In the makeshift A-Team CTU Team Justice headquarters, the gang is arriving with the Matobos. Bill starts barking orders at Chloe to find Dubaku. He tells her to check satellite, traffic cams, and public transportation surveillance. He tells her that satellite is her priority, which is too bad because public transportation would've totally led to Dubaku quicker. Jack cuts in and tells Bill they need to rethink their strategy. After all, they were set up as an under-cover operation to infiltrate rogue terrorists. They simply don't have the available resources to find Dubaku and Jack thinks it's time to get the government involved. Renee is all confused. Isn't the government bad and corrupted? Mr. Matobo pipes in that the president can be trusted, and Bill notes it's the people around her that can't be trusted. Chloe chimes in and says "Mr. Buchanan, we need help." Renee joins the ChiaBill pile-on and offers her opinion that they left a lot of clues while storming of the building, and they'll be found soon enough. Mr. Matobo tells them he needs to get to the President and help her save his country. His wife takes his side and totally agrees. Jack tells Bill that if he wants to find Dubaku, they need to make the "call" to the White House. It's 5 on 1 and Buchanan is outnumbered. Bill looks over to Tony who nods his assent, and the decision is made to get the White House on the line. Everyone stares around intensely, except for Tony, who has a sad expression on his face and is looking at the ground. Is he still pining over Emerson, or just mad that his authority on this mission has been usurped?
In the Oval Office, President Taylor is watching a news report on the whole "averted crisis" in Kidron. You can sense her mind is elsewhere (missing hubby?) because she's standing with her arms crossed looking worried. She is interrupted by a secretary who informs her that former PM Matobo is on the line! Her mood quickly shifts to shocked and excited! She asks if the call is being traced, informed it's not (secure line), and takes the call anyway. Her first question, "All you alright?" Matobo tells her both he and his wife were rescued and she's all "By Whom?!" President Taylor knows the FBI and NSA have been completely worthless today. Matobo tells her he is safe, the CIP device has been destroyed, and that he wants to meet her in person. She demands to know who rescued him, but he plays it cool and tells her he can only tell her in person. He tells her they will be at the White House in 10 minutes. Upon hanging up, Jack lets everyone know they tried to trace the call, but the secure line held.
Madame Prez calls Ethan and demands he come into the Oval Office. She relates the content of the call to him, and Kanin looks all kinds of shocked. And, at long last, the President gets to do something other than convey worry and doubt...she gets to gloat to Kanin. She orders that Matobo be brought in the South Entrance, and to keep it all as quiet as possible. Kanin nods and exits the office...probably to tell as many people as possible about the newest development.
