Episode guide

Previously on 24

• Dmitri Gredenko warns Abu Fayed the Americans know their location, and insists they launch one of the aerial drones immediately and find another way to use the remaining two nuclear bombs later. They watch as the nuclear drone takes off.

• The Counter Terrorist Unit loses track of the nuclear drone on its satellites. Chloe O'Brian discovers it is able to stay hidden because the pilot has access to their systems through Nadia Yassir's workstation. Mike Doyle accuses Nadia of relaying the data deliberately and violently interrogates her, but Milo Pressman stops him after they track down the pilot himself.

• Jack Bauer leads an assault against the pilot's hideout. He discovers the nuclear drone's target is San Francisco and uses the pilot's control panel to force it into a crash-landing, successfully preventing its detonation.

• Vice President Noah Daniels is informed by Bill Buchanan the aerial drone was brought down, though the core was damaged, releasing radioactive material in the area. Daniels insists this represents an attack on their nation and that they must retaliate against the Middle East with an "in kind" military response. He gives Secretary of Defense Ethan Kanin the order to launch a missile as soon as the nuclear submarine is in range.

The following takes place between 8:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m.

• President Wayne Palmer: Be that as it may, the decision is mine and mine alone. I'm resuming my duties as Commander-in-Chief.
