Eugene Young meets his client John Jackson. Jackson has not been well treated by his captors, but he's alive, for now.

.

Eugene: John Jackson, I'm your lawyer, Eugene Young.

Jackson: Suprised any lawyer had the guts to take this case.

Eugene: I believe anyone has the right to a fair trial. DId you kill Jane?

Jackson: No. Not that it matters.

Eugene: Any idea who did kill her?

Jackson: She was a child-molestor, they often get killed in here. These women, flawed as they are, a lot of them are mothers. They don't want someone like Jane to be freed, who could then molest their kids.

Eugene: But she was killed before the cells were opened.

Jackson: A few inmates are allowed out, mainly for custodial or breakfast duties.

Eugene: And who woud that have included today?

Jackson: Off the top of my head, I'm not sure. But the prison records should show that.

Eugene: A number of papers were burned in the riot, it wouldn't have aroused suspicion for the murderer to have burned the papers to rpotet herself.

Jackson: Than I'm screwed.

Eugene: Maybe not. If we can buy time, it might occur to them that executing you would mean that the National Guard would storm the place, half of them dead, the other half in here for the rest of their lives.

Jackson: Most are in here because they're not that rational.

Eugene: Yeah. But Sherry Palmer is nothing if not self-serving, with her help you might stan a chance.

Jackson: I'll help in any way I can.

.

Jack Bauer recieves a call from his wife, Kate Warner. He suddenly realizes she's already left five messages.

.

Jack: Everything okay Kate?

Kate: No. There's been a riot at Kim's prison.

Jack: Is she okay?

Kate: I don't know.

Jack: Is she part of the riot?

Kate: I don't know. But if she is, then there's no chance of her sentance being commuted.

Jack: I know.

.

Jack worries that, if Kim is in any way participating in the prison riot, Logan and judge Stone might each go back on their word. If that is the case, Jack is prepared to do whatever is neccessary to save his daughter's life.

.

At the prison Marcia is talking with her fellow neo-nazies. They don't like a black woman like Sherry Palmer being the judge, or becoming in control of this riot. They talk of possibly "removing" her from the scene. If John Jackson is somehow aquitted here, Marcia could have the neccessary support. Marie Warner hears of this conversation. What she might do about this is a mystery.

.

Split screens show Eugene conferring with his client, president Logan and chairman Kim continue to discuss the potential treaty, Tony and Nadia continue to try and find Nora, Laura and Anne leave the hospital.

.

Anne and Laura enter their car. As soon as they do, Laura pulls a gun on her friend.

.

Anne: What the hell are you doing?

Laura: You're a traitor to the Knights of Labor.

Anne: No, I'm not.

Laura: Just drive, and there's a chance you'll live through this.
