After the shootout last week, Evelyn was hit and they lost Henderson. I have no clue how you can lose some fugitive when the whole city in on curfew, but I guess if the President is the brains behind your operation, you are going to have some sort of protection. Jack learned that Evelyn had placed the evidence she had on the President in a safety deposit box in Agoura Hills. I guess she thought that Westlake Village was too obvious, so she decided to go a little farther down the 101 to be safe.

Since Henderson is still out there, they can't just take Evelyn to a hospital because hospitals ask too many questions, at least that is what Robert Duvall told me in Gone in Sixty Seconds. Instead, they take her to a motel where Jack takes a look at her injury and announces that he will have to clean out the wounds. He just needs to call up Audrey and have her upload the locations of all of the major arteries to his PDA. Jack can then punch Evelyn in the face and perform some vascular surgery.

Unfortunately, there isn't enough time for surgery, and Evelyn says she is fine, so Jack decides to call Audrey for another matter. He is going to have this evidence that President Logan gave the order to kill President Palmer, but he can't just throw that revelation out into the wind and hope somebody picks up on it. You know, because there isn't one major news outlet that would release information damaging to the President without checking on the sources first. I guess if Jack had a recording of Logan having sex with Walt Cummings they would care, but evidence that he was complicit in the death of a former President? Whatever. If only Dan Rather was around, it might help, but then again, we can't wait until Sixty Minutes II airs because we have less than half a day left.

Audrey can't believe what she is hearing, but she does happen to know a high level source in the government that might be able to help them out. Yes, it's the return of James Heller! Why haven't we heard from him all day? Well, he was on his way back from a summit in Japan. I mean, you might think he would have set some time aside to be around for the big terrorism treaty considering he is the SecDef and all. It's really nice to see Heller back because Audrey has been good, but this whole operation needs adult supervision, and with Bill Buchanan out of the loop, Heller is the guy. Jack tells Audrey to keep the details secret from her father to let him know, but to arrange a meeting with him as soon as possible. In the meantime, he needs to get around the checkpoints, so he does actually tell her to send all of that information to his PDA.

We can only speculate why Logan decided that he needed to do everything he did, but he knows that Henderson has to fix it. Henderson actually killed Palmer without Logan's knowledge, but the fact that Logan knew a lot more about what was happening and sat idly by while a lot of Americans lost their lives means he will at the very least be impeached. Therefore, Logan places a call into Karen Hayes at CTU. He tells Karen that he wants to put a warrant in on Jack Bauer, and that apprehending Jack should take priority, even over capturing Henderson. This all seems strange to her(luckily, we all can relate), especially considering he only recently gave the order to reinstate Jack, but goes through with the plan and promises to keep the source of the order confidential.

This new directive to bring in Jack is the last thing that Karen needs. She is starting to realize that running CTU is not such an easy task, and the only thing she has done since gaining power is to fire the old CTU staff, and she is having second thoughts about that. Now she is getting this order and has no clue what is going on. Miles won't hear any of this. In fact, he seems to be VERY excited that the new mission is to get Jack Bauer. Maybe if they catch him, Miles will get to do the interrogation himself! Yay! Latex gloves and Jack strapped down in a chair. Miles can barely contain himself!

Miles knows that if they are going to find Jack, the best way to do it is to watch his friends. Audrey updates Chloe on the plan and then tells Karen Hayes that she is going to leave to catch a few hours of sleep. If it seemed that Karen let Audrey go a little too easily, it's because Karen had two agents place a transponder n her car with orders to follow Audrey and give updates on her location.
