Graem Bauer

Graham is the head of a group of four men who are working with President Charles Logan during Day 5. Their roles and motives are unexplained.

Day 5
Graham's cabal instigated the Sentox plan six months prior to Day 5 when a low-level associate, James Nathanson, recruited White House Chief of Staff Walt Cummings for the plot. They had apparently planned on using Cummings as a patsy, designed to draw possible suspicion away from themselves, President Charles Logan, and Christopher Henderson. In the midst of the operation, Cummings was exposed, Nathanson was killed by the terrorists for "betraying" them, and Henderson's involvement was discovered by Jack Bauer. However, Graham and his cabal were safely insulated from the CTU investigation and from terrorist reprisal. Graham seems relitively unconcerned with these developments, and they may have been a part of his plan from the beginning.

After Vladimir Bierko's first plot is foiled by CTU, damage control for the conspiracy begins. When Logan calls, Graham informs him that the First Lady, Charles' wife Martha Logan, is starting to grow suspicious. Logan states that he will personally deal with his wife, and Graham agrees.

Later that night, Graham discusses the situation with the other members of his cabal, stating that "...we started this eighteen months ago..." Day 5 took place eighteeen months after Day 4, which implies that the group may have been the mastermind behind the events in Day 4 and Day 5 or their involvement was placed in the aftermath of Day Four. He makes sure that his allies are willing to continue with this operation, despite having taken many twists.

When the President calls again, Graham tells him that he must ensure that Martha Logan remains silent. He also congratulates the President on being able to handle the increasing suspicion while they watched safely from the sidelines, thus "earning" their trust. When he learns that Jack Bauer hijacks the plane and seizes the evidence around 3:00 am, he orders the President to shoot it down as a last ditch effort to prevent the evidence from being released.

The plane ultimately lands safely and Bauer manages to escape with the recording &mdash; despite Logan's efforts to quickly surround the plane with a detatchment of U.S. Marines. Consequently, Graham and Logan agree that Logan must kill himself rather than subject the country to the scandal of a sitting president being charged for murder and treason. However, Graham learns shortly thereafter that Logan's suicide became unnecessary when the tape was unexpectedly erased by Miles Papazian. Afterward, Graham once again tells Logan to burn away any loose ends at the retreat, including agent Aaron Pierce and Martha Logan.
