In his office Max was watching the news. The Israeli prime minister and president of the Palestinian Authority were arriving. They still thought the treaty was on schedule. Soon the news would be talking about the nuclear strikes. It seemed the people at LAX were being given the antidote. This had been a set-back for Max, but not too bad. Now Reid could take credit for the success. And with Palmer dead, the people would want vengeance. At LAX Nadia Yassir visits the imprisoned Mandy in the airport jail.

Nadia: The doctors are working on the cure. It looks like those people you tried to murder will survive.
Mandy: We live to fight another day.
Nadia: After Logan pardoned you we turned you over to Germany for the murder of Martin Belkin and the 15 other German citizens on the flight you bombed. Exactly what intel did you give German intelligence for your release?
Mandy: That's my business.
Nadia: As I prayed for everyone's safety, I couldn't help but think that you were one of the few people on this planet who deserved to die from that virus. I could very well be executed on trumped up treason charges. What do I have to lose by executing you right here?
Mandy: I can still give you intel.
Nadia: I doubt it. My hope is Jack kills Max, making whatever you reveal useless. But if he doesn't, Max will come for you. I just thought you should know that.
