Hey.

Hey, babe How was work?

It was good.

I escorted some CEO to the airport.

I helped another one's wife get home safe from some charity event, you know, just helping the one percent breathe easier.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

Fix you breakfast?

Just coffee, thank you.

Mm-hmm.

(CHUCKLES)

I thought you stopped taking these.

I did. For a couple of weeks.

So... what's going on?

I mean, you said you were ready.

I know.

Listen, it's been six months, Nicole.

And I get it hasn't been easy living in the hiding, changing your name and...

Eric, I'm fine.

Okay? I'm just... (CHUCKLES)

I'm just worried you're not.

You're barely eating or sleeping.

I hear you outside punching that bag at all hours.

What do you want from me?

Seriously, what... just tell me, what do you want me to say?

I just, I think you still need more time.

You got to get past everything that happened to you over there.

I'm okay.

Are you?

Things are good.

They're good.

Right?

We got a future here, so we should start acting like it, okay?

Hmm.

Hmm?

Let me get coffee.

Okay.

And pull hard copies of everything we put together on the Haddads, including ground recon going back six months.

Be advised...

Thanks, Andy.

I'm already late.

My husband's gonna k*ll me.

She's cutting it close. Maybe I should call.

She'll be here.

(APPLAUSE IN THE DISTANCE)

I just sent you some changes for the fund-raiser speech.

Uh, let me know what you think.

Yeah, will do.

We're gonna have a lot of eyeballs on it.

There she is.

I was beginning to think this was gonna happen without you.

You look beautiful.

You're just saying that.

I may be a senator, but, uh, I would never lie to you.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

Rebecca: Sorry I'm late, I was pulling case files, and lost track of time.

Case files?

I have another transition meeting with Mullins.

I thought you were done with those.

We didn't get through everything last time.

So... I'm gonna have to go directly to the fund-raiser from CTU.

Don't worry.

I won't be late.

Woman: They're ready for us.

I know how important this is.

Oh, did the Haliwells confirm?

We're still waiting to hear.

Just right here.

Thank you.

I'll reach out.

Man: Senator, over here?

People with that kind of money tend to move in herds.

Thank you.

But we'll need them to get to the White House.

Not that this will hurt.

You're gonna make a great first lady.

Come on.

No.

I want this to be your moment.

Go ahead.

Love you.

Good afternoon.

Six months ago, U.S. Special Forces launched an as*ault on the compound of Ibrahim Bin-Khalid, k*lling him and eight members of his t*rror1st organization.

It is my distinct privilege to award the Congressional Gold Medal to the woman whose tireless efforts made that victory possible.

Former National Director of CTU, Rebecca Ingram.

Thank you.

Thank you, Senator.

This is such an honor and so humbling.

I'd like to acknowledge the many dedicated people at CTU, whose hard work made this operation a success.

And the Army Rangers, six heroes who risked their lives to stop Bin-Khalid from carrying out his thr*at to att*ck this country.

You know, my boss said he'd let us use his cabin up in River Woods.

Maybe we should go up this weekend.

Take some time for ourselves, you know?

Or we could do that right now.

(LAUGHS) Eric, I have to be at work in an hour.

You can call in sick.

No. I can't.

Yes, you can.

I just got this job.

So?

Yeah?

Government screwed us again, Eric.

Ben, what are you talking about?

Supposed to keep us safe?

Bin-Khalid's people found us.

Whoa, Ben, Ben, slow down and tell me what's going on.

Two men showed up where I was crashing.

They asked if anyone had seen me.

That could mean anything.

They were showing around a picture of me in uniform.

They know who I am.

Are you sure?

I'm not making this up.

Those guys, they tore the place apart.

You got to call CTU.

You got to get them on this before these bastards find me.

Ben, I need you to calm down, okay?

Don't tell me to calm down!

This is happening.

Get somewhere safe and I'll deal with this.

Tell me how I can reach you.

You can't. Ben...

What is it now?

He said Bin-Khalid's people found him.

What else is new?

What are you doing?

I'm signaling the squad.

How? I thought... you weren't supposed to have any contact with each other, that you just made an exception for Ben.

