LYNNE KRESGE: What is it?

 

JACK BAUER: C.T.U. Los Angeles is going to be blown up within the hour. Wald's group is doing it.

 

LYNNE KRESGE: Is this the nuclear bomb?

 

JACK BAUER: No it is not the nuke. I repeat it is not the nuke but you need to evacuate C.T.U. and you need to alert a bomb squad. There are at least three charges on the second   [HANGS UP]

 INT. OPERATIONS COMPLEX

 

 

LYNNE KRESGE: Wald's crew is planning to blow up C.T.U. Los Angeles. It's a non radiological attack and it's happening within the hour.

 

ERIC RAYBURN: Where did you get this?

 

LYNNE KRESGE: Jack Bauer.

 

ERIC RAYBURN: They're hitting C.T.U. to cripple our investigation and divert attention away from the major strike.

 

LYNNE KRESGE: I agree.

 

ERIC RAYBURN: Has Bauer contacted C.T.U.?

 

LYNNE KRESGE: He couldn't get through. Phone lines are down. Somehow we have to warn C.T.U.

 

ERIC RAYBURN: No. No we don't. We can't.

 

LYNNE KRESGE: What are you talking about?

 

ERIC RAYBURN: If Wald's crew fails. They'll think someone tipped off C.T.U. They'll figure out it was Bauer.

 

LYNNE KRESGE: Are you seriously suggesting that we just let these people at C.T.U. die? Jack Bauer called with specific instructions.

 

ERIC RAYBURN: Why isn't he stopping them himself? He knows he has to keep his cover intact. He knows if he's exposed he can't get to Wald and we lose are only chance on finding the nuclear bomb.

 

LYNNE KRESGE: Eric, This is the president’s decision.

 

ERIC RAYBURN: Except right now he's trying to convince the press that it's business as usual. We've all ready detained Ron Wieland illegally; we can't muzzle the entire press core.

 

LYNNE KRESGE: We still have to tell the president.

 

ERIC RAYBURN: And we will. When he's in a position to hear it.

 

LYNNE KRESGE: It will be to late then.

 

ERIC RAYBURN: Lynne, This is my call.

 

LYNNE KRESGE: I don't work for you.

 

[Eric grabs Lynne's arm as she motions for him to let go]

 

 

[Lynne grabs a phone and calls Jenny]

 

JENNY DODGE: Jenny Dodge.

 

LYNNE KRESGE: Jenny it's Lynne I need to speak with president.

 

JENNY DODGE: He's in the middle of a press conference.

 

LYNNE KRESGE: Jenny I don't care. This is urgent I want to speak with him now.

 

JENNY DODGE: Okay I'll try to get a hold of him.

PAULA SCHAFFER: Okay.

 

 

{Paula runs up to Mason's office}

 

MICHELLE DESSLER: Tony, what's going on? I mean first the phone lines go down then N.S.A. puts in a rush order to transfer all our data on the nuke?

 

TONY ALMEIDA: He said it was precautionary.

 

MICHELLE DESSLER: Then he would have issued the same order to every other agency.

 

TONY ALMEIDA: Look into that would ya?

 

MICHELLE DESSLER: Sure.
