Raj goes with his container of the influenza virus. He knows this will mean his own death, but he will do what he must to protect his people from genocide.
.
At the White House president Bartlett confers with Leo over the death of the qumari ambassador.
.
Bartlett: Did the ambassador have his files on him when he died?
Leo: D.C. police says there were no files in his car. You think perhaps the prime minister wasn't too happy with his cooperation?
Bartlett: That's a distinct possibility. Another is that one of our own people murdered him.
Leo: The files were redacted, no way they could have identified our agents with it.
Bartlett: Perhaps someone didn't want to take that chance. I'll call the prime minister again, try and feel out whether he already knows about his ambassador's murder.

At CTU Tony Almeida begins interrogating Jamey Farrell.
.
Tony: What exactly did you do for the terrorists?
Jamey: Nothing. I would never betray my country.
Tony: So they gave you three hundred thousand out of the goodness of their heart?
Jamey: I have no idea where that money came from.
Tony: So if I were to go to your home, I wouldn't see a nice car, fancy furniture, stuff like that.
Jamey: You might.
Tony: Explain that.
Jamey: My boyfriend drives a ferrarri, he lets me drive it. He bought some toys for my son Kyle, jewelry for me.
Tony: I admit, I'm not an expert on women's fashion. But I'm comfortable with Michelle Dessler's opinion that your jewelry is real. So who is this generous boyfriend?
Jamey: Ira, I don't know his last name.
Tony: If you want to cut a deal for less prison time, I'd recommend you start being straight with us.
Jamey: I found the account, why would I lead you to me?
Tony: My guess, you knew you were about to get caught, so you figured your best play was to find it, and claim you had no knowledge of the money.

George Mason is watching the interrogation throught closed circuit television when Michelle Dessler comes into his office.
.
Michelle: You wanted to se me sir?
Mason: Yes. President Bartlett has authorized a security liason from Qumar, Yusef Auda, to come to CTU to help in our investigation. Officially mr Auda is an intelligence agent entitled to our full cooperation. Unofficially, I don't want him to see anything he doesn't need to see. Make sure anyone you assign to this understands that.
Michelle: Yes sir. There's something else. The shell company that put this money into Jamey Farrell's account, it was done this morning, at 8:37am.
Mason: Whats your point?
Michelle: It just seems a little odd that they'd wait until today to pay her for, services rendered.
Mason: Not really, they wanted to make sure she fulfilled her end of the bargain first. I know it's hard to believe that one of our own betrayed us. But let's assume that the terrorists are on a budget. Why would they give her that much money without getting something in return?
.
Jack Bauer and Vic Mackey confer about the situation with Raphael.
.
Vic: Turns out the Aryan Brotherhood have gone underground. Whatever these terrorists are planning, the neo-nazies want in. These other gangs are just hired muscle, the Aryan Brotherhood are true believers.
Jack: Makes sense. So how do we find them and the russian scientist?
Vic: Right now Raphael is calling a meeting with the other gang leaders. Hopefully one of them knows.
Jack: So what's the plan. We arrest all of them and hope someone talks?
Vic: Something like that.
