At CTU Vicki Walsh is watching the tape of Hammond's interrogation. He seems to be saying something to Jack, but she can't make out what. She goes to see him in his office.
.
Vicki: What did you say to Jack Bauer to make him stop interrogating you?
Hammond: I don't remember what I said. The blood wasn't exactly reaching my brain.
Vicki: I'm just wondering why a guilty man would've spared you like that.
Hammond: I don't know. Just remember what I said earlier.
Vicki: I remember.

Agent Pierce watches over president Palmer. Dr Taylor comes to give his patient what looks like penicilin. Pierce stops him, the president is allergic. Then a thought occurs to Pierce, why would a doctor on the president's medical staff not know this? He begins to question doctor Taylor. Taylor reaches into his medical bag, pulls out a syringe, and tries to stab agent Pierce with it. They fight, Pierce kills Taylor with his own syringe. Pierce is about to radio for back-up, but fears there is noone he can trust. They've already had one serious breach today, the operative who kept the codes the same was still unnacounted for. And Pierce believes Jack Bauer's claim that Reid is allied with Max Schmidt. Perhaps the only way to keep president Palmer alive is for everyone to believe he's already dead. Pierce radios that doctor Taylor has murdered president Wayne Palmer.
