Edward Vossler

Edward Vossler was Secret Service bodyguard and driver of Roger Taylor. Taylor became the First Son when his mother, Senator Allison Taylor, was inaugurated as President during Redemption. Vossler was also a mole for corporate mastermind Jonas Hodges. Vossler had a wife, Carol, and an 11-month old son, Connor.

Redemption
Agent Vossler frisked Chris Whitley, a man who urgently came to speak with Roger. Vossler told Roger that Chris exhibited signs of instability caused by drug abuse. He said this primarily to discredit Chris since the news he had to share with Roger might incriminate Vossler's boss, Hodges.

Vossler then drove Roger and his girlfriend Samantha Roth to the inauguration of Senator Taylor in Washington, DC. Roger thanked him for making good time. Vossler then discreetly spoke on the phone to Hodges about the incriminating information Chris leaked to Roger. They discussed that Roger had little reason to trust Chris's apparently crazy story, especially since the evidence was limited. Vossler's men, Halcott and Quinn, tortured Chris at his apartment. When Hodges gave the go-ahead to Vossler, the order was passed down to the two men to murder Chris and conceal the body.

Day 7
On Day 7, Vossler was tasked to watch Samantha Roth after she divulged to First Gentleman Henry Taylor that Roger's death was not a suicide and gave him evidence to prove it. Vossler's conspirator, fellow Secret Service agent Brian Gedge, lured the First Gentleman to Samantha's apartment and incapacitated him. He then called Vossler, who was watching Samantha from his car across the street from an outdoor cafe, to make contact and bring her back to her apartment. They intended to kill the both of them and frame it as a murder-suicide. Vossler got out of his car and approached Samantha, claiming that the First Gentleman had ordered him to escort her to a safe house, as her life was in danger. Vossler suggested that they stop at her apartment first to collect some of her things before they move to a safer location. The two left and got into his car.

Vossler dropped Samantha off at her apartment and called Gedge to let him know she was coming up. Gedge instructed Vossler to remain in the car and keep watch while he dealt with Samantha and the First Gentleman. Gedge managed to stab Samantha to death, but Taylor was able to overcome the drug Gedge slipped into his drink and the two struggled, and eventually fell over a railing on the second floor of the apartment crashing through a table below. Taylor landed on Gedge and was apparently unharmed from the fall. As they fell, Taylor finished strangling Gedge, killing him, unknown to Vossler outside.

When White House Chief of Staff Ethan Kanin sent out an alert to the Secret Service to find Agent Gedge and the First Gentleman, Vossler was still waiting outside in his car. At 2:45pm he received the alert and after trying to call Gedge on his cellphone, Vossler decided to investigate the apartment himself before more agents arrived. With his gun drawn, he approached Samantha's apartment door and caught Henry Taylor trying to leave. Taylor closed the door and locked it, though Vossler easily forced it open. Taylor attempted to grab Agent Gedge's firearm, but Vossler was able to stop him and aimed his gun on the First Gentleman, intent on killing him. Taylor pleaded for his life and pointed out to Vossler that their staged murder-suicide had failed and if he shot him, the authorities would know it was murder.

Vossler then received a phone call from Sangalan Colonel Iké Dubaku, who explained he hadn't been able to contact Agent Gedge. Vossler informed Dubaku that Gedge was killed by Henry, though he couldn't see how it was possible. Dubaku ordered Vossler to bring Henry to him. The rogue Secret Service agent then gagged Henry and brought him at gunpoint to his car outside, where he forced him in the trunk. Vossler then phoned back Dubaku and was told to bring the First Gentleman to a market across the street from Dubaku's apartment, where he'd have a man waiting. Vossler asked Dubaku what he plans on doing to Henry and was coldly dismissed by him, simply ordered to bring Taylor quietly. Vossler dropped off Henry and was wired his money by Dubaku.

Because of his various phone-calls to agent Gedge in the timeline of Henry's abduction, Larry Moss was able to implicate him as an accomplice. He revealed this information to both Renee Walker and Jack Bauer, seeing him as their only lead. As Bauer and Moss worked to triangulate Vossler's cellular phone to get a bead on him; Renee broke into his house, taking his wife and child hostage as a bargaining chip.

On his way to a previous meeting, Vossler's car was careened off the road by an oncoming SUV, whipping his vehicle into another lane of traffic. As Vossler recovered, he was smacked in the head by Bauer, ripped from his car and drug into an abandoned shop, where he was thrown to the floor.

Bloodied and immobile, Vossler resisted Bauer's threats at first. When he called his wife Carlol, however, and learned of the threat to them, he quickly surrendered Henry Taylor's location.

When a pedestrian wandered into the shop, Vossler took advantage of the distraction. Kicking Bauer's weapon out of his hands, he also dragged out an automatic knife. He swiped it at Bauer's throat, only to be grappled against the wall. The two men brawled to the floor, in a flurry of punches and kicks. Vossler got his attacker pinned to the wall, struggling to stab him in the throat.

Bauer, knocking aside Vossler's arm, rammed the blade underneath of them and stabbed him in the center of the chest. From the combination of his car-accident, assault and stabbing, Vossler collapsed to the floor and succumbed to his injuries.
