Cole (Day 2)

Cole was a Los Angeles resident who, with Marcus and Rouse, reacted with racist hostility after the detonation of a terrorist nuclear weapon.

Day 2
The Day 2 detonation of a nuclear bomb prompted some backlash against the Arab American community. Cole struck Yusuf Auda with a brick when Auda defended himself against Marcus and Rouse. The three men then beat Yusuf.

Cole stole the computer chip which proved the Cyprus recording to be a forgery, so Kate offered to take them to her home where she would purchase it back from them. They left Yusuf for dead. At Kate's home, she produced $1,500 and several thousand in Euros, but Marcus decided to shoot her because she heard their names. Jack Bauer, knowing their location from Auda's dying words entered as Kate fled and killed Rouse. Marcus and Cole locked themselves in a room with the chip.

Cole wished to surrender the chip and take Jack's offer to walk away, but Marcus did not. Cole and Marcus fought one another, and the chip was badly damaged during the struggle. Jack broke into their room, and the two surrendered. Police arrested both of them later.
