At CTU Yusef Auda asks George Mason about the glitches in his computer. Mason says that a number of computers have been malfunctioning since the mandatory lockdown, after Jamey Farrell's arrest. Yusef knows Mason is lying, but it is admittedly a good lie. Yusef thinks that George Mason would do well in american politics. Mason recieves a call from CTU medical. He then calls secretary Hellar.
.
Mason: You were right, it was a placebo.
Hellar: Thank you George.
.
Hellar then nods to the security guards. They surround Richard Walsh.
.
Walsh: Is something wrong mr secretary?
Hellar: We know.
Walsh: Know what?
Hellar: We know that the terrorists injected your daughter Victoria with a substance.
Walsh: I'm sorry sir, but it was my daughter's life.
Hellar: The test results showed her negative for any virus.
Walsh: But she said she was experiencing the symptoms.
Hellar: Symptoms like rapid heart-beat, a lot of sweating?
Walsh: Yes.
Hellar: They told her what symptoms to expect, it was just the placebo effect in reverse.
Walsh: How could I be so stupid?
Hellar: It's an effective trick, even on those who should know better.
Walsh: What now?
Hellar: I don't know what conseuences a court of law will deem appropriate for your actions. But for now, the terrorists think you're cooperating, we can use you to give them false intel.
Walsh: Ofcourse, I'll help in any way I can.

Rahul calls his son Raj.
.
Raj: Everything okay dad?
Rahul: You tell me. I found the extremist literature in your room.
Raj: Why would you invade my privacy like that?
Rahul: Not important.
Raj: Anyway, it's just a point of view, one I recognize that you do not share.
Rahul: So you're not involved in any kind of terrorism?
Raj: Ofcourse not. I'm just concerned about our cousins back in Kashmir.
Rahul: Come home, I think we should have a little talk.
Raj: Okay, I'll come over.

As this call between father and son ended, another call began. This was between mercenary Ira Gaines and his associate Mandy.
.
Mandy: What is it Ira?
Gaines: That kid Raj, his father is getting suspicious.
Mandy: What do you want me to do about that?
Gaines: The problem is I'm not sure. We need Raj to do his job, but we can't have his father knowing too much.
Mandy: We kill his father he probably won't be so willing to help.
Gaines: Hence the problem, For now I just need you to go over to their apartment complex, and listen to their conversation.
