CTU informs president Palmer about the impending attack. He immediately orders the plant shut down. But Max's allies are already above the plant. They parachute down, the leader is the last one out. Before he leaves he detonates an explosive on the plane, escaping just before it goes off. This will destroy evidence, can't have it leading to them before it's over. With their weapons the terrorists take out the guards. Two guards, Spencer and Proctor, protect the scientists who secure the plant. Their hope is that they won't be able to melt the plant down now. The scientists and guards make a vow, even under threat of death they will do nothing to help the terrorists meltdown this plant. The terrorists make no attempt to stop people from fleeing. Once in control of a nuclear power plant they'll have a million hostages, too many in the area would just lead to crowd control problems. By the time the leader and his team make it to the control room the scientists are gone. It's too late to melt down te plant from here. But the terrorists have secured the plant, and the whole world was watching them.
