Kate Warner continues to hide in the janitor's closet. She hears two agents approaching, her gun drawn. Then she hears another noise. Agent Mike Doyle tells them to search the floor beneath them. They go, assuming his angry voice is frustration over their failure. Experience has taught them not to argue with Doyle when he's angry. Doyle opens the door and grabs Kate Warner's throat, leaving her barely enough space to speak.
.
Doyle: If anything happens to my son I swear by any god you name, I will kill you.
Kate: And if my men don't hear from me in the next 10 minutes, Conner dies.
Doyle: What do you want?
Kate: You have to ask? You're going to lead me out of here in handcuffs, tell your friends you'll be the one to take me to CTU. I'll tell you where we're really going once we're on the road.
.
Doyle hated this, but had little choice in the matter, not if he wanted to protect his son. He placed the cuffs on her wrists. Then he radioed his comrades, let them know he had Kate Warner in custody, was taking her outside. Jack Bauer heard this, wanted to talk to her, ask why she was doing this. Jack caught up with them just before they went out the door.
.
Doyle: Jack, we really need to get going.
Jack: I just need a minute. I want to know why Kate? You helped us once, saved a lot of innocent lives.
Kate: Yeah, I did. And I had to watch my baby sister being given a lethal injection. My father wasted away after that, becoming a shell of his old self. He said he didn't blame me, but I could tell he did. That was when I lost faith in anything. My company stood to lose billions on this treaty, so yeah, I tried to stop it. The treaty will fall apart like they always do, I'm just controlling the chaos.
Jack: No, you're causing it.
Doyle: Jack, we're on a bit of a clock right now.
.
Jack soon realized he'd never get a satisfactory answer from this woman, he nodded to Doyle to take her away.
