's being brought in, Kim is in jail after being arrested, Teri is with Tony en route to
CTU.
What's up with Palmer: After Palmer's press conference, Sherry, sure that he has destroyed his chance at becoming President, is hostile towards her husband. Later, it is evident from the polls that Palmer's press conference didn't hurt his candidacy and maybe even helped it. Sherry, celebrates with the other campaign supporters, and tries to get Palmer to join in, but he tells her that he no longer trusts her and asks how can he love somebody he doesn't trust. She tells him that even if he doesn't love her, she will not let him leave her and she will be standing at his side when he is sworn into office. Later, at the campaign celebration they put on their obligatory happy and in love husband and wife faces.
What's up with Teri and Kim: After Tony saves Teri, he hurries her, along with a wounded Dr. Phil Parslow, out of the house. Teri is hysterical after remembering the car exploding with Kim inside, until Tony tells her that he has talked to Kim and although they don't know where she is, she is alive. She gets into the van with Tony and attends to Parslow as Tony drives to CTU. Meanwhile, Kim has been arrested for drug dealing and Rick has told her to tell the police everything and that he will back her up. When she is interrogated she tells the arresting officer about the terrorists and who her dad is. She tells him to call CTU and they will vouch for her. He doesn't believe her but he takes the phone number, Kim is then taken to the holding cell where she sits with a crew of not so friendly looking female criminals.
What's up with Jack: Jack has found the location where the Drazen's planned on having the power knocked out. Mark DeSalvo, who is with the Department of Defense, tells Jack that he is at a Class III Detention Facility, basically a high security prison that "doesn't exist." The facility is expecting a highly classified prisoner to be brought in at 7:20pm. Jack tells DeSalvo about the Drazen's vendetta and that they must be prepared for the arrival of the prisoner because for some reason the Drazen's want it stopped. DeSalvo calls for back-up and arms every body that's inside the prison (including civilians) to pose as security. The prisoner is brought in by helicopter without a problem and Jack is determined to find out his identity. DeSalvo refuses to allow Jack to interrogate the prisoner, because the situation is highly confidential. Jack calls Palmer and enlists his help. Palmer assures Jack that he'll work on it and in the meantime Jack tries to uncover the identity of the prisoner. He sneaks into the observation room, turns on the monitor and waits for the prisoner to come into view. DeSalvo catches Jack and tries to stop him, but not before the prisoner turns around. Jack is shocked when he sees that it is Victor Drazen, who he had allegedly killed two years ago. After revealing the whole story to DeSalvo Jack tells him that they must move Victor Drazen before his sons (Andre and Alexis) succeed in breaking him out. While waiting for the official word on relocating Victor Drazen, Jack is authorized to interrogate him. Jack confronts Victor, he asks him to leave his wife and daughter alone and tells him to call off the mission his son's have planned or they will be killed. Victor, appearing confident and hateful towards Jack, says that his son's are soldiers. Finally, DeSalvo is authorized to move Victor and as they are walking him down the hall of the facility the lights suddenly go out and Victor Drazen menacingly says, "They are here."
What's up with Andre Drazen: Andre (who hasn't heard from Alexis and assumes his brother is dead) is with a group of men, planning on storming the prison and freeing his father. Andre and his right-hand man aren't expecting Jack Bauer and the additional security, but believe that as soon as the power is killed, the prison guards will be disoriented and the mission will be a success. When the lights fail to go out, Andre reluctantly decides to hold off. He immediately begins to work on a back-up plan, determined to free his father.
