Quotes

President Palmer: Martha, do you realize how traumatic this would be for the country, if people were to find out?
Martha Logan: [sarcastic] "Oh yes, we're worried about the *country*..."
President Palmer: Damn it, Martha! That's the most important part of this! This scandal would destroy the American people's faith in their government. It would destroy our credibility all over the world.

Henderson the Ghost

Captured/Recaptured. Henderson's middle name. Bad things are going on at CTU but we can tell from Karen's expression that she is smelling a rat. Chloe and Buchanan are working from his house as Jack tries to figure out what to do about a plane that is taking off. The President gets a promise from his wife that she will keep her mouth shut. Hard to believe that he would go for that. Also, he is now vulnerable because the recording is being held as currency in case he tries to kill Henderson. There is another one of those last second shots just as one of the good guys is about to be killed. This is getting a bit cliched. Still, one of my favorite episodes.
