Chump Don't Want No Help, Chump Don't Get No Help. -

Is it just me or does 24 really help you get through Mondays? You could have a shitty job, but going through Monday is so much easier knowing that Jack will be kicking the ass that you didn't get a chance to because you let people walk all over you during the day. And even if you love your awesome job, Jack gives you the inspiration to take out the weaker people at the office and make them cower like a terrorist cowers before Jack's mighty presences. While Jack uses a glock and you use well-placed rumors and gossip, it is nonetheless just as exciting. If you don't believe me, just ask Lynn McGill, who can barely function knowing people might find out his sister beat him up and took his key card. And we get all of this under the calming backdrop of the possible death of the First Lady of the Untied States.
Yes, that's right. Following my suggestion from last week, the terrorists decided to buy a laptop to help them coordinate their attack. Our boy Bierko is quite happy that he was able to paralyze the president with his assassination plan. President Logan loves his wife, but he doesn't to kill a couple of hundred thousand Americans to get her back. I know what you can do Mr. President! Try and talk some sense into your wife. Get her to get out of the limousine, preferably in a way that doesn't cause any suspicion. It's a nice theory, and the President does put in a call for the First Lady, but it would be easier to get Mary Kate to eat a steak than it would be to talk sense into Martha. She gets the call, but is not going to leave. Looks like the President Pussy was going to have to make a decision, because time is running out.
For as weak and helpless as Audrey was last year, she seems to have it all together this year. She wants Edgar to meet her in the back room. Lynn sees their conversation, and is worried that somebody ordered Chinese without first asking him if he wanted the lunch special with an egg roll or small side of wonton soup. Edgar tells him they were just going over some DOD protocols, which seems to calm Lynn down for a little bit, but McGill knows that something is going on behind his back, which is bad, but nobody has been able to come up with a lead on the nerve gas, which is worse.
As all of us know, there is a lead on the nerve gas, but since the person following up the gas lead has a warrant out for his arrest, he is not going to be able to receive the help he needs. That person is Jack and he is counting on his friends in CTU to help him get into Omicron without being noticed. That's where Audrey and her plan come in. She is going to need Chloe to break into some systems for Jack, but she needs Edgar to know what's going on and to cover for Chloe with McGill. Edgar is not happy about breaking the law, but with Spenser out of the picture, he needs to start working on endearing himself to the woman of his dreams. He agrees to cover for Chloe, and heads back to his station.
Jack mentioned a Christopher Henderson at Omicron, and said that he used to know him. It made it sound like they were acquaintances and had lunch at the same hot dog stand, but it was Henderson that recruited Jack to CTU. Jack was part of an investigation that implicated Henderson with conspiring to sell classified documents to defense contractors. He swore he was innocent, never admitted his guilt, and held a grudge against Jack ever since. Henderson's history at CTU was not the reason that Jack was heading to Omicron, but it when Chloe confirmed that Omicron made the centox for the military; Jack knew that Henderson would be a good place to start.