We don't have contact.

The Army, they set this up.

It's a double-blind alert.

So, you're actually taking Ben seriously?

Just being safe.

The guys will signal back that they're okay, and I'll find Ben and I'll get him cleaned up.

Eric, how many times are you gonna send him to rehab?

You're not his squad leader anymore.

What is it?

They're not responding.

You just sent it out.

They just have to tap the screen to confirm.

Maybe they're not near their phones.

All of them?

Nicole.

Get to the attic. Go.

What is it?

Get to the attic. Go! Go!

What is it?

Eric, what is it?

They're jamming us. I'm going for the g*n.

No matter what you hear, no matter what happens, you stay there, okay?

Don't make a sound.

Don't move!

I put the case files in the conference room.

Great.

And congratulations.

Your speech was great.

We watched it on C-SPAN.

Thanks, Andy. Where's Bashir?

Oh, Mullins let him go Friday.

What?

Yeah.

Brought in someone new, who is so not as qualified.

We're talking two-year college.

I'm sure he had his reasons.

I mean you were tough, honestly.

Sometimes I wanted to bitch-slap you, but at least you had our backs.

Keith?

Rebecca, hey, congratulations.

Oh, thank you.

Part of me thought you'd cancel, be off celebrating.

Mm-hmm.

How's John?

Oh, campaigning.

24/7. I don't know how he does it.

Yeah.

I've got to make a fund-raiser.

We should get started.

Yeah.

I'm "so not qualified."

Really? You know, for your information, not everyone needs to go to Stanford.

Okay, that was a private conversation, okay?

And-and how did you even know I went to Stanford?

You told me two minutes after we met.

You know my cousin was Edgar Stiles.

And I should know who that is?

He was one of the best analysts CTU ever had.

Taught me more than you could have ever learned at Stanford.

(GLASS SHATTERING, OBJECTS CRASHING)

Where's your wife?

She's at work.

Her car's in the driveway.

A friend of hers picked her up.

I know why you're here, so just, just do what you have to do.

I want the strongbox.

What?

Where is it?

I don't know what you're talking about.

A strongbox that belongs to Sheik Bin-Khalid, taken from his compound the night your squad came and k*lled him.

I never saw anything like that.

Your men...

Stewart, Jackson, Geddes, Colburn... they didn't have it.

That's right.

We k*lled your friends and their wives and their children.

(GRUNTING)

That leaves you and Grimes.

And you're going to tell me which one of you has it.

Where is it?!

(FADED): Where is the strongbox?!

I don't know.

I'm not convinced.

Let's go, let's go. Come on.

(CAR HORN HONKS)

Rebecca: Okay, good, let's move on to the Haddad network.

I'm up to speed on the Haddads.

Sorry, I just need to make sure nothing's overlooked.

Oh, understandable.

But I'm on it.

I noticed you made some personnel changes.

Where I thought better choices were available.

Better than Bashir?

He's the expert on extremist social media.

Rebecca... you're the one who chose me as your replacement.

I mean, you need to trust me to do the job.

You're right.

Running CTU, it's like a drug... hard to come down from.

So maybe you're just not ready to let go.

The party asked John to run four years ago.

He said no, because of me.

He knew I couldn't track Bin-Khalid and work on his campaign at the same time.

So...

(CELL PHONE BUZZING)

I promised once we got Bin-Khalid, it was his turn.

I'd be there for him.

Sorry, I need to take this.

Uh, yeah, yeah, no worries.

Just find me when you're done.

Carter?

We're blown. The whole squad.

What?

Bin-Khalid's people found us.

They have our new names, and three of them just broke into our house.

Listen, I took them out, but... they k*lled the rest of the squad.

Grimes and I are the only ones left.

(SIGHING): Oh, my God.

Your-your wife, is-is-is she...?

She's with me, but you need to know.

This isn't payback.

They're looking for a strongbox they say one of us stole from Bin-Khalid's compound.

I don't know why and I don't know what's in it.

Bin-Khalid was planning an att*ck on U.S. soil.

Maybe this strongbox is-is part of that.

