Phillip Bauer

Phillip Bauer is the father of Jack Bauer and Graem Bauer, and the grandfather of Kim and Joshua Bauer. Phillip is also the chairman of BXJ Technologies. He was in contact with a former Soviet general named Dmitri Gredenko, who apparently orchestrated the sale of the five suitcase nukes to Abu Fayed.

According to Graem, Phillip was highly amorous even in his old age, and was involved with one unnamed blonde in particular at the time of Day 6.

Day 6

When Hamri Al-Assad gave the name Dmitri Gredenko to CTU Los Angeles, Chloe O'Brian looked up Gredenko's recent conatcts and found Phillip Bauer on the list. She shared this knowledge with Bill Buchanan, who then passed it on to Jack Bauer. Jack decided to handle this lead on his own and when Phillip's long-time butler Sam told Jack that his father went off somewhere, Jack decided to find out about his father's whereabouts from his brother, Graem Bauer.

After interrogating Graem, Jack eventually learned that Graem hired Darren McCarthy to work for BXJ Technologies, and McCarthy ended up stealing five suitcase nukes from the company, eventually supplying them to terrorist Abu Fayed. Phillip was trying to make things right and cover the company's involvement up, in order to prevent Graem from facing prison time.

Phillip and Jack realize they have been betrayed.

When Jack and Graem arrived at the BXJ Technologies office, Jack was taken by guards who were willing to kill them, but Phillip stopped them. Eventually Phillip agreed to get CTU involved in the situation, taking Jack's word that everything would end up right. Just as Jack was about to call, Graem ordered the guards to take the phone away, and Jack and Phillip were forced to surrender. They were brought to a van, and Graem told the guards to do what it takes.

Once taken to a construction-site pre-arranged for both Phillip and Jack to be executed and thrown under a cement-truck, the killers ordered both to their knees. Phillip and Jack refused, eventually subduing one with Jack shooting the other via the first killer's pistol. Once he was taken to the ground, Phillip shot him once in the heart; killing him.

From that moment, Phillip spent the remainder of the hour watching his son, Graem, as Jack interrogated him concerning information about the nukes. He intervened silently when Jack was about to kill Graem, and showed disdain for how their family turned out. Phillip went as far as apologizing to Jack for how he failed both of his sons in life.

Once Jack left to consult with Bill about the information he learns concerning Graem's involvement in the events of Day 5, Phillip ordered the remaining CTU consultants from the study for a discussion with his son.

At this point, Phillip revealed his intimate knowledge about the events throughout the morning. It turns out that he had arranged for Graem to willingly undergo torture to protect their company, and keep Jack away from the real threat by having him search Graem for information. Once he expressed how he believes that Graem isn't suitable for the important sacrifice ahead of him, he killed his own son by injecting him with an over-dose of the syringe used in the interrogation and smothers him by his hand.

Pretending that Graem had a seizure, he calls in CTU personnel for assistance.
