Jack continues to look for proof the Cyprus audio tape is a fake; President Palmer is torn between launching a surprise attack or calling off the operation altogether.

Show starts with the President in a meeting with the military. The military is pushing him to launch the strikes. The President tells them to wait, because Jack has reason to believe that the phone calls are fake. Yusuf, Jack, and Kate in the hospital with the chip. Jack calls the President, but can't get ahold of him because he is in a meeting. Jack calls Tony and tells him that they have the chip. Jack tells Tony to call the President. Yusuf finds out a tracking device is attached to the chip and that is how the guys found them at the warehouse. Yusuf gets the tracking device off the chip when Jack sees some more of those bad guys driving up. He finds out the tracker still works, so he takes the tracker with him and tells Yusuf and Kate to take the chip back to CTU. Tony calls the President and tells him that Jack has the evidence now. Mike tries to convince the President that they need to attack the 3 countries now, but the President still wants to wait. The bad guys find the tracking thing in a room and see Jack running away. They radio people in cars and they surround Jack. One of them tazers Jack and they capture him. Lynne tells Mike that she has heard that the vice president and the cabinet are holding a meeting, without them or the president. Jack is shown being tortured, when a guy in a helicopter calls and wants to talk to Jack. He tries to convice Jack to give up the location of the chip and says he will wire a large sum of money to Jack's bank account. Jack declines and tells Ronnie(one of the guys torturing Jack) to get the location of the chip by any means necessary. Ronnie has a scalpal with acid on it and cuts Jack. Michelle and Carrie start fighting again and Tony sees it. Tony calls Michelle into his office and asks the problem. Michelle says that her brother had a wife and kids and Carrie made him leave them and then she got bored of him and left him. She says it almost caused her brother to kill himself. Suddenly her brother shows up to CTU and is nervous about hte nuke that went off. He sees Carrie and snaps. He starts screaming at her and then he starts choking her, before some guys pull him off and sedate him. Mike confirms to Lynne that he found out the vice president is having a meeting and tells Lynne to meet him ina closet up stairs. Michelle is crying in a corner when Tony comes up to her and consoles her and then they start making out. Carrie sees them. Jack is being tortured some more and he passes out. Ronnie wakes him up with something. The guy calls Ronnie again and tells him to get the chip. Mike is with Lynne in the closet and asks Lynne if she is behind the President with his decision. Mike said he is afraid of that and locks her in the closet with an agent waiting by the door so she can't get out. Yusuf and Kate are waiting outside the hospital for Jack and decide that something must have went wrong and that they should leave. They get in the vehicle and some white power guys come up and blame Yusuf for the bomb and pull a gun on him. They get him out and Yusuf reverses it and steals the gun and tells the guys to get on the ground. Yusuf doesn't see one guy behind him and he knocks Yusuf on the ground. All of them start beating on Yusuf when Kate tries to stop them. They slap Kate to the ground. Tony calls Michelle and asks about her brother. She says she is ok and then says she is sorry about kissing him. Tony says it is alright and don't be sorry. Jack is being tortured and he passes out again. The other guy torturing Jack says that it is too much and they are going to kill him and then wakes him up again. They threaten to kill him and say that Jack doesn't want Kim to be an orphan. They tazer Jack twice. Jack passes out again and Ronnie tells the other guy to wake him up again. Jack won't wake up this time. The show ends with Jack on the floor dead and Ronnie giving him cpr. No Kim at all this episode.