A w*apon or-or Intel on a target.

Whatever it is, Ben must be the one who took it.

Why? Why would he do that?

The w*r really messed him up.

I was covering for him at the end.

Do you know where he is?

No.

No, he's paranoid.

He-he started sh**ting up and he lives off the grid.

I'll have Keith Mullins try to track him down.

No.

No, three people had access to our new names.

The directors of CIA, NSA and CTU, which is now Keith Mullins.

I've known Keith for years, I can't believe he'd give up the squad.

But he did have access.

Yes.

Then it could be him.

And I'm not gambling our lives on that.

Listen, you need to help us find Ben.

I don't know where he is, but I have the number that he called me from.

It's probably a burner.

Okay.

I'll try to figure out some way to run a geospatial.

All right. I'll send the number to you now.

And then I need to get Nicole somewhere safe.

I can't help you.

And the police and FBI are on the same network that's been compromised.

They're not an option.

Call me when you find Ben and I'll-I'll recover the strongbox.

Okay.

Nicole?

There may be an att*ck, baby.

I need to do this.

This is Rebecca's problem.

Why does it need to be you?

Because right now...

I'm the only one I can trust.

I-I-I don't know his name, but it's all of this t*rror1st stuff.

t*rror1st stuff. What...?

Yeah. About-about the struggle.

About destroying the American oppressors and how Amira is going to prove herself.

I-I know this is crazy, but I'm starting to think that's why she came here from Chechnya with her brother to do this.

Do you understand how serious this is, what you're saying?

Yeah. Yeah. That's why I've been trying to talk to her.

What are you gonna do?

The school has a policy about this kind of thing.

I have to take it to the principal.

Yeah, but Amira's gonna know that I said something.

There's nothing I can do about that now.

If you're right about her, someone needs to intervene.

Take your seat.

Hey. What?

What's going on?

There's been an att*ck against the Army Rangers who k*lled Bin-Khalid.

I just confirmed four of them are dead.

Their families, too.

Andy, I need geospatial tracking on a burner phone.

Independent and undetectable by anyone in CTU. Can you do that?

Why undetectable?

Does-does Mullins not know about this?

Only director-level personnel had access to the squad's identities, including me and... Keith.

Wait a minute.

Are you saying...?

Wh-what... what are you saying?

I'm saying that it's possible that Keith gave up the Rangers.

So we need to do this in secret.

Okay.

But what if you're wrong about this?

I'm not.

And what happened to those Rangers, it's just the start of something worse.

There's some kind of att*ck coming.

Hell, no, Eric. What is this?!

Listen, listen, Nicole.

I can't take you to the police, okay?

I can't take you to the FBI, because Bin-Khalid's people are in the system.

We left all this for a reason!

This is the only thing that makes sense to me right now.

Some things I did in the service are coming back around, and there's people are trying to k*ll me.

What's that got to do with me, though?

These men are t*rrorists, Isaac, and they're gonna k*ll a lot of people.

I have to try and stop them, but...

First I need to make sure Nicole is safe, so I need you to protect her.

Right, so go ask your government.

I can't.

Why not?

'Cause someone in the government's working with the t*rrorists.

Just bring back the list before Bin-Khalid's people find you.

(SIREN WAILING)

Yeah, Maybe I'll find them. Huh?

See what they're willing to pay.

No, Ben. Ben, you won't do that.

Okay? You wouldn't do that.

I'll do what I have to.

I meant what I said, Eric.

I'm owed.

Ben!

I'm your friend, and I've always looked out for you, so please don't do this.

Ben?

Announcer: Tomorrow the 24: Legacy premiere continues

I want two million dollars You're not thinking straight.

You get me the money or I will sell the list to Bin-Khalid's people.

We checked it out. There are photos.

This doesn't make sense.

You will not win in November.

The money is at the police station.

How do you expect to get into the station?

In the back of a patrol car.

Here's the deal, you're gonna do what I say, when I say it.

(HELICOPTER, BEEP)

You need to get out of there, now!

(g*nsh*t)

The 24: Legacy continues tomorrow at 8/7c on Fox.
