[NB: You've read the previous dsclaimers. Well, it's the same for the next few chapters. Should save me rewriting it and rewriting it. From now on, the chapters will be pretty shorter than ever, as I'm now just doing quotes and scene summaries.]

Previously on 24...

*Jack Bauer*: (Jack opens the door, and the guy at the door attempts to stab him. After calling the person Arthur, he doesn't know who he is. CTU agents arrive at his apartment to collect the man, but he explains to Kim and Kate that he has to go to CTU himself.)

*Tony Almeida*: (Tony tells CTU agents about a threat to them that will take place today and tomorrow. After we see Milo Pressman being killed, he finds out that ex-CTU agents are also being murdered.)

*David Palmer* (After being told he will win the re-election, David receives news about a threat to CTU where some agents are involved. A man outisde his hotel is killed, and the murderer is revealed to be Nina Myers...)

"The Following Takes Place Between 6.00 pm and 7.00 pm"

===

(We see the alleyway where the Cop was just killed. As Nina exits, she walks past a whole group of police situated where the man she just murdered lies. She joins the crowd around her and pretends to be shocked.)

Nina: (To stranger) "What just happened here?"

Stranger: "Some guy was just walking along and stabbed this dude."

Nina: "When was this?"

Stranger: "I think it's just happened now.."

(Nina continues to walk. She checks to make sure nobody is watching and then enters Palmer's hotel. A man on the other side of the street watches her, and talks into a radio... "She has entered....")

(In L.A, all of CTU watch the news about the stabbing. Tony immediately recognises the victim as Agent Alan Berrego, a man working secutiry for Palmer, and works for CTU, and has done for the past ten years. Tony starts worrying that the threat to CTU is more real than he could possibly imagine.)

(In the back of the van with known terrorist, Arthur Kempsfield, Jack talks with another CTU agent.)

Jack: "When are CTU expecting him?"

Agent: "Well, we've just informed them now, so in about 10 minutes."

Jack: "Can you inform me more about this threat to CTU Tony was telling me about?"

Agent: "I just know as much as you, Jack."

(Tony talks with Palmer on the phone. He tells him about the deaths of Pressman and Berrego. Palmer realises that Burning Fuel is a serious terror group with a serious threat to destroy CTU. However, he cannot do anything as of now, as the Presidential results are announced within the next half an hour. He then turns to Dana.)

Davis: "Dana, I have an important command that I would like you to follow."

Dana: "What's that sir?"

David: "I want you to contact the entire government force. Make sure that there is a layer of protection around anybody who has been a member of CTU in the past five years."

Dana: "CTU?"

David: "There has been a threat on the lives of every working member and ex-member of CTU. Some have been killed today already, and we believe more are yet to come."

Dana: "So, what? Is it just petty revenge?"

David: "About a half hour ago, Alan Berrego was killed."

(Dana is silent)

David: "It is a very serious threat."

Dana: "I'll get on it straight away."

(Dana sets off, But Nina Myers enters the room. She walks down a corridor into the bathroom, where she places a small bomb on the walls of the bathroom. We do not see the timer of when it is meant to go off...)

(Jack arrives at CTU with Arthur Kempsfield. He drags him inside the main office, where Tony meets him.)

Tony: "Hey Jack. Is this him?"

Jack: "Yeah. Arthur Kempsfield. He's lost his memory."

Tony: "How convenient."

Arthur: "What you are saying makes no sense. I do not know who you are or who I am."

Jack: "Yeah? Well what do you know?"

Arthur: "Nothing..."

Jack: "Tony. I want you to bring in the big guns. If this guy ain't remembering, we'll have to make him remember."

Arthur: "Whu.. What do you mean?"

Jack: "Just a serious of tests. Mainy including a lot of pain."

(Arthur is visablly scared.)

(At the hotel, the results are being announced about who will be the President for the next four years. Television camera's and the press are at the occasion. Posters show Republican David Palmer vs. Conservative Dan Rickson. The host stands atop the stage.)

Host: "In the past few years, we have had an idealic President. However, as it is in the constitution, it is time to announce the President of the United States. President Palmer has served an amazing term, and most of the public has seen his reality as a politican, and as a family man. Senator Rickson has some ideas that could make the U.S. a better place. The results of the 2004 U.S. election show that the next President of the United States is..."

(David and Rickson are clearly angst..)

Host: "...Senator Rickson, with 59% of the US Votes!"

(The hotel applauds, as well as David. Dana however, believes it was a fix, as populatiry polls have been in David's favour all day. Just then, a large explosion occurs in the building. People scream...)

(Kate and Kim wait in Jack's apartment.)

Kate: "I'm sure you're father will be back soon.

Kim: "Thats just it. I know he won't be. You heard how serious he was on the phone- I have a feeling the rest of today will be about that guy."

Kate: "The guy Jack got unconscience."

Kim: "Yeah. Dunno what he's doing."

(Kate feels the banana bread she cooked two hours ago.)

Kate: "You want this?"

Kim: "I'm.. not that hungry."

(Suddenly, two masked men enter the apartment through the window. The glass smashes up all over the floor. One of the men hold Kate up, the other points a gun to Kim.)

Terrorist: "Where is Jack Bauer?"

Kim: (Screaming) "Who are you..?"

(The man cocks his gun)

Terrorist: "I am asking you again. Where is Jack Bauer...."

(Kim refuses to tell. Kate speaks up.)

Kate: "He's in.. He's in the Los Angeles CTU."

Terrorist: "Is this true?"

Kim: "Yeah.. yeah it is. He left about an hour ago."

Terrorist: "Okay... (To other guy) C'Mon Andrew, let's go."

(The two exit via the door. Kim and Kate breath a sigh of relief, but one of the men turns and shoots twice. Once Kate and Once Kim. The two leave the girls for dead.)
