At CTU Ryan Chapelle has bee found, dazed but alive. He names Nadia an Curtis as his attackers. Nadia has been arrested, Curtis is missing. Ira Gaines is being treated for his wound, Jack and Michelle go to guestion him. Michelle suspects Jack may have been involved but has no proof just yet.
.
Michelle: Mr Gaines, you are facing charges of murder and treason. Either one of those charges qualifies for the death penalty. But, if you help us stop the remaining terrorists, we can get you a plea bargain.
Gaines: Here's the bargain. I want a full pardon from the president. Bartlett, Hellar, I don't care who, so long as it holds up in court.
Michelle: The president might not agree to this, and if it doesn't happen soon, more innocent Americans will die.
Gaines: Than I suggest you hurry.
.
Michelle began calling the White House. In the meantime president Bartlett, his wife Abby, and their daughter Zoey were taken to Mount Weather. Bartlett realizes that Hellar is continuing with his coup. If he can't contact the bombers in the next hour, America and Qumar will officially be at war. Leo tries to contact Bartlett, but something is blocking the call. This doesn't make sense. Mount Weather was designed to allow the president to govern even during a nuclear war, what could possibly be blocking the communications. Richard Hellar hasn't gotten a response to his web postings yet. Even at this time of day, this kind of news should have gotten a lot of attention immediately. Then police burst through Richard Hellar's door. They arrest Richard and confiscate his computer. When Richard Hellar asks what the charges are these cops merely punch him. Michelle tells Gaines he'll be given a full pardon, but he has to begin immediately. Gianes knows his pardon won't be validated if the terrorists launch another attack, so he gets right to work.
