Jack and Kate go back to Wallace's original position inside of the factory. Wallace follows. He explains that the commandos are people from his employer that are trying to kill him. Wallace does not know how they found him. Yusuf gets more weapons from the trunk of the CTU car. He radios Jack to let him know. He goes to find a better vantage point. Wallace suggests that Yusuf cover them as they get to the car. Jack says that he doesn't know how many are out there, and goes to call Michelle at CTU. Wallace says no, or he doesn't get the proof. Kate asks about the commandos, and says that must prove something. Jack says that it proves nothing to those in D.C. Yusuf then radios Jack again. He says that another car arrived. Jack tells Wallace that another car arrived, and that they aren't going to survive if he doesn't call his inside person. He tells Wallace that he will not jeopardize his identity. Wallace asks if it is offline. Jack says yes. Wallace finally agrees. Jack calls Michelle.

The President is about to invade the Middle East on erroneous information. Michelle asks for proof. Jack says that he can get it. Michelle says that it will be difficult. Jack asks for infra-red satellite. He tells her that they are surrounded, and of Yusuf's position. He then ends the call. He lets Yusuf know that they will be a few minutes. Jack, Kate, and Wallace go to secure their positions.
