sorry, she won't be doing any running tonight since she confesses to a cop that she ran from police, and we see a shot of her in cuffs being brought in.

The people shooting at them are people that the 7th snake worked for. They don't want him to give out the information. They get out of the building after killing the guys, but the snake gets shot on the neck. He doesn't want to go to the hospital and wants to go straight to LAX. They are on their way there when the snake starts blacking out, so they decide to take him to a nearby medical center to keep him alive long enough to get info on where the evidence is. The snake realizes he is about to die in the medical center and decides he should tell Jack. He tells Jack that is is on a microchip, but dies before he can tell him where. Jack goes by one of the xrays up on the wall and notices that the chip is inside the snake's stomach. He goes over and rips it out of his stomach at the end of the show. The rest of the show is mostly Kim crap. She confesses to the cops that she is wanted for murder and they arrest her. Back at the station the cops tell her that they have found out she is innnocent, because the girl's dad's finger prints were all over the murder weapon. The only charge against her is escaping from the cops. The cop tells her to call CTU and get help and she will probably get to walk away free. She calls Tony at CTU and she finds out that her dad is still alive. Then she calls her boyfriend in the hospital and he is mad at her for getting him into all of this stuff and he says he never wants to see her again. The camera scans down after the call to show that his legs is amputed. The President sends the national guard to Atlanta where some hate groups are starting to attack middle eastern neighborhoods. Later in the episode we find out a middle eastern child was killed in the attack.

Is Kims boyfriend the same guy who knocks the abusive dad out. And since I am stupid, whats amputated mean

Yes, that is her boyfriend. Amputed means his legs were cut off.

if we do see that his legs were amputated this episode will get the "this program contains some graphic violence, viewer discresion advised" or something like that

it shows Jack ripping into the snake's stomach with a knife and sticking his hand inside.

CTU is so key to the investigation, aren't they using alot of their resources, including their leader, on Michelle? I'd send her home if it's gonna take 2 folks to watch her to make sure what SHE is doing is on the up and up.

Michelle is their only link to Jack at the moment, and the only one Jack seems to confide in. Thus is their best link/tip for 'em.
