The Conspiracy

On the day of the California Presidential Primary, between 1:00 AM and 2:00 AM, Richard Walsh meets his inside informer Scott Baylor in the Dunlop Plaza, who delivers a key card with data of the CTU conspirator. However, they are ambushed, there is a shoot-out, Scott is killed and Walsh calls Jack Bauer to come to help him. In Mojave Desert, Mandy hides the ID of David Palmer's photographer in the sand with a beacon and is rescued by her contractor; later her partner picks the ID up in a motorcycle. Meanwhile, Kim and her friend Janet are abducted while Teri and Alan seek their daughters. Jack helps Walsh, who gives the key card to him after being shot, dying pretty after. Jack has a huge surprise with the identity of the rogue of his agency. David Palmer contacts a friend of him and sneaks out from his suite.

The second episode of "24" is simply excellent. Now that I am familiarized with the characters, there are intriguing situations: the mystery of David Palmer; the objective of kidnapping the teenagers; the objective of Mandy's partner; and the surprising identity of the traitor in the agency. The story is excellent and the development of the characters has an adequate pace. My vote is nine.
