At the White House president Bartlett is informed of the situation at the mall. Some of the nerve gas was released, at least six civilians are dead. The president cannot understand why agent Almeida didn't move in earlier, he gave very specific orders for them to stop the terrorists, not let them release the nerve gas. Vice president Hellar calls his daughter Audrey to warn her.

.

Hellar: Audrey, is this line secure?

Audrey: Yes, what's wrong?

Hellar: Did director Mason tell agent Almeida not to interfere, and for Jack Bauer to give them the real codes?

Audrey: Yes, he said these were the president's orders.

Hellar: I was in the room. I advised president Bartlett to do that, but her refused.

Audrey: So George Mason acted on his own?

Hellar; Maybe. But we can't rule out the possibility that someone from Division, or even the White House forged Bartlett's orders. Be very careful Audrey:

Audrey: I will.

.

As Audrey hung up she noticed Nadia Yassir get a phone call. Nadia then quietly left the building. Odd time to walk away from work, Audrey couldn't help but be a little suspicious. Omar meanwhile arrived at the safehouse, but his team was gone, where would they go? Omar then got a call, from his superior, general Juma.

.

Juma: You have failed. The Americans are on to you.

Omar: No, I escaped.

Juma: They followed you, you cannot allow yourself to be taken alive.

Omar: I understand general.

.

Omar then shot himelf in the head. Tony arrived too late. Their only lead to finding the remaining 19 cannisters of nerve gas is gone.
