Chloe and Morris informed Jack and David they were ready. Chloe hacked into the house's fire alarm and set it off. This threw the kidnappers off, they searched for the problem. They couldn't leave with a hostage in broad daylight, even if there was a fire. They had to stay i the house and stop whatever fire had apparently started. While they did this Jack snuck in through the basement and took out one of the kidnappers. He killed the leader next, ad secured Conner, the others surrendered as CTU stormed in. At the airport Kate leaves Mike and goes to her private plane. Jack calls him and tells Conner to talk to his father. Once Doyle realizes his son is safe he rushes out and tells Kate Warner to freeze. Kate still had her gun out. Doyle was tempted to shoot her and claim self-defense, but he knew they still needed her alive. Kate knew there was no way out. She threw her disc to agent Doyle.
.
Doyle: What is this?
Kate: Information about what comes next. You want to stop it, you'll need that. But I'm not going to prison.
.
Before Doyle could stop her Kate put her gun in her mouth and pulled the trigger. Doyle called CTU and told Nadia what happenned.
.
Doyle: Kate Warner killed herself. She gave me this disc, I'm transmitting it to Chloe right now.
Nadia: Thank you Mike. I can't promise you charges won't be pressed later, but for now we need you on this.
Doyle: I uderstand. As long as my son is safe I'll face whatever consequences come.
.
Chloe decrypted the disc, it wasn't hard. Kate had used this as leverage against her associates, apparently wanted it decryped immediately if they killed her. She soon discovered what was suppossed to come next. An attack at 11am California time. These were the plans for the Sante Fe nuclear power plant.
