We find out what the Chinese want in exchange for Audrey: a bit of hardware circuitry on the suitcase nukes.
Implausibility alert: although one never wants high tech military weapons to fall into the hands of other people, it would be poor engineering to put anything in a device which would compromise all your other high tech gadgets.
President Palmer is starting to look ill. We could see this cab coming down the street with its doors open. By the end of the episode he is on the way to the hospital and the VEEP is once again in charge.
Chloe gets the info Jack needs to get the circuit but Morris finds out and gets Chloe to confess to Buchanan and as such warns Doyle to stop Jack which they do.
Jack asks the President for permission to make the exchange for Audrey and promises to destroy the circuit with C4 explosive if necessary. Palmer realizes that would mean that Jack would be killed and gives the green light.
Meanwhile back in DC, the President has a stroke on national television during a press conference and the Vice-President takes over based on the 25th Amendment. His first order is to cancel Jack's mission. Naturally, Jack complies ... NOT. He leaves Doyle by the side of the road. It's 12:00.
