The FBI and Bauer are clue-less, but the Prez has an idea...she mentions Hodges' rant about the bigger conspiracy. And, as luck would have it, they happen to have a post-suicidal Jonas in their clutches ripe for interrogation! Jack is all "Lemme at 'im!", and the Prez reminds him she's not down with OPT (Other People's Torture). Jack tells her that they won't need to beat the living f*ck out of Hodges for intel, because if Proud (Mary) Jonas tried to kill himself, it's because the Bigger Baddies are holding something over his head (likely his family). In other words, if the Government can entice Jonas with a sweet little offer of witness protection and "proof" of his death to satisfy the baddies, he should sing like a megalomaniacal canary!

Back at the Motel, NOT-Patty arrives at the room, sees dead/bloody Galvez in the bathroom, and gives Tony a cute little "Oh, You cad!" look. Tony tells her it was all necessary and that Galvez tried to extort them for more money. I would also like to note that Tony neatly re-hung the shower curtain. So nice of him! Anyhoo...NOT-Patty wants to go deliver the canister (which Tony discovered in the AC Vent) to the Bigger Baddies, but Tony takes a moment to advocate for using it NOW! Afterall, Hodges may have been a crazy bastard, but he provided NOT-Patty's "group or gang or whatever" a unique opportunity to strike while the US Government/FBI are reeling! Patty agrees with him, strokes his face, but doesn't think the "others" will be on-board. He advocates for trying anyway, and she agrees to do it. Tony starts stripping down, as we cut to break.

When we return, Agent Aaron Pierce (Hey Aaron!) is leading Ho-Livia into the Oval Office. She peppers him with questions, like the sketch-ball she is, about WTF is up w/ the whole FBI Operation/Being called into the Oval Office business. Aaron awesomely tells her he's got no clue, is just following orders to deliver her to Mama Taylor, and he's sure the Prez will fill her in.

Ho-Livia storms into the Oval Office asking all kinds of questions, and Tim Woods helpfully informs her the canister is officially out of their grasp. Olivia wants to know what the plans are to get it back, and Madame Prez sends Tim away so she and her daughter can have some alone time.

"Alright...I'm here. Let's make this quick, I'm on my way to blow a bunch of bloggers so they'll stop referring to me as Ho-Livia!"

Once it's a Taylor Girl Power Party alone in the office, the Prez tells Ho-Livia she wants her to call the Attorney General and draft a little "Witness Protection" agreement thingy for Jonas Hodges. Ho-Livia is Ho-Livid! Hodges is a traitor! The Prez calmly explains her rationale: Hodges asserted he was a small cog in a big wheel, and this is the best way to get him to tell them what he knows. Olivia would rather designate the old bastard as an "enemy combatant" and torture the f*ck out of him. Prez Taylor puts her foot down and says they don't "do that" in this "administration"! Dammit!

Evil, Entitled, Bitchy Ho-Livia has big brass balls enough to ARGUE with her mother (the President!). She plays the dead brother/dead civilians card and wonders what "Dad" would think about all this. Mama Prez shuts her down with a teary/emotional rant about how Roger was her son, but she's the President and she swore to uphold the constitution (which says no torture, FYI), and yada yada yada. She orders little Ho-Livia to STFU and do her bidding. Olivia: Not Happy about it!
